Reincarnated as a Failed Villain: Fallen Angel

"You've got some nerve." Drake's eyes narrowed and his ears twitched as his cheeks flushed red and Lucas's words hit his ears. His jaw clenched as he attempted to control the anger bubbling up within him. "If I wasn't here, you would have killed Thomas."

"Hehe..." Lucas awkwardly smiled as he knew that there was no way to lie his way out of this. It was indeed his plan. "Well, let the bygones be bygones." He walked closer to Drake and extended his hand toward him. His hand engulfed itself in black flames. "I want to make a deal with you."

"Huh?!" Both Drake and Dorian gasped in shock at Lucas's offer.

"I have some information... That you would find interesting." Lucas smiled.

"What kind of information?" Drake asked after tilting his head.

Lucas shrugged. "It's about Jasmine. I know where she is."

Drake's eyes widened and an icy chill ran down his spine. He sprang forward, both hands outstretched in a blur, and clamped his fingers around Lucas's collar. His eyes flashed with rage and his nostrils flared as he glared down menacingly.

"WHERE IS SHE?!"

"That's not how you make a deal, Drake..." Lucas smirked and his eyes gazed at his flaming hand.

In the novel, Drake had a lover with similar power to Jessica. She was able to see the future and she was there to help him to deal with his newly awakened power and immense bloodlust. However, Lucas realized that there was another difference between the novel and real life as Drake left the elemental kingdom.

When Lucas made his bargain with Dorian, he requested something extra; to keep a watchful eye out for a bargaining chip in case he needed it. Dorian found her right away, yet he had no idea why Lucas was interested in her, nor did he much care. Jessica wasn't the only one Lucas asked to find, despite that Dorian just fulfilled his part, without asking any questions.

"I will kill you!" Drake roared and tightened his grip on Lucas's neck. "I will rip your fucking throat out!"

Lucas didn't say anything. He simply smiled and kept his burning hand over his shoulder.

"I am going to kill you!" Drake screamed at Lucas's face. "I will take your soul and use it to feed my dogs!"

Lucas remained silent as he stared at Drake's furious expression. He knew that Drake was bluffing and that there was no way he could kill him as this information was too important for him.

However, Dorian knew that it was best not to push Drake's buttons and decided to interrupt.

"Let go of him!" Dorian shouted as he grabbed Drake's two tails and pulled him away. Then he started him around and Drake flailed his arms and feet around like a ragdoll.

"Hey hey! Stop it, you two." Lucas chuckled as he bent forward and placed his hand on his knee as he kneeled.

Drake tried to free himself from Dorian's grip, but the abnormal demon's grip was too strong for him. He then glanced at Lucas who was still smiling and Drake's anger and frustration rapidly overwhelmed him.

"Ow, geez..." Lucas sighed. "Now I don't feel like making a deal." he knew that Drake wasn't in his right mind anymore, so he would not be able to focus on fighting against Dorian. It was a win-win no matter what Drake would choose.

Drake scoffed as he panted and glared at Lucas. His pale orange eyes then switched direction to look at Dorian, who was laughing. Drake took this as a sign of mockery and his anger boiled within him.

"Ha ha ha!" Dorian laughed and he released Drake, who fell to the ground. "Good job, Drake! Your tamper tantrum just lost you a deal."

Drake's eyes widened as he stared at Dorian with a murderous glare. He then turned his gaze back to Lucas and his bloodlust returned. He clenched his fists tightly and growled loudly.

"Don't think that I'm done with you!" Drake snarled. He wasn't standing up, just lying on the ground and staring at them.

Dorian shrugged and turned away to walk towards Lucas. "I wanted to fight him a little longer, but it seems he lost the fighting spirit." he said with a laugh.

Lucas blinked as he turned his gaze to Dorian and then looked at Drake. 'So what are you going to do, Drake?' he asked in his mind. He then noticed that Drake was still glaring at him with an angry expression on his face. 'I guess, he doesn't want to make a deal. Oh well, at least he lost a will to fight.' he thought to himself.

Lucas stood up slowly and walked towards Dorian. "I would still beat him, someday." he said confidently.

Drake snorted derisively as he got up; he swallowed his pride and moved toward Lucas. "Fine." he extended his hand toward Lucas. "I will hear you out."

Lucas returned a smile and shook Drake's hand. As their hands touched, they burst into black flames as the deal was being made. The two of them needed to make conditions, and both had to choose whether accept them or not.

"Tell me the terms, Lucas!" Drake growled.

"Alright." Lucas smiled. "First things first, I need you to find her and never get in my way."

Drake snorted as he crossed his arms over his chest. "No way!" he replied shortly. If he agreed with this, then no matter what Lucas decided to do; even if he decided to kill Jasmine... Drake wouldn't be able to protect her. "For that information, I promise not to interrupt you as long as it does not concern me or my friends."

Lucas's eyes swept over to Thomas and he looked at Drake with a tired expression. "Do you think I am stupid?"

If he chose to agree with this option, Drake would still be allowed to interfere in case Lucas would have trouble with Thomas. He was not going to agree with such a thing. Unless...
