The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 840

Chapter 840: Chapter 840: Half-Demon Callum Yuan

Scarlett Jennings met Callum Yuan’s gaze without flinching or avoiding it.

Just by observing his reaction, she knew that she had guessed correctly.

Within the entire Special Demon Squad, Scarlett Jennings had the most contact with Callum Yuan.

Whether it was during the last Academy competition or three months ago when they rescued the kidnapped imp sprite, she had never truly crossed paths with him.

Three months ago, she had only suspected it vaguely; it was only yesterday that she could confirm it.

Callum Yuan, indeed, was a half-demon.

But strangely enough, he was different from her and all the half-demons in the Academy.

Whether in the Academy or the Special Demon Squad, no one seemed to know about this.

"You don’t need to glare at me like that, I’m not intending to reveal your secret to anyone."

Normally, she wasn’t keen on probing into others’ secrets, nor would she casually expose what others wanted to keep hidden.

The reason she brought it up was not just out of curiosity, but also because the Demon Master had just explained the uniqueness of the Dragon Clan’s demon vein to her.

Unlike the opportunities she obtained by chance, the Dragon Clan once truly had the existence of those powerful enough to harness dual demonic powers.

At the time, Scarlett Jennings somehow thought of Callum Yuan.

Though he was a half-demon, both his demonic power and attributes aligned with those of a pureblood demon, which was why his true identity was never discovered.

If ordinary Dragon Clan members possessed stronger demonic power than regular demons, could a half-demon Dragon Clan member with special talent potentially unleash perfect demonic power from just half their bloodline?

Contemplating her own speculations, and the vaguely familiar aura she detected while sparring with him the previous day, Scarlett Jennings, facing Callum Yuan’s almost murderous gaze, asked on her own volition,

"Are you a half-demon from the Dragon Clan?"

The icy murderous aura seemed to pause slightly. Although the boy’s expression remained unchanged, his slightly enlarged pupils betrayed his inner thoughts at that moment.

Scarlett Jennings: ...

Alright, she guessed correctly again.

"What exactly do you want?"

Callum Yuan finally spoke coldly, as the handle of the copper watering can he was holding deformed under his uncontrollable grip.

Scarlett Jennings, however, appeared unaware, still looking at him,

"I told you, I don’t want anything.

If I had to say what I wanted, I’m indeed curious about the Great Demon of the Dragon Clan who once possessed dual demonic powers, and also..."

She paused and said softly,

"And about the matters between the Dragon Clan and the Dragon Vein, since you’re from the Dragon Clan too, could you possibly..."

"No."

Scarlett Jennings’s words were promptly rejected by Callum Yuan before she could finish.

The boy’s expression was cold and extraordinarily solemn, with an almost imperceptible disdain in his eyes,

"I am not from the Dragon Clan, nor do I possess their noble bloodline. You’ve been at the Academy of Mystique long enough; you should know what half-demons are to the Demon Clan?"

Towards the end, a flash of ridicule crossed Callum Yuan’s eyes, so quick it was almost undetectable.

Yet when he looked at Scarlett Jennings again, his eyes returned to their usual cold and indifferent state,

"Mr. Wen allowed you to return to the clan with a quarter of a bloodline and even sent you to this academy because he values you.

Instead of wasting your energy on these trivial matters, you would do better to cultivate your demonic power and become stronger, so as not to disappoint Mr. Wen’s expectations."

Speaking of Cassian Wolf, the cold murderous intent Callum Yuan had seemed to wane slightly.

Scarlett Jennings had vaguely sensed Callum Yuan’s respect for Aaron Hearne, and even within the entire Special Demon Squad, only Callum Yuan’s ultimate goal was to work in the Mystic Regulation Office under Cassian Wolf.

Therefore, during the initial Academy assembly, Aaron Hearne assigned him as the team leader of the Spritelife Group for the entire event...
