In human society, princesses usually come from bloodlines related to the ruling clan and are female offspring corresponding to the prince. However, fairies do not reproduce like humans. Their lives are more primitive or progressive. Most fairies can adjust their gender as needed. When their individual consciousness matures, they will make decisions.
But this decision does not mean that the goblins who choose to become female have to undertake the task of nurturing the next generation. This gender difference is more like the result of their influence on the human world, because as far as the creatures of the goblins themselves are concerned, they can reproduce alone or even produce naturally.
The so-called reproduction alone is actually very similar to the legendary Kingdom of Women in humans. That is, when a fairy individual has the desire to give birth to children, and prays to the fairy king or queen and then goes through a certain ritual, he will become pregnant. The so-called ritual is completely random. According to records, it may be eating a fish, sucking its own fingers, catching a fallen leaf, etc. that seem to have nothing to do with conception.
When the ceremony is completed, new fairies will appear from the inside of the mother body. The pregnancy cycle is random, but it is generally determined by the type of fairy in the conceived person and has a relatively accurate time range. The fairies born in this way are likely to belong to the same species or close-source species as the mother body.
In contrast, natural occurrence is completely uncontrollable random events. According to the oral narration of a certain fairy king in history, even as the king who ruled all fairies, he could not know where the fairy was born in the world, and what abilities and personalities these fairies would have. This way of birth is also considered to be the original origin of the fairy tribe.
They were born like fruits that bear after the flowers fade, and appeared there freely and mysteriously. The leprechauns born in this way are often affected by the environment in their species. The leprechauns born in the same environment are probably of the same species, but some subtle differences are sometimes enough to change the whole of a leprechaun.
Interestingly, the natural production of goblins is often limited, that is, when enough goblins appear in a certain area, the natural production phenomenon will stop. Therefore, in some fairy gathering places with very stable populations, each new goblin means the death of an old goblin.
This phenomenon will not only occur in the elves kingdom. In areas closely related to the two worlds, elves will also be born in the human world. Some of these elves are lucky enough to meet the same tribe, be enlightened and taught common sense and knowledge. But others are more thoroughly transformed into the same whole with nature, becoming barbaric and mentally retarded, which is the wild elves that people call.
In short, blood and kinship are not popular among fairies. Even those offspring born through individual reproduction often require forced or semi-forced to survive independently after their mothers get tired of raising their children. At the same time, the gap in life length also makes a sense of alienation between fairies. Compared with the time of raising children, the severe asymmetry between the growth period and the middle age of life will cause ethics to collapse.
Specifically, it takes about fifty years for a cat fairy to be born to adulthood, and fifty years later, what awaits them is centuries of prime years. In comparison, the gap between one or two hundred years of age between the same tribe may not be so significant. Assuming that a cat fairy begins to nurture the next generation as soon as she becomes an adult, then his offspring is only about fifty years away from him. When they spend a hundred or even two hundred years together, this subtle difference will appear insignificant. Unlike the harsh class system of vampires relying on the blood of the true ancestor, the growth of the fairy is completely spontaneous, and older people will soon lose all the ability to restrain their offspring.
Therefore, the title of princess will not have the same meaning as in human society among the goblins. It is more of a kind of respect from the heart, and this respect will not change due to the relationship between positions. The Yew people who want to kill Ata know and admit that she is the princess, and the same is true for the manager of the door she has never known each other. Even the goblins representing another force in the goblin world, the power of the female swordsman, will still salute respectfully when they see her.
Ata looked at them, and no one knew what was reflected in her sky blue eyes except herself. But she did not show any condescending appearance because of the other party's salute, but pointed to the other side of the intersection, "I suddenly don't want to buy meat now. Are you willing to go with me to have some cake? On the way here I smelled the freshly baked cake."
There are many kinds of fairies and all kinds of abilities, but if they have commonalities, there are still some. The most well-known of them is their love for milk, dairy products and sweets.
Legend has it that as long as a plate of fresh milk is placed on the windowsill to worship the fairies, they will protect the farmland from the devils, and even give warnings before the robbers arrive. This is a preference that even Kailas cannot refuse, so Atta's memory is very deep.
The cake was served quickly, and it was indeed just released. Cheese and Alice sat outside the table to block the eyes of others. However, their behavior was not necessary. Even the demons were walking on the street. In comparison, the spider demon who was reborn and the messenger wearing crow feathers and skulls were all slightly different guests.
"My portion doesn't have cream, thank you." Cheese raised his hand to stop the clerk who wanted to butter on his cake, and put a few coins into the other party's hands. "We may be a little noisy, hoping that it won't affect others."
The clerk nodded tactfully, and he would lead other guests to the farther table. This communication skill is also a new word that Cheese learned while running. He would not use obscure ways to explain his needs before.
Speaking of demand, during the conversation between the gray robe and the clerk, the two fairies had ate most of the cake on their plate that was twice as much as Cheese and the others, and they seemed to have no intention of stopping. Ata supported the table with both hands and watched them eat with interest, looking at her eating, looking at her not going to eat her own portion. Cheese had no objection to this. He looked down at the cake on the table and began to wonder if there was any dangerous potion inside.
"It's incredible that these shops can still be opened with you nearby." Alice, as a witch hunter, rarely encounters witches from the real goblins. What she can know and see are more races like dwarfs that are highly integrated with the human world, or are simply wild goblins. Therefore, she has no idea about these temperaments and hobbies. In her opinion, witches who are so obsessed with sweets will definitely become a nightmare for merchants.
"The goblins won't steal things. When they lose your items, they are playing pranks. For the goblins, pranks are very pure and entertaining. They will not destroy this purity for other reasons. Therefore, they will never steal them." Cheese said his understanding of the goblins was a simple defense for the two little guys who couldn't get rid of their mouths.
The words of the gray robe did not stop, and he looked at Ata, "Are you sure this is a good idea? If your target is him, you shouldn't waste time here. Especially you shouldn't treat your enemies."
