According to this world's beliefs, this goddess Nia is very likely the 'creator' of this world.
"Is it yet another creator, similar to a Spirit Lord?"
Nems was undoubtedly an enlightened creator who disdained the tricks of blocking information and fooling the masses to gain a sense of mystery.
He believes that if a person loses credibility simply because of some public information being exposed, then he has undoubtedly failed.
Therefore, in Nemes's Garden World, information about the Creator can be freely exchanged.
The little people who have infiltrated this world are undoubtedly elites. He understands very well that the so-called creators are nothing more than some more powerful beings. These beings can be respected for their power, but they should never be considered exceptionally great because of this respect.
Just like Adrian, that kind of vile system makes even the most despicable people feel that their intrusion doesn't involve much of a moral problem.
Of course, the dwarves would not use this to glorify their invasion.
This is a war of genocide, and they can no longer concern themselves with the moral issues involved.
This is why they know information about many other creators of the world.
In the world of the Spirit Race, the Spirit Lord's lack of responsibility allowed the Spirit Race to seize most of the world's power.
This is why the Eldar, when it doesn't concern them, act irresponsibly and are always ready to abandon their allies and run away.
In this respect, Hayes seemed to have some difficulty controlling the spirits under his command.
In this fairytale-like world, the power system is clearly a blessing built upon morality and law.
However, now, due to the separation between noble and commoner status, morality has also become class-based based on different statuses.
This inherent situation necessarily represents a break from the key power system of morality and law.
The fact that the god Nia wanted to make changes shows that this division inevitably affected the stability of the world to some extent.
However, the so-called God Nia has lost control of this world to some extent. As the creator, she wanted to change the rules, but her idea was rejected by a group of life forms she created.
There's a lot of information revealed here.
The little man was pondering the information behind the world, while the shepherd and the soldier were at a loss for what to do.
"No, I still have to go save the princess." The soldier shook his head; he wasn't one to give up easily.
The princess entrusted everything to him last night, and he couldn't possibly ignore it.
"If I could, I would like to wake the princess with a kiss and then take her away from here," the soldier said earnestly.
The shepherd beside him nodded. Although he also wanted to marry the princess, since the soldier was already with her, he could only offer his blessings and was willing to help in the process.
Just then, another commotion arose outside.
It turned out that as the curse came true, the king issued a decree that princes from all countries could try to awaken the princess with a kiss.
Once the princess awakens, he will not only betroth her to her, but also abdicate and give her the throne.
This news immediately attracted a lot of attention.
The Holy Nya Federation is not very large.
Each principality was not very large.
For example, the territory of this principality is just this one city and some surrounding villages.
In this situation, news spreads exceptionally fast.
It's estimated that people in other countries will know about this news within a few days.
And princes and princesses are also exceptionally 'abundant'.
In some countries, the king has several sons, but generally only one of these sons can become the new king.
The other princes could only leave 'politely'.
In such circumstances, it would be perfectly normal to encounter a prince while traveling.
Therefore, these princes would not give up the opportunity to obtain the throne.
Upon hearing this news, the soldiers became even more anxious.
He didn't want that beautiful princess to be 'kissed' by so many people.
"Given the current situation, I can only try to steal the princess out in the next few days!" the soldier said earnestly.
From the shepherd's perspective, the little man sees the soldier not only as ugly as before, but as even more handsome.
"Indeed, this moral standard, though seemingly a simple moral view, is indeed true."
"But often, morality cannot represent everything."
In my mind, stealing is definitely not a morally acceptable thing.
Especially stealing people.
However, the soldiers wouldn't have any questions about this at the moment, because true love conquers all.
Because it was true love, even if the soldier forcibly took the princess, an unconscious woman, away from her parents, he would not face moral or legal punishment.
They might even receive some 'reward' and 'blessing' for such an act of self-sacrifice for love.
But the little man who witnessed this scene began to question whether there was really true love between the soldier and the princess.
The soldier and the princess only spent one night together.
From a purely spiritual perspective, they were simply brought together by desire.
Is true love something that appears so easily?
Although the Dwarf race reproduces by laying eggs, they also have partners.
The concept and emotion of love will naturally be brought up as people interact with each other.
Many true loves are undoubtedly paying the price for desires and impulses.
The soldier may genuinely believe he loves the princess, but in reality, it may just be a matter of lust.
Of course, the little people don't understand the humans in this world very well; they might really be the kind of people who are obsessed with love.
It's possible that true love can form even after just one meeting and not even understanding each other's hearts.
In this respect, petty people hold a negative attitude.
"If the soldier really kidnapped the princess, he would find that his true love's kiss could not wake her up."
"So, at that point, will the soldier's moral compass collapse as a result?"
"And if a soldier's self-perception becomes problematic, will he be subject to moral and legal punishment?"
The little man is full of a desire to explore.
At this moment, the shepherd was also moved by this true love and decided to help the soldiers.
The old carpenter, seeing this, sighed and then pulled the shepherd aside.
"Grandpa Carpenter, is something the matter?"
"Grandpa, I have no children, but I will treat you as my own child."
“I won’t stop you from doing these things, but I also have something to give you.” The old carpenter lovingly stroked the shepherd’s head.
Then he said seriously.
"Back then, I intimidated those people by talking big, and in doing so, I also received some blessings related to talking big."
"I've decided to pass this blessing on to you."
"May you be honest from now on, then your body will be like a puppet, impervious to damage, and can be replaced at any time."
Chapter 570 The Puppet of Happiness
"Of course, if you lie, your body will show the characteristics of a real puppet, which will expose your lie," the old carpenter said as he blessed the shepherd.
Just then, a guard knocked on the door.
The old carpenter arrived at the door, and the guard looked at his face and asked him if he had taken in a stranger.
That stranger was very likely the culprit who caused the princess to fall into an eternal slumber.
The old carpenter calmly and steadily replied that he had not taken in any strangers.
The guard clearly recognized the old carpenter. Seeing that the old carpenter's expression did not change, he was relieved and left with his men.
"Grandpa carpenter, what should you do?" The shepherd may be simple and honest, but that doesn't mean he's stupid.
The two of them planned to steal the princess.
If the matter is exposed, the old carpenter will most likely be implicated.
Previously, he also possessed a 'blessing,' which allowed the old carpenter to be free from fear of other things.
However, transferring blessings is not an easy task.
This requires the recipient to use the blessing for a long time and to fully comprehend it before they can acquire the corresponding abilities.
And most of the time, this transfer only involves creating some related props—like the bag of rice that Grandpa Farmer gave him.
The ability to attract birds with rice and communicate with them can be seen as a blessing from the farming grandfather, a blessing that extends into that bag of rice.
As the bag of rice was consumed, the blessings within it were also exhausted.
Only by truly mastering all of the blessing can one detach the blessing from oneself and then transfer it to others.
"Don't worry about Grandpa. When Grandpa was young, he fooled the giants with the lie that he 'killed seven at once'."
He was even one step away from marrying the princess and becoming the new king.
"This blessing actually limits Grandpa's ability to lie," the old carpenter said with a smile, not worried about himself.
"Grandpa, I'm so worried about you," the shepherd said anxiously, but he still looked like a human, without a trace of being puppet-like.
Upon seeing this, the old carpenter knew that he had not given his blessing to the wrong person.
He gently stroked the shepherd's head, telling them not to worry about him and to hurry up and pursue true love.
Watching the two young people leave, the old carpenter didn't know whether he had done the right thing or the wrong thing.
The moment he met the princess from the neighboring country, he truly fell in love with her.
Therefore, even if he had no blessings, he would challenge the giants for the sake of love.
Through boasting and wit, he accomplished the impossible and thought he would find happiness.
However, the princess showed disdain after discovering his identity as a tailor.
At that moment, he realized that his love had no chance at all.
In this world, any 'legitimate wish' has a very high chance of being fulfilled.
When you have a firm belief in your heart and are willing to work hard for it, it's as if the whole world is making way for you.
However, that helpful force disappears and may even become an obstacle when your thoughts and concerns are related to people.
Because you have the ability to think, while others also have the ability not to think.
It is easier to resist than to acquire.
The moment ideas collide, everything goes wrong.
When the old carpenter learned that the king and princess of that country wanted to assassinate him, he could have turned the tables and killed the king, then seized the princess and became the new king.
He was also certain that once he became the new king, the princess would not hold it against him for killing her father, because she would become the new queen.
But at that moment, he took a step back.
Forcing someone who doesn't love you to be with you is, in your opinion, a desecration of your own love.
Furthermore, he came to terms with reality; he loved the 'princess' of his imagination, not the princess whose mind was shaped by class consciousness and whose heart was filled with thoughts of status and position.
He would only feel disgusted after seizing the king in that way.
Power and such things will only corrupt his pure and simple heart.
So he retreated, and even though he was constantly being hunted down afterward, he had no regrets whatsoever.
Therefore, even now, he can still say that he has never wronged his love.
Deep down, however, there is still some 'unwillingness'.
If only that 'princess' had really been as perfect as he imagined.
