Reincarnated as a Failed Villain: Fallen Angel

Lucas and Sarah arrived at the school half an hour later. It was a three-storey red-brick building, and in front of it was a statue of the current King - Thomas.

"This is King Thomas?" Lucas pointed his finger at the statue. The statue was about five metres tall, and it showed Thomas in his royal robes and his cat ears.

"D-Don't point your finger... Rude!" Sarah warned as she stood between the statue of King Thomas and Lucas.

"Ah? Then answer me." Lucas demanded, without pulling his finger away from Sarah.

"Humph. Yes. It is King Thomas." Sarah pouted.

Sarah's annoyed face suddenly made Lucas laugh for some reason. Even he raised his brows when he realised.

"W-what's funny?" Sarah asked, lowering her eyes. The 'I did something funny' sounded again in her mind. But realisation overwhelmed this thought.

"Wait. Lucas... What happened to your memories?" She asked, taking Lucas with both hands. There was worry on her face, which was reflected in her trembling lips.

"I hit my head a couple of days ago..." Lucas said, awkwardly avoiding eye contact. He couldn't say that he'd reincarnated on another magic-free planet after all, and different memories had taken over.

Sarah opened her eyes wide in anger. She knew that someone was responsible for Lucas' injury and clenched her fists tightly and asked.

"Who were they?"

"Huh?" Lucas was confused.

"Who hurt you?" Sarah's pink eyes burned with anger, and she squeezed Lucas's hand tightly.

"Uh... It hurts." Lucas mumbled, hoping she would let go of his hand and calm down.

"I'm sorry..." she gasped as she let go of Lucas' hand.

Lucas laughed again. 'She's so predictable.' Lucas thought, shaking his head with a smile.

"No one hurt me." Lucas said reassuring Sarah, who was still staring at Lucas, hoping he would tell her who his abusers were.

"It was just an accident, my own fault." Lucas chuckled, pretending everything was fine.

Lucas could tell who his abusers were, but if he did, they would tell him about Lucas' aggression and changed behaviour. And he really didn't want some assholes to start hanging around because Lucas was able to stand up to someone with magic powers.

"I-I understand..." Sarah said, mumbling. She had a smile on her face, because there was a chance to show Lucas around the school.

"Did..." She wanted to offer to take Lucas to class, and show him around the school grounds during breaks. However, Lucas interrupted her.

"Could you take me to the classroom?" He asked, as if he had read Sarah's mind.

"Whoa." Sarah gasped in surprise and delight.

"And maybe show me around the school during breaks?" Lucas asked, realizing he would need a guide. What he knew from the was street addresses. And the design of the school was unknown to Lucas.

"Sure." Sarah said, taking Lucas by the hand and leading him towards the entrance. However, Darwin Sedric stood in their way. A blond with different eyes; one blue, the other dark brown.

"H-Hero?" Lucas said under his nose after recognizing the eyes. Lucas tried to keep the mana from escaping. 'Not now... Not here...' Lucas muttered to himself like it was a mantra.

"Are you Lucas Ciffer?" He asked, pointing a finger at Lucas.

"Why would I answer that?" Lucas asked. His mana was slowly bubbling up, but Lucas managed to keep its form from materializing.

Suddenly, Darwin pointed his palm at Lucas, and created a red mana ball. The students began to gather around them and watch what was happening. Darwin had a smug smile on his face.

"Don't you want to answer? Like a magic-less loser, you dare." Darwin said, winking at Sarah.

"And who are you..." He asked, but he didn't like Sarah's answer.

"Your nightmare." Sarah's pink eyes glittered, and she found herself standing in front of Darwin. Sarah covered her fist in a bright steaming grey layer of mana. She was about to punch Darwin in the face.

"Y-You..." Darwin raised his eyebrows, not expecting the girl to hit him. But as soon as he said the word, Sarah punched him in the face. The sound of the impact reverberated through the courtyard and Darwin hit the wall, fainting.

"I couldn't control myself..." Sarah said to herself as she stared at her bloody fist, then looked at Darwin, whose face was a bloody mess.

"I didn't mean to break his jaw..." she said, turning to Lucas.

"You... You definitely didn't just break his jaw." Lucas said, laughing, his mana subsiding.

Around them, students whispered amongst themselves, others giggled. But when Sarah looked at them, they dispersed, not wanting to meet the same fate as Darwin.

Lucas looked at Darwin again and asked Sarah if she knew him. He had only one question; was this guy a hero?

"Do you know who he is?" Lucas pointed his finger at Darwin.

"Y-Yes. He's from another class." Sarah said with a sigh.

'You're going to have to die...' Lucas frowned and his mana was already starting to pool in Lucas' palm, but Sarah's voice brought him back to reality.

"A-Are you sure he's okay?" Sarah asked through tears. She trembled at the thought that she had accidentally killed Darwin.

"Uh... He's fine." Lucas said, lifting his mana. 'Next time.' Lucas thought as he stood up and walked towards Sarah.

"Let's get the nurse for that guy." Lucas said with a smile.
