Devil's Bible

A huge beast appeared in the city.

The prince statue, which subsequently belonged to the mayor, was lost as a result.

The mayor roared and ordered all the royal guards to capture the beast.

The beast, carrying the statue, quickly arrived at another mountain wilderness.

Here, the fine snow covers the branches and leaves, leaving only a line of tiny yet deep footprints.

The beast set down the statue, looked at the prince's statue, and took the swallow from the thick feathers in its bosom.

The weather was so cold that the swallows were just one step away from freezing to death.

"Let's hide him here for now." The beast glanced around; there was no one around.

"I still have things I need to do."

"When I return, if I'm still alive, I might be able to take him to a more stable place, and perhaps even break the curse on him." The soldier had to find a gem.

However, it was at this moment that the prince's statue changed.

His body split open, and a leaden heart fell out.

The image of the prince appears above, looking at the beast with a smile.

In the past, he would have been misled by appearance and thus assumed that the soldier, with his beastly appearance, was a bad person.

But now, after witnessing the helplessness of the greedy monster, he knows that soldiers are truly good people with a conscience.

“Hero, take this lead heart,” said the Happy Prince.

"This is my heart of joy."

“Anyone who touches this lead heart will feel happiness,” said the Happy Prince.

"All my belongings have been used to help those who needed help, and I should rest in peace now."

As he spoke, the Happy Prince turned his gaze to the swallow.

He asked the soldiers to place some pine branches on his head to form a bird's nest.

"I hope that when spring comes, you will come and rest on me again."

After saying this, the Happy Prince vanished.

Upon witnessing this, the soldiers realized that the Happy Prince was a true hero.

He didn't care about his wealth or power, and he didn't even care about his own life or death.

He was willing to sacrifice himself for the happiness of many people.

As the soldier reached out and picked up the lead core, he felt an unprecedented warmth and joy welling up inside him.

This pure joy softened even the most primal faces of the soldiers.

Holding the lead heart, the happy soldier sighed and took the swallow to find the little match girl.

The blind girl used the Happy Prince's jeweled eyes to heal her.

If he takes it away, it might cause that girl to lose her sight once again.

So the soldier decided to go find the little match girl, who was just short of money.

He also had a considerable amount of gold, silver, and copper coins on him.

That would be perfectly acceptable to exchange for that gem.

But by the time the soldiers arrived, it was too late.

The Little Match Girl, whose father sold his daughter.

He reported his daughter for stealing the gemstone eye.

So the little girl was arrested.

He will soon be executed for the crime of stealing valuable assets.

The father who betrayed his daughter was able to receive a reward.

As for that gem, it has already been taken by the mayor.

And it is said that it was quickly bought by a generous noblewoman.

Looking at the little girl, thinly dressed, locked in a cage, curled up, seemingly lifeless and awaiting execution, the soldier was filled with rage.

There are so many kind and simple people in this world.

They live earnestly and treat everyone with kindness. Yet, most of these people do not receive good returns.

Morality and law can only sustain their lives.

The reason for this is that most of the profits are taken by other people who do not work for them.

A surge of anger filled the soldier's heart, and he no longer concealed himself, plotting to steal the gem back.

Instead, it appeared directly and headed straight for the iron cage.

The claws tore open the iron cage, and then the little girl was held in its arms.

Then the guards gathered around.

The spear thrust out, piercing the soldiers' bodies with bloody holes.

Faced with this situation, the soldiers did not kill indiscriminately.

He was still bound by moral constraints; killing indiscriminately was also a sin.

If one acts recklessly, one will inevitably incur new sins, thus making it impossible to fulfill the agreement.

Therefore, the soldier had no choice but to escape with the little girl.

The soldier quickly led the little girl out of the encirclement.

They disappeared into the city.

The little girl seemed terrified; she clung tightly to the soldier's body, her little hands gripping his fur.

The soldier ignored the bloody holes piercing his body.

He carefully held the little girl in his arms.

But he found that no matter how thick his hair was, or how tightly he held her, her body temperature did not warm up at all.

The soldier quickly lowered his head and approached her nose and chest.

But they found that there was no movement at all.

She froze to death before the soldiers arrived.

Upon seeing this, the soldier, holding her small body, could no longer contain himself and roared at the snowy weather.

The frantic roar caused the surrounding snow to swirl around it.

But those snowflakes continued to fall, covering the earth.

If it weren't for the body in his arms, he would have almost immediately turned around and rushed back to the city, tearing the mayor and his ilk to pieces.

The swallow remained nestled among the wild beast's fur, watching the scene unfold without making any further movement.

Just last night, it handed the girl the prince's blue gem.

The little girl holding the gemstone smiled happily; she no longer had to sell matches and could go home.

However, she never expected that even after obtaining the gem, she would not survive.

The beast suddenly felt that his experience as a 'soldier' ​​was a disgrace.

He crumpled his soldier's badge and tossed it aside.

Then he knelt down and dug a hole.

He carefully placed the little girl in the pit and buried her inside.

Then the beast stood up and stood in the wind and snow, contemplating the future.

The cold wind gently blew against his fur, and snowflakes gradually covered his body.

The beast shook itself and calmed down.

Going to kill someone now will only result in accomplishing nothing.

He must systematically overturn this system of identity morality in order to ensure that morality truly cares for those who need it.

His primary goal was to atone for his mistakes and save the princess.

But now, the beast's idea of ​​finding Nia and thus overturning its own morality has become stronger than ever before.

He wanted to change this era and absolutely prevent such tragedies from ever happening again!
With this thought in mind, the beast headed towards the capital.

As for the ring, the leaden heart in the beast's palm, representing happiness, was like a burning heart. (End of Chapter)
