But Chuyuan, who had already experienced the warmth and coldness of the world, how could he willingly resign himself to becoming a mere beast again, as Song Wu suggested?
When exactly had he started wanting to become human...
Chuyuan didn't remember very clearly.
Was it after he left his father and received gratitude from a little girl; or was it when he continuously interacted with humans, trying to integrate into their society, only to have his true identity exposed and be hunted down by adventurers; or perhaps, it began with the desire to be recognized by his father.
If he were human, perhaps he would not have to endure so much pain.
As a human, he could become Song Wu's true child and repay his foster father's kindness.
As his wounds slowly healed while on the move, Chuyuan looked at his blood-stained palms, clenched them tightly, and gazed forward with an unprecedented determination in his eyes.
To become human, for a demon, was nearly impossible.
