Chapter 208 - Day 208: Wooly festival (II)

"Instructors?" That was the first thing Sakuya said when she heard Blake's question, she was about to tell him that was something anyone knew, but at the same time she remembered Blake's situation and it all made sense to her. "It's true, sometimes I forget that you suffer from amnesia… Let me explain."

Sakuya had dropped her defiant attitude from before to start thinking of the perfect words to say. Blake was waiting for the explanation, and although the noise of the place could still be heard, they had no problem communicating with each other.

"In short, the instructors are the people who can handle and bond with the monsters." Sakuya's words were quite simple, and only with that Blake was able to get an idea since Gaius had explained a little about that aspect.

In general, anyone could become an instructor if they really dedicated themselves to it, what characterized them was the ability to tame and command monsters, this either because they were able to form some bond with them, mainly making use of their runic energy in form of instructions or orders.

So, it could be said that every person who was close to monsters should be an instructor even if their level in this field was low since it also relied a lot on the amount of runic energy to try to tame powerful monsters.

Although in most cases the instructors took the simple role of being farmers specialized in obtaining raw materials provided by the monsters, one of these being the reasons why it was not too complicated to become an instructor, some instructors took a completely different path.

It was quite obvious that the monsters had quite unique characteristics, and that in many cases they would be even more powerful than most people, so there were also the instructors who made use of them to fight their battles or serve as support for that very thing, being that these types of instructors concentrated on making their fellow monsters part of their forces.

The instructors had a very good reputation all over the world, not only because a large part of the world's economy depended on the products that the monsters will produce since they were always of much better quality than that of farm animals, but also because they were always helpful in controlling monsters near towns and cities, although it took a very high level in that field to provide adequate help.

Sakuya explained something like that to Blake, but it was enough for him to understand everything now.

"That's why I was asking you if you didn't know the girl who sent the shop Alana, being friends with an instructor is just as beneficial as being friends with a blacksmith or alchemist." Sakuya expressed her honest thoughts on the matter once she made sure Blake had no more questions.

Blake was about to thank Sakuya for all the information she provided, but before that, Wells's voice was heard again in the room, making him realize that several minutes had already passed since the last announcement.

"Okay, I think we're ready to start the event, so like every year, I'll let the instructor explain the important points." And after he said that, Wells stopped being the center of attention once he was allowed to Nana took it again, though from what Blake could tell, she seemed to have gotten over the nervous feeling from the first time.

"Hello everyone again." Her soft voice filled the place again at the same time that she received the greetings of those present. "I would like to thank you all again, but I know that perhaps I am exaggerating a bit, so we better go to what matters to us."

Nana waited for all attention to return to her again.

"As you know, a couple of woolies will be present at this event, I'll be in charge of instructing them so that no accident or something like that happens, although they are quite friendly if you give yourself the chance to meet them, hehe." Nana couldn't help but laugh at that moment as she remembered how adorable woolies were, although she was a little embarrassed realizing that she had done that unconsciously, no one laughed because of that, even some young boys were captivated by her attitude, but that scene was not It took too long as she came back with her explanation. "One of these woolies is quite special, its wool has grown too long all this time and the spring heat is enough to make it spend all day under the shade so that your job is to cut all that wool that is on it, for this, we have prepared some special tools that carry an array of the wind element that is enough to cut the wool, so don't will in no way harm the little monsters."

Nana had studied all of this, especially since it was one of the requirements that her father had set for her to be able to take charge of the event this time, and noticing that the attention was still on her without being interrupted, any trace of nervousness completely disappeared.

"The winners will be the participants who manage to obtain the most amount of wool and store it in the bags that will be delivered to them." As Nana said that, Blake realized that Shara was in charge of delivering that object once he saw that was obviously the same as the ones he already knew. "It seems simple, right?"

Everyone nodded to his question, most of them fully understood what they were up against, and unlike this year's new entrants, those who already knew the event were more aware that one's own ability was very important, especially if you knew dodge pretty well.

"If there are no more questions, then the time has come…" Nana's words were quite obvious about what was coming next, and accompanying her, everyone's voices were heard in unison as excitement overflowed everywhere.

"Let the real festival begin!"
