Chapter 983: Chapter 983: The Abandoned Dragon Whelp

Simon heard her ask, and merely raised his eyebrows lightly.

Clearly, he wasn’t surprised that she would ask.

Or rather, he had been waiting for her to ask.

"Callum Yuan wasn’t in Capital Metropolitan from the beginning."

As the acting head of the Security Bureau, and being part of the Dragon Clan, Simon had long investigated the sudden appearance of the Half-Demon dragon offspring in Capital Metropolitan.

"He was born in a remote mountain village in the North Province."

For a thousand years, the Demon Clan waned, and the Dragon Clan had not seen the birth of a dragon offspring for nearly a thousand years.

In such circumstances, every newly born dragon offspring should be thoroughly protected, even if they are Half-Demon.

However, Callum Yuan was an accident.

The Dragon Clan, due to their strength and scarcity, tends to develop an arrogant nature.

Though Simon was part of the Dragon Clan, he couldn’t guarantee that every dragon would be a good dragon.

There was a dragon in the North Province who was domineering and self-centered, acting recklessly because no one restrained him.

He happened to meet a beautiful woman in the mountains, and without considering her wishes, he humiliated her and took her for himself.

It was during the Republic era; although women’s status had slightly improved, village women were still regarded as before, let alone a woman who lost her honor and had to bear a child alone.

She lost her honor and was forced to bear a child.

The woman was condemned by the villagers and was driven to live alone in a wooden cabin near the foot of the mountain.

Initially, she didn’t want to give birth to the child, but despite trying various methods, she couldn’t abort the child.

The child was born.

The child, carrying the aura of the Dragon Clan, naturally attracted the dragon.

He was initially delighted.

After all, dragon offspring are scarce, yet he had a child born from a human.

He couldn’t wait to take the child back to the clan and show off, even ignoring the woman’s pleas.

But soon, he discovered that aside from a faint Dragon Energy at birth, the child’s appearance and Soul Breath were almost indistinguishable from humans.

Normally, Half-Demons are born with Demon Clan features until they can control their demonic power to hide those features.

But Callum Yuan was born looking human, and as the faint Dragon Energy dissipated, the dragon bloodline scent on him became so faint it was barely noticeable.

The dragon was displeased, but thinking it might be due to the Half-Demon Bloodline, he decided to raise the child and see.

Despite the woman’s sobbing pleas, he forcibly took the child, raising him for ten years, during which the child grew like any normal child.

However, he was just too normal.

From appearance to aura, he was indistinguishable from ordinary humans, and even minor Demons could easily knock him down.

The dragon, unwilling to give up, tried harsh methods on the child to forcefully activate the dragon bloodline.

The attempt failed.

He was mocked by the elders of the clan and finally understood that this dragon offspring was a "defective product."

Remembering the last trace of bloodline connection, he didn’t discard the child randomly but sent the near-death child back to the woman.

For a dragon, ten years is a very brief time, a mere nap’s worth.

But to humans, ten years is long enough to change many things.

The woman had married, even had another child.

She had a normal child, and her feelings for the previous child had long been devoted to this child and her family.

As for Callum Yuan, from birth, he was taken away, and only at ten years old was he sent back, dying; even though he was her first painstakingly conceived child, she found it hard to love him again.

She couldn’t possibly raise him, and her current family didn’t allow her to raise him.

The woman threw him back to the cabin at the foot of the mountain where he was left alone.

The ten-year-old child survived there alone.

He knew he had a father.

But the father tortured him and discarded him.

He also knew he had a mother, but the mother didn’t want him either.

He didn’t even have his own name.

He grew up alone in that little cabin.

Occasionally, someone would secretly leave a couple of buns for him at the cabin door; he knew it was from that "mother."

The buns carried her aura.

She hadn’t completely abandoned him.

But she hadn’t accepted him either.
