"There was a power struggle between n and won three decades ago." Zaque started, tapping the table with his middle finger.
"It was so bad that a scientist had to create sothing to divert the attention of the two genders away from the other. There was a woman who fell in love with a man, but since the war between the two genders was still ongoing— they had no choice except to keep their relationship a secret. That's when a scientist appeared and experinted on the couple who volunteered which created us, the diators." The red haired man looked at Coco's face to gauge her reaction, but he saw nothing bad except for curiosity.
"I didn't know that mankind tried to fight themselves on the verge of ruin.. Touche. It was like that in my world too, politicians are the ones who kill the citizens and make their life worse than street dogs." Coco comnted, still sitting on the floor which was a tre away from Zaque and Heiren, "Anyways, please continue."
Zaque cleared his throat, "Right.. The diators acted as the peace treaty between two genders. We have the body of a man, but our interiors are similar to both gender which allows us to give birth—"
"So like an oga, alpha, and beta?" Coco interrupted him with sparkling eyes, "I didn't know that they actually existed! Oh my god! I was reading about it just before I finished my thesis, too! Man, what are the odds, huh?"
"Pardon?" Zaque blurted out.
"Ah, it's nothing." She waved her hand dismissively before gesturing for him to continue his lesson.
"Okay.." He cleared his throat again and smiled at her which was a warning for her to stay quiet, "Due to the declining population between n and won, diators started to take over half of the continent's population. n refused to bed won and vice versa. Since diators can give birth to a child no matter who they get partnered with— as long as they are not diators— they will be able to house a child in their womb. Won lost their ability to give birth so the responsibility fell to diators since then."
Coco raised her hand like a child waiting for her teacher to call her so Zaque shut his lips and nodded at her. "Does that an diators only have the body of n?"
"Fortunately, no. There are female diators, but they are very rare. I haven't encountered one for years after my mother, she was a diator and gave birth to . Female diators are rare because their survival possibility decreases to ten percent after giving birth unlike male diators." Zaque stared blankly at Coco, as if analysing her.
"That's brutal.." Coco murmured as she frowned. How can soone's possibility to live go down just like that after giving birth? It's scary to think about, but she can't do anything about it because that's how this world works.
"Over the past decade, the number of n and won dwindled so diators have no choice, but to get married off. diators like us have to deal with their husband's or wife's antics, temper, and decisions in life once they get married." Heiren said with a scoff.
"n and won will rule over the household while the diators lower their heads if they don't want to get kicked out. We're also weaker when it cos to strength. Hence, the reason why we can't fight back." Heiren finished the lesson regarding this world.
"That's tragic.." Coco comnted under her breath, eyes staring on the floor as she let the information sink in.
"Don't worry too much, Coco! You already promised them their freedom once you paid them back! You said you'll give them jobs and fix this rundown house, right? Don't feel bad!" Lala was quick to comfort the depressed human.
So it's really like Ogaverse, the only difference is that the diators are the ones that will carry the child no matter the circumstances. Coco sighed deeply and rubbed the back of her head, she could feel a headache coming from the information she had just heard.
"Okay." Coco said and stood up from the floor. She patted the dust off of her pants and nodded her head towards the two, "I learned a lot. Thank you. I know I said that I'll fix this house first, but it seems like it's more important to pay off my debts first. I can't have them going after you guys, I'll try to bring ho so food I will get while I'm out so try to lessen your trip outside as much as possible— until I pay off my debt at least."
Zaque and Heiren watched her walk towards the door. Their eyes widened in shock when she took out sothing from pocket and threw it over to the table. The contents of the bag spilled all over— shining and sparkling gold and silver coins clattered loudly.
"Have that for this week's budget. You guys don't have to think about ." She smiled at them and waved them goodbye, "I'll be back to give you more!"
She closed the door and stretched her arms. She let out a yawn, the sun is up in the sky and is blaring its hotness onto the people around her.
"Well, it looks like we'll go back to the forest, Lala." Coco smiled at the fairy who pouted at her.
"I don't like the fact that they still hate you when you tell them the truth that you're not the old Coco! How unforgiving can they be?!" Lala stomped her small feet in the air as she fud, Coco could only laugh at her temper tantrum because it's quite an adorable sight to see a fairy like that.
"I can't bla them. They did suffer a lot because of the old Coco." Coco stated, laughing under her breath when Lala smacked her.
"Let's plant lots of fruits, flowers, and vegetables to sell! Let's earn lots of money!"
