Revealing

I knew that they knew about it. I was trying so hard to gain extra skills. Of course they would figure out that I was matching them with my original skill.

" Hey hey what kind of skill is it ? " Zhira, the only kid at the table, asked very kid-like. I guess they would know sooner or later so I decided to tell them.

" I can create weapons and armors from any element " I described the fake details about my skill. It was a risk though ! If Sekhmet sister's analysis could see through edit I would be considered a liar.

Their reactions were distinct. Father had just a slight change in his expression, Zhira showed a full on ear to ear smile, mother and granny looked at me like i was their opponent in battle, trying to figure me out i guess. Then grandma broke the silence,

" What does element mean ? "

Huh ? ohh yeah element was english word there was no translation of that word in common language.

" Ohh it means material or stuff like metal and rocks and crystal etc. " I tried my best to explain.

" From any material you said right ? " asked grandmother.

" Yes " I said.

" Even gold ? " Granny was very keen on details. I see.

" Yes " I confessed.

" Wait !! Was that why you were asking for gold coins the other day ? " Asked my surprised mother.

" Yes " I feel like I haven't been saying anything other than yes for a while.

" Did you succeed ? " Ohh so you were interested. Father was playing it cool I see.

" It takes a lot of magicules even for small quantities but yes I did succeed. "

They all stopped eating. Now everyone was truly surprised. Good this is what I had expected.

" This girl alone can raise a region out of debt...we must make the details of her skill secret. " Said granny. Father and mother both nodded.

" Surely there must be other people who can create any element in some form or amount ? " I asked. I did not expect it to be this serious.

" Creation type skills are rare. There was once a man with skill like yours but he was only just being able to create pure iron. And three regions fought for 5 years over him. In the end he killed himself." Father said.

" Seriously !!?? " Now it was my turn to be surprised as hell. That makes my future sound too dark...

" It's fine as long as people don't know about gold. For just iron no one would dare raise their swords againsts a family member of waccar. The person you just heard about was a commoner born on the border of two regions." Granny said smiling.

Man grandma was kinda cold. But I feel much better now.

" Hey! hey! What kind of weapons can you create ? " Zhira was completely oblivious to the weight of conversation.

" Anything I can imagine and be able to shape it. " I replied anyway.

" How much magicules does gold cost ? " Father finally asked the most important question.

" 1400 for one kilogram. " I said.

" How much have you made at once ? " Oye aren't you just too interested here.

" I haven't tried making it in big quantities but once I had made a sword weighing at least 4 kg. "

They were looking at me like I might have said that i was a spy. Oye aren't you guys overreacting now ??

" How many magicules do you have ? " Asked my mother.

Ohh yeah scheming father must have done this on purpose to know my magicules capacity. But didn't waccar's have 4k each ? Why would he need to do this ? Was I just being stupid ?

" 8000 " I said.

" eightttt...thousand !!?? " she almost spilled her vine.

" That's the highest even among us." Said granny. Father looked a bit uncomfortable too.

" Base level having 8000 magicules....that could become a monstrous amount when paired with magicule boosting and efficiency skills… " said mother. I understood her feelings she only had 1000 like everyone else.

" Do you have an earth affinity ? " Asked father.

" Yes " ohh that should make mother happy a little.

" So at last someone has it... " Said granny.

" What do you mean ?" I asked.

" Waccar's are always blessed with fire, wind and lightning affinities. Prominent Earth affinity is not compatible with waccar genes. " Explained mother.

" You mean they can't be together with fire or lightning ? " I was now intrigued.

" No that's not it. For future development in skills most nobles have affinities that they could combine and make their own style. Except when a trial comes but that's only with light and dark affinity(50% - 50%). But in two affinities that they have, one is less prominent than the other, mostly it's like 70% - 30% So earth is more prominent and it mostly comes in 70% side. Waccar's almost never get it. " Explained father.

" But I have both…. " I revealed, well they were gonna know in two days anyway.

" What !!!!!????? " They all shouted together.

" You have two conflicting affinities ? " Asked father with a serious face.

I guess having two opposite affinities was not something normal. But if two were not normal what about four ? How do I even see what percentage they are in ? When I used all affinities felt equal to use to me. I guess telling my family might solve some of my queries ?

" I actually have four…. " I could not hide my affinities in stats so they will know it sooner or later. At least this way they will be prepared at the revealing ceremony. Or do something to hide it i guess.

" That can't be possible…"

" That's unheard of…."

" Maybe some mistake in your translation…? "

Granny, mother and lastly father all had doubts. I could understand. So I tried to be modest and said…

" Maybe it is wrong… "

" Didn't you say she could translate better than Oriaso ? " Asked my grandma not to me but to father. I guess they talked about me. Oriaso was my tutor.

" She can…" Father was unsure on what to say.

" Maybe I could look at your affinities to see how it's written. To see If my translation is right or not…? " I suggested. I also wanted to see what skills they had.

" Yes it would clear all doubt… who would let her…?" Father avoided it like a pro. Just what you would expect from a schemer.

" Then I would like to give it a try…" Said my mother.
