Reincarnated as the Last Villain

Ravengarde had not yet finished cleaning the blood off its council floorwhen news from the South arrived.

Village after village…

Swearing loyalty to Kael.

Only… not the real one.

The False Flame

In the border town of Silren, the people welcomed a man in a scorched black coat,bearing the banner of Ravengarde, and wielding a blade that burned with no fire.

His face?

Kael Valen.

But younger. Sharper. Colder.

He spoke of purging nobles, eradicating faith, and claiming ultimate power through war.

And when a farmer disagreed?

He was burned alive in the square.

[Southern Region Update]

12 villages have joined the False Kael.

Local militias now rally under his name.

Rumors spread: "Kael Valen returned from the flame as a god of war."

Public loyalty falters: Which Kael is real?

The Decision

Kael stood before the war map.

Serana, Vaenira, and Nilo surrounded him.

"We can't stay silent," Serana said. "Every day he moves, we lose more ground."

Vaenira added, "Killing him won't be enough. We need to humiliate him. Publicly. Or we lose the people's trust."

Nilo, always the softest voice, finally spoke:

"What if… what if he is part of you?"

Kael looked down.

"I know who I am.But now I have to prove it to the world."
