How To Survive In A Isekai World [On Break]

"Well done, well done! Who knew that the sissy would save the day and become a hero?"

A group of people emerged from the dark shade of the trees. Everyone present was shocked to see them here and nobody uttered a word till Jafar suddenly exclaimed:

"You- you all are here as well?!"

Two people stormed up to Sasha and ended up in a big group hug. Sasha was the first to start crying when she saw them but the others followed after her as well.

"Of course we are here you dirty idiot! Why else are we standing here in front of you? Do you think we are sightseeing?", answered the boy who stood in front of the opposing group in a mocking tone.

He had blond hair and blue eyes but wore the same uniform as everyone else as well. He stood in an upright manner, c.h.e.s.t puffed out and with his head held high. One needed only a single glance to recognise confidence pouring out of every inch of his body.

"Who are you calling an idiot, you smug looking prick?", Jafar felt agitated at suddenly being called out for no reason.

"Stop! Both of you! We have more serious things to handle here than some childish quarells! I would have expected more from you Vincent!", scolded them Anastasia with creased eyebrows.

"I am sorry Class President, but seeing that foreign dog made me want to puke out, so I couldn't hold myself back!"

"Yes, you are absolutely right! I am still restraining myself but it gets worse with every passing second!", now another boy to Vincent's side joined in.

"Panda, you son of b€%&! When I am finished with you, you will look even worse than a fu%&ing homeless dog!"

"Watch your language! We are civilised people after all! I simply can't imagine how you got into our school for gifted children with a behaviour like that! Surely, they must have made a mistake!", countered Vincent.

"At least I didn't have to bribe the people there with my parent's money like a certain someone!"

"Because your parents don't have any money to begin with, you poor dog!"

"STOP!!!ALL OF YOU! Or I swear I am gonna make you cry for not listening!", Vincent, Panda and Jafar flinched back when they heard this. Anastasia usually held a cold and rational demeanor in school but when such incidents broke out, nobody would want to experience the consequences of her retaliation.

Her father heavily doted on her and didn't spare any costs to make her train in martial arts so that she could defend herself when in danger. She wasn't yet strong enough to defeat stronger a.d.u.l.ts but taking on several of her male classmates was as easy as flipping her hands.

The boy's were scared shitless and easily agreed to avoid this catastrophe.

Sieg heaved a sigh in relieve and felt grateful for having Anastasia on their team. He neither had the energy nor the power to stop them from arguing. If the situation escalated any further he might have bashed his head against a tree as to avoid listening to their continued bickering.

All in all six people had joined their group.

Vincent was the spear-head of that group. He was very popular in school and also personally liked to bask in the attention of the people around him. He might have become the Class President instead if it wasn't for his rude behaviour and attitude towards middle eastern people, Jafar was one amongst many he always had to argue with. His family was rich and his parents were famed actors in the whole country. But rumours went around that they had racist tendencies especially towards people from the middle eastern countries. Of course everything was denied publicly but who knows the truth? As for Jafar's claim about Vincent bribing his way into the school. Only the principal might know the truth.

The 'Goethe School for International and Gifted Children' was a highschool with high and stringent requirements of enrolment. Applicants had to go through several rounds of tests and show special skills in at least one kind of a field, wether it be scientific or artistic or rethoric or etc.. Like its name implies, only the gifted were welcomed. But that's also the reason for its high prestige amongst the general population and every year tens of thousands of young students tried their luck to get in. The background and financial situation of the student's family wasn't a factor that was considered in the process, but maybe some generous donations were made and some generous favours were returned. What happened behind the scenes, stayed behind the scenes. At least the reputation of the school didn't dwindle down but increased every year.

The test results weren't made public and only confirmations or rejections were sent out to the recipients. That's why one couldn't always be sure about the legitimacy of such statements.

Panda behaved like Vincent's lackey and followed him around everywhere at anytime. It would be rare to see him alone and not at Vincent's side. His acceptance into the school was also questionable and could be argued about. He didn't really stand out as a bright one. He was more like a leech of Vincent's fame and popularity and Vincent just accepted him as one of his followers.

Then there was Tony with an anxious look in his eyes. He was a natural gifted athlete and had a strong tall body to show off. If he had a beard on his face, people might have mistaken him as an a.d.u.l.t instead. His short dark blond hair reminded one of soldiers and he once joked that he did it for less air resistance when running tracks.

On the girl's side, there were Gene, Claire and Charlotte.

Gene had black long hair and green eyes. She was rather quite and shy in classes but had a friendly attitude towards the others. Especially towards Claire and Sasha who were her best friends.

Claire had a long blond ponytail and blue eyes. She wasn't very noticeable or remarkable in classes and lessons but one should know that the school not only tested knowledge but also the personality and social skills of its applicants. She was very peaceful and never showed signs of agitation or aggression. She rather tried to solve problems and arguments. Many conflicts in class had been resolved thanks to her nice and bright nature.

Charlotte had cut her hair short and dyed them fire red. She had some piercings on her ears as well and if she was old enough, she would have probably already asked her parents to let her have tattoos. All in all she behaved like a tomboy and also had some quarrels with the school so that she was allowed to wear the boy's trousers. Ultimately she was still denied that request. She was also trained in athletics but her main specialties lied in acrobatic gymnastics.

Contrary to her wild nature she liked to hang around Claire the most.

Tony was the first to come forward when the situation calmed down and asked worriedly around:

"Have any of you seen my brother? He wasn't with us when we woke up and I also couldn't find him around the woods here!"

His fraternal twin brother Owen, was more weakly and looked frail when in direct comparison to Tony, but seriously though who wouldn't?

Anastasia explained their situation to them of when they woke up and ended up meeting Jean and the other's. Vincent's group seemed to have been standing at the edge of the field somewhere hidden by the shadows and watched the beginning of the scene play out. But they were surprised to find out how Sieg and the rest managed to overwhelm Gorst. They looked down in embarrassment and guilt and apologized as they hadn't done anything in the slightest to help them get out of the situation. Sieg didn't blame them too much. After all Gorst was a dangerous and grown a.d.u.l.t. Recklessly fighting their way head on would have only caused unnecessary casualties.

"I am sorry Tony but I haven't seen him yet", said Anastasia to him.

Jafar and Sieg agreed as well. But when Jean and the rest were up they had troubled expressions on their faces.

"Have you seen him?! Please tell me, I have to know!", begged Tony.

Jean wanted to say something, but Sasha interrupted him:

"It was me! They went away because of me!", she said and cried out loud again.

The others looked at her confused and Jean picked up again:

"We woke up together. Your brother was with us as well as several others of our classmates and our teacher Professor Schneider. Sasha's legs started hurting and Craig and me decided to stay with her here to take a break. The others wanted to look further ahead to find out more information about our current location. Yet they haven't returned since. And after a while ... well you know what happened."

Silence spread amongst them. Now they were here, together stuck in an unknown place without any guidance or a.d.u.l.ts or clues about what they should do next. Nobody wanted to be the first, but Jafar still did it and asked hesitatingly:

"Well, what do we do now?"
