The Winner is . . .

            "So, there are no races more perfect compared with Devarians?" Shin couldn't help but ask. "Are they even better than Elves?"

          "More than you think," Aanya answered, "But if we talk about the race with the most affinity to the spirit and mental ability, then Dragons came top—not that there were many true dragons in the universe. But the few Old Dragons that still live held great power and intelligence."

          "There are dragons?" Shin's eyes glittered instantly.

          "There are, but it's almost impossible to see them," Aanya answered. "Even though they held great power, they are a crafty bunch, you cannot find them even if you seek them out for decades."

          "Enough talk about dragons and whatnot," Elior sighed, hitting Shin on the shoulder. "Your match is coming in. Get ready."
