Simulate the universe, starting with speedrunning Greek.

Of course, whoever believes that will die quickly.

In some versions, Satan is even the incarnation of God. Although this is a heretical doctrine of Satanism, everything in the world was created by God, and he can be anything he wants.

Existence implies rationality...

In a world where gods truly exist, is Satan's purpose to diminish the supreme gods of other pantheons in order to achieve the unique and supreme status of God?

So now he can be said to have fallen into a vortex of massive scale.

Chapter Four: The sword cannot be drawn yet; the desire to save the world stirs within.

When Christianity, which originated from Judaism, reached its zenith and dethroned other pantheons, all the omnipotent gods, creator gods, and supreme gods in various worlds were reduced to demons, the moment their spiritual status was degraded.

The truly terrifying aspects of the biblical pantheon will then be revealed.

To what extent that person's status will expand is something Ye cannot currently imagine.

If this thing under your feet is a preparation for the future birth of Jesus and for Christianity to reach its peak, then...

So where does he stand in this era of trends?

Most importantly, what is God's power at this time? If it is truly as the Bible describes, even if all twelve Roman gods appeared, they would be easy prey.

However, considering that the supreme gods of various mythologies like to copy each other's settings, the omnipotent setting has been overused and killed off in various pantheons. If your setting is stronger than mine, I will set it to be stronger than yours, always adding one more to your strength.

The situation may not be as bad as we imagine.

Whoever can suppress all voices with absolute force, their own setting is the only truth.

Unless in later settings all the other supreme gods are relegated to the background of the biblical system to highlight the one true God, and are reduced to demonic beings, there is still hope.

Christianity has not yet been established. Although Judaism, as the predecessor of Christianity, has some fame, the supreme gods of other pantheons are still praised and worshipped as omnipotent in their respective pantheons.

...Night has a strong aura of Greek mythology, which naturally makes her more likely to be regarded as belonging to the Greek mythological camp.

It was blessed by many Greek gods and also possessed the blessing of the Roman native will.

If Christianity were to spread throughout the Roman Empire in the future, the probability of being targeted at night would be at least 100%, if not 100%.

He also killed Dionysus, who would have otherwise sided with the biblical system, taking into account his connection with Jesus.

If Dionysus was simply a pawn planted in Greek mythology within the biblical pantheon, then great—this move has thoroughly offended the opposing superpower.

Fortunately, judging from the experience of the Greek world, the gods of that world, while possessing some power, were not too outrageous.

If they were to be stacked according to their respective chaotic mythological settings, filled with all sorts of capitalized 'invincible' settings, Ye Zhen was worried that in the end, a situation would arise where things like 'you are ineffective, I am ineffective, I am ineffective, you are ineffective, I am invincible' would also arise.

so--

What should be done with this thing under his foot? Leaving it alone is definitely not an option; he's not so carefree as to live comfortably on this kind of doomsday-level time bomb.

It hasn't been many years since that holy child was born.

If the significance of Satan's appearance is to denigrate the supreme God of his pantheon, it's like the usual trick of the gods in the biblical system: they give you advance notice before revealing themselves, creating a sense of mystery, and even if they bring down calamities, they will inform you in advance.

I am the one who brought down the calamity, but those who are saved and survive should be grateful to the God who brought the calamity.

The right of interpretation belongs entirely to God...

Although nominally a demon, he actually belongs to Satan within the biblical pantheon. Isn't his appearance like a calamity that "falls from the sky"?

If they cause trouble under the names of other native pantheons, and then Jesus himself appears to manifest in public, then the native Greek gods—no, they should now be called the twelve Roman gods.

It is obvious what kind of blow and to what extent the prestige and faith of the Roman gods would be damaged in their homeland.

The enormous beast did not awaken, but the evil emanating from its body continued to affect the city and the country, leading them toward depravity and corruption.

This is both a 'temptator' and a 'seducer'.

The impression people have of ancient Rome in the future is indeed that it was barbaric and brutal, greedy and corrupt, and perished amidst its prosperity. This is probably not just a problem of the Romans themselves, but also because of the enormous original sin that constantly led them to depravity.

Ultimately, who will be blamed for all the original sins and mistakes committed by the Romans? It's up to the one who saved them.

Even considering his relationship with Athena and Artemis, he couldn't stand by and watch the situation continue without knowing the true state of the twelve Olympian gods.

Whether the twelve Olympian gods live or die is none of his concern, and whether Zeus lives or dies is even less important to him. If it were just about killing Zeus, he would wholeheartedly support the one who would settle in Rome, but Artemis and the others cannot be harmed.

Oh! Right, add a little something—

His counterpart, whom Athena named 'Set', is the god whom the future demon king, who is tormented by this thing beneath his feet, is the supreme Egyptian god Set.

This can be considered a natural counter-stance.

The night deepens perception, allowing one to sense the lamentations of this Roman land.

How can you not feel pain when that thing is parasitizing your body?

The will of Rome itself is pleading for his help...

No, it should be said that the will of Rome itself has been unconsciously calling for help all along. It is not calling for help from any specific person, but from the whole world, but no one is responding.

It has no intelligence, but it possesses something almost instinctive.

But it is clear that normal human senses cannot hear the earth's cries for help.

Until this day, the night, when the soul had become infinitely vast, heard the mournful cry of the world, like a low weeping.

The world is wailing...

Ye felt a sudden, strong urge within her, as if some power deep within her soul was being stimulated and slowly awakening.

He suppressed his impulse for the time being.

'Does the savior want to save the earth and crush the impulses of evil?'

But... not yet!

If he were to confront that behemoth now, the Roman capital would be the first to fall, and he didn't yet have the strength to be certain of defeating it.

If the power he possessed as Talos were still present, it would be fine, but now, even forcibly unleashing the power of the Holy Sword, he can't instantly defeat the opponent.

If the battle cannot be resolved in one go, it will drag on into a long-term conflict. Given that his combat strength is affected by basic stats, he is likely to find himself in a situation where he is being attacked on one side.

Although the opponent cannot kill you, it will still lead to a very painful entanglement.

So, aside from continuing to become stronger...

There's not much left to do, so—find outside help?

Ye frowned slightly.

"It seems there's been a problem with the Twelve Olympian Gods; they're powerless to deal with this behemoth. They're completely unreliable..."

As for other pantheons, they may be facing a similar situation to Rome at this moment.

The Celtics seem to be throwing faster... The pantheon is down to just a handful of big cats and little cats.

However, if there is a common enemy, uniting multiple pantheons does not preclude the possibility of stopping the rise of monotheism.

But the most fundamental thing is to improve one's own strength.

Chapter Five: Crossing the Rhine – Perhaps we can follow Feige's path and leave him with nowhere to go.

Thinking of the Greek universe, which is already in a state of stagnation, and the Roman universe, which, like Greece, originated from the same system.

If he continues to simulate in the Roman universe, he will most likely only get involved in some historical events. Apart from that, simulating the same era as Jesus might be somewhat interesting, but he doesn't think he has the strength to access that level of instance.

After all, according to some versions of the Trinity concept, Jesus and that being are the same person.

Even if there are passages in the Bible that resemble a dialogue between the Lord (God) and the Lord (Jesus).

There is only one Lord. When you ask which Lord is being referred to in the Bible, or what the difference is between the two "Lords," you have already fallen into a cognitive trap...

Just like there is only one 'Satan'—

To be honest, the image of the ancient serpent is probably not its original form. Just as the fallen angel Lucifer is a fictional character, the ancient serpent is a fictional representation of the Egyptian evil god Set, who possesses some of the characteristics of a black dragon.

There is not much difference between facing Jesus and facing that being.

In conclusion, the existing universe is clearly insufficient to meet Ye's urgent need to become stronger in the short term, or it is too dangerous and the benefits are disproportionate, failing to satisfy his desire to continue becoming stronger.

So, is changing the map the only solution...?

……

Having just thought himself invincible, he now faces an even greater sense of urgency than before, after struggling for survival, in order to cope with the grand future.

He doesn't have much time left.

Whether Jesus Christ is friend or foe is still unclear, but—he will not allow this thing under his feet to continue to exist.

Whether it was out of a special sentiment as the founding emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, or because he feared the future usurpation of the name of Seth, or perhaps a savior complex, his tolerance for the thing beneath his feet was almost zero.

Open the map! Open the map! Open the map!

Since there are no longer enough worlds to simulate, let's proceed with the possibility originally envisioned...

Night's gaze was fixed on the distance, towards Gaul.

When discussing Gaul, one cannot ignore the majority of the Celts who inhabited Gaul and their mythological Celtic pantheon.

However, the descriptions of the gods in this pantheon have mostly disappeared or been destroyed in the future, and the story of Nuada the Silver-Armed, the last god-king of the ancient Danu tribe, is so distant that it is impossible to verify.

If one were to travel to that land, the few epic fragments that Ye is familiar with that have left a significant impact on the world are probably only the mythological epics featuring heroes such as Cú Chulainn, Finn, and King Arthur.

Although both were eras of heroes and frequent participants in the neighboring cup wars, they rarely featured scenes of deities appearing.

Perhaps we could gamble on randomly getting to Cú Chulainn's era and the story of him going to the Land of Shadows to study together. Although I wouldn't say his martial arts skills are the best among all heroes, they are sufficient for now.

Night's gaze shifted slightly to the direction of the land bordering Gaul, home to the Germanic people, now considered barbarians by the Romans.

Unlike the Celtic pantheon, which was practically defunct and would soon collapse under the invasion of Christian mythology, completely transformed into the likeness of the other, and whose knightly teams were formed during the time of King Arthur in search of the Holy Grail.

Across the Rhine River, further north than that German land, lies the Scandinavian Peninsula, the birthplace of the Norse pantheon.

That area is the territory of countries such as Sweden and Finland.

While monotheism swept across the European continent and went on a killing spree, the Norse pantheon, due to its more distant origins, had ample time to develop.

Originally just one branch of Germanic mythology, it evolved its own mythology without external pressure, with more and more legends becoming more comprehensive and legendary, gradually transforming into one of the major European pantheons whose fame rivals that of the Greek pantheon.

At this point in time, you're unlikely to encounter anything related to monotheism in the Nordic territories.

If that thing down there really is what Ye thought, and it's related to Christianity...

So his previous assumption and conjecture are correct—'Corresponding mythological worlds exist in other regions as well.'

A purely Roman worldview wouldn't include its pantheon of powers, besides its close relative, Greece.
