Reincarnated as a Failed Villain: Fallen Angel-Chapter 55 Classroom Of Chaos
?"W-What's gotten into her?" Sarah's brows rose in confusion. She was used to seeing Lilith act like this, but it was usually only when it was just the two of them or Lucas was around. Then another thought came to Sarah, "C-Could she be drunk?!'
"Uh... I have no idea." Lucas echoed her expression of bewilderment. 'I doubt gods can get drunk anyway...' Lucas though. Besides, he heard the commotion outside and the entire fiasco of Darwin and Jessica plotting against him. But he wasn't planning to tell this, Sarah.
"Maybe she got a date or something?!" Sarah's lips curled into a sly grin as she stared at Lucas, the corners of her eyes scrunching with delight. She was sure that Lilith's constant advances toward him would finally cease.
Lucas awkwardly scratched his head and chuckled as he muttered. "I doubt that." He tried smiling. However, he couldn't get rid of one thought in his head. 'So they know that I was reincarnated as well? That changes everything.' After all, the story no longer went the same route as the novel and could become even more problematic.'
Sarah tried to interact with Lucas, but he was lost in thought. So she pinched his arm to get his attention.
"Lucas!" she yelped.
"Ow! What was that for?!" Lucas winced and rubbed his arm.
"You're too quiet! And I am bored!" she complained. After not seeing him yesterday, she felt extra clingy to him. "I know you're thinking about something. What is it?" she probed.
Lucas clenched his mouth shut and shook his head. "I just had a lot on my mind."
"Well, I've got some things to say about that," she said.
"What?" 𝒇r𝙚𝙚𝓌𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜𝘷𝗲𝘭.c૦𝑚
"Just come to my place tomorrow. After school is over," she whispered. "I need to talk to you about something really important."
"I will think about it." He said while giving a warm smile. She returned the gesture, but her face turned dark and sad once he turned away.
Jessica and Darwin shuffled into the classroom, their usual strides replaced by slow, heavy steps. Jessica's lips were turned up in a tight smile, and she didn't make eye contact with Lilith while Darwin nervously scanned the room, avoiding the same gaze. Despite their best efforts, the sadness in their eyes was undeniable.
The teacher's face was a mixture of anger and confusion as he stood up, looking around the room at the new transfer students who had arrived late. He motioned to Darwin, a tall, thin boy with messy brown hair and a downcast expression.
"This is Darwin Sedric," he said in a clipped tone. "He transferred here from the same school but from a different class. Due to an…unfortunate incident…he has been relocated here." He scowled at Darwin as if daring him to challenge the story.
Darwin bowed, and with a smile, he nervously added, "Yes, it's a pleasure to meet you all."
Whispers and snickers rippled through the classroom when they noticed Jessica's long blonde hair cascading over her shoulders after Lilith messed up her twin tails. The boys' eyes widened as they caught sight of her warm smile and gentle demeanor, forgotten were their dreams of dating Sarah or the feared Lilith, the ice queen of the school.
And this is Jessica Sanders," he said. "She is a new transfer student from the adjacent town."
"Yes, uncle," Jessica said, her voice soft as she tried to impress her new classmates.
"You will be seated over there." His voice rose to a commanding volume.
"Parasytes, both of them." Lilith said out loud, without even bothering to keep her voice down. Unlike Lucas, she didn't bother to hide her hatred for her new classmates.
Every student's gaze fixed on Lilith as she folded her arms across her chest. The chatter among the students softened, and all of them shifted in their seats, their minds racing with the same question—what had transpired between Lilith and the two transfer students that warranted such a public display in class? It must have been something serious.
"Shut up!" the teacher yelled.
Students' voices died down to whispers and then silenced as the teacher directed his attention to them. Jessica felt her heart racing and tried to shrink into the chair. Darwin's eyes scanned the room and noticed Lucas sitting in the back.
Lucas once again showed his middle finger. Darwin saw the gesture and awkwardly smiled. He didn't dare to face Lucas, who had the protection of a goddess. Only when he became strong enough to fight her, at least.
"Stop it! Both of you!" the teacher shouted. "Stop acting like children! You're fourteen!"
Lucas' eyes sparkled smugly as he corrected the teacher's assumption. His birthday was the same day he fought king Thomas for the second time. "I am fifteen!" he said, his voice brimming with pride. "It was my birthday yesterday."
Sarah and Lilith gasped in surprise and disbelief. Sarah's eyes widened while Lilith's jaw dropped open. They both jumped to their feet, shocked expressions on their faces.
"IT WAS YOUR FUCKING BIRTHDAY?" they yelled in unison. f𝙧ee𝘄𝐞𝚋𝐧૦ѵeƖ.c𝘰𝓶
Lucas was startled and stared at them for a couple of seconds. 'I should have kept this a secret. Shouldn't I?' he muttered to himself.
Lilith walked over to Lucas and grabbed him by his collar. "Why the fuck didn't you tell us?!"
"Y-Yeah!" Sarah agreed. "W-We could have bought you a birthday gift!" She said while stuttering and holding back tears.
"Or thrown you a party!" Lilith added.
Other classmates could only stare as two girls single-handedly started bombarding Lucas with questions, making him stand up and slowly step back.
"Come on! What the fuck were you doing yesterday?!"
"Yes! W-Where were you?!"
"Uh... G-Guys... We have class..." Lucas tried to calm the situation down; however, neither Lilith nor Sarah had it. Both continued pushing him into a corner.
The atmosphere in the classroom suddenly turned hostile and chaotic, and the chatter drowned out the teacher's voice.
"QUIET!" the teacher shouted. "Sit down! Now!"
Girls reluctantly obeyed, and Lucas was grateful to the teacher.
'Girls are brutal. Dammit.'
