Chapter 1: Born with High expectations

In the silent night of the Elf kingdom, a baby's wail broke apart the silence. Following the sound to the northern part of the Kingdom, there was a massive city located on the surface of a flat mountain. The sound came from a gigantic castle located in the centre of the city. The castle was beautifully carved and occasionally, lightning would run through the castle.

Inside a certain room, a breath-takingly beautiful female elf was hugging a new-born baby. Even though she seemed haggard, it did nothing to suppress the beauty of her sliver hair and gem-like red eyes.

Beside the bed stood a male elf that looked as if he's in his twenties with long blonde hair. He was deviously handsome but the most prominent thing about him was his blue eyes that seemed as if a lightning occasionally flickered within.

"Finally after all these years, I; Edward Draco will have a son." the male elf emotionally said it out loud.

"Quiet down, you will wake the baby." the female elf softly said to the man, while gazing at the baby full of love.

The male elf named Edward Draco is one of the four Dukes of the elf kingdom and also the current Patriarch of the long-standing Draco clan. The female elf is a member of the Draco clan of the same generation as Edward named Kate Draco and is the wife of Edward.

Elf are generally known to not produce much offspring due to their infertility as compared to other races. A characteristics of elf was that most of them was refined, having fair and outstanding looks, with pointed ears. Due to their nature, they do not consume meat and only plants are consumed.

They are more known for their long-lives and each elf has an average lifespan of 500 years. The couples has already been married for a half a decade and both are already in their 200 years of life. After many years, they finally have a son.

"He looks like me but with your sliver hair Kate" Edward examined the baby, barely able to suppress his excitement.

"He will be popular with the ladies" Kate laughed weakly. The baby had sliver hair and a facial feature that closely resembled his father, with the most prominent thing being his blue eyes that seemed to have lightning flickering within.

"Let's name him Adrian; Adrian Draco" Edward said to his wife Kate.

Kate nodded while looking at the baby and said," Little one, your name will be Adrian from now on and I hope you will grow up healthy and strong," which sounded almost like a blessing of some sort.

The news was a joyous matter for the whole elf kingdom as the powerful wizard; Duke Draco gave birth to a son whom all believed will be a great wizard that will benefit the whole of the elf kingdom in the future. Even Kate was renowned for her lightning healing skills.

The news spread fast, to even the Kingdom of human where the news was a cause to be celebrated. However to the East of the continent, where lies the demon and orc kingdom, the news was devastating and depressing as they may in the future, have to deal with a powerful wizard.

A week later, the duke sent invitations out for celebrations of his son's birth where many of the elf kingdoms prominent clans and businesses came to congratulate the Draco clan. Even the human kingdom's emperor sent his personal envoy for congratulating the duke. The celebration lasted for the whole day, until midnight, where slowly each of the guests left.

Days passed and seasons went by. In a garden of flowers located within the castle sat a 5 year old elf child wearing a robe with various marks of lightning that on a closer look seemed to be flickering and moving. He appeared to be in deep thought, with wisdom occasionally passing through his piercing blue eyes.

"Father has told me that every children of the Iron Throne will undergo their Avatar awakening at the age of 6 and start their Wizard or Witch training at age 7, but I'm worried that I won't be able to awaken a powerful Avatar like father and mothers. Perhaps I should ask mother" The child spoke in his mind.

Focusing his vision on his mother, whom was sitting on a wooden chair reading a book, Adrian ran to her bosom and said with his still child-like voice," Mother, will I be able to awaken a powerful Avatar like father; I'm honestly worried".

"Foolish child, you are the son of your father, whom every race and people in the Continent acknowledges as one of the strongest magic casters and at the same time, the descendant of the Draco clan. You were destined to be great from the moment you were born so have great pride and don't be depressed." Kate said softly to her son.

"The Draco Clan is an ancient clan with a rich history. There has thus been no descendant of the clan being ordinary. Tho few in numbers, each of the individual clan members are exceedingly powerful. We members of the Draco clans are descendants of the Divine Lightning Dragon, thus explaining our abnormally high affinity with the element of lightning.

You are probably the only child of this generation as Father and mother were the only ones of the previous generation. The other members of the clan are all getting old and has already given up on having descendants. Thus you must not act rashly which will only damage our reputation" Kate spoke seriously.

"Yes Mother" Adrian sighed, clearly feeling the pressure due to him being the sole younger generation of the clan.

"Don't feel too pressured Adrian, I know it's a big burden but it comes with privileges that most of the others your age will never gets. You get to live in this place which has a rich amount of elemental particles, particularly the lightning element. Moreover, you get to eat foods with high elemental particles within. These are privileges that most other children your age can only dream of but never have. So instead of worrying all day, you should just focus on growing up first." Kate spoke to Adrian, feeling sorry for him.

"You may be right mother, what's the point of worrying." Adrian spoke, now clearly much more cheerful than before.

Kate on the other hand knew that the burdens Adrian holds are twice as high as to when she was younger and couldn't help but feel sorry for him. She and Edward knew it so they decided to fully support Adrian no matter what he does and be a loving parent to their son.

"It's almost time for your daily lessons so you should go" reminded Kate

"Okay mother, the lesson should finish before dinner so don't start without me" Adrian ran while shouting at his mother.

He ran out of the garden area which was actually surrounded with a natural elemental barrier that only allowed certain individuals inside, running towards the castle.

The Draco clan managed the northern part of the Kingdom and occupied a city. The city was called Fulgur and was a place where the Draco Clan stayed and proceed for thousands of years.

Along the way, he greeted many of his clan elders and members of other clans under the rule of the Draco Clan. He ran to a room located on the west side of the castle, which was guarded heavily by guards on the entrance. Draco straight away bypassed the guards, coming to stop in front of a portal.

The whole of elf kingdom was actually a large area divided into four areas. The Southern area belonged to the current ruler of the elf kingdom; King Lennon from the Leo Clan. The Eastern area belongs to Duke Alonso from the Hydra Clan. The Western area belongs to Duke Rein from the clan of Roc. And finally there's the Northern Forest belonging to my father, Duke Edward of the Draco Clan.

A tradition of the Elf Kingdom was that every 300 years, a competition would take place to decide the King from the 4 major clans. During the last Competition, the Leo Clan won and thus Lennon was crowned King.

However, the deadline of the competition was soon approaching and the Draco Clan was one of the favourites to win with Edward being able to participate in the approaching competition.

Without a second thought, he straight away ran in the portal and spoke out " Ignis" and with a dazzling glow, he disappeared from the spot.

At the same time, the southern city of the Elf Kingdom was burning hot, a place renewed for its hot weather.

This is due to the city located on a volcano, spread out on the volcano mountain. In the topmost area, right next to the crater of the volcano, was a red castle, that seemed as if it was burning. This place was called Ignis and was the city of the Leo Clan.
