Chapter 333: The True Meaning of Healing Magic! Part-1.
A Vast Grassland
Lush and tall grass, which is full of vitality, is growing around both sides of a giant river in this vast, flat land.
The warm wind breeze makes this whole area refreshing, and the bright sunlight adds an amazing look this scenery.
You can also see a giant mountain range in the distance, and the clear blue sky adds another charm to this place.
Standing on a hill under a giant tree shade, Riya couldn't help but smile excitedly.
"This place is so beautiful~ If only Link was here to see it with me..."
Riya can see various herbivorous animals wandering in the grass; she can also see a herd of sheep heading towards the riverbank.
"How come there are sheep here!? That's so strange..."
Just when Riya was surprised to see a herd of sheep, she suddenly heard an arrogant voice from the side complain loudly,
"Hmph! We are not ordinary sheep! Instead, you're the strange one! You two-legged creature!"
Riya was taken aback by the sudden appearance of that voice, and when she looked to her side, she noticed a giant sheep the size of a truck standing beside her.
"What!? A sheep that can talk!?"
A look of frustration appeared in the eyes of the giant sheep as it stomped its legs on the ground and said,
"I am not a sheep! I belong to the legendary sheep god race!! Don't mix me with those random sheep you see everywhere else! They are just failed inferior beings!"
A confused look appeared on Riya's face as she said,
"Doesn't that mean the same thing... You are still a sheep, right?"
The giant sheep was so frustrated at Riya's dumb behavior that it simply stopped arguing and said,
"Forget it; just call me Marco, 'The Sharp Teeth'!... and don't call me a sheep ever again! I hate being considered the same as those lowly beings! I am a true descendant of the legendary sheep god!!"
Riya was already quite confused after seeing a sheep the size of a truck talk like a human and praise itself, and after hearing that name, she simply lost track of things.
'Forget it; it doesn't matter...'
In the end, Riya stopped thinking too much so as not to overwork her brain and decided to go with the flow.
"So, Marco... Are you the leader of that herd that is approaching the riverbank?"
Marco nodded his head and said,
"Yes! Actually, all of them are my wives and children; it's my very own harem!! I have thirty wives, actually... Well, what can I say, I am just that charming and handsome, sigh~"
"When I look at my image in the river, I think, How can someone as charming as me exist in this world? Sigh, I truly am unique~"
Ignoring all that self-praise, Riya asked,
"By the way, where is this place? I suddenly appeared to her out of nowhere; I don't even know where this place is..."
Marco raised his head high and said in a proud tone,
"Hehe, I knew that you two-legged creature is also a lowly being; you don't even know what this place is... This is the western plain located just a few kilometers away from the frozen mountaintops of the Ice Dragons..."
Hearing those words, Riya asked,
"Er... how far away is this place from the Dragon Palace in the city of those dragon men?"
The sheep contemplated for a moment and then said it in an unsure tone.
"I-it is far away, likely thousands of kilometers away!"
Riya tilted her head in confusion and asked,
"You haven't been there?"
Marco hesitated and talked in a panicked voice,
"O-of course I have been there! I am the legendary Marco! I will one day become a divine sheep! I know everything in the world!"
Riya nodded her head and stopped talking about that matter.
'Sigh, it seems I am really far away from the palace, which means it will take a few days for Link and others to find me...'
Riya doesn't know that the others also got teleported like her, so she thinks that only she got teleported to the wrong place, and the others will come looking for her soon.
Moreover, as long as she has the engagement ring on her finger, Link can always track her location and see if she's doing okay, so she wasn't worried about him not being able to find
her.
'But what do I do now? I guess I will need to sleep on the ground for the next few days... Fortunately, I brought plenty of candies with me in the space ring...'
'Perhaps I should wander around and see what's unique about this place...'
While Riya was contemplating her next plans in her mind, Marco suddenly said,
"Ah, my herd went so far away while I was busy talking to you; I need to leave now! My wife
will get angry if I leave for too long! I am the most handsome after all!"
Just when Marco was about to leave, Riya suddenly jumped up, sat on his fluffy back, and said, "Good, take me with you too, then. Consider me a guest in your giant family!"
Marco immediately shouted at Riya and said,
"Oi! How dare a lowly two-legged creature sit on the back of 'I' the legendary Marco! Get
down!"
Suddenly, Riya pulled out a few candies from her space ring and said,
"You see these? These are extremely powerful explosives; if you don't want me to throw them
on you and your 'Harem'... then be honest and show me around!"
Riya once saw a movie where the main character bluffed his enemies to do his bidding, and now she's trying the same thing here.
The poor sheep guy had no choice after hearing Riya's words; he gritted his teeth and said,
"Ugh, to think 'I' the great Marco will fall for the tricks of the lowly being one day... how
unfortunate!"
"Just wait, you two-legged creature! I will never forget this humiliation!"
Riya, on the other hand, said,
"Are you moving or not? The explosives seem to be eager to jump on you~"
Marco sighed at those words and started to head towards the riverbank with Riya on his back.
Seeing that Marco finally agreed, Riya smirked a bit, laid down on Marco's fluffy back, and started nibbling on her candies in secret.
The poor sheep guy carried Riya on her back and directly bypassed his herd to head ahead
alone.
He didn't want his beloved family to come into contact with this terrifying two-legged creature that has several explosives in her hand.
Later, Marco noticed that Riya was eating those explosives and was even more terrified.
'T-this creature can eat explosives!? Where did such a monster come from in this isolated
place!!!
Marco hurried his steps and reached the riverbank after a few minutes.
He panted heavily, as he had practically just run here at full speed, as he wanted to get rid of
this dangerous monster as early as possible.
"Okay, here is the riverbank; now I am leaving! Don't you dare come any closer to me and my
herd from now on, okay?"
Risa shook her head and said,
"What? Why are you leaving so early? We still have to cross the river, though!"
Marco panicked at those words and said,
"N-no, impossible! Are you insane? A group of bloodthirsty crocodiles live in this river; I only
dare wander around the shore! If I go too deep, they will eat me!"
Riya tilted her head in confusion and said,
"But aren't you the legendary Marco? Even the legendary Marco fears a crocodile?"
Even after hearing Riya's words, Marco refused to give in.
"No! I am strong, but not delusional! I won't go in the water; that's not my territory, and it's
rude to interfere with others's territory, okay?"
Just when Marco and Riya were having a debate, a giant crocodile jumped out of the river and
tried to attack Riya.
Riya, unfazed, immediately threw the box of candies she was holding into the crocodile's open mouth, causing it to choke on the hard box and suffocate to death.
The dead crocodile's body started to float on the river, and even the other crocodiles that were
lurking nearby ran away after seeing their comrade die so miserably.
Marco was so shocked by everything that his legs started to tremble like crazy.
'S-she killed a crocodile so easily!? She's a terrifying beast! A true monster!!' Marco dared not delay anymore; he agreed to Riya's words and jumped on the floating body of
the dead crocodile, then jumped to the other side of the river.
He didn't want to die a miserable death like that poor crocodile, so he had no choice but to carry Riya on his back and do as she said.
'Ah, what an unlucky day it is today! I shouldn't have bothered to go and talk to her! It would have been so much better if I just kept chewing on the juicy grass. Why did I even get involved
with this monster...'
Riya smiled happily and patted Marco's back while saying,
"Good! Just keep going like this! Go Go Big sheep!"
