Isekai No Gakusei: Students From Another World
Game in Arrest

"Darren, are you sure?" Kanrei's whisper saw Darren who was already standing firm. "We can't possibly win this fight. We're outnumbered."

Darren whispered back. "Accel is a smart man. All of this I did was just for threats" Darren said "They might win, but that doesn't mean it's the victory they want."

"What do you mean?" Ask Kanrei.

"They came here just to catch me. If I can take advantage of that, the victory is in front of our eyes" Darren said.

Kanrei doesn't understand Darren's intentions, but he tries to keep up with the rhythm.

Darren walks ahead of the squad. Accel can see it.

"Darren, what are you doing?" Ravenna asked in shock.

Darren didn't answer. He just turned his head slightly and blinked his eyes while smiling a little.

"Accl!" Darren Shouts. "What you're after is me, right? I'll give up on you right now."

Accel's a little unsure about that. "What else did you play this time?"

"It's not a trick" Darren said.

Accel just looked at him suspiciously. But he had no reason to refuse his surrender. After all, the main purpose here is to catch Darren.

"How can I trust you?" Connect Accel.

Darren pulled out his sword and stuck it on the ground. He then cast a powerful magic and smashed the sword in front of everyone.

Bruack...

Everyone was shocked, even more so from Darren's side.

"Darren, what are you doing!?" Ravenna Shouts.

Darren took off his robe and took off all his fighting gear. He started walking towards Accel while handing over his belongings.

"As a form of surrender, you can have this as a guarantee" Darren said.

Accel still doesn't trust Darren. This could be one of the tricks.

"How, Accel-sama? Do we just take this gear?" Ask one of the soldiers.

"No. Just throw that thing away" Reply Accel. "That thing could have been one of his tools. We're not gonna take the risk of bringing those things with us. Just throw it to the ground."

Darren was a little surprised. But he continued to carry out his plan.

After being searched again, no strange items were found on Darren. They caught him and took him to a train.

"Before that..." Darren said, "I want you to promise not to touch this village again."

"alright. As long as you obey our orders," Reply Accel.

Darren was taken by the soldiers. All troops were pulled back to the government by escorting Darren's car in full care.

"Darren!" Shouted Ravenna, shocked by what she saw.

Darren just waved his hand while looking at it a little. He blinked a few times while smiling a little.

"M-maybe?" Ravenna said in her heart. "He's already prepared a plan for this?"

A Few Hours Later...

Darren is already quite far from the village. It's been about an hour's drive. Soon he will come out of the forest and reach the city.

Inside the same carriage, a soldier sat in front of him. He kept a close eye on Darren. Everything Darren did was always carefully watched.

Even if Darren just leaned in and started singing small out of boredom, the man immediately put his hand on his sword. And giving a look as if to warn Darren, "Do something, then I'll chop off your head."

Darren is a little annoyed with that guy, but he's getting used to it.

"We're in town!" Shouted one of the soldiers.

Darren put his head out the window. Ah right, the high city walls are already visible.

The train started to enter through the gate.

"Ah yeah, how's Fabrio doing, huh?" Darren Mumbled. "Hopefully I can see it at the gate."

Darren looked around, but there was no sign of Fabrio there.

"Eh you," Call Darren to one of the guards.

"What's up, fugitive?" Sahut scoffed.

"Is your friend here?" Connect Darren. "The one who is a little old. It looked like an om-om and her hair was a bit white. He's also the gatekeeper here. His name is Fabrio."

"I don't know who you're talking about. But even if I know, I don't want to tell a fugitive like you" the guard replied with a laugh.

"Ah, I see," said Darren. "Next time, if we meet again. I'll buy you a sword."

Entering the city, many citizens began to gather on the side of the road.

"He's that fugitive?" residents whispered as they saw Darren waving his hands on the train.

"He killed a lot of people and was waving."

Darren continued to wave his hand. With a big smile on his face, he shouted, "Thank you for welcoming me so much. I really appreciate it."

Accel, who was on the front horse, looked back. He saw Darren behaving like that made him think a little bit that he was crazy.

"It looks like he's crazy" he said. "Receiving defeat is hard."

Since the trip to the center of the kingdom was still far away, they decided to spend a short night there. Not overnight in the inn, but in the prison.

"I'm going to sleep in jail?" Ask Darren.

"No need to protest. This place suits you," Reply Accel. "You guys, bring him in. Keep an eye on him, and don't let him escape."

Darren laughed a little.

"Accel-sama, sorry I said this," said one of the soldiers. "But shouldn't you be the one guarding this fugitive yourself?"

"You mean?" Ask Accel.

"Nobody among us is as strong as you. If he breaks out, then we can all finish him off. And he will escape easily" said the soldier.

Accel frowned his chin. He thinks it's true. Taking such a big risk is not worth it just compared to sleeping uncomfortable for one night.

"All right, I'll take care of him" Accel said. "You rest, tomorrow morning we'll leave."

"Good!"

Gubrakk!!! Darren was violently thrown into prison. With his handcuffed hands and the prison room tightly closed, it would be difficult to get out of it.

Moreover, Accel watched him from behind bars by sitting on a wooden chair. He continued to watch Darren with a wary look.

"Ah, you're here too yes, Accel," Darren said.

Accel simply replied to him with an increasingly cold gaze.

"I'm glad you're here. At least, it can ensure that I won't be beaten secretly by the guards" Darren said.

"If you don't want to get beat up, then shut up" Accel said.

"Hoh, I just want to be more familiar with you" Darren replied. "Just a moment later we'll be co-workers."

"Workers?"

"Eh? Didn't I get arrested to work for you?" Darren. "You said yourself that a man as strong as myself would be useless if he were killed."

"Be quiet! Your life and death are in the hands of the king. He's the one who will decide everything later" Reply Accel.

"Then do you think I'll be killed myself?"

Accel was silent for a moment. He hadn't thought of that before.

"That's it, silence! I'm trying to rest!" Her speech.

Darren smiles. "Ah, I thought you were a friend of the king, but it turns out you don't know anything."

"Speak as you please. I won't fall into your trap" said Accel.

Darren sighed. He walked slowly to a small bed that hung on the wall and sat there.

"Yes too. I believe you won't be easy in such a wordplay" Darren said.

"What are you talking about?"

"I just think flattery is the deadliest weapon in the world" Darren said. "But you don't seem to be the type to be flattered. You're a great man"

"Such flattery won't change my outlook on you" Reply Accel.

"It's true what I said" Darren said. "Empression is one form of word play. By taking someone's heart alone, you can master the arena of combat with ease."

Accel started to tilt his head. "What are you really talking about?"

"You know, some people really like to be flattered. But there are also those who don't" Darren continued. "The people who don't like to be flattered are special people."

"You mean?"

"Ah, it's nothing. I'm just talking about useless things" Darren said with a smile.

Accel was annoyed by Darren's last reply. He kicked down the table beside his chair and stood up.

"I don't know what wordplay you just did. But, if you want to flatter someone, then say it clearly!" Her speech.

"Eh?"

"You want to flatter me, don't you? But you're too embarrassed to say it. Your ego is blocking your intentions!"

Darren surprised. He did not understand what he was saying from earlier. He was just trying to get Accel to wake up.

"At least my plan is smooth," Darren said in his heart. "He's already starting to get carried away. With this he can stay up all night."

"Then tomorrow is the time for me to make my next plan."
