The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 985

Chapter 985: Chapter 985: Academy of Mystique Brawl

Callum Yuan’s breath paused for a fleeting moment when he saw the Special Demon Squad students appear neatly inside the academy.

He genuinely didn’t care about the people blocking the entrance.

As for the words they were saying... he had heard worse, and didn’t care about them either.

But seeing Dashiell and Scarlett Jennings standing beside him, and the Special Demon Squad students standing inside the door, Callum realized that he actually did care.

He only cared about them.

Callum wasn’t very sociable in the Special Demon Squad; due to his personality, even in such a special class, he was always like a lone wolf.

But he was still a member of their Special Demon Squad, and no one was allowed to question that.

"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."

Naomi, the bespectacled girl beside Blue Mirror, spoke slowly and meticulously, her gaze sweeping over the crowd blocking the entrance, explaining meticulously,

"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."

Not to mention Scarlett Jennings is the best proof.

Blue Mirror nodded in agreement and said sharply,

"But it’s no surprise that you lot, who lack the qualifications to join the Special Demon Squad, don’t know any better."

With one sentence, the troublemaking demons’ hostility, which had been subdued, instantly ignited.

The Demon Clan respects strength, and even knowing they would lose, they wouldn’t seek trouble.

But being "humiliated" like this meant that not having a group fight would not settle the matter today.

Immediately, some demons started itching for a fight, and Demon Energy surged forth.

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.

The demonic power spread out, six Fox Tails unfurled from behind her, and her imposing aura almost instantly suppressed the demons present.

Compared to the students cultivating regularly at the Academy of Mystique, Scarlett Jennings had improved her demonic power through real combat practice each time.

When she released that aura, the eager Demon Energy instantly shrank back in fear.

The Special Demon Squad has always acted domineeringly and wouldn’t let others off lightly just because they retreated.

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.

The crowd that had been blocking the academy gate instantly seemed like a sandwich filling.

Weaker ones were so frightened they displayed their Demon State with beast ears.

Just as the fight was about to start, everyone sensed another wave of Demon Energy rapidly approach from above.

The Demon Energy was fierce and domineering, accompanied by an anxious, angry shout,

"Why leave me out of a Special Demon Squad’s group fight?!"

Everyone heard a loud crash as someone descended from the sky, landing swiftly in front of Callum, facing the demons blocking the entrance.

It was none other than the tardy arrival of Hannah Hearne.

Hannah Hearne’s previously disheveled look from the fight in the Mind Domain was now cleaned up.

She swept her gaze over the demons blocking the entrance, her attractive face full of disdain,

"Bullying our Special Demon Squad when I’m not around, you little cowards are bold!"

She didn’t waste any words and charged forward, her five tails opening and striking with a slap.

As long as she attacked fast enough, no one would know she was the latecomer.

Blue Mirror saw her start the fight and immediately cursed,

"Hannah Hearne! You’re sneaking ahead!"

He then dashed into the group of demons in front, starting to wreak havoc.

A chaotic battle broke out at the academy gate, a one-sided overwhelming fight.

Scarlett and Dashiell had already learned the truth from Simon last night, but whether to explain to the others was up to Callum Yuan.

After all, not everyone is willing to share their past with others.

Scarlett and Dashiell remained silent, even the usually vocal and dramatic Hannah Hearne didn’t speak.

The others walked coldly and distantly ahead, yet didn’t stray too far, obviously waiting for him to speak.

But what could Callum Yuan say?

He wasn’t good with words, and didn’t like to reveal his inner self.

He had never particularly liked his classmates in the Special Demon Squad, but... he didn’t dislike them either.

Or perhaps he cared a little.

But that bit of caring wasn’t enough to share his past.

While he remained silent, watching the group move further away ahead, Dashiell’s urgency grew, almost revealing Dragon Scales.

Seeing everyone about to leave, he hurriedly pushed Callum, quietly prompting him,

"Apologize!"

Not wanting to explain, surely an apology was doable?

In Callum Yuan’s hundred years of dragon life, apologies weren’t a concept.

Mr. Wen hadn’t taught him to apologize.

He was usually the one being apologized to and begged for forgiveness.

Despite not realizing, after Dashiell’s prompt, Callum Yuan hesitated for half a second, then instinctively complied.

He halted, looked at the group ahead, and hoarsely said,

"I’m sorry."
