Isekai No Gakusei: Students From Another World
The Ice Floor Fight

"Who are you?" Darren said while on standby.

"My name is Taiji Kuroba. The best fighter of the Erobernesian kingdom," Taiji replied as he walked towards Darren.

"Then, what's your business here?" Reply Darren.

"Of course to catch you" said Taiji who then pulled out his sword. "If you give up now, then you don't have to feel the pain of this sword."

"I'm sorry, unfortunately I refused" Darren said confidently. "I refuse to be arrested, and refuse to lose."

"Ho. ho. so be it," replied Taiji as he straightened his sword. "Then, be prepared to feel the pain of this slash of my sword."

Taiji immediately attacked quickly without further ado. Darren was even a little surprised at his speed.

"A-so fast. Its speed is equivalent to the speed of sound. It'll be hard for me to keep up with it."

Stab! Stab! Stab! Before Darren realized it, several parts of his body had already been injured. He was in pain and trying to heal himself, but now was not the right time.

"If I use heal now, then he could just attack me while I'm busy healing myself. I'd better hold the pain for a while."

"How can you feel it?" Taiji said as he continued to move there to here. "My speed is equivalent to the speed of sound. There's no way you can read my moves."

"Damn," Darren grumbled as he continued to hold onto his wound. If he keeps this up, then he can lose. He has to do something.

"Aah! I have an idea," he said.

Seeing Taiji keep moving, it was indeed very troublesome. Moreover, the movement is very far above the average speed of ordinary humans. But Darren could see some weakness in his movement.

"Non-elemental Spell: Weather Modification!" Darren shouted his creation spell.

Instantly, the weather turned very dark. Heavy rain fell very quickly, making all areas wet.

Taiji, who is still moving here and there, was surprised to see Darren's weather-changing magic.

"The magic of weather-changing? I've never seen this before" Taiji said. "But this won't change things!"

Darren laughs. Actually, this weather-altering magic was only the beginning of his plan.

"Ice Elemental: Proximity Freze!" Darren.

A cold chill spread around the area around Darren and made everything that was wet become frozen. In an instant, the trees, shrubs, and tree branches, had already crystallized and become slippery.

Slipp... Taiji who was still jumping found his footing turning to ice. He slipped until he fell to the hard ground.

"Hows it? With a slippery footing like this, you won't be able to move easily" Darren said confidently.

"Damn, I got hit by the trap. I was forced to use my Frost Walker magic" Gerru Taiji stood up.

"Non-elemental Spell: Frost Walker," Taiji continued as he positioned his foot.

"Frost Walker, huh? Ice slippery antidote magic. Makes the user can walk normally on ice like walking on the ground. But..." Darren said in his heart.

"Frost walker will sacrifice 50% percent of the speed of its users. If this affects Taiji m** then the speed of movement should only be limited to ordinary humans when on ice."

"This means my plan worked."

Darren launches his attack on Taiji who is still adjusting.

"Thunder Elemental: Thunder Storm!"

A thick cloud enveloped the sky. Creating a thunder with a very strong magic power.

"What the fuck? It's the same magic as Raiko's, '" said Ravenna, who is still attached.

Instantly, the area was filled with lightning strikes at all points. Taiji, who had been unable to move as agilely as before, had difficulty dodging any lightning that appeared.

Jederr!!! Jeddarr!!! Several times Taiji was hit by lightning. "Damn. So this is the plan," Ucao Taiji while enduring the pain.

"So how does it feel? Is this only the ability of the greatest fighter of Europe?" Darren said in a high tone.

"You fuckin. You have killed all the Erobernesian troops" Taiji replied.

"Those who start it all are your own!" Reply Darren loudly. "That's the reward for what you did!"

Realizing he was cornered. Taiji tried to find a gap to fight back.

Moving at high speed is impossible under these circumstances. Using light magic might be a good idea, but considering that he was constantly being attacked made him unable to do so.

Dodging Darren's attack, Taiji realizes that Ravenna is nearby.

"I can use it" Taiji said in his heart.

Quickly, Taiji approached Ravenna. Ravenna who thought she would be saved, showed her happy face. But...

"Give up, or I'll kill this woman!" Suddenly Taiji holds Ravenna hostage who cannot move. He stuck his sword right around Ravenna's neck, ready to scratch her.

Ravenna and Darren were both shocked. No one expected this to happen.

"Oh no. I forgot that Ravenna was still there."

Darren tried to read the atmosphere. When viewed from Taiji's facial features, it seems like he was really serious about killing Ravenna.

From Ravenna's own face, she looks very shocked and panicked. They didn't plan this. This is Taiji's dirty trick.

"Stop that!" Darren. "What are you holding her hostage for? Isn't he your ally?"

"At least don't involve anyone else in this fight!" Darren said desperately.

"I don't care. My job is to bring you. Whatever the risk," Taiji said. "After all, I have nothing to do with this woman. Killing him is no big deal to me."

"Damn, I'm stuck in this situation again. The circumstances in which one's life is at stake." Darren's grouse in the heart.

"Down your sword, kneel on the ground, and surrender. Then this woman will be fine" Threatened Taiji who did not seem to play games.

Darren had trouble deciding at first. But he finally threw his sword on the ground, and began to kneel.

Ravenna who saw him became shocked. "You, why are you doing that?" He wonders.

Darren just smiled at him. "Hopefully from this you can learn. That one's life is precious" Darren replied.

Ravenna's eyes sparkled.

"good. Now get down and put your hands behind your back!" Taiji.

Darren can only obey. He immediately took a position to face down. But suddenly...

"Elemental Water Cutter!" It was Kanrei who appeared with the Lizardmen.

A sharp wave of water launches from the air, forcing Taiji to take his grip off Ravenna.

"Darren, are you okay?" Kanrei asked as she approached Darren.

"Yes, I'm fine" Darren replied as he stood up.

"I'm sorry if I'm late. But anyway, it's your fault. You're not taking us with you" Kanrei said as he positioned his spear.

"Yes, yes, sorry. I just don't want to bother you guys" Darren replied.

The Lizardmen army that arrived consisted of about thirty tails. Enough to fight Taiji who is alone.

"Then this is the case, I won't be able to win" Taiji said in his heart. "They are too many. It's better if I back off for now."

Taiji immediately stood up and straightened his body.

"You're lucky today I'm tired" he said with a high heart. "If not, I might have flattened all of you. So, I'm freeing you guys for now."

Taiji immediately reached his hand into his pocket. He was seen holding a ball and throwing it to the ground.

A thick smoke suddenly appeared enveloping him. By the time the smoke cleared, Taiji was gone.

"Huff. You coward," said Kanrei.

Quickly, Kanrei and the Lizardmen began to take action to secure the adventurers who were under the effects of Sleep.

Darren approaches Ravenna with four eyes.

"You okay?" Darren asked worriedly. "Did he really scratch his sword?"

Ravenna just shook her head. But there was a slight wound to his neck. It only takes the form of a small scratch.

"Heal," Darren cast a healing spell on the wound.

"Why are you doing this?" Ask Ravenna quietly. "When you're a criminal, but you're doing me good."

"I am a criminal in their eyes, but not in the eyes of the people I have helped" Darren replied.

"So, are you actually a criminal or a hero?" Connect Ravenna.

"Truth is just a matter of perspective. Everyone has their own perspective, and they don't look at it from just one point of view" Darren said. "You are also free to determine your own perspective."

Ravenna. Then Darren removes his Binding spell, and releases Ravenna.

"Then, what are you gonna do? Are you going back to town?" Ask Darren.

"Looks like. I have a sister that I can't leave for too long" replied Ravenna.

"Ah, yes. Having a sister is sometimes troublesome," Reply Darren.

"Yes, that's right" said Ravenna with a gloomy face. "My sister is suffering from a rare disease that doctors in the city cannot cure."

"Eh?" Darren surprised.

"Every day, he has to take medicine to survive" Ravenna said. "My job as an adventurer is to save her."

Darren becomes uncomfortable with Ravenna. He hopes to help.

"But you saved me. That means you saved my sister's life too" Ravenna said. "Thank you very much. I owe you."

"Ah, yes. No problem," Darren replied awkwardly. "If I may, can I see your sister?"

"Eh?" Ravenna held her head up.

"Well, maybe I can help or something" Darren continued. "Or maybe I'll cure him."

Ravenna's eyes are shining. A flash of hope light flashed in his eyes, and tears began to flow slowly.

Unexpectedly behind the cold nature of a tough adventurer like him, there is a weak nature that always hopes.

"I'll try."
