"However, because my witchcraft was involved, strictly speaking, it was also my child."

"So I set a price from the very beginning."

"That child will also call me godmother and will need to serve me."

"I...don't have any bad intentions, I just want a child so I won't be so lonely."

“However, they changed their minds.” The witch was not surprised by this.

To outsiders, no witch is trustworthy.

After all, the essence of witchcraft is to choose a moral sphere, define it with personal power, and then manipulate it.

This is blatantly exploiting loopholes in morality and law.

Such people do not trust morality, therefore the morally upright party can target the other party in any way.

The same was true for the couple; after they changed their minds, they invited a hero to defeat the witch.

They did not want their offspring to associate with people like witches.

That is a disgrace.

The couple in question were the king and queen of a neighboring country.

Their daughter was naturally a princess from a neighboring country.

The witch fled under these circumstances, naturally she couldn't swallow her anger.

So he used his witchcraft to take away the princess from the neighboring country and raise her in a tall tower.

Because the princess was a product of witchcraft, she also possessed some characteristics of witchcraft. The things she was addicted to would continue to increase, which was manifested in the fact that the princess's hair continued to grow steadily.

Although the witch was reluctant for the princess to leave, she was indeed quite kind to her.

“Until one day, a prince came and secretly made contact with my daughter.”

"Then my lovely daughter changed."

"The disgust in her eyes was impossible to hide."

“I wanted my daughter to be unaffected by those things, but I underestimated them.”

"She used her hair to meet that person in secret, then secretly contacted her biological parents, sought the fairy's help, and then helped the prince try to kill me again."

"No matter how good I am to her, it's useless. I am no longer her mother, but just a lowly and despicable monster."

"She can betray me without any burden."

“You are the same now,” the witch said, looking at the soldier.

“Your appearance can actually be seen as a kind of ‘witchcraft,’ a bestial curse triggered by carnal desire. You cursed yourself because you couldn’t forgive yourself.”

"Over time, you will also carry this force of 'violating' moral laws within you."

"Once the laws of morality begin to truly punish you, your sorcery and beast-like curse will be fully activated."

"At that time, morality and law will target you, and everyone will be able to sense that 'forbidden' aura about you."

"You want to marry a princess in this way?"

“A wedding that is recognized and morally approved is not so simple,” the witch said seriously.

"You need to gain the approval of her parents, and also the approval of the general public."

"Your actions are essentially challenging another enormous morality—identity morality."

"No matter what, I will do it," the soldier said firmly.

He stood up, and his whole body had become much larger.

The witch's initiation into witchcraft led the soldier to realize his own witchcraft—the curse of bestial desire.

He stirred up the moral realm of bodily desires, and those views that considered bodily desires immoral now became power, which was added to him through the curse.

This is a self-centered usage; in reality, he could also curse another person, who would transform into a 'beast' when dominated by bodily desires.

At that time, the curse was a true curse. The cursed person, apart from still possessing human intelligence and certain human abilities, would be like an ordinary animal in other aspects.

Unlike him, who possessed terrifying physical strength due to his beast-like transformation.

Of course, he still needs to study for some time how to cast curses on others.

“Little shepherd, you don’t need to come with me anymore.” After gaining power, the soldier thought for a moment and said, “Your current moral dilemma isn’t that great.”

“I can take all the blame and claim that you were coerced by me.”

"In this way, your hometown people will not be implicated."

"You will still be able to return to your daily life," the soldier said earnestly.

That's right, the shepherd can still turn back at this moment.

His only moral dilemma was that by helping the soldiers, he indirectly caused the old carpenter's death.

Once he lets go of this, the shepherd can become a normal person again.

"No need," the shepherd shook his head, feeling three blessings upon him.

One is to 'receive' blessings; as long as one remains simple and honest, one can receive help from others.

The second blessing is for 'love'. As long as one truly wants to find someone to love, then those who are not sincere will make him wary.

The third blessing is 'success'. As long as one does not become obsessed with fame and fortune, one can actually achieve success.

However, at this moment, all three blessings are teetering on the brink of collapse.

But these blessings are still effective.

Having regained his composure, the shepherd looked at the soldier and said seriously, "I can't pretend that none of this happened and then deceive myself by handing everything over to you."

"I want to change the flaws in moral laws."

"Make everything right."

Chapter 576 In the Name of God

"The world is just like this, how can it be changed?" The witch laughed and denied the shepherd's naiveté.

"You don't actually believe in that so-called Nia god, do you?"

The witch then revealed some information about the god Nia.

Nia is a real, existing entity.

This is recorded in some 'ancient books'.

However, it can be seen from these ancient texts that Nia herself was a 'moral saint'.

"Isn't this good?" The shepherd frowned, not understanding why the witch spoke of Nia with such disdain.

“If he is only a hero, or a king, then I will trust him completely.”

“But as a god, I think he is unqualified,” the witch clearly pointed out the problem.

“After creating life in the beginning, the god Nia began to establish moral laws.”

"During that period, the human population was not large, and everyone basically maintained a small village lifestyle, so life was generally peaceful and happy."

"But as time went on, more and more people appeared."

“At this time, the goddess Nia began to assist people in production through moral laws.”

"The blessing system also emerged around that time."

"That's why 'wealth' grows so quickly, and desires grow along with it."

“At this point, Nia revealed his own problem—he was morally blackmailed by others.”

"That's right. Some people believe that the world should be a better place and that we need a capable person to manage everyone and bring out the potential of all life."

"Otherwise, if everyone lives together in chaos, without any system or anyone to guide them, humanity will only waste its potential."

"For some unknown reason, Nia granted the other party's request."

"And so the Holy Kingdom of Nya was established."

The witch had lived for a very long time and had a clear understanding of various historical events.

"At first, the emergence of the kingdom did indeed make the whole world a better place."

"Under the arrangement of the person who made the suggestion, namely the first king, the whole world became more and more prosperous, and people's lives got better and better."

"And that's how the problem arose."

“The new generation of agents should inherit the assets of the previous generation.”

"After all, these things were earned by their parents through hard work, and it is morally right for them to inherit them."

"And that is precisely why power began to spiral out of control."

“Signs of identity morality have emerged.”

"Those who have more seem to naturally look down on those who don't have enough."

"In their words, my parents worked hard to create all of this, while your parents must have been lazy, not hardworking enough, and lacked high moral character, which is why they don't have this wealth and power."

"This kind of contempt ignores all other conditions and begins to match morality with wealth and status."

"As a result, numerous problems arose in the governance of morality."

"The first king of the kingdom died in a conspiracy, and his descendants were unable to keep others in check, so the duchy came into being."

"The Holy Nya Kingdom has also become the current Holy Nya United Kingdom."

“During this process, Nia did consider intervening, but he exposed his weakness beforehand. He was too moral, so he couldn’t take action if someone tried to morally blackmail him.”

"The most famous one is a duchy king who connects with the entire nation through his blessing ability."

“He threatened the god Nia that if anyone interfered with his rule, he would kill everyone.”

"So the goddess Nia chose to give up."

After hearing the witch's words, the shepherd was stunned and asked, "Why did he threaten the entire nation without violating any moral or legal rules?"

"Why can't Nia, the god who possesses the power to create morality and law, use a stronger force to dispel the opponent's power?"

According to the information the shepherd currently has, the power of morality and law is very strong. Since the god Nia was able to create such power, surely he wouldn't be unable to sever the connection and then kill someone?

Or is it that Nia's morality is so corrupt that she can't bear to kill such a dangerous person?

"Gagagagagaga, let me tell you a secret," the witch said with a grotesque laugh. "The world's first witchcraft is called 'In the Name of God.'"

"That king defined divine authority according to his personal understanding, and thus created royal authority."

"The essence of royal power and titles is witchcraft."

"Therefore, in the Holy Kingdom of Nya, the higher one's rank, the less one is affected by moral laws."

"Furthermore, this kind of witchcraft that extends divine authority represents the power of privilege, allowing them to be unaffected by laws and to avoid the taboo aura that we possess."

"Unless the nobility are attacked by public opinion and morality, and their morals are strongly provoked, it is possible to tear through their protection."

"Moral laws are thus rendered ineffective, and the only thing the king needs to consider is public morality."

"In other words, don't be too absurd and provoke public outrage."

"As for why the god Nia didn't use even stronger power to break their power, I'm not quite sure either."

"It's simply because I know it might be related to some danger that even the god Nia fears." The witch was born during the time of the Holy Kingdom of Nia.

There were some problems back then, but none were as serious as they are now.

Before the kingdom was established, those people lived with the god Nia and received much information from her.

However, this information is now blocked.

People have lost information from before the Kingdom era, and even information from before the United States is becoming blurred.

The pre-kingdom history she possessed was obtained through contact with other 'wizards'.

"I see?" The shepherd was slightly stunned upon hearing this news.

Meanwhile, the little figure inside his body was also thinking.

These people didn't know, but he did.
