Simulate the universe, starting with speedrunning Greek.

No, not possible!

Why should Griffith define the borders of Troy?

He would absolutely not accept such an absurd contract.

After all, what's the point of keeping a contract that Priam sees as a sure loss?

Meanwhile, on the other side—

In order for this contract to have a truly sufficient effect.

Of course, Ye wouldn't be so foolish as to get the two countries to sign a peace treaty based on mere words without any evidence.

He shouted the name of Astraea, the goddess of justice and balance, towards the horizon.

In Greece, if you loudly call out the name of a major god, the god will respond.

So never speak ill of God in secret, or He might hear you.

At this moment, under the sky where all the gods were watching, Ye shouted at such close range that the goddess of justice naturally paid attention immediately.

This goddess, in order to achieve the lofty justice and absolute fairness in her heart, even went so far as to blind herself and wrap herself in cloth to sever her selfish desires.

She is also the only goddess who would still judge Odysseus when all the other gods chose to protect him, the one who had harmed Truth.

Although Artemis already serves as a witness, naturally the more gods who provide witnessing, the better.

In particular, the night requires the use of Astraea's artifact.

The scales in her hands are the embodiment and symbol of ancient Greek law.

That night, they requested the goddess to appear and witness the gamble with her divine artifact.

The heroes' eyes widened in astonishment. Could this really be done?

That's incredibly audacious—daring to invite a deity to descend to the mortal realm as a judge.

After all, God himself is capricious. Apart from some stubborn individuals and heroes who have nothing better to do, who would deliberately provoke these 'madmen'?

Night was well aware of the Goddess of Justice's ways, which is why she called upon her name without hesitation.

Sure enough—the other party showed up.

It's good that they've shown themselves, as long as the other party can use the artifact to witness it.

Even if the twelve Olympian gods dared to let Astraea use the scales to judge, violating the oath would result in a strong backlash from the laws, so it would be even more difficult for mortals to break their vows.

Traitors will suffer misfortune! I doubt anyone would want to experience just how unfortunate that might be.

That's a level where you could fall into a pit while walking, and choke to death while drinking water.

Even someone with a lucky streak like E would have to sigh at how tragic it was.

"Alright." In the sky, appearing in a form reminiscent of the Sword Saintess from Goblin Slayer, was the noble goddess Astraea with silver-toned platinum hair. Hmm... this familiar name was actually her divine name during her Roman era.

She should now be a goddess named Themis.

At this moment, it appeared holding a sacred and ancient golden scale and granted the night's request.

This goddess's obsession with justice was such that, while she couldn't control Zeus, she was also unafraid of the will of the king of the gods, even knowing that Zeus wanted the war to continue.

But the kind and righteous goddess revealed herself to witness the night's plea for peace between the two countries and decided to lend a hand.

then--

"Themis? How dare you?!" Zeus, the king of the gods, was furious. He spoke to the goddess of justice, and unleashed a great thunderbolt, instantly casting a dark shadow over the sky.

'—Go back here!' Themis!

If it weren't for her pride—having just had one of her avatars killed and fearing the gods would suspect something was amiss and thus unwilling to reveal herself—Zeus would have wanted to tear this goddess's heart apart.

His eyes were filled with anger and a coldness that came from feeling betrayed.

But the goddess of justice pretended not to hear what this old bastard was saying at all.

To be honest, if she weren't outmatched, given Zeus's philandering and ungrateful behavior—falling for every woman he meets and then abandoning her—she would have already put this god-king to his fate and chopped off his penis.

The radiant light of Astraea's scales balanced the contractual concept of the bargaining chips between Troy and Greece.

With a flash of golden light, the scales swayed for a moment before settling down completely with a thud.

The contract is complete!

There was no turning back for either party from that point on.

At this moment, Night called upon all the gods to witness this historic moment and asked Astraea to summon Hermes as well. Among the gods, Hermes' speed and eyesight—though not the fastest, were definitely top-notch.

Ye wanted to show him just how far his attack would ultimately land.

Before the Goddess of Justice could speak, the gods in the heavens, who had been watching this 'game' for a long time with great interest, were disappointed—why wasn't it themselves who needed help at night?

Hermes, meanwhile, had already flown out on his own initiative, looking excited.

Invite me to join in this fun activity!

As for whether or not they offend Zeus, with the goddess of justice taking the brunt of the fire, what are they afraid of?

If you don't play now, you won't have another chance later!

~Happy!

Chapter 221 Because of one person, 'Ge,' I fell in love with others who had done the same thing.

Hermes: "Leave it to me, I know what to do—just attack."

Hermes's very cooperative behavior.

Zeus: !!! You unfilial son!!

Although Zeus also did not believe that Griffith could accomplish such an extraordinary feat.

But what if the other party unleashes that same destructive, mysterious power again?

Involuntarily, I pictured the giant warrior throwing his spear.

What terrifying sights would result if that size and terrifying power were used to unleash the strongest throwing technique...?

However, once everything was ready and the audience was prepared, night returned to Artemis and Helen.

He looked at his chief goddess and smiled, “Artemis, only you… I want to show you my last strength, to demonstrate my bravery to my goddess; this is what I have done for you all this time, and I have no way to repay you. This is one of the few things I can do now.”

His tone carried a hint of regret and silence that he himself was unaware of.

The power of the Great Thunder was far more terrifying than he had imagined; this was something he had only gradually come to realize.

It was actually intensifying the damage to his body, completely suppressing his self-healing ability. Because he felt his power draining away extremely quickly, he feared that continuing would be disastrous, so he had to hurry up and finish what he was doing next.

Can I ask you for a favor?

"What is it?" Artemis looked at Night with a hint of panic. She had a vague feeling that Night was hiding something from her, and she had a bad feeling, as if Night was about to leave her completely at any moment.

As for his appearance, Night, who had just displayed his divine power not long ago, was now completely unharmed. However, he asked Artemis to take care of Helen in the future.

Why don't you do it yourself? You're clearly strong enough to protect her.

Artemis didn't say it aloud; she vaguely sensed something she didn't want to know.

Artemis agreed...

Ye was finally relieved.

With the protection of both the goddess of beauty and the moon goddess, Helen's safety is not a concern. Perhaps it would be good to let her go to the temple of some goddess and become a witch or priestess.

However, considering that the priestesses in the Temple of Athena are all goddess prostitutes, it is clear that sending Helen there is not a good choice.

Having received the promise of Artemis, the pure virgin goddess, Night could finally proceed with what she was about to do without any worries.

He then asked the heroes to make room for him and walked to the center.

"Is this the right spot?" Hermes, the god who was to be the witness and judge and was responsible for the subsequent visual inspection, asked.

“That’s right… Starting from this point, in terms of direction—!” Night looked in a certain direction.

The direction he was facing at that moment—a straight line drawn from here, starting from the night—was exactly parallel to the shipping route along the Trojan coast.

All the heroes took a deep breath, widened their eyes, and stared intently at Griffith.

Just how far can his attacks reach?

What weapons and methods will they use to launch the attack?

Aeneas and other Trojan royal heroes watched with great anxiety.

They couldn't understand why Hector, as the supreme military commander of Troy, hadn't immediately refused such an absurd wager, but instead allowed things to escalate to their current state.

Even after the betting agreement was made, the hero sought out the gods to act as judges.

Reality is not a fairy tale; it's not romantic at all.

The heroes felt fear and anxiety that the fate of their nation, their homes, and their future would be in the hands of one man.

This was a gamble that neither Greece nor Troy believed could create a miracle.

Then, the wind picked up!

A gust of wind swept in from afar, and the heroes suddenly realized a problem—'It's a headwind.'

Pushing against the wind must be much more difficult than pushing with the wind.

Hermes, being very understanding, asked, "Should we change direction?"

Night: "No need..."

Even before the attack occurred, he already had a vague intuition that he could not only perfectly achieve his goal, but might even exceed that distance.

They wanted to stretch across an 8,000-mile-long coastline and completely envelop Troy in their protective domain.

If such a miracle were to occur.

That way, Troy could be preserved while Agamemnon was left speechless.

This is a blow that will end the war; such a blow is no longer something that can be decided by the mere direction of the wind.

However, it is equally impossible to reach a level sufficient to create miracles without paying a price.

Roar! A massive black dragon phantom suddenly appeared behind the night, and then the dragon transformation began.

It did not transform into a giant dragon, but rather took on a monstrous form resembling a dragon-man.
