Reincarnated as a Failed Villain: Fallen Angel
Chapter 70 Arc 2 - Jimmy Rells (Part 2)Jimmy strides through the hallway; wings outstretched, face aglow with energy. He moves with purpose and confidence, hands sweeping through the air in dramatic arcs as though he's conducting an orchestra. The other students are in stark contrast, rushing past him in a panic, looking over their shoulders at the strange apparition.
"Monster! Monster!" Some screamed.
"Help! Help us!" Cried some more.
"Run for your lives! Run now!!" Others cried out fearfully.
"A monster possessed Jimmy!"
The boy had no pity for their screams; he enjoyed them. The screams served to fuel the flames of anger within him. His eyes glowed red once again, and his jaw set in determination as he thought about what he wanted to do next. He felt powerful as he entered the cafeteria and looked down at his classmate hiding near the back corner.
"Hi, Jeremy." He greeted his former bully with an evil smile on his face before pointing up toward the sky and whispering softly, "I will send you to heaven." A blast of wind ripped through the room, causing everyone to scream in terror as they covered their heads with their arms or jumped off tables.
"M-Monster... Monster..." Jeremy exclaimed as he created a fireball and threw it at Jeremy's face, dealing no damage.
Jeremy smirked, "You have no right calling people monsters after what you did to me." He pointed his finger at Jeremy and said, "You shall repent for your sins in the afterlife."
However, before Jimmy could land a blow at his bully, another teacher jumped in and grabbed Jimmy, immobilizing him.

"Let go of me!" Jimmy exclaimed angrily as he tried to push away the teacher; however, as a former S-rank adventurer, the teacher didn't budge.
"LET ME GO!" Jimmy yelled; his voice started breaking all the glass in the school windows and shattering every mirror present.
The teacher's eyes and ears were bleeding profusely, and her skin was burned from the sound of Jimmy's voice. There were pieces of broken glass and shattered mirrors around her, a testament to the horrific power of Jimmy's outburst. The air seemed to be charged with electricity as if thunder and lightning had been unleashed in the cafeteria.
"Stand down, Jimmy." The teacher shouted, still holding Jimmy.
Jimmy couldn't sense a single sin from this teacher and was confused about what he should do.
"Just let go of me! I only want Jeremy!" He insisted as he struggled with the teacher, who then responded.
"You're possessed! This mana is corrupting your thoughts!" the teacher exclaimed; sweat was dripping down his forehead as he was losing strength.
Jimmy's body may look fragile, but he now had the strength and durability of an angel. The only reason he managed to hold him down was his lack of sins and malice.
"I want... JEREMY!" Jimmy yelled, and with the powerful flat of his wings, he jumped and crashed into the wall with his teacher.
Jimmy slowly scanned the cafeteria, taking in the deserted lunch tables and upturned chairs. His fists were clenched tight, and his jaw was set with determination. He strode up to the teacher, towering over him. "If Jeremy escapes the school," he snarled, "I'll find him at home. And I won't stop there—his family will pay for this too." He grinned maliciously as the teacher shrank away from him.
The teacher struggled not to pass out; he extended his hand toward Jimmy and muttered, "D-Don't..."
"That's a small price to pay for all those years of tormenting I had endured." Jimmy grabbed the teacher's collar and added, "And... for killing me."
"W-What?" The teacher exclaimed in confusion; he couldn't understand whether Jimmy was delusional or higher powers were working here.
Jimmy released the teacher, as he still didn't want to kill someone who was not a sinner. Jimmy's wings vanished, and he noticed someone's school jacket lying on the floor.
"Mhm... This should fit well." he picked up the jacket and put it on as he walked out of the cafeteria. He planned to blend in with panicked students. He put on a scared face and ran out of school, noticing a couple of adventurers on the scene already.
"S-Shit..." He exclaimed, starting to feel nervous. He felt afraid as he wondered whether he would get a chance to get revenge on Jeremy, fight the adventurers, or he would have to flee.
"We need to evacuate! Go back to the safe zone!!" Someone yelled.
"Kid! Go to the safe zone!" the adventurer pointed toward the white portal made for evacuation purposes. The adventurer shouted, standing between two others. All three men had their swords drawn. "Go away!"
"Alright." Jimmy nodded, hiding his true intentions. He knew that Jeremy would be wherever that portal was leading to. He also saw that one of the adventurers was quite the sinner; out of jealousy of a woman his brother married, he forced his brother into suicide and used her economic struggles as leverage to sleep with her. But he thought that first, he needed to find Jeremy, then he would deal with the adventurer.
The adventurers stared at Jimmy's red eyes in suspicion but didn't act on it.
Jimmy went toward that place with heavy steps, holding his head down and avoiding eye contact with adventurers who looked at him suspiciously. Jimmy tried to walk as fast as he could, but he had to stop several times to avoid getting into an altercation with some of the fleeing children; however, they instantly recognized him.

The adventurers looked at each other, confused. But quickly drew their swords and pointed them at Jimmy.
Jimmy couldn't move or speak for a moment while trying to devise a plan for dealing with these adventurers; however, bloodlust toward one of the adventurers took over.
"This is the monster?" one adventurer said
"Seriously? It's just a kid." another said.
*Sigh* Jimmy patted his forehead in frustration when he heard footsteps from behind. He turned around slowly and pointed toward the sinner adventurer as he said, "Marvin... You're so fucking unlucky." He put on his most evil smile and whispered softly: "Michael sends his regards."
Sinner adventurer almost dropped his weapon in shock at the mention of his name. But when Marvin heard his brother's name, he couldn't help but tremble as he gritted his teeth.
"How does he know your name?" one adventurer asked.
"Michael? Isn't that your brother's name?" another added question.
"This monster doesn't know what he is talking about. Let's kill him."
Two adventurers gazed at each other before saying. "B-But we're supposed to capture him alive."
"K-Kill him! That's a fucking order!"
Jimmy looked at them, happy that he managed to hit the nerve. "I could expose you for a piece of shit that you are..." Then his wings and halo appeared as his eyes glowed. He jumped toward Marvin and thrust his hand into his chest, grabbing his still-beating heart. "But I think Michael would prefer me killing you!~"
