Isekai No Gakusei: Students From Another World
Meeting Old Friends

Step by step, Darren was setting his feet on the moist forest plains. The number of mosses and also vines that grow in the ground, making Darren's feet a little heavy.

The arrow wound on his leg still felt a little sore. In addition, he had to spend more energy just to step.

"The arrow looks poisonous. Although heal magic managed to treat my leg, but the pain was still lingering," Gerrutu Darren.

Tree by tree, Darren had already walked quite a distance into the forest. In this kind of condition, he had always hoped not to encounter monsters.

If you look back, it looks like the soldiers of Europe are no longer within his reach. At least he could feel a little more relieved.

"Fabrio said I had to keep going north" Darren told him. "From the way he talks, he seems to be a good person. I think I can trust him."

As Darren was thinking about it, suddenly a bunch of Lizardmen emerged from behind the bushes. About six people.

"Haha! We got the mangs..." Suddenly the Lizardmen stopped. "Wait, you're not..."

"What's up, Kanrei? Do you know him?" Ask another Lizardmen.

"Yes, he was the man I was telling you about at the time" replied the Lizardmen, who was named Kanrei.

Darren looked at them. Even though he knew they remembered him, he kept trying to stay alert.

Kanrei also saw Darren who was moaning in pain while holding his leg which looked fine.

"Don't you, did your leg get poisoned?" Kanrei said as he approached Darren. "Have you treated her?"

Darren nodded slowly. "It has. But it still hurts."

"It looks like it's Fatal Poison. Although it has been treated though, the effects of the pain will be quite painful for a long time," said Kanrei.

Kanrei said to his friends, "You guys, let's take this guy to the village."

"Good!" Say them simultaneously.

Darren can only follow the groove. He did not know what would happen in the Lizardmen village. But it's better if he doesn't fight.

Arrived at Lizardmen village. Darren, who was still in Kanrei's arms, was taken to the largest house. The other is the Village Hall.

There's a white Lizardmen. Maybe if in Darren's place of origin, such a creature is called an Albino.

"What's up Kanrei? Why did you bring humans here?" Said the white Lizardmen as they saw Darren and Kanrei enter.

"Chairman, he's the man I told you about before" Kanrei replied. "His leg had been poisoned by Fatal Poison. Can you cure it?"

Without asking further, the white Lizardmen immediately agreed.

The Lizardmen then told Darren to sit down in front of him. Darren followed.

"The Fatal Poison revocation process will suck up your mana as well. Aren't you in trouble with that?" Ask the white Lizardmen.

"Yes. I don't have a problem with that" Darren replied.

Suddenly the Lizardmen stood up and bit Darren's leg with its fangs. Darren was surprised, but he remained silent. Although it hurt, but he was sure that the Lizardmen had no other purpose.

Before long, Darren felt his body grow weak. His mana was sucked, but simultaneously, the pain from the poison disappeared.

After a long time, the white Lizardmen released their bite. Now, the pain in Darren's leg is completely gone. But he began to feel heavy fatigue.

"You'd better take him to rest" said the white Lizardmen. "Losing too much Mana can be harmful to the body."

"Okay" replied Kanrei.

But Darren refused. "no need. I can do it myself" he said.

The two Lizardmen were silent in confusion.

Darren sat back down and formed a meditative position. As usual, all of his mana was filled up again as before.

The two Lizardmen were also agape.

"W-what really happened?" The white Lizardmen. "Skill this. This is an undead skill!"

"But if he is an undead, he should be immune to poison" Kanrei said. "Who is this guy really?"

Darren then moved from his seat. He already feels better.

"Thank you very much for your help. Now I'm doing better" Darren said with a smile.

"Ah, yes. Doesn't matter. I want to meet you, too" said the white Lizardmen.

"Before, let me introduce myself. My name is Kaido, the head of this Lizardmen village," the white Lizardmen continued.

"Owh, so it is," Darren said. "Are you an albino?"

"Did?" Kaido and Kanrei were suddenly startled.

"Where do you know that word?" Ask Kaido.

"Eh? Did I say it wrong?" Darren shut his mouth.

"Well, it's okay. But how do you know that name?" Connect Kaido.

"Name?"

"In the history of monsters, Albino was a monster god who had holy power. He had an all-white stature, and his strength was extremely high. He is respected by many monsters" Kaido explained. "I am a descendant of the Albino. That's why I have powers that no other Lizardmen have."

"And that's why you're the Chairman of this village?" Connect Darren.

"Yes," answered Kaido. "Where do you know that?"

"When about where I know that name. That's because..." Darren. "I knew it from school."

"School?" Say Kaido and Kanrei together.

"Yes, school. Wait, there's no school?" Darren.

"school? Is that school?" Ask Kanrei.

"Ah, school is a place where you teach about something" Darren explained.

"So in 'Your School', you learned about the Albino God?"

"Um. yes, that is," Darren said with a smile and scratched his head.

Because it has been there long enough, Darren was also permission to continue his journey. But because it was night, Darren was asked to spend the night there.

"Sorry if I'm sassy. But, may I know your name?" Kanrei asked while driving her to a house. "I wanted to ask you this a long time ago."

"Your style of speaking is too formal. Relax a little bit" Darren said. "My name is Darren. Nice to meet you."

"Darren..yeah? Can I call you Darren-sama?" Kanrei.

"I told you, don't be so formal. And call me Darren" replied Darren. "Take me like your friend."

"Eh? What and-do you mind?" Ask Kanrei. "Friendship with a monster, it can ruin your reputation."

"I have no problem with that" Darren said. "For me, reputation is not everything. I don't care how other people look at me. I'm tired of their nature."

Kanrei continued, "Then how did you get Fatal Poison?"

"One of the Erobernese soldiers shot me with a poisoned arrow" Darren replied.

"Royal Army? Did you commit a crime in town?"

"It's actually because I killed all their troops."

Kanrei gulped. He began to murmur about how powerful this person he was talking to was.

"Yes. It happened because they were trying to catch animal humans and wanted to make them slaves" Darren said. "I can't stay silent."

Kanrei just fell silent. He seemed to realize that something had happened to Darren. He also tried to change the topic.

"Then how's your girlfriend?" Ask Kanrei. "I want to apologize to him for what happened back then."

Darren suddenly stopped walking. He lowered his head.

While Kanrei just kept silent because he was confused by what happened. He seemed to be beginning to realize how many things he did not know.

"Yuzuna-.san," said Darren slowly. "It's gone."

Kanrei surprised.

"W-what? Does it have anything to do with the Erobernesian army?" Kanrei.

"really. They killed him, along with two other friends of mine" Darren said.

Kanrei realized that his question had already ruined the atmosphere. He asked questions he shouldn't have asked.

"I-I'm sorry. I didn't know you were grieving" Kanrei said.

"Yes, it's okay. It's not your fault" Darren replied.

Darren arrives at a house. It turned out that the house was one of the houses of the villagers. They voluntarily loaned their room to Darren.

Kanrei then left Darren there. It also leaves all the needs of Darren to the homeowner.

The house is quite small. The room has only one. The family itself has only two members. An older sister and her younger brother.

Darren felt bad to live there. If he sleeps in the room, where will the two brothers sleep?

Sob.. sob. suddenly the brother pulled the sleeve of Darren's shirt. If you look around, the little boy may be the same age as a Kindergarten child.

"Pardon me, adventurer sir. My sister didn't mean to bother you, " said the older brother as he immediately pulled his sister's arm.

The older brother himself looks like a teenage Junior High.

"It's okay. I'm sorry for bothering you too" Darren replied.

"Ah, no. We are just following Kaido-sama's orders" said the older brother.

"By the way, do you have a name?" Ask Darren. "It would be difficult if we chat later without getting to know each other."

"M-chatting? Is that okay?"

"Of course not. What's wrong with me chatting with you," Darren said. "Did you know, my name is Darren."

"I'm Riuku, and my sister Takara."

"alright. Nice to meet you," Ucal Darren smiled.

After tidying up his belongings, Darren returned to meet the two brothers. Because it was night, and they invited Darren to eat.

The food served is actually far from the standard of human food. That may be because they are Lizardmen, so they may have a different taste to the human tongue.

"D-meat...raw?" Darren said when he saw on his plate there was a fresh meat. "Did you guys really eat this?"

"Yes. Don't you like it?" Ask Riuku.

"It's not that I don't like it, but raw meat is not good for health" Darren said.

"really? But we always eat this every day" Riuku replied.

Darren stood up. If you look around, the house does not have a kitchen. There was only a living room and dining table in the same place.

"Raw meat like this could contain a lot of bacteria, such as Salmonella, E.**** , Shigella, to Staphylococcus aureus."

"Maybe for Lizardmen like them, it's not a problem. But to me, it's a serious matter."

"If you are not lucky, there is a possibility that the bacteria will be swallowed. And then it causes serious health problems."

Darren tried to take the initiative. He went out of the house with food on his plate. Riuku and Takara who saw it also began to be curious. Make them follow him from behind.

On that silent night, Darren made a fire using his magic and placed it on the wood. He then stabbed the meat with a long wooden stick.

"Well, if this is the case, I can cook it" Darren said. "So remember the Scouts."

On top of the fire, Darren started twirling his Flesh slowly and evenly. He was witnessed by two brothers.

"Darren-sama, what are you doing?" Ask Riuku.

"I'm cooking" Darren replied.

"Cooking?" Riotu.

"Yes. Have you ever cooked a meal?" Darren.

"Only Kaido-sama can use fire magic, so only he has ever eaten cooked food" Riuku replied.

"Then, do you want to try it too?" Darren. "I can cook it for you."

A wide smile was painted on the faces of Riuku and her sister. This is the first time they have eaten cooked food.

Name. nom... The two Lizardmen brothers seemed to enjoy Darren's cooking. He just burned it without giving any spice.

"It's so good, Onee-san," Takara said.

"Yes, it's much tastier than raw meat" Riuku replied.

"It was just burnt meat. If I could add some spice, it would probably be even more delicious" Darren said.

After finishing dinner, Riuku and Takara approached Darren.

"Thank you for the food, Darren-sama," said the two of them while bowing their heads.

"Ah, yes. Doesn't matter. I'm happy if you like it" Darren replied. "If you want, I can cook again for breakfast tomorrow."

Happy faces appeared on their faces. For their part, eating burnt meat alone was like eating a luxurious meal. It made Darren sad.

"These Lizardmen had never tasted cooked food before. Humans elsewhere can feel it every day."

Darren then held onto his chin. He thought of making all the Lizardmen taste the delicious ripe meat.

"*Can I cook that much?"

"I think can. As long as the materials and tools are adequate*."

Suddenly Takara called Darren. "Darren-sama, do you want to stay here any longer?"

Darren. He does not want to disappoint those who are full of hope. "Maybe I'll stay for a few more days" he replied. "And as long as I'm here, I'll keep cooking for you guys."

Riuku and Takara are getting excited. "Thank you, Darren-sama," said the two of them simultaneously.

"Yes, you're welcome" Darren said. "And as long as I'm here, you should call me Darren."

"Darren?"

"Yup. At least, just think of me as your friend."

Today was a great day for Darren. He almost forgot about his own sadness.

Unexpectedly Lizardmen who are considered disgusting by other humans, can bring happiness to Darren.

"I'll make them live decent lives. A life in which every child will laugh and parents can live quietly without war."
