Simulate the universe, starting with speedrunning Greek.

At a previous banquet, he had casually asked the wicked man what he thought of the hero Palamedes.

Odysseus, who concealed his resentment, outwardly praised Palamedes.

Even if Odysseus himself were here now, he wouldn't find anything wrong with hearing this.

But in the future, this could become a fatal blow that will ultimately harm Odysseus.

The feeling that Night is saying at this moment makes people think that Odysseus thinks this way, and Night is just influenced by him to recommend Palamedes.

It seemed like it was done on purpose!

Ajax the Great hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped himself.

Since it was the commentary of the wise Odysseus, Palamedes should indeed be without fault.

But Palamedes' power was not great.

Compared to Ye, who always claimed to be a musician but almost single-handedly destroyed a Greek hero.

He was a proper musician, and although he was also a hero, like Odysseus, he was more skilled in rhetoric and invention than in martial arts.

Wouldn't Palamedes have faced the same danger?

But I should say this—

The fact that no hero stood up to believe Palamedes when he was falsely accused in the myth shows how unpopular this man was.

Although he is righteous and kind, he is too straightforward when it comes to people.

If Patroclus were to die, Ajax the Great would worry that Achilles would fight to the death for him.

But Palamedes...

Who cares about him?

As long as that terrible future can be changed, that's fine.

It doesn't matter who can wear that armor.

Ajax the Great remained silent, Achilles, who had already been informed of the plan by the spies, naturally supported Night unconditionally, and as for Patroclus, he himself was even less concerned.

If you can't figure it out, then stop thinking about it!

Compared to that, he didn't care about anyone else; he just wanted to get Agamemnon's reward as soon as possible.

Chapter Sixty-Four: Eliminate Your Weapons! The Blessings of Music Have Limitless Uses

I had planned this all night, and even though I had concealed my identity with many layers, my true identity would eventually be exposed.

...Kill as many Greek heroes as possible before they are exposed.

Night's primary targets were naturally those who held pivotal positions within the allied forces, or whose deaths would cause significant disruption to the internal stability of the Greek side.

Palamedes was a ticking time bomb.

He wanted to prematurely expose Odysseus's scandal, thus steer the Odyssey legend down a different path.

Despite being favored by the gods, Odysseus ultimately committed an unforgivable sin.

If--

Odysseus currently only has the idea; there's a possibility he might take action against Palamedes in the future.

So now Ye should take the initiative to hand him the knife.

During this process, he didn't even need to meet or talk with Odysseus.

Thinking about it carefully—although he could collude with Odysseus, and he was confident he could do it flawlessly, even more successfully than in the myth, he would also easily end up on the same warship as Odysseus.

Once Odysseus is exposed, he will also be exposed.

But it's alright—

He quickly came up with a new and daring idea.

That was a flawless plan that no one could have imagined and no one would have doubted.

As long as the heroes and gods at this moment do not doubt their own identities, they will never suspect that it is them.

after all--

Night looked toward Troy, recalling his instructions to Hector to spare the man in Achilles' armor, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

It seems there's another way to kill people.

……

Soon, Patroclus, wearing Achilles' armor, followed Night and Ajax the Great toward Agamemnon's camp.

Countless soldiers and heroes who saw Patroclus's armor mistook it for Achilles emerging from the sky.

His move to head straight for Agamemnon's location immediately put all the heroes on edge, causing them to tense up.

This doesn't look like they're going to deliver armor!

Is Achilles about to take action against Agamemnon again?

The heroes headed toward Agamemnon's camp.

Meanwhile, Patcross had already informed Agamemnon of all the demands and conditions they had agreed upon.

During this process, many heroes also arrived here one after another.

When they discovered that the person in armor was Patroclus and not Achilles himself, the heroes' eyes revealed barely concealed hostility and displeasure.

Patcross? How is he wearing armor?! What makes him worthy of it?!

Has Agamemnon already decided to let him inherit the armor?

The heroes were utterly indignant that such a man, neither the strong Diomedes nor the wise Odysseus, had been chosen as the heir to the armor.

Fortunately, they heard what Patcross said next.

Upon learning of Patcross's purpose, the heroes could no longer sit still.

According to Patroclus and the others, Achilles actually agreed to give his armor to the other warriors—?!

In an instant, this made many heroes see the possibility of equipping themselves with a set of divine gear, and they all became excited.

The heroes began to speak on Patroclus's behalf, urging Agamemnon to expedite the trade so that Patroclus and Achilles would willingly relinquish their equipment.

This is something Achilles himself agreed to!

That way they could fight for the armor with a clear conscience, without worrying about retaliation from the demigod afterward.

And at this time——

Agamemnon, who was in charge, had turned a liverish color and become even more foul-smelling, to the point of being unbearable.

Just two days ago, the hero Griffith swindled a considerable amount of wealth and soldiers from me, and now a nobody like Patcross is trying to extort money from me?!

He roared angrily, "You beastly bastard!"

Who gave you the audacity to bargain with your monarch?

Today I'll show you who the real king is here!

With that, he ordered his messenger to lead the soldiers to capture Patcross.

He might have been wary if it were Achilles in person.

Just because of Pat Cross? Isn't that like him thoughtfully and voluntarily handing over equipment to me?

He was not confident he could snatch the armor from Achilles, but he was confident he could snatch it from Patroclus.

Nestor had just found him and said he had a plan to get Achilles to agree to the armor extension through Patcross—but only if Patcross inherited the identity of 'Achilles' and led the army alone.

Then Pat Cross came knocking on his door, pressuring him like this?

Even Achilles wouldn't dare to act so presumptuously here, let alone Patroclus.

This is outrageous!

When Agamemnon's herald Tartibius led his soldiers to surround Patroclus.

Ajax the Great instinctively raised his shield to protect him.

It is worth mentioning that when the hero Palamedes was betrayed, Ajax the Great was the only man who, although not standing by Palamedes' side, was willing to collect his body after his death, despite the objections of others.

Deep down, he still didn't want to believe that his comrade-in-arms and hero could be a traitor.

Ajax the Great possessed an extremely strong sense of justice and kindness.

He was willing to protect even a despicable person like Pat Cross.

The situation was about to escalate to a boiling point, and a fight was imminent.

The heroes watching had different expressions, but none of them took any action; they simply remained bystanders, seemingly having their own thoughts.

At this moment, Ye, who had hoped that things would get chaotic in Greece, did not take the opportunity to stir up trouble but instead stepped forward and stood in front of both sides.

He hoped things would get chaotic on the Greek side, but not in this way.

Moreover, given his current position, it's impossible for him to remain completely uninvolved.

The night was about to set the plan back on track.

He shouted for both sides to put down their weapons, and in the middle of it, he plucked a string on his instrument, which suddenly emitted a terrifying shockwave.

The shockwave struck the soldiers like a gentle breeze, leaving them unharmed, but their weapons were knocked from their hands.

This scene astonished many heroes, leaving them wide-eyed and deeply moved.

If it were on a battlefield—

The fate of an enemy who has lost their weapon after that attack is predictable.

This is a powerful weapon.

"You...! Hero Griffith, are you going to disobey my king's orders?" The messenger, whose weapon had also been knocked from his hand, spoke angrily.

The messenger was about to pick up his weapon and continue fighting when he spoke.

Agamemnon, contrary to his previous anger, suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and shouted: "Tartibius, stop!"

Chapter Sixty-Five: The heroes were bewildered. Why wasn't it me, the one who came up with the idea (and contributed the most money)?

—Tartibios?
