Simulate the universe, starting with speedrunning Greek.

This giant baby is a complete burden.

Haven't I caused you enough trouble already?

Night: "You're in too much of a hurry, Achilles."

Do you really think that by suddenly rebelling, we can successfully defeat Greece and escape?

Don't forget what's behind Agamemnon...

Achilles was suddenly awakened—he immediately thought of the existence of the goddess Athena, and perhaps even the figures of other gods.

Achilles frowned: "…………"

So, what do you suggest we do?

Night: "Come closer, I'll tell you."

Even with the soundproof barrier activated, Ye remained extremely cautious before speaking.

Who says that only by rebelling against the enemy can one cause trouble and sabotage for Agamemnon?

That night, a series of incredibly insidious—no, despicable, no, wise—plans were revealed to Achilles.

It was all a setup—it was so sincere, so sincere that Achilles was trembling all over, feeling as if he were in an ice cellar, freezing cold.

Those despicable Trojans!

Ouch, that's terrifying.

Even Odysseus wouldn't do something so despicable.

Achilles suddenly felt less hatred for Agamemnon and even felt some pity for the man.

And when Achilles and the night return.

They immediately set their sights on Patroclus.

Achilles told Patroclus to remove his armor, for it would only bring him misfortune.

Unexpectedly, Achilles' attitude hardened again at the end of the conversation, which infuriated Patcrosto.

But when he angrily said, "My friend, do you not even care about honor and face anymore?"

Achilles's indifferent attitude finally frightened Patroclus.

He changed tactics, suddenly starting to lament his weakness and play the victim...

Without this armor to protect me, how miserable I would be. Perhaps I would be the next one to fall after those fallen warriors.

The story of how Patroclus and Achilles met begins in their childhood. Patroclus was a little boy who accidentally killed another boy and fled. He eventually stumbled upon Achilles's home and was protected by him.

That's how the two met—and gradually became friends.

But—was it really an accidental killing?

Why is it said that Achilles was somewhat too kind?

As a child, he believed everything Pat Cross said, and regardless of the circumstances, Pat Cross did kill someone.

But this murderer eventually became a friend of a prince, transformed into a hero, and was even allowed to wear Achilles' armor and fight on the battlefield in his name.

Night's assessment was: Shameless!

At least in this world, Pat Cross looked utterly pathetic in his presence.

And at that moment, Ye spoke—

He stated that if Patroclus were to relinquish the armor, he and Achilles could use this as leverage to request additional rewards from King Agamemnon as a token of gratitude for the armor's surrender.

By doing this, you won't lose out, and you won't have to endure the risk of being killed like Achilles.

Night: "If you want to face Hector's glory, you can try to see if you can live to see the next sunrise."

Even Achilles, with his immortal body and divine spear, was defeated by his opponent (referring to the Battle of Thebes, where Night directly claimed credit for his own contribution), or perhaps—

Do you think you can defeat Hector in his prime?

As Ye spoke, his gaze suddenly became incredibly sharp, like that of an eagle, which made Patcross feel fear and shrink back in terror.

Facing Hecate head-on?!

That monster?

Recalling Hector's terror on the battlefield, and the persistent rumors in the camp that the heroes who defeated Achilles were not two people, but entirely Hector's achievement.

After all, the night-blooming cereus was short-lived, and even Paris and others stopped paying attention to it before it 'died'. Compared to such an unknown person, people believed that it was Hector, the strongest hero of Troy, who defeated Achilles all by himself.

To imagine Patcross facing such a monster, he conjured up the terrifying scene of Hector's gleaming helmet and spear piercing him to pieces, and his face contorted in horror: Eek!!

Chapter Sixty-Three: Oh, Truth, rejoice! You have finally died before me!

Patcross is a greedy man.

He was like Achilles' shadow, always following the demigod.

But as a shadow, there will always be a day when you want to turn over and become the real thing.

But the future that Ye painted for him, coupled with the allure of music, drew his dazed mind, as if he could see the despairing, cold gaze in Hector's eyes when he was pierced through the chest.

A dull ache throbbed in his chest, and even with the gleaming armor protecting him, Patcross felt no sense of security.

Faced with the threat of death, and with the prospect of not being entirely unprofitable in returning the armor, Patcross was tempted.

He promised Night that he would return the armor, but only after he received the reward promised by King Agamemnon.

To demonstrate that his value was absolutely worth the price—Patcross even generously offered to recommend Agamemnon that Night wear Achilles' armor.

They really treat this thing as their own property.

A hint of sarcasm flashed through Ye's mind.

I have to say, this man is really stupid.

He was easily provoked by Nestor and rushed to fight for this divine artifact that was far beyond his control.

They're still using the issue of returning the money as leverage.

For Agamemnon, it didn't matter to the king who wore Achilles' armor, no matter who it was.

All he wanted to see was Achilles's impotent rage when he was humiliated.

Demanding that Agamemnon replace the people because of Ye and the others, and even paying for it, was already an act that greatly angered the tyrant.

For Agamemnon, spending money on someone he didn't care about at all was a completely unnecessary disaster.

This idiot is so arrogant that he wants to choose the next owner of the armor.

Even if you buy something with money, you can't choose how to use it as you please...

This feeling of being a "cuckold" is like when a friend asks you to buy them a birthday gift and specifically requests the most expensive one, which is unpleasant.

People who lack a sense of boundaries are the most annoying kind of people.

But Ye naturally didn't care whether this giant baby would offend Agamemnon; it would be best if he angered Agamemnon and died at his hands.

At that point, an enraged Achilles would be even less likely to return to the Greek camp.

At that time, with Achilles on his left and Hector on his right, there would be no one in the allied forces to fight against.

Find an opportunity to drag the God of War into the fray before the gods can react, and annihilate the Greek army in one fell swoop—it's just around the corner. Perfect!

At this moment, Ye Chu said, "It is possible—but the person you recommend is neither me nor Ajax the Great."

Patcross was slightly taken aback—

Not the two of you?

Judging others by their own selfishness, they think that these guys are preventing them from getting the armor because they want to wear it themselves.

But neither of them wants it?

Patcross felt a subtle unease—it was as if something you treasured was discarded like trash by others, making his previous actions and thoughts seem utterly despicable, like those of a clown.

Patcross: "So, who should we nominate?"

Night: "Palamedes..."

That night, such an unexpected name slipped out of his mouth.

Even Ajax the Great, who was already mentally prepared that he wouldn't be able to wear that armor, was stunned.

How could it be him? !

The hero Griffith believed that person was the perfect candidate.

but--

Hero Palamedes! This is a hero with a very special status, known to almost all heroes.

Although he was not as famous as Odysseus or Diomedes, he invited almost all the heroes.

In mythology, he was known as the most knowledgeable man in the Greek coalition.

He was the son of King Nauplius and Clymene.

He was diligent, intelligent, upright, and determined, and also handsome and skilled in singing and playing musical instruments.

He invented the lighthouse, scales, measuring instruments, and dice; he added four letters to the Phoenician alphabet, which had been introduced to Greece; and he was the inventor of numbers, coins, and the calendar. He did many things for the Greeks, yet he was not treated fairly.

All of this stems from his past actions, which led him to recruit too many heroes who originally did not want to participate in this war.

For example, he exposed Odysseus's pretense of madness, which led to Odysseus's resentment and ultimately his death.

After being framed, he was abandoned by all the heroes.

He cried out: "Truth, rejoice! For you have finally died before me!"

He was then killed by Odysseus with stones.

This led to Odysseus being cursed by the gods after the incident, and the goddess of justice even wanted to punish him.

Even with Zeus's secret protection, who had always been fond of Odysseus, he still drifted in the Aegean Sea for ten years before being able to return home.

Such a unique individual, though lacking in strength, can you call him ordinary? Not at all!

Night: "I learned from Odysseus that Palamedes is the most knowledgeable among us, and it would be perfectly safe for him to impersonate Achilles."

Night had just dug a small pit for Odysseus.
