Devil's Bible

"Useless." This thought lingered in his mind.

The shepherd never imagined that Mocania would be so useless.

The shepherd thought that it was one thing for the witchcraft of "in the name of God" to exploit loopholes in morality and law, but it was understandable that Nia was morally blackmailed for the first time.

However, being morally blackmailed a second time can only be described as those nobles pushing their luck.

Nia, who was being pushed so far, backed down and softened.

According to Mocania, in the name of God, the nobles are simply regarded as a whole, and when a power struggle occurs, the other nobles will be aware of it.

The nobles then used this as a basis to form an alliance against him.

It's just an alliance!
There is no mandatory binding involved.

The shepherd was almost certain that if Mocania took a hard line and actually killed the nobleman who had morally blackmailed him, the allied nobles would protest, become indignant, and resort to underhanded tactics, and some might even be implicated and harmed as a result.

However, those nobles would never truly become a unified whole, advance or retreat together, and fight Mocania to the bitter end.

Next, Mocania only needs to kill some of the more radical nobles and then set absolute rules for them.

Under this rule, even the worst nobles will have a minimum standard of conduct.

Once someone crosses the line, Mocania can use this to carry out punishment.

The social status and morality of nobles would be restrained to prevent such an endless decline.

It's fair to say that if Mocania had been just a little more assertive, the world wouldn't be in the state it is today.

However, despite possessing greater power and influence, Mocania was manipulated in that situation.

He has a fear of any potential loss.

"To be precise, it seems that Nia is extremely afraid of the losses she herself has caused." The shepherd's mind was buzzing.

I never imagined that the so-called God Nia would be such a person.

Mocania also noticed the shepherd's lapse in composure, which revealed his wretchedness.

In fact, Mocania also knew that she was too weak.

However, this was indeed a weakness in his soul.

Everything stems from what happened back then.

He mustered his courage and stood in front of Xiao Bi, thinking he was protecting his childhood sweetheart.

But what she got in return was a remark from Xiao Bi: "You only did this because you were after my body, didn't you?"

Then, Little Bee's desires surged, and he became an artificial demon.

After that, Mocania actually began to fear making mistakes.

Encouraged by Isabella, she overcame her self-imposed isolation, which had led her to believe she was a vessel for sealing demons.

They also realized that their identities were different.

Therefore, Mocania would carefully consider each action before taking it.

He was genuinely afraid that after he took the initiative to do something, the person he was helping would say something like, "Your help has ulterior motives," or that the help itself would bring other losses.

The negative impact of those losses made Mocania feel that it was her fault.

Therefore, it is better to do nothing in the first place than to do something wrong and cause negative consequences.

This mindset itself wasn't particularly prominent, but as he created a world and began to shoulder the weight of so many lives within it, he realized he couldn't bear it.

The pressure of responsibility pushed this mindset to the forefront.

It was only then that Mocania realized how serious her mental state problem was.

Of course, the most important point is that it's not just about being afraid of causing losses through one's actions.

Mocania also discovered that she lacked a certain kind of courage. However, she herself didn't understand why.

So during this time, he spent his time in the valley in introspection and reflection.

Unfortunately, although decades had passed in the small world, only a little over two days had passed for him.

In two days, he cannot possibly negate his entire life and then resolve his psychological vulnerabilities.

Only through more experiences can his mind be gradually refined.

For example, if Mocania had chosen to be more assertive when faced with a second instance of moral blackmail, and subsequently received positive feedback, then this mindset issue could have been somewhat improved.

If there are more similar incidents, then perhaps his problem can be solved.

But in that instant, Mocania saw countless people, and saw their lives become bargaining chips held in his hands.

He is willing to risk his life for them, whether it's fighting or sacrificing himself.

His will is extremely firm, and he will continue on his path.

Mocania hesitated, tempted by the possibility of using their lives as leverage for a high-stakes gamble.

He lacks the experience to not just lead a team, but to manage a large number of people.

And what about the enemy?

The real enemy has not yet arrived; they are still outside the world.

And now the enemy? It's a part of the life he created.

Mocania was at a loss as to how to deal with them.

And so things have turned out the way they are today.

The shepherd realized he had lost his composure. Regardless of how useless the god Mocania might be, the power he wielded was undeniable.

Furthermore, he would need to leverage the other party's power to help the soldier and ensure his safe rescue of Sleeping Beauty.

"Lord Nia, I hope to gain your approval and support." The shepherd didn't say anything else, but earnestly stated the purpose of his trip.

"On one hand, it's for my friends, and on the other hand, it's to change the current state of the world."

"I am willing to dedicate my life to restraining those nobles and restoring the world to its proper course!" the shepherd vowed.

Mocania also forgot about her earlier slight lapse in composure.

He wasn't the type to hold grudges.

Therefore, he did not hold a grudge against the shepherd for his previous offense.

Mocania couldn't help but start to think about the shepherd's words.

He was confident in his judgment that a world war would break out soon.

At this point, can his world really withstand drastic reforms?

Currently, if reforms are too drastic, a large number of nobles will die as a result.

Will this level of internal strife erode their already limited fighting strength?

Secondly, will this dampen the nobles' enthusiasm for fighting against enemies from another world?

Mocania instinctively began to consider these things.

However, Mocania soon realized that the situation in this world was already very bad.

Reform is imperative.

With the shepherd's support this time, he might succeed. (End of Chapter)
