"But he is my older brother. How come he is a full-blooded dragon?" Ronald decided to inquire to get some clarification.

"Raymond is not Regis' son. So, he is not your brother," Ferdinand revealed without hesitation.
Ronald would have known about this earlier if some of his elf traits had manifested when he was younger. But they did not, so he remained in the dark about the truth.
"N-Not my brother?" Ronald blinked repeatedly.
[How could that be? He had been my brother since he was first brought home by Father. They clearly told me he's, my brother. Father had a lot of praise about him too.]
"Isn't he my father's son from a former lover?"
