Simulate the universe, starting with speedrunning Greek.

Skadi frowned as Odin's zozazol became increasingly aggressive.

She naturally wanted to survive, and if given the chance, she would love to make herself stronger so that she could fight the Forest God again, or even kill all the gods!

She could easily lower her head for that.

Unwilling—! She wasn't afraid of death, but she was unwilling to die so simply. She hadn't even been able to defeat a single god.

"And the price?" Skadi suddenly took a deep breath and asked again.

Odin suddenly offered her another solution, giving her a way out. Surely it couldn't be without a price.

Skadi didn't believe Odin's high-sounding words about helping her. If he truly respected her father so much and couldn't bear to do such a thing, he wouldn't have led the gods to grind her father, who had already lost his fighting ability, to dust.

Not a single word Odin says is credible!

At this moment, Odin finally revealed his true intentions. He took on the role of Loki from the mythology and said, "There is no price to pay. Rather, the gods can give you more compensation. Since we killed one of your relatives, then—we will give you another."

As he spoke, Odin pointed to the gods—

"You can choose one of us as your husband, but this is not a choice you can make at will. We will conceal your bodies, and you can only choose a husband you like by the way you walk!"

This was Odin's own request in the mythology.

Odin could see that when he mentioned choosing a husband for Skadi, the gods were excited about Skadi, and even the depression caused by the news that the Sun King had a fiancée was dispelled.

Regardless of who Skadi chooses, it will undoubtedly be an unacceptable answer for the other gods who were not chosen. However, if it's based on feet, then it's entirely up to fate and whoever is lucky.

In the original story, Skadi was forced to agree to Odin's conditions at this point and ultimately chose Nidel, the king of the old Vanir gods, simply because his feet were very white and beautiful. Skadi mistook him for the handsome god of light, Hod.

However, the timeline of the mythology has already been disrupted.

Before the God of Light was born, the war between the Aesir and the Vanir was indefinitely delayed because Gophayg did not act recklessly as originally depicted in the myths.

Not to mention the rest, none of them are likely to be as attractive as Skadi, and even her original partner isn't here.

Skadi gritted her teeth—!

What compensation? This is the price we've paid!

Although it might sound like self-praise, with her beauty, would she really need to offer herself up so willingly?

Why must you choose one of your gods as your husband?

Although she couldn't figure out how her best friend, Jelday, suddenly appeared here and got involved with the Sun King.

But thinking of Yena's unforgettable beauty, which she had glimpsed from afar, and then looking at the uneven appearances of the gods before her, even the face of the god of fire, Loki, who had previously fled, was no match for her.

Despite having the same face—Zeldell's fiancé is so handsome—she still chooses a husband from among the gods, including the old man Odin.

The shameless Odin even included himself among the chosen gods.

Skadi was unaware that Odin had a problem in that area, otherwise she would have been even more shocked by this shameless behavior.

Old Deng, who is clearly incapable of having sex, still comes out to harm people.

But it seems there's no other choice. Do we really have to pick one from this bunch of worthless scoundrels?

Unlike in mythology, Skadi's horizons have already been broadened... not to mention her best friend has found an exceptionally outstanding partner, while she can only pan for gold in the dung heap.

The bitterness was indescribable to outsiders!

Fortunately, Zelda hadn't forgotten Skadi. Also dissatisfied with Odin's coercive tactics, she suddenly spoke up—

"Wait, Skadi is also His Majesty the Sun King's fiancée—!! She cannot marry another god!"

what?

I was shocked by the astonishing amount of information.

For a moment, including Skadi herself, the gods' brains went blank upon hearing Zelda's sudden shout.

How is this going?

—Skadi, too?

Skadi herself stared wide-eyed in astonishment: ? ? ? Me too? The Sun King's fiancée! How come I didn't know about this?

I've gotten myself involved in all this gossip... What the heck?

Meanwhile, Zelda took a deep breath—well, the contract made in the name of 'Skadi' isn't just about her, the 'Skadi'; even the real Skadi isn't exactly a fiancée…it doesn't make sense, does it?!

In a moment of desperation, this was the only reason Jelda could come up with.

Since she was spared because of her status as a fiancée, while Skadi is still threatened, then making Skadi the Sun King's fiancée—Odin—is a no-brainer!

I have to say, this logic is amazing... even Loki would be impressed. He actually found two goddesses for his king, and they are even sisters who look incredibly alike!

Meanwhile, Odin on the other side: "…………!"

He originally intended to keep Skadi among the Aesir, and much of his thinking was to use Skadi's connection with Zelda to strengthen the relationship with the gods of man.

After all, this Odin isn't the mythical king who still had his kidneys intact and harbored feelings for Skadi...

Although he still had some thoughts, under the forced calm buff, he valued the connection between Skadi and Zelda more at this moment.

result--

You're telling me you're also the fiancée of the God of Mankind?!

At this moment, Odin's expression turned completely gloomy, looking as ugly as if he had eaten shit.

Why didn't you say so earlier that you had a connection with the god of humanity?

When Skadi came to challenge him, the god of men didn't react at all among the gods. Odin actually knew that Zelda was probably talking nonsense and lying.

But at this point, what matters is no longer whether the words spoken are the truth or a lie, but rather the other person's attitude...

night:……? ?

I heard someone say that she is my fiancée?

Chapter 136: You want me to simulate a universe within a simulated universe? What shortcut is there to get high scores?

Skadi instinctively looked in the direction of the Sun King.

The fleeting glimpse from afar last time still vividly evokes the stunning scene before my eyes.

She lowered her head slightly, her warrior's fierceness gone, and a blush crept onto her face.

—Standing like a peony, sitting like a peony, walking like a lily.

The goddess of winter begins to reveal the gentle beauty that belongs to women.

Skadi felt incredibly strange at that moment, and even wanted to grab Zelda and ask her a good question...? ?? You brought your man here to be my husband? Seriously?

Then I won't hold back—! Ahem, just kidding.

Having once again admired the night's magnificent beauty up close, and in order to escape Odin's scheme, Skadi hesitated for only 0.0001 seconds before resolutely saying, "That's right... I—"

Suddenly, Skadi's eyes widened, revealing an expression of disbelief.

The moment she acknowledged her identity, the contract made in the name of 'Skadi' was instantly linked to her.

Linking two Skadis together—what kind of link summoning is this?!

Skadi: ! !

What?! This really happened?! Skadi was completely bewildered, her face flushed. She couldn't remember ever making such a vow, but now that force of fate was indeed acting on her, telling her that she had to fulfill the contract, or something terrible would happen.

Zelda's promise, made by taking advantage of Skadi's loophole, would not have had any legal effect in the Nordic world unless the winter goddess herself acknowledged it. But now, she has acknowledged it.

And at this moment, the same night felt that vow, although—but…

What was once one portion has now become two. This struck Ye as quite—magical!

What, can marriage certificates be shared via a hotspot mode?

Skadi: "I... am indeed... his fiancée..."

Skadi, having uttered those words with difficulty and shame, had exhausted her last bit of courage. Now that things had come to this, she had no choice but to go all the way down the dark path!

If Skadi had to choose, she would prefer the powerful and most handsome Sun King among the gods.

As for listening to Odin's advice on opening blind boxes?!

Don't be ridiculous. Among this bunch of oddballs, the one with the best appearance and temperament is actually Odin, that old man. After all, the king of gods has his own charm. But even the best one is not worthy to carry the shoes of the Sun King.

This is going to kill me!

Thinking of this, Skadi glanced at Odin's one-eyed old man appearance and shuddered. She lowered her head again, transforming into a penitent... She almost vomited.

No, let's take another look at the Sun King's eyes!

After seeing beautiful things, looking at anything else is like torturing your eyes.

Her eyes bore a burden that a young giant of her age should not have to bear.

On the other side, Odin's expression turned even uglier. Don't think he didn't notice that action just now.

At this point, Ye, one of the parties involved, did not respond.

The gods considered no response the best response they could give.

Just like Odin's previous silence, which indicated he was considering the pros and cons by not directly denying it, the Sun King's current silence can almost be seen as tacit agreement.

Upon seeing this, Odin closed his eyes and pondered for a long time before suddenly speaking: "Sun King! Let's continue our discussion—I can grant your third request... I can even grant Itong the status of the goddess of youth, allowing her to share in half the wealth of the Tree of Life."

Night looked at Odin, knowing that Odin couldn't possibly give him so many benefits for nothing without asking for anything in return.

really--

Odin then changed the subject: "But—in exchange, God of Mankind, how about a wager with me? I can grant all your previous requests and also drop the matter of your fiancées causing such a ruckus among the Aesir. This is the sincerity of the gods—and in return, it is time for you to show your sincerity."

Night: "A bet? What do you want to bet with me on?"

When Odin asked this question that night, seemingly interested, his furrowed brow finally relaxed a little. He had finally figured out how to persuade—no… how to win over the god of man to join the ranks of the gods!

Odin then proposed an amazing game, which even the gods found incredible, a fantastical and fantastical journey through time and space.

Odin: "What you need is the Well of Urd, where all the possibilities of destiny in the past, present, and future of the Norse world are linked. And what unfolds around this world—"

Let's embark on a journey of destiny!

No, more accurately, it's a journey through parallel world possibilities!! On the timeline of the world's destiny, there are countless possibilities for the future, and based on the current development of the main world's time and space, countless stories of smaller worlds have emerged.

Like the Ring Trilogy of the Nibelungs, the same man named 'Siegfried' has a different background and experiences, creating similar yet ambiguous legends.

Norse mythology can be considered the earliest mythological world to feature practitioners of parallel universes. Therefore, hearing such novel concepts from Odin, that the Night is different from the other gods—is not surprising at all.
