"Oh, sorry, I didn't know someone else was here, I hope I didn't scare you, assistant." Although Blake was still a bit upset because he thought that some supernatural being had appeared to curse him, he managed to calm down enough when he realized who it was actually.
"Pant... Don't worry... Pant... You just surprised me, but what are you doing here, Daria?" The sudden scare had left its mark and Blake had to recover from it.
"I was in the forest looking for materials to inspire me for some new work, but then I saw a huge doorway in the ground and my artist instincts kicked in making it impossible to ignore it, and I wasn't wrong, the design of this place and the strange symbols everywhere are something I've never seen before." That explanation was enough for Blake to understand that Daria had gotten there by pure chance.
"It's all new to me too, I just discovered this place after moving some strange statues, although now that I think about it, I think it was risky, I was lucky that there were no traps or something like that, but getting here It looks like I won't be able to go any further." Blake said that while directing his gaze towards the totally destroyed bridge.
"Hm, yes, I see the reason, it's also a bit disappointing, I'm sure there will be even more amazing things ahead."
"Yes, too bad we can't build a bridge." Blake was still immersed in thinking of a way to easily cross and the idea of a bridge was the most viable, but not having the materials or the knowledge to do so had totally ruled it out.
"Wait, what did you just say?"
"Huh, build a bridge?" And as Blake continued to see how the town artist began to babble strange things that were impossible to understand and a bright look appeared in her eyes, a well-known emotion came out of her as she let out her characteristic scream surprising Blake again.
"Rainbow! That's right, how could I not see it before! It's true that just making a bridge seems very simple, but I'm an artist, and a great artist can make art out of anything, I can feel like the inspiration runs through my veins, just leave it to me, dear assistant, I will build the best bridge you have ever seen!" That sudden burst of determination hit Blake directly, causing him to put all his effort into capturing everything that just came out of the artist and understanding that the problem he had a few moments ago might be solved when he least expects it.
"Are you sure?"
"Of course, I already have the image in my mind, this will be one of my best works, also I don't need you to look for the materials, I already have everything I need at home so you can rest easy!"
"Wouldn't you need any other help? I really have nothing to do."
"Don't worry, I can't let someone see my work before I finish it, it goes against my beliefs as an artist, and I swear to you of all the elves that you will never see anything like it in your entire life!" Noticing the excitement, she was emanating, Blake could only agree with the screams that came from her, so he thought about asking if he could at least help her get the materials, but just then he remembered what she had said and felt weird for some reason.
"Wait, did you say elves?"
"Of course, what better way to give you my word than to swear it to you by my own kind, and if anything, elves do is never go back on their promises, I don't have these ears for nothing, you know?!" Daria's statement made Blake even more confused.
"So... Are you an elf?"
"Of course! Have you never seen one before?"
"Actually, I think it's the first time, I had noticed that your ears were a bit long, but I didn't know it was because you are an elf." Blake didn't know exactly what to say, something he wasn't used to was the different races that existed in the world, the human race was not strange to him since he considered himself as one, but due to his memory loss, he did not know what exact characteristics the other races had, but he was very interested in them.
"Oh, that's really interesting, so it's my duty to show how magnificent my species is so as not to leave a bad impression on you, don't worry about anything else, I don't know how long it will take me to finish it, but you can go take care of other things, I'll come looking for you when my work is finished." But before Blake asked if it really wasn't going to be a problem, he felt how the smiling elf had taken his arm and thrown him out of the ruins only to hear the screams of this in the distance. "Yes! Inspiration... I can feel it! RAINBOW!!"
"Haha... It's like a storm..." Noting that he hadn't planned anything else to do, Blake teleported to the edge of the forest and thought about going to see if he could run a request to pass the time, when he arrived just in front of the bulletin board, he saw the only sheet on it and took it to make the system sound again in his head.
[Fishing!
Client: Carmen.
Do you want to learn how to fish, then I am your master!]
'Is this a request? It seems more like some kind of advertisement.' But despite how unique the information was, Blake kept his thoughts to himself and headed to the place where he would most likely find the extroverted green-haired girl, and as if she knew, a scream reached his ears just as he was near the lake.
"Great! You came quickly! That tells me you're going to be a great apprentice!"
"I see you were already prepared, what exactly is the request about, Carmen?" Without wasting time, Blake searched for a detailed explanation of what exactly he had to do.
"Hey! Didn't you see the board? From today I'm your master when it comes to fishing!"
"Uh... Yeah, I think I forgot that part..."
"Did you forget that part...? Sigh... Then I guess you really have a long way to go, apprentice... Well, I'll let that go for today, now that you are here, I will show you the complete beauty that there is in the art of fishing! Are you ready, apprentice!"
"Er... Yes, master!"
He didn't know why, but Blake had gradually fallen into the situation he was going through and his subconscious chose to play along with the green-haired girl in front of him.
