Simulating the Universe, Starting with Speedrunning Greece

“I refuse—give it up, Zeus.

I will not agree to your filthy request. I am disgusted by the thought of you having such thoughts about your own child."

Boom~!!! The thunder of destruction sounded outside the window.

In an instant, it seemed as if the entire universe was about to be destroyed by entropy, the greatest chaos, and the anger that was about to return all things to their original state.

"You are the daughter of the noble God King, the most beautiful woman in the world. No one except the great Father in Heaven is qualified to possess you, my child! Why resist?

Or... do you have fantasies about those tiny little idiots in the human world?

They have neither the tall, mighty and handsome figure of the King of Gods, nor the mighty power of thunder that can destroy everything.

You have the blood of the gods flowing in your body, and like me, you don't need to care about any prejudices of worldly etiquette.

Do you prefer the weak to the great?"

"You are wrong, Zeus - the one in front of you is not the daughter of Zeus, the king of gods, but the daughter of Yandareos, the king of Sparta, and his queen Leda.

I don't have a shameless God-King father...

Compared to the powerful God King, I would rather marry the weak human you mentioned, at least they won't have any ideas about their daughters. "At this time, he simply refused to acknowledge the name of his father.

And when Helena spoke like this.

Zeus’s rage burned fiercely——!!!

Ye could sense that it was a terrifying flame that was released that was powerful enough to ignite and destroy the universe.

But compared to the terrible pressure brought by Zeus at this moment, what shocked Ye's heart more was what the two people had just said in their conversation.

The daughter of Yandareos, the king of Sparta, or the biological daughter of Zeus? That means—

...Helen? ! !

This was the source of the Trojan War.

How could it be possible——! No, that's not right. If Helena was Helen, he should have been able to feel Helena's presence on the battlefield that day.

The atmosphere on the top of the city is different from Helena's.

Given the connection between him and Helena, it is impossible that they have no connection even though they are far apart.

On the other hand, the girl's attitude completely angered Zeus, and he asked: "Who?! Do you already have someone you like?

Was it Theseus, the hero from afar, who saw you dancing today in the temple of Artemis, or was it Pirithous?"

When Helena began to ignore Zeus and simply treated him as if he didn't exist, she was completely disappointed and didn't want to bother with Zeus anymore.

After Zeus struck another thunder that shook the heavens and the earth, he suddenly said coldly, "Very good! Hum, hum, daughter of Tyndareus, the king of Sparta? You love your adopted father more than your biological father.

But you forgot that everything you have is given by me.

The birth of your soul and body all comes from me.

I can give you everything, and I can take everything back. Helen, my dear daughter, I am tired of negotiating with you. I have given you the opportunity to choose, but you did not cherish it.

Now, in the name of Zeus, the king of gods, I will take back all the blessings I have ever given you, and return your flesh, blood, and soul to me.

I'll ask you one last time, Helen -

Destruction or rebirth.

Don't think of refusing. If you refuse again this time, I will kill your old and incompetent human father."

When Zeus's cold and heartless words fell, Helen's face suddenly turned pale.

"I choose...——" Finally, under the coercion of Zeus, she shed tears in humiliation. The princess, who was known as the most beautiful woman in the Greek world, suddenly showed an extremely moving smile and said firmly: "Destruction!"

"Great God Zeus! Don't even think about using any despicable means to get me. Since you want me to return everything that belongs to you, please drain my divine blood and destroy everything related to the god Zeus."

"I am the daughter of the king of men, not the daughter of the king of gods..."

When facing the girl who rejected him so cruelly in the end.

Zeus finally got completely angry——!

Even if he is the greatest Greek Alexandre Dumas, according to his personality, he will never let go of any beautiful woman.

He pursued the goddess of beauty, but was destroyed if he couldn't get her, so he gave her to his ugliest youngest son, also to make it easier for him to have an affair.

This was his second defeat, also against the most beautiful woman in the world.

Although the myth does not describe that Zeus had any thoughts about Helen.

But when the scene before his eyes happened in front of Ye, Ye did not feel strange at all...

After all, she was the most beautiful woman in Greece.

Given Zeus's nature of not even letting go of his daughter, the Queen of the Underworld, would he let her go just because Helen is his daughter?

To be honest, if Athena and Artemis didn't have their own special characteristics, Zeus would have taken action against them long ago.

Even if you think about it carefully, in mythology——

The heroes Theseus and Pirithous arrived here during their expedition to Sparta, and they took a fancy to Helen dancing in the Temple of Artemis. They broke into the temple that night and took Helen away.

This palace seems to be the temple of Artemis.

But looking at the situation now, the current events took place before Theseus and others took action.

But later the two heroes failed again, and Helen's brothers, the future Gemini gods Castor and Polydeuces, came to Athens and took Helen back.

At this time, Helen was not even an adult, probably about thirteen or fourteen years old. It was not until a few years later when she became an adult and became more and more charming that many heroes such as Odysseus proposed to her.

During this process, Pirithous, unable to get Helen, even turned his attention to Persephone, the Queen of the Underworld.

etc--

Ye's eyes suddenly widened and he thought of a very scary possibility.

Why did Pirithous choose Persephone as his substitute after failing to marry Helen?

If you are just looking for beautiful women, Greece is so big that there must be several famous beautiful princesses.

But she just happened to be thinking about Pluto's woman, who was extremely risky.

He coveted the Queen of the Underworld because he lost Helen, and it is hard not to wonder if there is something similar between Persephone and Helen.

Considering that both of them are daughters of Zeus, it seems understandable that their faces are very similar.

And then there was a story about Zeus turning into Hades and seducing Persephone into having sex.

Hiss~! Could it be that Zeus could not get what he wanted from Helen at that time, which led to the development of the deformed myth of him attacking the Queen of the Underworld in order to satisfy his desire?

When this amazing and bold idea flashed through Ye's mind.

At this moment, there was another surprising change in the scene, which attracted Ye's attention.

Zeus: "Good! Very good! Daughter of the King of Sparta! Since you deny the fact that you are the daughter of the King of Gods.

So--"

The next moment, Zeus suddenly struck down with a bolt of lightning.

Helen's flesh and blood disappeared in the thunder, leaving only a bit of her soul, which was swallowed by Zeus.

night:!!!

Helen, dead?! Wait, who is this Helen that the world is fighting for?

Chapter 151: What alternative aesthetics? Am I going to snatch people from Zeus?

The real daughter of the God-King is dead.

It seems that everything can be explained.

Why would Zeus, who didn't even spare his own daughter, spare the most beautiful woman in the world, Helen?

If he said that he couldn't bear to kill Helen because he had family affection for her and regarded her as a good daughter, just like Artemis, that would be even more ridiculous.

If he loved Helen, he would not let her become a victim of the biggest conspiracy in the myth of the Golden Apple.

Obviously, anyone can be used to seduce Paris.

Greece lacks everything except famous beauties.

But how did Zeus do it?

He completely ignored how Helen was later tricked by the goddess of beauty and suffered a tragic fate as she was used as a tool between two men, as if he didn't have such a daughter at all.

If the later Helen was just a fake that he made...

People only cherish genuine things and regard them as things of real value.

But have you ever seen anyone treat a fake as a treasure?

Just like the original works of Wang Xizhi and Li Bai, they are priceless, but you can buy dozens of copies for just a few dollars online.

A fake is always a fake, no matter how beautiful it is, it has no collection value.

If these conjectures are true,

In this story, the one who had the most tragic end and almost suffered an unprovoked disaster was Persephone, the Queen of the Underworld.

She completely became a substitute for Helen. She was stolen by the hero Pirithous and was dreamed of by Zeus. Both humans and gods wanted to possess her.

But it is only to satisfy alternative literature and release the animal desires that are no longer available.

After destroying the real Helen, Zeus' cruel voice continued to ring out: "I will let you know that your beauty and status, which you are so proud of, can be replaced by anyone if I want.

You will be imprisoned in my clone all day long, watching others enjoy everything that should belong to you instead of you!

Can your dear father on earth recognize that you are no longer yours?"

When Zeus uttered a cold mockery.

Zeus is the most humane god in Greek mythology, but he is also the god who shows the despicable side of human nature to the extreme. He is the most selfish god and the most cunning god.

He was able to devour his pregnant wife because of a prophecy.

The sage Prometheus, who had made great contributions in the fight for the throne of the king of gods, had to endure the pain of being chained on the Caucasus Mountains all day long, with his heart burned by the scorching sun and his liver eaten by eagles, because he offended him by making fire for mankind. He was unable to sleep all day, was exposed to wind and rain, and was treated as food for wild beasts.

Now, it seems not surprising that he killed the real Helen in a rage because he wanted to satisfy his animal desires and possess his daughter but was repeatedly rejected, and would rather choose destruction than accept his gift.

This is very much something that Alexandre Dumas would do.

And since it's Zeus, given his pettiness, revenge wouldn't be that easy.

Then——

Ye saw the meaning of the words coming out of Zeus' mouth.

He dressed Helena, another beautiful girl in the temple who was originally Helen's maid, as a princess and gave her a beautiful appearance with divine power, just like he had created Pandora, a masterpiece that brought disaster to mankind.

Zeus then changed the memories of everyone in Sparta, making them all see the newborn girl as Helen, the most beautiful princess in the kingdom.

Even the heroes Theseus and Pirithous, who were extremely obsessed with Helen, failed to notice anything unusual.

They didn't even realize that the princess with a completely different face was no longer the one who danced in the temple and made them fall in love at the same time.

Or in other words, in front of beautiful women, men are fickle and fickle, even if they can sense a slight sense of incongruity, but when they see the beautiful girl who is blessed by the almighty god Zeus and is more dazzling than the stars and the moon in the sky, and makes the brilliance of the stars pale in comparison...

At the age of thirteen or fourteen, she blossomed into the most pure and moving appearance.

That last feeling of disharmony was forgotten by Theseus and the others.

however--

When the two people who snatched Helen distributed it unevenly, they drew lots to decide who would be the final owner. The winner had to help the loser to grab another beauty.

When Pirithous lost.

Surprisingly, he was not like the heroes in other myths who became angry and finally drew their swords, nor did he hesitate or feel pain. Instead, he seemed to feel a sense of relief and accepted the ending calmly, and then changed his goal.

Finally, for some unknown reason, the target was set on Persephone, the queen of Hades!

In the firelight, the dream gradually began to disappear.

Until the end of time, that forgotten true soul seemed to be still in the cage created by Zeus, watching the hell on earth created for it by the king of gods.

The most beautiful woman in Greece, who used her own name but had forgotten her original identity, was equally miserable and was played around with by heroes and gods.

However, even after the end of the Trojan War, Zeus did not give up the idea of ​​continuing to use her, and seemed to be preparing to use her true spirit to make some more cruel plans.

The dream was shattered, and the following scenes seemed to be beyond the reach of the current power.
