Physics The Greatest Magic

"Since you're single, how about we get engaged?" 

Hearing this, John unintentionally let out the words 

"What?" 

Suddenly, the attention of the two, turned to John who was on the other side of the door. 

[Engage? Serena... And him?] 

"Huh? John, when did you arrive?" Serena asked 

She wore a long silver dress which matched the colour of her soothing silky long hair. She even wore cosmetics which brought out the full extent of her natural beauty. She didn't wear a hat, but her hair was long enough to cover her ears as they weren't visible. 

There was no doubt in John's mind that she looked beautiful, she reminded him of the moon. But as much as he wanted to continue to appreciate it, his mind was filled with confusion 

"Just now..." 

John wanted to say something, but kept quiet before he glanced over at the boy who had asked Serena to get engaged. He wore a white clean suit with polished shoes. He also had a calm and independent air to him. Long blonde hair, which was tied up in a pony tail at the back, along with oceanic blue eyes. 

Tall, and was most likely around his 16s or 17s. John had no doubt that this man was popular with the girls, and judging by the situation, he was making a move on Serena. 

John hung his head for a moment, as he tried to think about how to deal with this, but he couldn't come to any conclusion. 

Serena who noticed John's sudden weird act, realised that he might have been misunderstanding something. 

"Wait, John, it's not what it looks like, he-" 

Before Serena could finish, the man interrupted as he got closer and asked 

"Are you a friend of Serena's? I'm sorry, but could you please give us some time alone?" The boy asked 

"What? There's no need for tha-" 

Serena was interrupted once again, as the boy asked 

"Unless, there's a reason you can't?" 

[...Modero] Translation: Slow down 

Time slowed down to around 0.5x it's normal speed, it was like watching a movie in slow motion, but none of that matters, all John needed right now was time. 

He needed to think about what exactly he had to do. 

[Cancel] 

Serena was starting to get annoyed from being interrupted so deeply and John who heard this, took in a deep breath before letting it out 

A smile was formed in his face as he ignored and walked past the guy before standing right in front of serena. 

[Keep your cool, keep your cool, keep your cool] 

He held on to her hand lowering down to one knee, and as he did so, he moved his head closer and closer to her hand. 

Before Serena had even realised it, John had given her backhand a kiss before saying. 

"Hey, your beauty's stands out as always." 

"Eh?!" Serena unintentionally let out before backing away 

Her face was bright red, she never expected John to be this straightforward, and for some reason, he looked even manlier today. She wasn't sure if it was the suit or the air around him, but she was surprised. 

John ignored Serena's reaction before getting up and turning to the man who had a displeased expression all over his face. 

"I apologise if my party member has caused you any trouble, but we'll be taking our leave now, unless there's something you wish to discuss with him?" John asked before turning to serena 

Serena who heard this, suddenly snapped back into reality before saying 

"Huh? Ah... Right. Adam, thank you for the offer, but... I'm an adventurer, I travel around and I love exploring the world, so getting engaged to a noble right now would be very restricting... And also..." 

Serena suddenly glanced at John who had his eyes closed with a self-satisfied smile face as she said 

"There's this idiot and a cheerful party I have to take care of, so I'll have to decline." 

Right after she said that, John moved up to her before grabbing on to her hand and saying 

"Let's go." 

"An adventurer huh... So you were both commoners? Tch, how disgusting. I can't believe I suggested such a thing to a pile of dirt... Go enjoy and die in your little adven-" 

The boy suddenly stopped as he felt a chill go down his spine. Confused he looked around and noticed John smiling at him. It was a smile and yet it felt like there was a scythe placed right in front of his neck. 

"Why'd you stop? Go on." Serena asked as she began doing some stretches mainly around her arm on her dress. 

"Serena, what are you doing?" John asked 

"Nothing, I just want to get a little closer to hear what he has to say. Don't try and stop me." She said as she was about to walk up to him. 

"Stop you? It's between you and him, don't mind me." John muttered with a smile that showed that he could already tell what was about to happen 

[Beating up a noble would be bad, but it should be fine as long as there isn't any evidence] John thought to himself 

Intimidated by Serena's sudden change in attitude, the boy took a step back 

"Y-You know well who I am, just try and hurt me, I dare you." 

"Hurt you? I just want to hear what you have to say. What were you saying about us being a pile of dirt and disgusting?" 

Having found a little confidence, the Adam quickly replied 

"You heard me, I said go enjoy your fake adventures with him and go meet the tragic end which you deserve. Y-You're both trash." 

The smile in John's face disappeared and turned an expressionless glare which was sent straight towards the boy. Seeing this, the boy shut up completely. 

"How disappointing. I expected you to be a lot different than this, but I guess it was all an act. Also, I'll say this now. It's your mouth so you have every right to say what you'd like. I don't care, about what you call me, but watch what you say about my friend." 

John could feel the pressure which Serena let out just as she said those words, and it made him feel quite pleased.
