Herding just under a hundred sheep was exhausting enough—how was he supposed to drive over thirty thousand all the way back to the city? That would be impossible!
"Where did such a massive flock even come from?" Gorren couldn't wrap his head around it. But one thing he was sure of: the sheep in the underground world had to be connected to Elf King transformation magic.
Though legend claimed that such magic could only shapeshift themselves, the elves had remained hidden for so many years and being reduced to just under a thousand population. Maybe they had secretly advanced their magic.
"A vast number of sheep… in the underground territory… Could it be that they were once goblins?"
His expression darkened. The human-made gold and silver artifacts he had seen in Renjiro's palace further confirmed his suspicion. The goblins of the Forest had always been notorious for ambushing human merchant caravans.
