Chereads / Luniail / Chapter 2 - Just a normal dinner

Chapter 2 - Just a normal dinner

I can't say my life is anything interesting. I am far below in hierarchy but my life is anything but bad.

Hierarchy in the species category

Uncommon Terra > Turf > Soil

Common Ocean > Aqua -> Oceania (a subfamily of Ocean) > Water

Rare Gale > Breeze > Air

I mix species of Oceania and Soil. I don't have much of my mom's features but I do have gills on my collarbone area that evolve and become dry gills. Even though it is called dry gill it is wet but it can take oxygen from the air. I have mostly attribute from my dad. I got two feet of 4 toe hoof so I should be active but I am not into sports XD.

Professional name: Luniail

Nickname: Lulu or Lu

Age: 20

Main attributes: Earth bending

Specialty: Running

I feel like I am pretty smart if I say so myself. Enough to continue studying after high school. We didn't have school before like in my great-grandpa's time. But now we study just like a human does.

Humans identify us as Thaurian.

With my attributes, architecture on land is my better option. Thaurian usually has a pore that excretes a particle, liquid, and gas that can modify elements. For me, it is under my wrist. I mostly can create water and calcium. I can generate a mixture of concrete if I try.

With the technology we have, we don't need to make houses using our fluid mixture but it is more of the status quo and I just follow.

I meet my mom in the kitchen for dinner.

"Ma, is architecture hard? I kinda scared."

My mom replied, "Learning is hard in general."

"Can't you encourage me like a normal mom?" I shook my head with my mom nonchalantly reply.

"I just state a fact." She smiles back at me.

Oceania is from the best water attribute line however because of overpopulated it breaks into two. Main family Ocean and subfamily Oceania. My mom is from a distant subfamily and she is now just st normal middle-class lady.

Her features are that she has a gill on her neck instead of her collarbone area like me. The fin on her arm and feet. Her secretion is between her fingers and a bit into the palms area. She uses it for cooking and cleaning.

"What for dinner?" My dad suddenly arrives in the kitchen.

"Am I gonna be ok for uni, dad?" I ignore dad question.

"Grill fish with sweet-sour dipping and fried mushroom and veggies." My mom replied

"You gonna be fine. Let's eat dinner." My dad just answer half care and was more interested in dinner.

My dad is from the lower hierarchy however his skill isn't inferior. He works hard to be able to stand toe to toe with my mom that a higher hierarchy than him. He study in major I going and even though he didn't go through that major as a career, he still doing great.

Soil is the lowest in the hierarchy and even with a high birth rate and survival chance of living on land, before having consciousness, the easiest to hunt between land, water, and sky, the land is the easiest. To be the main prey even if the birth rate same as water, they are still more uncommon.

My dad's features are the same as mine with 4 toe hoof. If you look at him, he doesn't seem like doing sport. Land attribute usually has a tusk or horn, however being inferior genetically, he has a fang that can be hidden in his mouth.

Genetic-wise, man has more flashy exaggerated features. The color is much more vibrant to show its danger. Even though we didn't require it anymore for survival, the genetics were still there but not as strong based on the textbook.

50 years ago is the first time our planet gets introduced to the planet humans earth. They are pretty small compared to us. Just a bit over knee height from males on our planet. People from high ground, and air species greet them. They have big round heads and white bodies and blank black faces. They say it's the cloth for the space. My mom said humans hop to move. This event happens after just a few years we gain consciousness. This is based on my high school textbook.

The human called it ancient times before our species gained consciousness. They say we lived on a planet name Thauria. They are the ones who teach us how to talk, write and read. They give us technology that they say is fast and easy to implement on our planet. With their help, we have so much access to things beyond of our capable thinking. Like a box that can make us talk to people anywhere and a moving rock that can be ridden like a lower being.

Some humans live here for like a few years and just go back home after teaching us what they deem necessary for our growth. They are nice people.

When humans first arrived, they said that...

My video about history got interrupted when we arrive in front of my university dorm. It was a beautiful university with the style of geometrical international building design that some support or make using plantation. Using water and mineral that makes from the combination of water and land bending. Harmony and equilibrium from each other that neither outweigh the other. It is like the city in the fairy forest.

I can see some flies, some walks, some riding vehicles much more. Minding themselves.

Say goodbye to my parents and reload my stuff to my room. My roommate was in the middle of unpacking her stuff. Wait let me rephrase that, he mom unpacking everything, she just sitting there ordering her mom what to do and playing with her phone.

I was annoyed with her presence already but well let's not find trouble for the first day.

"My name is Michelle Gale Oceania. Refer to me as MiGalia."

I peeked from my book, looking at my roommate that announce her existence after her parents when back home. I don't know which part is more arrogant, the fact that she says her full name first, and not her referred name. It is not disrespectful to tell people your full name but it is more like humble bragging like looks, I am from Gale and Oceania family. See in my full name. Or more disrespectful that she talks loudly like I have a hearing aid.

Refer name can also be called professional name. Its names people who you are not close to you used. It creates since you were little by mostly your parents. Only family members or close friends use the first-name basis.

"Hi, my name is Luniail. What's your major?" Ignore will be disrespectful since I will live with her for a few months so lets us entertain this princess.

"I major in Water Estate Management." with a proud face. "What's your major?"

"I major in Land Architecture."

Somehow she looks offended.

"It's not that great."

Neither is her major that great too if she wanna compare.

She then talking how her aunt is top Water Estate Management, bla bla bla. I realize I shouldn't start this conversation. After she feels enough superior to me she goes out.

Thankfully she found a group of friends but unluckily her friends' group is also as annoying as hers. I don't understand the enjoyment of poking my face when I taking a nap
