For now, I follow my teacher.
We reach a nearby area where another young man is trying to tame a big lizard.
"These are extremely popular with the students."
[Is it because of how sturdy they are? This way they won't die as easily leaving their tamer defenseless. This is it, right?]
"Nope, they are just trying to be copycats. Every time there is a successful tamer appearing, the youngsters try to copy him."
Oh, I see. He's talking about that guy I met in the sewers!
[Does that mean that ice elementals are popular too?]
"No way, these can only be found in a disaster zone. Most of these students might be dumb but they won't try their luck in such a dangerous place recklessly."
Guess it makes sense. I really should be careful the next time I stumble upon one such area.
The guy in there seems to be in the process of taming the creature.
I'm not sure if he has noticed us or not but he doesn't seem to pay us any attention.
