Simulate the universe, starting with speedrunning Greek.

Indeed, the 'sin' within her heart, the evil instinct to fulfill her destiny, is uncontrollable. She is, in essence, still a demonic being.

While Gofaig was helping humans, he was also struggling to overcome his inner conflict and was caught in a state of inner turmoil and sadness. Meanwhile, two special guests arrived in the snowy town today!

Chapter Seventy-Four: Of course, my king! The trust lacking among the gods was found among humans.

Back to the topic——

After Odin, the king of the gods, pondered how to conquer mankind, he determined a new method—the golden apple.

He would not take any further action until the Golden Apple arrived, and instead, he was very patient, simply continuing to entertain the night each day, instructing the goddess Freya to treat the Sun King well and keep him here as long as possible.

Even so, Odin could not restrict Night's freedom. He was the king of mankind, the guardian god of mankind, and the creator. He could not stay in the Aesir forever. When Night expressed his desire to return to the earth to see how his children were doing... even without informing Odin, the goddess Freya agreed and expressed her desire to accompany him.

This made Frey, Freya's brother, who had been observing her closely recently, fearing that his sister might suffer at the hands of the God of Man, feel as if he had been observing in vain.

His worries seemed unnecessary? This wasn't even a question of whether the other party would make a move; his own sister was practically offering herself up for free!

However, considering the plan sent back by the Vanir gods—creating a powerful human witch to lead humanity to corruption and a split with the Aesir—not only would Odin lose face, but humanity, which would completely turn against the gods, would likely meet a tragic end.

Freya's continued friendship with the god of humanity might not be a good thing.

The witches created by the Vanir gods are leading the creations of the human gods to their doom, using them purely as tools. This has caused the god Frey great distress, as he is torn between telling Freyja about this, for there's no guarantee that the moment he finishes speaking, Freyja will run off and tell the Sun King Gwyn the whole plan.

After all, who would have thought that Freya would fall for the God of Humanity so quickly after just one meeting?

When the Vanir gods carried out that plan, Freya didn't even know the god of man. She even felt wronged and disgusted by being forced by Odin to serve him. Naturally, the Vanir gods didn't have any good feelings towards humans, who were the creations of this god of man.

But given the current situation, shouldn't we tell our family and call off the plan immediately?

And in the brief moment Frey was preoccupied with these matters, his subject of observation and his sister suddenly vanished—yes, vanished. Even his sister Freya disappeared from his Asgard.

Frey was taken aback and instinctively released his divine sense to search, but he could no longer find the two figures or their aura in the Asgard realm.

Meanwhile, Night and Freya had already arrived on Earth without anyone noticing. After undergoing a spell to induce cognitive impairment and donning cloaks, the two transformed into wandering travelers and unknowingly arrived at a snowy town.

Night wanted to go back and see how Ash was doing, while Freya wanted to understand what kind of life forms the humans Night had created were.

“They are lovely lives (children) that I am proud of, that have endless possibilities.” That’s how Ye responded with a smile, without the slightest hesitation or doubt.

This piqued Freya's curiosity. Night reached out her hand, inviting her to come and see: "Would you like to see how my wonderful children live... to see the simple yet fulfilling and happy lives of humans, unlike those born powerful and omnipotent gods!"

A simple yet fulfilling life—is that what a happy life is?

Gods who are born powerful and omnipotent, and even gods who are constantly pursuing greater power, naturally cannot understand why the weak can still obtain happiness.

But she sensed a vague concept of spiritual beauty from it. The goddess of love, who already had the rudiments of the future goddess of beauty, had a heart that yearned for beauty. Coupled with her affection for the night, she blushed and reached out to place her slender, jade-like hand into the night's warm palm.

“Of course—my king!” Freya said in a low voice, bowing her head shyly yet eagerly.

Despite not being a creation of the night, she regarded it as her king; such ambiguous statements clearly revealed the goddess's direct affection for her.

Ye smiled knowingly—and then led them forward. Their first stop was the snow-capped mountains on the outermost edge of the human-inhabited area, where they completely withdrew their divine power and stepped into this land as human travelers.

According to Freya, she was very interested in the way humans lived happily, as described by Night. And since she wanted to experience it more deeply, she decided to suppress her powers and walk the earth like an ordinary person.

Secretly, she longed to spend more time with Lord Gwyn, the Sun King; these were precious moments alone together. If they flew, wouldn't the journey end too quickly? This little thought—yet it wasn't unpleasant. When she spoke these words, Freya, stammering and blushing, was completely unlike her usual aloof self. She was not only love-struck—but also possessed a touch of cunning—the Vanir princess of the gods…

Although he saw through her lack of frankness, he smiled and, of course, wouldn't be so blunt as to expose her. He agreed.

When the two arrived at this incredibly beautiful town, it was as if they had suddenly stepped into another world after leaving the desolate snowfield and entering a human town, much like the Peach Blossom Spring... 'The land was flat and spacious, the houses were neatly arranged, and there were fertile fields, beautiful ponds, mulberry trees and bamboo groves.'

When they saw the thriving scene, the people they passed by were all laughing and chatting happily.

Everyone has their own things to do, but even at work, their faces are full of smiles and they are very motivated... That kind of vigor and smiles full of longing and confidence for the future make the snow-capped mountains not far from the town seem less desolate and scary.

This fairytale-like town is as warm as a little sun.

Is this—the humankind created by Gwyn, the Sun King? When Freya saw those small, simple yet beautiful and cozy houses, and those humans with faces similar to those of the gods, all with smiles on their faces, completely unguarded with each other, and as close as family, she was somewhat lost in thought.

Such a harmonious scene is almost never seen among the Aesir gods.

Even at banquets, the Aesir gods would never be so trusting and close to each other. After all, the Norse gods, who came from Chaos, have always lived in a great war with distant blood relatives like the Frost Giants for survival. Trust is a very precious thing in Norse mythology. For survival, they prefer to use their fists to speak rather than communicate with others, and to forcefully achieve their will with their powerful strength.

For a moment, Freya was so overwhelmed by the beautiful scene before her that she felt somewhat dazed.

Humans are so much weaker than gods, so why can they obtain things that even the gods cannot obtain?

Chapter 75 Frey, your sister is amazing! Good verbal tic should be kept.

At the same time, while also attracted by these sights, Night felt something completely different from Freya. She discovered that this town was unique.

Even while in the realm of the gods, he did not forget to keep an eye on the progress of human development. Logically speaking, even with the guidance of the Ashes, it would have been impossible for technology to become so widespread and developed to such an extent that even the snowy town, which was the most remote area, had become so prosperous.

Ye, with his five senses, quickly discovered the source of the town's peculiarity from the casual conversations of those people.

"The witch's help? I see..."

Has someone intervened and guided the technological advancements of humanity here? A witch?

If she really is a witch, then the only beings in this era who can be called witches are—!

Soon, Ye found the corresponding figure in Norse mythology in his mind. A malevolent god, symbolizing human lust and greed, driving humanity to laziness, cruelty, and debauchery.

She is a witch who has forged a deep connection with humans and draws power from their original sin. At her strongest, she even dared to challenge the gods alone, attempting to stand on equal footing with the Aesir.

Even the furious gods could not kill her; whether pierced by divine spears or burned to ashes by the fire of the sun, she always managed to revive.

However, Ye hadn't yet confirmed the other party's identity. After all, if it were the witch described in mythology, although she would guide humanity's growth, there was no reason for her to make the humans in front of her appear prosperous and thriving. Instead, they should have become like a group of gamblers, living a life of debauchery and decadence.

Countless beauties, inexhaustible food, and the ultimate in pleasure—these things most likely to corrupt humanity—were not found in the town. Although the town has developed, it has benefited more from technological support and sharing; the acquisition of these things still relies on the hard work of humankind. This is the essential difference in achieving the current situation.

He also heard something interesting, which made Ye decide to meet this witch.

'The witch looks a lot like Queen Ash?'

Upon hearing this information, I thought, 'It shouldn't be Ash—' I had contacted him just the night before, and he's still in the capital.

"What's wrong? G...Gwen-sama?" Freya noticed Night lost in thought and instinctively asked with concern. She had originally intended to call him Gwyn-sama, but then realized they were currently disguised as ordinary humans, even concealing their divine powers. To walk and communicate like humans, she quickly changed her address to the slightly awkward "brother-sama," which had a slight quirk.

After calling out, Freya's gaze darted around, her whole body flushed with embarrassment, her cheeks burning with shame. She had just called the prince "brother"?

Freya had never addressed her real brother Frey so intimately. This address sounded more like a playful, affectionate tease than a normal greeting. Freya, whose brain was already overloaded, even forgot that they were merely concealing their divine power, not truly devoid of it; they could communicate telepathically even without speaking.

"What did you just call me?" Freya, who hadn't expected Freya to suddenly give her such a surprise, widened her eyes slightly, revealing a look of astonishment.

Freya: "I...I—"

Night suddenly spoke: "Say it again—!"

Freya blushed: "G-G-Lord?"

Hiss! When I saw those alluring, rosy lips, uttering that intimate name in a trembling voice as if it were a mosquito's buzz.

Fantastic! Especially Freya's pet bear, as tall and white as the snow-capped mountains next door, whose arms couldn't even hold her. Her fair skin was tinged with the color of maple leaves, and her dazzling wavy golden hair, at Night's suggestion, was tied into a long, flowing style with a small braid on one side. The cute little sister style combined with her overly voluptuous figure created a contrast that gave Night a novel sensory experience that she had never felt even with Aphrodite.

Excellent—Night, being a carnivore who never pretends to be serious, makes no attempt to hide her admiration…

Freya's talent for role-playing will be a great advantage in the future, even when she does some special things. So he said, "While we are in the human world, please continue to call me that!"

This good habit (verbal tic) should be maintained!! The night I inexplicably wanted to say 'Freya, your sister is amazing!', Freya is now my sister too!

On the other side, Freya, who looked bewildered and blushed, didn't react at first, but she wasn't completely clueless. Unlike Ash when she was born, who was like a blank sheet of paper, Freya was obviously better able to grasp some key points.

Night's attitude surprised and embarrassed Freya, but also stirred a sense of anticipation, so she naturally didn't refuse. Although she still stammered, her shy, brotherly voice was enough to make any man lose himself. After some conversation, Freya, who also learned of the witch's existence, became somewhat interested.

Especially the claim that it's similar to Queen Ash—! When the gods discovered humans before, many male gods were attracted to the human world, and Queen Ash's beauty accounted for at least half of that attraction.

Even the gods, who have witnessed the beauty of numerous goddesses and should have a high resistance to beauty, could not resist her charm. Just how beautiful is Ash?

Given Freya's previous precarious and awkward position within the Aesir, even though the gods doted on her and showered her with attention, Freya lived very cautiously and thus paid little attention to the earth, never having seen Queen Ash's appearance.

At this moment, she couldn't help but feel endless curiosity about the witch's face.

Ash was the Sun King's most satisfying creation, personally appointed as a sage and queen. People usually create their most satisfying works according to their ideal type.

Once Freya had this thought, she became increasingly unable to control her desire to see Ash and the witch who looked like Ash.

Brother's ideal type?!

I wonder if I resemble Queen Ash in appearance...

I've heard that Queen Ash is blonde, and so am I. Ash's skin is as white as snow on a mountain, yet with a healthy, rosy glow. Freya looked at her own well-maintained, moisturized, and delicate skin, and her radiant, full blonde hair—very good! She's just as good!

I wonder what Ash's personality is like. As for the Queen—does Lord Gege prefer the more domineering type? Meanwhile, Freya, completely unaware that she was too love-struck and had gone down the path of giving herself away, was no longer associated with the image of a queen.

However, in public she is a queen, a goddess who is high and mighty, but in private—well, this kind of contrast isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Chapter 76 Do you need a reason to help your brothers and sisters?

Unaware that he had been targeted by God, and also by the creator of humanity whom he deeply respected and admired, Gopha Ig was recently troubled by something.

Due to the harsh geological and living environment of Northern Europe, even though the land in the mythological world is many times larger, the Nordic world is like an enlarged version of Iceland in reality. Even though, because it is a mythological world, there are many lush and verdant lands, there are many more harsh terrains such as snow-capped mountains and volcanoes.

Although the second-generation humans are the embodiment of fire, this is more of a conceptual 'fire'. They are more resistant to the mysterious, and although their cold resistance is certainly much higher than that of ordinary humans, they will still feel cold when winter is coming.

Even if humans are physically capable of enduring it on their own, it's always better to live a more comfortable life than to suffer from the biting cold.

Now, the second generation of humans is also mating and having offspring. Human infants clearly don't have the same level of immunity as adults. Even for the sake of the children, Gofaig is considering ways to exacerbate global warming.

But unlike the almost omnipotent witch in mythology, when High Magician Ig first appeared, she was more like a magician or sorcerer than an all-powerful witch.

She used air currents to propel the beautiful little fairies into the sky, tossing them high into the air as they played and laughed, attracting the attention of many humans.

Humans were captivated by this beautiful scene and developed a longing and fantasy about the witch's power... These fantasies (imagination) made High Fayg even more powerful.

After receiving a power boost from humans, the High Faig began to help humans fulfill some of their wishes within her power. The more wishes she fulfilled, the more humans supported her—and the stronger her power became!

When humans feel that she should have certain abilities, she will demonstrate the corresponding power, eventually becoming more and more omnipotent.

This is a virtuous cycle—it’s not hard to see from this that High Fayg follows a very idealistic path of power. The more humans believe in her, the stronger she becomes, and she even gains an extremely strong immortality that the gods cannot kill.

This is similar to the Unruly Gods in the Gods of the neighboring world of Godkiller. As long as there are mythological records about them, they will not truly perish. They can continuously awaken from the myths and gain powerful strength by correcting the mythological history.

Even non-existent, fictitious characters can be born from fantasy. Built upon human imagination, they possess cataclysmic power far exceeding that of ordinary mortals. This is the secret to how witches can become as powerful as gods!

As mentioned before, this self-proclaimed counterfeit version of Highphaeg, due to the Vanir gods' mistake, has no intention of harming humans at all, and even strongly resists such things.

Unwilling to let humanity fall into depravity, she only ever showed glimpses of her power, and never even considered spreading it to other human cities.

On the contrary, as a witch, she has been 'willingly degenerating' and slacking off in completing the tasks given to her by the gods, never taking the initiative... How could she possibly become stronger?

From birth until now, her strength has never taken off or achieved a qualitative leap.

If she were from mythology, she wouldn't need to worry about this at all. She could simply punch a snow mountain to shatter it, or use a spell to warm the atmosphere and revive all things.

As for whether doing so would cause the seasonal changes to become abnormal and lead to some strange and calamities in the world, that version of High Fayeg naturally wouldn't care about any world crisis.

She does whatever she wants... Unconditionally indulging humans is her main policy!
