"Umm, Grandma, didn't you say that an Elder dragon is stronger than an adult dragon? So how is Grandpa the strongest," he asked with a confused face.
"Ohh, that; I guess there are still many things that I need to teach you,"
"But first, let me finish my explanation about dragons, and after this, I will tell you why your Grandpa is considered the strongest even when he has not reached his final phase," she said.
"Hmm,"
"Now let me explain the last ability of dragons to you,"
'Damn, there is still more; dragons are truly overpowered beings,' Renan said in his mind.
"The control over elements," Belinda stated with a serious expression.
"Control over elements," Renan repeated, processing the information.
"Yes, dragons have control over elements, for example, water, fire, ice, earth, and more, depending upon what they are born with, but most dragons possess at least two elements from birth, and the level of control they have over these elements is also decided from their birth," Belinda explained.
"Then does that mean grandma I don't have any elements," Renan asked.
"You do have elements control Renan," Belinda replied with a light smile on her face.
"Then why don't I feel anything like having control over the elements that I possess since you said one would have their elements decided the day they are born, and I haven't sensed any kind of elements till now, so shouldn't that mean I don't have any element," he questioned.
'Or is there some kind of requirement for dragons to be able to use their elements,' Renan pondered inwardly.
"That is because you have not come in contact with elements till now. That's why your elements are still dormant. They will awaken once you come into contact with them," Belinda explained.
"So does that mean I don't have elements like earth, wind and water,"
"No, at all; the elements of the dragon can only be awakened if they come in contact with the purest form of elements; otherwise, they will not be awakened and remain dormant," she explained further.
"Purest form of the element," Renan tilted his head with confusion.
"Yes, the Purest form of the elements can also be called element stone," Belinda nodded.
"Then when can I awaken my elements, Grandma," Renan asks with excitement laced in his voice.
"Well, usually the dragons awaken their elements when they are in their second phase, which usually takes the newborn dragon ten years to enter, and you, who entered in it a month was unexpected but don't worry, your grandma has made the arrangements for you, you will be able to awaken your elements tomorrow," Belinda said.
'I can't wait to see what elements I possess," Renan said inwardly with excitement.
"Thank you, Grandma,"
"You are welcome," she said with a warm smile.
"Now back to your previous question about your Grandpa being the strongest while he's still in his fourth phase,"
"Actually, it would have been indeed impossible to become stronger than the fifth phase while remaining in the fourth phase before the war," Belinda said.
"War," Renan echoed, processing the weight of her words.
'Wtf? Is there really a war going on in this world, and who is strong enough to have a war against the dragon,' Renan said in his mind.
"Yes, there is a war between Dragons and Humans," Belinda confirmed, her expression serious.
'HUMANS,' Renan thought, his mind racing.
