[Resshin](http://flameofrecca.wikia.com/wiki/Resshin), the 8th flame dragon
was revealed as Recca's & Kurei's father,
[Oka](http://flameofrecca.wikia.com/wiki/%C5%8Cka). Does that mean that _all
flame masters_ will eventually become a flame dragon after they die? Or does
this only apply when a flame master died with regret like stated
[here](http://flameofrecca.wikia.com/wiki/%C5%8Cka)?

> When Oka died with regret in his heart, he became the eighth dragon, and
> took the name of Resshin. Because his flame had an inner shape, he was able
> to retain his natural power and did not become a useless dragon.

Was there any official explanation about this? I haven't read the manga so I
don't know if the answer was explained there.

question
flame-of-recca
Will Recca become the 9th flame dragon?


It was revealed later that Recca was not a flame master like the others, he
had inherited the former flame dragons, but he himself had no unique flame
ability. Therefore, when he dies, he might become a flame dragon, but he'd be
a useless one.

From Volume 16 - Chapter 153:
