A world where magic exists those who have magic are nobles and those who dont are plebs

about 6% of the total pop is a mage due to the fact that even if a mage and a non mage have a child there is less 2% chance that the child has magic power and it is automatically arcane when it does

Every mage is born with an affinity to at most two elements(perhaps more but those havent been discovered yet)

occasionally plebs are born with magical affinity and when they do it is automatically the arcane element

therefore arcane is the lowest magical element

over generations those arcane elemental mages develop an element (water fire earth or wind) while the arcane element vanishes

one must note that the developed pure element is always stronger than the pure arcane element and a person who has both combined

Support the creativity of authors by visiting the original site for this novel and more.

further development of that pure element results in a secondary branch affinity which eventually will become the stronger main element like earth would become rock> iron> steel ...

as a result the further developed an element is the higher ones standings are

a dual elemented mage is a high noble or a king

a pure elemented mage is mid noble

an arcane elemented or half developed mage is a lower noble

our mc is called Elyas and is a half developed earth arcane noble

and Elyas has discovered a secret that no higher mage would ever allow to exist
