Reincarnated as a Failed Villain: Fallen Angel-Chapter 71 Arc 2 - Necromancer?!

Meanwhile, in Eden, Salathiel was showing through a magical crystal that was floating on top of her palm what was going on in Jimmy's high school.

"What do you think about your second Nephilim, my king?" Salathiel asked, waiting for an answer from King Lucas, who was staring at the crystal ball with wide eyes.

"T-This... This was a success." Lucas said with relief. "So he really has become the Nephilim... Haha, he even senses the sins of others!"

Salathiel nodded and smiled as if she was praised, "Exactly, my king. Using your mana, we can create as many Nephilims as you desire. And you can remove their powers if you deem it necessary." she looked at Araniel, who was standing right behind Lucas. "Araniel, could you make Eden a little more presentable to our king?" she gestured around an empty desert that was created before angel girls went to pick up a dead body.

"OH YEAH!" Araniel exclaimed with a little embarrassed tone. "I almost forgot!"

Araniel jumped into the air; her wings spread as she started levitating. Her eyes started glowing as she created a castle similar to the one in Snowlands. Around the castle a huge wall with gates. Colorful flowers were growing on each side; beautiful trees blooming with pink petals formed its walls. A few seconds later, she finished and lowered herself down.

"What do you think, my King?"

What impressed Lucas the most were the detailed statues of him in front of the gates. Each statue had large wings and raised a sword in both hands. He walked past the gate slowly, touching his hand on the cool marble statues. He then stopped as he noticed that there was a small graffiti-like writing carved above each statue's head:

[Lucas Ciffer, Eden's King.]

[Lightbringer- Lucifer]

Lucas's face flushed as he took a deep breath and squeezed his eyes shut. His palm pressed against his forehead as he shook his head in embarresment. "Goddammit, Araniel," he muttered, "did you have to bring up all of those quotes?"

"You don't like them?" Araniel asked with a sad voice; she looked as if she was going to tear up. "I thought... I thought you would like them." she bit her lip as she closed her eyes. "You loved them in your past life..."

"Eh..." Lucas scratched his head and sighed. "They can stay."

Araniel slowly turned away from Lucas so he wouldn't see her face and her lips curled up into a satisfied smirk. She threw her head back, her eyes squinting in triumph, and a smug grin spread across her face like a banner announcing 'I WIN.' f𝑟𝑒ewe𝚋𝚗૦𝐯e𝘭.c𝗼𝓂

She flew off towards Lucas, who suddenly turned to her.

"Hey, I think you should bring our new project back to Eden before he gets arrested or killed again." Lucas said in a stern voice. "I'll have to deal with the aftermath of what happened here once we get back home anyway."

Araniel nodded in agreement before flying out through the portal that Salathiel had created for her.

Jimmy killed Marvin instantly, and fought back two other adventurers. However, other adventurers with help of magical relics were taking their time defeating Jimmy; they would hit him repeatedly until he was on his knees, protecting his head from damage. But this did nothing against Jimmy's immortal body. His strength kept increasing, and his durability didn't seem to be affected at all by any amount of damage he received—his body could easily take several direct hits without losing much stamina.

"This monster..." said one of the adventurers, as he he hit Jimmy's head with a sword "Is he immortal?!" he exclaimed as Jimmy's head started regenerating on the instant.

"Shit, we need back up." another adventurer breathed heavily as sweat ran down his face "We cannot fight this thing alone!" He added more mana into his attacks, trying to find a weakness in his enemy.

Without warning, a portal opened up behind the adventurers and out stepped a ravishing brunette with piercing red eyes. Her gaze froze them like two statues, and her voice had the sharpness of a blade as she commanded, "Stand down!" Her frown then twisted into a wicked smirk as she growled, "That's it - disobey me and you don't live to see another day."

The adventurers froze in terror as the girl spoke, their blood running cold as they looked at her. Though she seemed like a normal girl, their survival instincts screamed at them to run before it was too late. The air around them seemed charged with an electric tension, as if they were standing before an immense giant, ready to snap them up like a flea between its enormous fingers.

"Jimmy, it is time to go. Your vengeance ends here." she ordered. She gestured him to come closer to her. "We need to revive more people, we can't have you get arrested or killed."

"I... Uh... Alright." Jimmy reluctantly nodded and walked closer to Araniel.

Araniel smiled and bowed to adventurers, "Thank you, for entertaining our new member. Bye-bye~" then she waved her hand at adventurers while disappearing together with Jimmy into thin air.

? Two adventurers still felt anxious at what just happened. They felt a little embaressed at the fact they froze up, but couldn't figure out why their insticts were so aware of that girl.

"W-What was that?" one of them asked. His trembling hands dropped the sword to the ground. "Was that creature same race as this immortal bastard?"

The two of them stood motionless, frozen in place by the terror that the girl's words had induced. Suddenly, their heads began to spin as they realised what she meant when she spoke about revival; necromancy. The dark art of raising the dead to do one's bidding. The thought sent shivers down their spines, and questions flooded their minds - how powerful was the necromancer if the revived creatures were so powerful? An image of a legion of winged red-eyed monsters swarmed into their minds, and every inch of their body screamed in fear. 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨ｍ

Two of them met gazes and came to a horrifying realization. "Is this a takeover? Is someone planing to take over the world?! "
