Simulate the universe, starting with speedrunning Greek.

then--

Night's consciousness continued to sink, as if he had just had a nightmare, and in that dream, he dreamed again.

At this moment, in the deepest level of consciousness, the world before him was a dark place without sunlight, and beneath his feet was an endless blizzard.

There was no light at the end of the road—only a dark, gloomy horizon that seemed to devour humanity, or an abyss with gaping maws waiting for him to walk into its trap and be slowly swallowed up.

The Sirens' power is limited, so naturally they cannot influence or weave this layer of the spiritual world.

then--

This is why the world here presents such a desolate, dilapidated, and terrifying scene.

But thankfully, at least it's not distorted here.

After all, when people are dreaming, all sorts of bizarre and fantastical scenes that defy the laws of physics can appear together.

That incomprehensible folly, that dark and bitter chaos—if you see too much of it, it will make you lose your sense of self-worth. You might not die from its allure, but from the brain death of your consciousness.

'This is where? '

With this thought in mind, the night looked up; it was a starless night.

This place is as desolate as a world devoid of any life.

A thought quietly flashed through Ye's mind.

'When the world is about to end, and all things in the world are about to come to a close, your life will also be frozen in time in the near future.'

Would you choose to pray to the gods for solace, or indulge in life's pleasures and resign yourself to fate, or abandon all dignity and morality to pursue the only hope for survival?

Being in such a world, surrounded by a tremendous sense of loneliness, since it is the subconscious, it seems that no matter what choice is made, it can be tolerated and understood.

However, guided by what seemed like a voice within her, Ye did not show the slightest sign of madness.

To abandon all dignity and morality in exchange for hope?

A boring choice.

If a person loses dignity and morality, he is no different from a beast, and living on such a dark hope will inevitably lead to the loss of his true self.

Although he wasn't some righteous hero, he at least wanted to be a human being.

As for praying to the gods and enjoying life, that goes without saying.

Anyone who knows what kind of people the gods are and still has expectations of them must be out of their mind.

At least in this world, there aren't many reliable gods.

Instead of trusting others, trust yourself more; enjoying life might not be so bad!

However, he didn't want to choose any of these obvious options.

Why is it necessary to answer such a question?

Why must we make choices based on predetermined answers?

If fate changes from being unchanging to being a selectable unchanging thing, then humanity loses the infinite possibilities it is born with.

So this shitty fate, along with the world, will surely lead to destruction.

Roar! Just then, Ye heard a terrifying, violent roar like that of a raging flood or a ferocious beast coming from behind him.

Chapter Twenty-Six: Even the most alluring prostitutes on the street corners are more captivating; how can I kill you without getting close!

That night, I turned around and saw the familiar crimson dragon head gradually emerging from the shadows!

A pair of vertical pupils stared at the night with a savage yet demonic quality.

Looking down from above—for a few seconds.

The two stared at each other coldly and intently.

until—

The savagery in the red dragon's eyes suddenly vanished, as if its consciousness had abruptly transformed into a completely different entity: "How much longer are you going to stay here—"

That's absolutely outrageous!

Despite being a dragon, he was bewitched by a small song.

"It's about time they woke up!"

Night was about to say something—

In the outermost real world...

Night had now reached the reef where the Sirens were.

The sirens approached to greet her, and the fastest one had already pressed itself against Night's body.

Artemis in the sky saw this and knew it was time for her to take action, but she was still inevitably somewhat disappointed.

Even knowing that the Sirens' song was now beyond the reach of mortal heroes, Artemis, who inexplicably felt that the night could create such a miracle, waited until the very end.

However, just as the moon goddess was about to shoot an arrow as bright as moonlight, she suddenly noticed something, her eyes widened, and she stopped what she was doing.

Wait, no—

Below...

When the siren placed her hand on Night's chest, intending to have a heart-to-heart talk with her.

A voice suddenly rang in his ear: "Women who are too proactive are not liked by men."

Suddenly——

The siren stiffened and looked up in terror. Only then did it realize that the night's gaze was clear and contemptuous, looking down at it from above.

His cold gaze seemed to threaten to kill her at any moment.

This clearly shows that he has never lost consciousness.

When did you regain consciousness?

Night: "You want to ask me when I woke up, right?"

Sirens: "...!"

Night: "Of course, I was never seduced from the very beginning..."

Sirens: "Impossible!!!"

Upon hearing this, the Sirens' faces, which had been filled with fear, immediately became twisted with rage.

She didn't believe that Ye had remained conscious from the beginning; otherwise, how could she have been drawn in by the singing?

however--

What Ye said next instantly plunged him into an ice cellar.

Night: "Although I managed to stay awake, I used almost all my strength to resist your singing, thankfully..."

The singing stopped for a period of time.

Although you quickly resumed singing, once you were prepared, your mere frivolous music was nothing but "

Night suddenly revealed a contemptuous gaze that made the Sirens feel deeply humiliated and disdainful.

"Even the prostitutes on the street corner sing better than you!"

What? ! !

Boom! The sirens' minds exploded instantly, their faces switching wildly between intense shame and madness, turning red and pale.

A courtesan?

In Greece—that's a general term for women who work in that profession.

These women were all followers of Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty.

Although it has some connection to gods, its essence remains unchanged. Incidentally, Enkidu, born in the neighboring Mesopotamian plains, also reproduced as a divine prostitute, but she was a follower of the Venus goddess Ishtar.

Although Ishtar and Aphrodite are quite similar in their respective mythological figures.

Returning to this point, the Sirens are compared to human women of that profession.

The Sirens, who once dared to offend even the Muses in their quest to see whose singing was more beautiful, now find their own voices described as decadent and inferior, even to the sounds of those divine abilities called "that kind of thing."

Exploded~!!

The Sirens' expressions twisted and became ferocious with immense rage.

When Artemis, the moon goddess, saw that Ye had not been bewitched, a slight smile involuntarily appeared on her lips. However, upon hearing Ye's next words, her face suddenly turned red.

A pair of beautiful, star-like eyes stared at the night below, a hint of anger in them.

To allow the pure moon goddess to hear such filthy words—how despicable! Couldn't they have used a more palatable description?

However, Artemis did not feel much ill will at this moment.

But what about the night on the other side?

This all started with being initially seduced.

Apollo's musical blessing resistance, combined with the powerful resistance inherent in his dragon race.

The dragon's greatest strength lies in its body, which is almost immune to most abnormal resistances in the world!

Some incredibly powerful dragons can even escape instant death.

So everything was fine from the beginning of the night...

It can even quickly divide consciousness into subconsciousness and conscious awareness.

One group pretends to be bewitched and enters into a deeper illusion, while the other group remains calm and waits for the opportunity to strike back.

Because of Ye's complete lack of resistance, that sinking consciousness gradually sank into the deepest part of his subconscious, triggering the contract with the red dragon Helena.

That dark world—it shouldn't be his own inner world, but rather more like Helena's inner world.

After being mocked by the mother dragon, he was kicked out.

That idiot—!

I have no idea where they went.

However, through that seemingly deepened, subtle connection, Ye was shaken—he could vaguely sense that Helena's location was Troy.
