This persisted for 10 years, with the dragon drinking heavily and sleeping all the time, rarely leaving his house
This changed when his brothers reestablished contact with him and he got to hang out with their kids
Even though it wasn’t the same, just having a family again was nice

He used his magic to threaten the villagers into telling them who spread out that ridiculous rumor, learning that it was the organization. Even after raiding and destroying the local base of operations, he was unable to learn where his child was.
Devastated, Kentaro fell into a deep depression

One of the village kids ended up snitching that the villagers sent the kid off to an orphanage…and when Kentaro went to the orphanage, they said the kid had been adopted by a family who lives on a completely different continent
Kentaro was furious. Beyond infuriated with the villagers

One day, when Kentaro came back from a quick work trip, he found his mansion completely trashed. His belongings were ransacked or destroyed, and his child was gone. The dragon was completely distraught. In a panic, he asked if anyone in the village had seen his kid, and they all feigned ignorance…

By spreading the lie that a child was being abused in the mansion, the organization was able to get the already easily incensed (and possibly homophobic) population to rally against Kentaro
While the treatment was relatively mild at first, it escalated into a full on raid of his mansion

After being unable to get close to the mansion for the longest time due to Kentaro’s strong magic, they decide to go the propaganda route and spread dissent among the local populace
Even though the dragon lives in the middle of the mountains, there’s still a village relatively close by

While he was raising this child, an organization was targeting Kentaro’s mansion for a while because he hadn’t paid off his “loans” (Kentaro’s father was in debt to the mafia due to his excessive spending and Kentaro ended up inheriting the debt ever since his father’s death)

He also had an infant left at his doorstep when he was in his early 30s. He was originally looking for an orphanage to send the baby to, but ended up taking care of them himself
He raised that child for 6 whole years…he wasn’t a perfect father, but they both loved each other
