Isekai No Gakusei: Students From Another World
Weight Training... Might?

Darren walked towards the library with the plate in his hand. Shiro followed him from behind carrying a glass of water.

The library door opened and Darren entered with Shiro following him. He put the food and drink on a table.

"Tomatsu's. Here, eat first" Darren said, watching Tomatsu being with Tora. But none of them responded to Darren's call.

"Whoah! I understand, Tomatsu-sama!" Tora looked enthusiastic with the book in hand, while Tomatsu beside her was pointing to one of the book's sections.

"Are they this familiar?" Darren Mumbled.

"Akhla!" Darren tried to make them aware of his presence.

Both men looked at.

"Oh, Esema-kun," Tomatsu immediately approached. He saw the food at the table and immediately ate it. "Thank you for the food."

Darren's eyebrows twitched at Tomatsu's 'Not Looking Like A Demon King' behavior'.

"So, what's the rehearsal today?" Ask Darren while crossing his arms.

"Akwu fuya wide," Tomatsu said with his mouth full.

"Hey, hey, swallow what's in your mouth first!" Darren. "After all, what's your idea?"

Tomatsu swallowed his food. "How about we practice outside this time?" Her speech. "You know, it's like walking around in the woods and looking for an opponent."

"Finding opponents? It sounds more like your hobby" Darren said with a slight laugh.

But, suddenly a question flashed through Darren's head. He was curious about the answer to this question. In front of him now, there was a Demon King. Even this one is no ordinary Demon King. Maybe he can answer this question.

"Tomatsu, I have one question for you" Darren asked.

Tomatsu turned his head while devouring a mouthful of food. He waited for Darren to continue his sentence.

"Is it possible for me to become a Demon King?" Darren.

Everyone there was surprised. Tora and Shiro looked at his master with a look of disbelief.

Tomatsu just laughed. "Where can you, fool," he said. "Which man can be the Demon King."

Darren glanced towards Tomatsu. "Then, you..."

"I'm not human" Tomatsu said. "I am the devil."

"I-Devil...yeah?" Darren said slowly. "But she looks like an ordinary woman. Does the demon race in this world look like normal humans?"

Tomatsu continued his words. "You must think I'm human, right?" He said in a mocking tone.

Then he wiped his hair and showed his head to Darren. Suddenly, a small horn appeared.

"I can manipulate my body shape" Tomatsu said as he held back his hair. "As I wish, I can turn every inch of my body into ice dust."

Darren finally understood. "just fine. He must have removed his horn so that no one would know his true identity."

Tomatsu then extended his hand and cut it right in front of Darren. His hands were out, but no blood came out at all.

"Look," Tomatsu said. "The part of the hand that was cut off actually turned into ice dust and was now scattered in the air."

Darren looked at him in admiration. "So you're immortal?"

"You can say yes, but you can say no, too" Reply Tomatsu, slowly putting his hands together again. "As a Demon King, age will no longer have any effect on my life. But, if I get killed, then I can't avoid it."

"But you can turn to dust."

"I can turn to dust only when I want to. That's kind of my style, "Tomatsu continued. "If someone suddenly stabs me in the back quickly and successfully injures my internal organs, then I will still die."

Darren nodded. It seemed like the saying from his original world also applies in other worlds. 'Nothing is immortal in this world, ' Even a Demon King lives under the auspices of death threats that can come at any time.

"Here you go, don't talk about it anymore" Tomatsu said, finishing his meal. "Let's go straight to the training ground."

Darren felt Tomatsu had planned this. "You talk as if you know where we're going" Darren said, frowning.

"Of course" Tomatsu got out of the chair. "As I recall, in the eastern part of my former kingdom, there was a dungeon. Whether it's still there or not."

"Dungeons? Ah, I know!" Tora suddenly replied. "It's a dungeon that's famous among adventurers. It was said that those who entered the dungeon would not come out alive."

Shiro immediately hid behind Darren in trembling. He knew that he would also go there, but such a place was too scary for him.

"It's just a rumor, right?" Darren. "We can't just believe wild rumors."

Darren had believed that, but he remembered. He looked towards Tomatsu.

"After all, what should we be afraid of" Darren told Tora. "Look, we have the Demon King by our side."

"I'm sorry, but I won't go with you into that dungeon" Tomatsu said quickly. "This is your practice, Darren. I'm not gonna interfere."

Darren sighed as if he knew this was going to happen. Tomatsu must be just looking for excuses because he is too lazy to teach.

"It is not suitable to be a teacher" said Darren.

"But, Dar-Esema-sama. Aren't you supposed to be next to the General today?" Shiro was still hiding behind Darren.

Darren thought, "Ah, right too. Should I take a leave of absence, huh?"

"Working?" Ask Schlaff in his office.

Darren nodded.

"Yes, I don't care anyway" Schaff said, "But who is this woman?" He asked while pointing at Tomatsu.

Tomatsu. Proudly he replied, "I'm Tomatsu. One of the seven Raj-"

Darren instantly silenced his mouth with his hand.

"He's my teacher," Darren cut in with an awkward smile. "He's the one who's gonna oversee my training."

Schlaff looked unsure. He narrowed his eyes and began to pay close attention to Tomatsu. But in the end he didn't care.

"Hmph, okay. As long as Esema-dono believes it, I will also believe it" Schlaff said. "You can take a day off today. Make sure you practice well, Esema-dono."

Darren smiled as he nodded. He bowed respectfully and permission to step aside.

"Why did you shut my mouth suddenly!?" Tomatsu protests so out of Schlaff's office. His face turned red, like an angry person.

"Are you stupid, huh?" Reply Darren. "If he finds out about your identity as the Demon King, then he will definitely catch you."

Tomatsu continued to frown on his way out of the castle. His face that looks like mbak-mbak instead looks funny with his expression that is sulking.

Darren even kept trying to hold back the laughter every time he saw her face.

The four of them finally arrived at the castle exit gate. That made Darren wonder about one thing.

"Hey, Tomatsu," he called slowly, "The Dungeon is still far away, right?"

Tomatsu. "Yes" he answered briefly.

"You said that the dungeon was near Erfroren, right?"

"Yes." Yeah."

Darren looked around. Then he took a long breath.

"Then, why don't we use horses!?" Say it out loud.

Tomatsu only screech while scratching his head. "Suppose this is your practice" he said with a strange grin. "You'll have to use your own legs to get there."

Darren's actually not that much of a problem with that. He used to go back and forth through the forest and mountains just on foot. But the problem is time.

Walking with a horse of course makes travel time faster and more efficient. After all, he believed Tora and Shiro were more expecting to ride horses than to walk.

Darren sighed. "At least you'll be walking with us too, right?"

Tomatsu laughed as he spread his tongue. "Of course not" he said, turning half of his body into dust. "I'll drive with the wind."

Darren saw Tomatsu disappear carried away by the wind blowing with an annoyed face.

"I'll wait for you there. The spirit!" Tomatsu said as he disappeared.

"OOO!! Don't be so dong!" Darren Shouts. "Basic teacher kamprett!"

Tora and Shiro just patted the eel looking at their behavior.
