Reincarnated as a Failed Villain: Fallen Angel

The next day, Sarah was walking to Lucas's house. She was wearing her school uniform, and her silver hair shined in the sun. Her pink eyes sparkled with happiness as she looked at the sky. It seemed that nothing could ruin this day for her.

"Good morning." She heard a familiar voice.

Sarah looked back to see Lilith, who wore a leather jacket. Her golden eyes were staring at Sarah. "How are you? I hope everything is going well for you."

"Everything has been great," Sarah replied, smiling brightly. "I am so excited about school today!"

Lilith raised her brows as she thought 'Is it some sort of holiday or something?'. But then she remembered that it was her birthday today.

"Oh right! Happy birthday!" Lilith ran up and hugged Sarah. They both laughed.

"Thanks," said Sarah, letting go of Lilith. "Do you have any plans today?" she asked as she picked up a notebook from her backpack. "If not, I have a few places I would like to visit with you and Lucas. What do you think?" Sarah showed her notes to Lilith. There were seven places written down on the paper. One of those places was the Elemental museum.

[Elemental museum - it was near Elemental castle, in the center of the city. The place where all of the magic histories were stored. A lot of people came here in order to learn about magic. Some of them even used their own magic to help out around the place.]

"Oh, Elemental museum?" Lilith was quite intrigued herself. "Sure, I'm alright with that. Does Lucas know about this plan?"

"I mean, I planned it for a while now, but I never got an opportunity to tell him, I even doubt he remembers my birthday," responded Sarah, looking at her watch. "Oh, school is going to start in less than an hour. We should hurry."

"Don't worry, I doubt he'd forget it." Lilith stroked Sarah's hair playfully. "If he did, I'll beat the Alzheimer out of him."

"Al what?" Sarah

"You don't need to worry about the details," laughed Lilith. "Let's just say that you're going to have lots of fun today!~"

They walked toward Lucas's house. Sarah was still carrying a notebook, and she wrote things down on it as they went. She added one more place that she would love to visit.

[Snowlands - a foreign country which Lucas promised to take me someday.]

"HUHH?!" Lilith's face turned green and she yelled. "SNOWLANDS?"

"Is something wrong?" Startled, Sarah stepped back.

"Nothing, nothing!" Lilith waved her hand frantically. "It's just... Snowlands... Really surprised me!" she started looking for an excuse for her sudden outburst. "I heard about it before but I didn't think that you two should ever go there..." she trailed off.

"Well, it's just an idea," Sarah answered. "But we will eventually go there if he really wants to."

"W-Why are you so friendly with him?" Lilith asked, wondering what drived her to be so attached to Lucas.

For a moment, Sarah thought to herself as she herself didn't know the answer. So she simply shrugged and said, "He's a nice guy."

"N-NICE?!" Lilith exclaimed in surprise. "He's many things, but nice is not one of them." she started laughing. "I get that he is kinda nice to you and me... But didn't you notice how he acts with others?!"

"Huh?" Sarah suddenly felt uncomfortable with Lilith's words. "What do you mean?"

Lilith continued laughing while shaking her head.

"Do you remember anyone he even talked to at school? Anyone he was ever nice to?" Lilith asked. She genuinely wanted to hear Sarah's answer.

"I-I..." Sarah

Sarah couldn't find the courage to admit to Lilith that Lucas wasn't actually very nice to anyone. He always ignored people around him, and most of the time, he would talk to people only if they spoke first.

"Oh... That's right! He always answers people if they talk to him!" Sarah said, remembering something. "Remember that new girl? He talked to her as well! He showed her around the school."

"T-That..." Lilith awkwardly laughed. "I guess you're right." she nodded her head. She wasn't just going to tell her that Lucas threatened to kill that girl if she revealed his secrets. Or that he forced her to make a deal with him...

Lilith stopped walking and turned to Sarah. "Just... Don't go to the Snowlands. You'll regret it later."

"W-Why? Do you know something you're not telling me?" Sarah asked, confused.

"Yes." Lilith's voice became more serious.

She leaned close to Sarah and whispered in her ear: "Just promise me that you'll never be alone with him."

"HUHH?!" Sarah's face turned bright red as she shook her head, "W-What are you saying?! We're not even dating!"

"Don't lie to yourself, Sarah. I can hear how your heart beats every time you look at him." Lilith smiled as she kissed Sarah's cheek.

"Y-You're weird, Lilith." Sarah tried to push Lilith away, but she didn't budge. "You shouldn't kiss me like that!"

"Do you want me to stop?"

Sarah shook her head and pushed Lilith's face against hers. But before she could do anything, they heard Lucas's voice.

"What the fuck?"

Girls jumped back and stared at Lucas. Both of them were bright red from embarrassment.

Meanwhile, Lucas stared at them completely confused, "Do I even wanna know?" he asked and after a short sigh he shook his head. "No, don't tell me. I don't really care."

"I-It's not what you think!" both girls said together, flustered.

"I still don't really want to know," Lucas asked in a tired tone while getting closer to the two girls. "Happy birthday." Lucas hugged Sarah. "I brought you something!~" he winked.

"What?!" Sarah exclaimed. "Nooo! You didn't have to!"

"You're gonna love it!~" Lucas smirked, then took off the bag he was carrying on his shoulder. Then he picked up a golden apple that shined like the sun and gave it to Sarah. It was the most beautiful fruit she had ever seen before. "Here." he smiled happily.

"Oh, my... This is amazing! Thank you!" Sarah picked the fruit, but after looking closely at it she asked. "But what is this?"

"It is a Fruit of wi..." Lucas started explaining, but Lilith covered his mouth with her palm.

Lilith was shocked and furious. Lilith tried to remain composed, but her anger was boiling just beneath the surface. She gritted her teeth and forced a smile, but her eyes burned with a fierce intensity. "What do you think you're doing?" She asked in a low growl.

"Giving her a gift!~" he replied with an innocent smile. "Is something wrong?"

"Y-You!" Lilith clenched her fists and gritted her teeth as rage boiled inside her. She wanted to scream out her frustration, but she held it in. She had to stay strong, to stay composed. She took a deep breath and looked around. "We talked about this, Lucas."

"So?" Lucas stared at Lilith with a curious expression.

"Are you pissing me off on purpose right now?" Lilith clenched her fists even tighter, her knuckles turning white. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, trying to calm her racing heart. "Well?" she asked, her voice shaking slightly.

Lucas awkwardly scratched the back of his head and sighed. "Oh come on, what's wrong with her becoming an angel?!" he didn't even bother hiding his motives anymore. "She would be strong just as she wanted to! She would get to meet her sisters!" Lucas exclaimed joyfully.

"Sisters? Angels? What are you two talking about?" Sarah was completely clueless as she listened to them talking about something that she never heard before. She simply stared at the two of them, trying to understand what they were saying.

Lucas and Lilith awkwardly turned to her.

"Don't listen to this idiot!" the two said in unison while pointing at each other. Then both exclaimed, "STOP!"

Sarah thought that the two of them started a play or something as a part of her gift. "Is this show part of the gift or something? She asked still confused.

"Look, just eat it." Lucas pointed at the apple. "You'll become powerful. Trust me!"

"Dude! Shut up!" Lilith slapped Lucas's back of the head. "Drop that thing!" she walked to Sarah and tried to take the apple, but Sarah pulled it back and hugged it tightly against her chest.

"No way! It's a gift!" Sarah protested in panic and fear. Her gaze was fixated on the apple as if it were the most precious thing in the world. She wouldn't even let go of it until she knew what was inside it!

"It's... Uh... It's poisonous!" Lilith awkwardly made a lie, but then gritted her teeth as she realized that Sarah would never believe it. "Trust me, you don't want it!"

"Uh..." Sarah's gaze jumped from the fruit to Lilith and back again, and her face turned bright red as she thought she finally understood what was happening. "Are you jealous or something?"

Lucas smiled and nodded. "Yup, she must be jealous."

"Dude. I will send you to..." Lilith started saying, but Lucas covered her mouth. "MHmhph." He muffled her voice.

"Eat it."
