due to his personality, even in such a special class, he was always like a lone wolf.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he was still a member of their Special Demon Squad, and no one was allowed to question that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There have been no Half-Demons in the past Special Demon Squad, not because it didn’t allow them, but because no Half-Demon had the strength to join before.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naomi, the bespectacled girl beside Blue Mirror, spoke slowly and meticulously, her gaze sweeping over the crowd blocking the entrance, explaining meticulously,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What the Special Demon Squad has always required is strength, and this rule is an absolute requirement here, whether for the Demon Master or for us.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention Scarlett Jennings is the best proof.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blue Mirror nodded in agreement and said sharply,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But it’s no surprise that you lot, who lack the qualifications to join the Special Demon Squad, don’t know any better.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With one sentence, the troublemaking demons’ hostility, which had been subdued, instantly ignited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Demon Clan respects strength, and even knowing they would lose, they wouldn’t seek trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But being “humiliated” like this meant that not having a group fight would not settle the matter today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, some demons started itching for a fight, and Demon Energy surged forth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett Jennings hadn’t spoken until now, but faced with the obvious intent to fight, she didn’t need to say much and stood forward, raising her leg.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The demonic power spread out, six Fox Tails unfurled from behind her, and her imposing aura almost instantly suppressed the demons present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to the students cultivating regularly at the Academy of Mystique, Scarlett Jennings had improved her demonic power through real combat practice each time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she released that aura, the eager Demon Energy instantly shrank back in fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Special Demon Squad has always acted domineeringly and wouldn’t let others off lightly just because they retreated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Scarlett Jennings took the lead in posing a fighting stance, the nine members of the Special Demon Squad inside the gate simultaneously assumed their stances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd that had been blocking the academy gate instantly seemed like a sandwich filling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Weaker ones were so frightened they displayed their Demon State with beast ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the fight was about to start, everyone sensed another wave of Demon Energy rapidly approach from above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Demon Energy was fierce and domineering, accompanied by an anxious, angry shout,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why leave me out of a Special Demon Squad’s group fight?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone heard a loud crash as someone descended from the sky, landing swiftly in front of Callum, facing the demons blocking the entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was none other than the tardy arrival of Hannah Hearne.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hannah Hearne’s previously disheveled look from the fight in the Mind Domain was now cleaned up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She swept her gaze over the demons blocking the entrance, her attractive face full of disdain,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bullying our Special Demon Squad when I’m not around, you little cowards are bold!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t waste any words and charged forward, her five tails opening and striking with a slap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as she attacked fast enough, no one would know she was the latecomer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blue Mirror saw her start the fight and immediately cursed,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hannah Hearne! You’re sneaking ahead!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then dashed into the group of demons in front, starting to wreak havoc.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A chaotic battle broke out at the academy gate, a one-sided overwhelming fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thankfully, it was the Mystic Management District, where a bit more chaos wouldn’t attract human attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after all, it was a group fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the academy’s Demon Masters hurriedly arrived, they saw the academy gate littered with bodies, fur flying amidst the yells and groans of small demons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, the fight was over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the opposing demons had already fled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Demon Masters couldn’t catch anyone red-handed, angrily kicking a severely beaten demon near them,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Starting trouble and getting beaten so badly is utterly disgraceful!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The kicked one was also part of those who incited the entrance block and didn’t dare get angry, only whimpering in grievance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who would have thought that their East District demons combined weren’t enough to beat those twelve from the West District?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially Scarlett Jennings and Callum Yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Weren’t they supposed to be Half-Demons? Why was their demonic power stronger than the Pureblood Demons?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Demons can’t tolerate deception unless the strength is overwhelming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This fight had truly subdued most of the Academy of Mystique’s demons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A small number still harbored resentment but didn’t dare approach Callum Yuan directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the Demon Masters were busy dealing with the mess at the academy gate, the Special Demon Squad, along with Dashiell, had returned to their West District territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the group surrounded Callum Yuan and stepped into the West District, the comrades who had fought side by side suddenly changed their expressions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They each put on stern faces, distanced themselves from Callum Yuan, and Blue Mirror even snorted coldly, signaling clearly, “I’m angry, you better appease me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They wouldn’t let outsiders criticize Callum Yuan’s Half-Demon lineage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this didn’t mean Callum Yuan could gloss over intentionally hiding his Half-Demon identity for years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being in the same class, deliberately concealing being a Half-Demon, required an explanation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett Jennings was also a Half-Demon, but she hadn’t hidden her lineage since joining the academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett and Dashiell had already learned the truth from Simon last night, but whether to explain to the others was up to Callum Yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, not everyone is willing to share their past with others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scarlett and Dashiell remained silent, even the usually vocal and dramatic Hannah Hearne didn’t speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others walked coldly and distantly ahead, yet didn’t stray too far, obviously waiting for him to speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what could Callum Yuan say?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn’t good with words, and didn’t like to reveal his inner self.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had never particularly liked his classmates in the Special Demon Squad, but… he didn’t dislike them either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or perhaps he cared a little.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that bit of caring wasn’t enough to share his past.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While he remained silent, watching the group move further away ahead, Dashiell’s urgency grew, almost revealing Dragon Scales.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing everyone about to leave, he hurriedly pushed Callum, quietly prompting him,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Apologize!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not wanting to explain, surely an apology was doable?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Callum Yuan’s hundred years of dragon life, apologies weren’t a concept.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr. Wen hadn’t taught him to apologize.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was usually the one being apologized to and begged for forgiveness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite not realizing, after Dashiell’s prompt, Callum Yuan hesitated for half a second, then instinctively complied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He halted, looked at the group ahead, and hoarsely said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m sorry.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1196,"2026-06-10T07:18:51.365Z",1,"novelbin.me","d2eda76f822fad0e77891fd11ea311021052be47ba37055ec8ea0f4eff847922","the-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-chapter-988","the-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-chapter-986",1286,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-fake-heiress-turns-out-to-be-a-true-tycoon-cover.jpg"]
