Devil's Bible

This competition has attracted a lot of attention in the past few days.

The reason for this lies in what the nobleman said earlier—that the people in the lower city are in such a miserable state entirely because they themselves do not work hard and have no morals.

With just this one sentence, the problems of the nobles were completely overshadowed.

The nobleman's behavior these past few days has been observed by everyone.

The other party was originally considered a promising young man among the nobility.

However, after entering the lower city as an ordinary person, he behaved so poorly.

If they hadn't admitted defeat in time, they might have been sold off like piglets to be abused by others.

That's right, the person that the nobleman planned to attack was a member of a certain noble family's shady business.

Some nobles had a penchant for male beauty, so he specially selected 'pets' for these people.

That's right. Those who are chosen will undergo certain modifications and then completely lose their right to be human.

So even though they still look like men, those powerful guys can play with these pets without feeling any guilt.

Just like humans don't feel guilty for hitting a plush toy a couple of times.

From this perspective, the purpose of this gamble was to shatter the sense of superiority that the nobility derived from their bloodline.

It was as if the shepherd was pointing his finger at them and saying, "You bastards, you're nothing special!"

This outburst not only humiliated and angered them, but also gradually trampled on the dignity that belonged to the nobility.

The nobleman who had been rescued had been forgotten by everyone.

What awaits him next are some less-than-honorable things.

Because he chose something undignified, and most importantly, he hasn't succeeded because of that undignified choice.

If he succeeds, then his methods will only be a harmless little joke, something to tease him about.

But he failed.

The meaning of everything has naturally changed.

But this is a minor matter now.

The real problem lies on the other side.

"I believe that the nobility has failed in their duty to govern the world."

“At least many things could have been avoided, but the nobles failed to do so and instead became part of the problem.”

"This goes against the original intention of the god Nia in giving you divine power!" The shepherd's words caused many people's expressions to change.

"We need to deal with invasions from outside the world, but our people are struggling to even survive."

“Therefore, the nobility must change.” The shepherd bluntly stated his purpose.

“That’s not how it’s said,” a nobleman immediately retorted. “We nobles are just focusing our efforts on our tasks and haven’t taken them into consideration.”

"The kingdom's army has grown increasingly powerful over the years, and the strength of the noble members has also been steadily increasing..."

"To be promoted to this level?" The beast smiled and pointed at the nobleman from before.

The faces of all the nobles immediately darkened.

"He's just an isolated case!" one nobleman said, directly denying the fact that the man had once been an outstanding young nobleman.

"But no matter what, you have not achieved your intended purpose."

“Govern this world well, make most people moral, and make the world stable.” The shepherd looked at the king and the nobles and asked seriously, “Ask yourselves whether you have done it.”

“According to the oracle of the god Nia, an enemy from beyond the world is approaching. If this continues, the enemy will not be as merciful as the god Nia,” the shepherd said earnestly.

The king remained calm and unmoved by these words. The other nobles, however, grew increasingly grim.

It can be said that everything the shepherds did after their appearance was a denial of them.

However, they lack the words and facts to respond to these denials.

In addition, there are the enemies from beyond the world, as the shepherds have described.

These messages made them worried.

“We have certainly trained our troops well for this purpose,” the king interjected, “but we have neglected the common people somewhat.”

"There's nothing we can do about it. Over the years, those witch alliance members have been causing trouble, and most of our energy has been focused on them."

The king had essentially found an excuse for the problem.

And with this excuse, the shepherd could no longer continue to pressure them.

After all, although he had Nia as his backer, that backer was somewhat unreliable.

His sudden appearance caught them off guard and gave him the upper hand, highlighting the problem of 'mismanagement'.

But if I press them further and try to uncover all the problems, then these nobles will definitely not be as 'amiable' as they are now.

Nobles all eat meat.

These nobles may be relatively weak now, but many of those old fogies who united to force the First Queen to abdicate, divided the royal power, and established the duchy are still alive.

These old folks are far superior to these weak nobles who grew up pampered in luxury.

"The Witch Alliance is a minor issue."

"The enemy from another world is the key point."

"Let's improve the welfare and management systems first."

"At least I don't want to see nobles wasting a lot of resources while the lower classes don't even have a bite to eat," the shepherd said, thus revealing his bottom line.

Upon seeing this, a smile appeared on the king's face.

As it stands, the shepherds, though representing the god Nia and holding different positions, are not beings incapable of communication.

It's just some basic food; that's fine.

Although there will be some damage, it's not a big problem.

"Haha, no problem, we will immediately improve the system and establish a support mechanism for the lower-level cultivators so that they can live a better life and also encourage more heroes to emerge." The king then readily agreed.

"However, it's best if the divine messenger doesn't underestimate the witch alliance," the king said solemnly, appearing quite serious.

As the king explained, the shepherd learned some of the inside story.

The king previously claimed that the witch alliance was causing trouble, which led the nobles to neglect people's livelihood issues, though this was just an excuse.

However, it's not entirely nonsense.

The Witches' Alliance was, of course, an organization established by the First Queen and the First Witch.

Over the years, this First Witch has been trying to create more witches who possess witchcraft and bring them under her control.

Then they used various means to steal the one-part royal power 'in the name of God'.

The First Witch, after all, had been a queen before and had some contact with the concept of 'in the name of God'.

So over the years, some results have been achieved.

As a result, the monarchy became somewhat unstable.

Therefore, in order to stabilize royal power, contact with the lower classes was reduced, using isolation to enhance the royal family's prestige and thus strengthen royal authority. (End of Chapter)
