"That's also how your great-grandpa died. But before dying, he self-destructed, taking a significant number of enemy soldiers and a commander with him. This forced the humans to retreat, ending the Second War," Belinda concluded.
'So dragons are kinda at fault here in this war and my great-grandpa sacrificed himself to give dragons some time to recover and get ready for another war,' he thought inwardly.
"So great-grandpa died in the second war to give us some time," Renan said with some sadness in his voice.
"That's right, but your great-grandpa's sacrifice didn't go to waste. We dragons, after two, three hundred years of research, finally made a discovery, which erased one of our weaknesses," Belinda said excitedly.
"What discovery, Grandma," Renan asked with a confused face.
"Renan didn't I tell you that we dragons need three thousand years before we reach our peak in strength, right,"
"Yes, you did Grandma," he nodded his head.
"And we were able to erase that weakness after our three hundred years of continuous research," she said.
"How grandma,"
"Well didn't I tell you that humans were helped by elves back then and were taught ways to use mana and magic with which they can use elements but still not comparable to dragons who have full control over their respective elements, were they needed to use chant and still didn't have the same level of control,
But with the things they were taught by elves, they were able to make two paths from which humans could become way stronger than before,
They were called warriors and mages, warriors who were close-range fighters would form stars of mana in the body of their own by absorbing the mana surrounding them or from mana stone to have an overwhelming strength but the max limit of the star they could form in their body was 'Nine' and warriors who reach nine star have an about thirty percent of Elder dragon strength," Belinda took a breath before continuing.
"Mages who are ranged fighters try to copy a dragon's heart, but in the end, they did not succeed in forming a dragon heart but were able to form something like a dragon heart, which was not as good as a dragon heart,
Form a circle made out of mana around their heart to have an amazing amount of mana to use magic, and just like warriors, mages also have a max limit of 'Nine' circles, and mages who reach nine circles have thirty percent of mana comparable to Elder dragon," Belinda explained.
'Well, that's expected from humans. After all, they are quite adaptable beings, No matter where they are, they will adapt to it,' Renan thought in his mind.
"And after the second war was stopped I kidnapped those humans who were training in these paths and after three hundred years of research I was finally able to find a way for dragons to become stronger and those humans who are in their home right now getting ready for third war doesn't know anything," Belinda said that with a grin on her face.
'Wow, she's amazing to think she's the one who finds a way for the dragons to become stronger,' Renan started to admire his grandma.
"Wow, Grandma, you are amazing, but what is the way for the dragon to become stronger," Renan asked in his childlike voice.
Belinda who saw the admiring look in his eyes just laughed and said, "Hahaha of course your grandma is amazing,
the way for dragons to become stronger is not that much different from mages they would also have to form circles around their heart but unlike mages who use mana from their surroundings or from mana stones to form circles dragons would use mana from their own heart to form it and reach nine circles and if the dragon forms nine circles and became Elder dragon then they could absorb the mana from the circle in their dragon heart back and erase their circle from around their heart,
And why I didn't make something like Warriors Star of mana for dragon to increase their strength simply because they could use mana to increase their strength," Belinda stated.
"Amazing. So how many circles have Grandpa from Grandma?"
Belinda replied, "Nine, your Grandpa has formed nine circles around his heart,"
