Simulate the universe, starting with speedrunning Greek.

but--

'It's all just an illusion.'

In this era where miracles are rare, especially among the Germanic barbarians who are outsiders and whose banditry is rampant, everyone is a materialist warrior!

Gods and spirits can't possibly exist, right?

It's all just something made up by people...

The concept of "presence" is even more mysterious; perhaps it's just something that looks intimidating?

But such a large and menacing army certainly didn't come with the intention of friendly exchange.

They're not so brain-dead as to think that way!

"Attack—!! Stop the enemy... on the Rhine!" Finally, the two leaders looked at each other and saw a hint of fear and suppressed emotion in each other's eyes.

The best way to deal with fear is to eliminate it.

However, when the archers who accompanied them prepared, set up their longbows, and nervously waited for the enemy to come into range before attacking immediately.

Seeing that bringing elite troops this time was indeed the right decision, the Germans' anxious hearts finally eased a little.

next moment--

Countless golden flashes suddenly appeared above the warship.

The halos opened, then they all fired simultaneously, boom!

Suddenly, countless light cannons bombarded the opposite bank.

The Germans were completely stunned, and their mentality collapsed instantly.

What?! An arrow against a light cannon?! What the hell?! The other side is cheating!

That's right, a light cannon! This is a method that, after being upgraded as a legendary weapon, allows soldiers to unleash a torrent of magic to attack.

Although one person cannot unleash such an attack, they are an army formation.

The combined magic of a group of people is enough to deliver a long-range attack like a light cannon.

On the way here, Ye had already conveyed the purpose of this trip to all the soldiers through his mind.

Those who respond to his call are undoubtedly his absolutely loyal and trustworthy warriors, not to mention his absolute control over the military, so he can naturally trust them to tell him part of the purpose.

This is also their main task going forward, and it's not acceptable to leave the situation unexplained.

However, Ye did not reveal more details, only stating the true purpose: ostensibly to pursue Roman slaves, but in reality to conquer the entire Germanic lands.

Their mission this time was to sweep across this land, which had been ravaged by Germanic barbarians, and give it a new name in the shortest possible time.

To this-

Neither the Greeks nor the Romans saw anything wrong with this.

Even the heroes...! The values ​​upheld by the Greek heroes inherently contained a element of banditry and individualistic heroism.

For them, attacking foreign tribes and instigating internal wars are two completely different things.

Expanding territory on the battlefield is a great honor, especially when it is done alongside the former savior of the Greek world.

Even so, the heroes unanimously believed that Griffith might not be trying to transform into absolute and immense evil again, as he had done in Greece, to stand against the world and put it to the test.

Otherwise, how could someone who yearns for peace, kindness, nobility, and beauty do something so barbaric as to start a war?

The Greek heroes, who idealized Griffith too much in their minds and were practically all Griffith fans, never doubted that this was an unjust war.

That man's 'benevolence' could even be extended to a group of foreign barbarians. Although they could not be so 'benevolent' or become such people, it did not prevent them from respecting and admiring such a person.

Very good——!

Should I be the bad guy?

They've wanted to try this for a long time.

After all, when you've been a hero for too long, you sometimes want to try something different.

If Griffiths has to go to hell again this time.

As fellow members of the evil party, we must get there first!

Thinking of this, the heroes became completely excited, their whole bodies trembling with excitement at the impending war!

I can hardly contain my desire to fight!

Chapter Fifteen: Does the inability to comprehend forces beyond our comprehension mean they do not exist?

As the saying goes, the most deadly thing is the unwitting overthinking. This time, Ye didn't actually have such lofty aspirations; he was simply exploring the map.

The heroes, however, were all menacing, driven by a desire to save others and ready to beat them to death. They believed that if they didn't go all out, it wouldn't be a trial! With this mindset, they looked more like a group of villains than heroes.

Caesar on the warship trembled even more in fear.

No, maybe I really guessed wrong?

These are merely people with the same name as heroes; they are not the glorious, righteous, and renowned heroes of history.

What's with this ferocious aura of wanting to exterminate the Germans and scatter their ashes to the winds?

Surrounded by these terrifying auras, Caesar, who seemed on the verge of fainting at any moment, soon—

When he saw the simultaneous roar of light cannons unleashed from their warships, Caesar's mind went blank, and his gaze went vacant.

? ? ! !

I think I haven't wandered into the wrong world.

What happened to the (materialistic) real world we were promised? Shouldn't gods, magic, and all that be fictional things?

But what was that huge and thick array of light cannons just now?

The impact of today on Caesar was greater than that of his entire life.

This unbelievable reality shattered his worldview and even made him start to—regenerate his brain!

Ahh, the back of my head—it's shaking again!!

Even Julius Caesar was moved by the scene, which reshaped his worldview.

Young Caesar was relatively resilient, but the Germans were different.

Seeing this scene was like witnessing the outbreak of a mythical epic war.

Seeing the enemy's barrage of projectiles, the bows and arrows in their hands suddenly seemed less appealing.

This is even more outrageous than using millet and rifles to fight tanks.

Lagging behind the enemy's attack methods by at least several eras, the Germanic people watched in terror as the beams of light coalesced, and their bows and arrows fell to the ground with a clatter.

They screamed in terror, trying to run away, but how could a person outrun light?

The torrent of light instantly engulfed everything on the shore.

Achilles looked at the scene before him with some disappointment...

Humans in this era are far weaker than they were back then.

After the darkest age, with the sacrifice of Griffith and the destruction of Talos, humanity has developed for so many years, yet it has failed to surpass the past and instead shows signs of regression.

A strong sense of disappointment and frustration grew in his heart; if that were the case, wouldn't Griffith's life have been sacrificed in vain?

Achilles' gaze sharpened.

Although this is not Greece, and the weakness of the Germanic people doesn't prove anything, he was instilled with some basic information about the era when he arrived.

The Rome of this era were descendants of the Trojans and a continuation of the self-proclaimed Holy Roman Empire.

The intertwined destiny between Rome and Greece has continued from the time of Troy to the present day.

Ultimately, it's a matter between family members.

The other surrounding countries were all in a weak position in the face of the powerful Rome, but they were not entirely without the ability to fight back.

Such as England, Gaul (France), and now the Germanic peoples.

The Germanic barbarians who could fight the Roman army to a standstill under normal circumstances were already a standard for assessing the average combat level of humanity in the present day, and even a bit higher.

After all, the Germanic people had a certain advantage in terms of their tall stature.

What others perceive as powerful is incredibly weak in the eyes of true heroes like Achilles.

The comparison is too much! How could Achilles and his companions, who were living through the end of the Golden Age, be satisfied with such a 'weak' average physical condition? However, looking at the Germanic tribes being almost completely overwhelmed, Achilles and his companions also felt a sense of joy—cough, it was a complex emotion—when they saw the demon king Talos sweeping everything away back then.

This kind of thing is really—it's hard to stop.

Everything went smoothly—it went too smoothly!

Achilles and his men successfully reached the shore, and as expected, the enemy was wiped out on the shore.

They then launched a preemptive strike, invading the land without any intention of investigating the whereabouts of Spartacus and his companions.

If Caesar still didn't know the 'true purpose' of Night and the others at this point, he would be incredibly foolish.

The heroes led the legions on a journey, searching every inch of the land with meticulous precision, determined to completely conquer the Germanic people. If they could find anything along the way that was related to the Germanic gods, that would be even better.

After the command of the night, a man-made natural disaster began to strike the land of Germany.

Before the Germanic tribes could even react, they had already lost all the land around the Rhine River. By the time the Germanic tribes collectively felt the crisis and banded together to try to drive away these 'invaders', they were already at a disadvantage.

They thought that as strong as the Germans were, if they united, they could at least contain the enemy's offensive, if not defeat it.

As a result, the Germanic tribes suffered an even faster defeat on the main battlefield.

The heroes, who originally needed to search far and wide before engaging in battle, suddenly became incredibly energetic and unleashed their full power head-on...

Those highly skilled heroes, at least when they kill you, will make you die with a sense of shame, saying that you lost because of your lack of martial arts skills.

But those with exceptional physical talents, like Achilles, simply don't dodge attacks. In order to kill enemies with maximum efficiency, they transform into bulldozers and charge into the enemy ranks, swinging their weapons at high speed.

When the Germanic arrows and spears pierced Achilles' body, they couldn't even penetrate his flesh.

Countless Germans were devastated...

"What kind of monster is this?!"

How could human skin be harder than steel?

"Who are you... strong Greek! Why are you helping the Romans invade our land!"
