After work, start to speedrun the other world-Chapter 572 - 229: Actually, There is Something to Do
"If we could surpass Ragnarok," the Delusional Demon revealed a heartfelt smile, speaking to God of War, "then it wouldn’t be necessary to grant people the right death."
The war god was briefly stunned, then scoffed, "You really use your goodwill in the most boring ways."
Keeping his smile, the Delusional Demon was unconcerned about the mockery; what others thought was irrelevant to him. He simply couldn’t bear to see people die without worth, so he wanted to help them fulfill the value of their lives.
"Discussing this has no meaning," the Density Demon said, raising his hand to rub his temples, his gaze landing on the delicate cheeks of the All-Knowing Saintess:
"Could you provide more specific details?"
"Anyone can choose to enter the dream and join the war to subdue the King of Ash," Eden explained, "but once you join, you cannot easily leave. You have to stay in the Simulation World for a span of ten years."
"Wait... how long must they stay?" the Density Demon asked with a subtle expression, and Eden, furrowing her brow, seemed puzzled by the inquiry:
"Is there a problem with that?"
"Ten years in there essentially means adding ten years to your life," the Density Demon spread his hands, "I think ten years is too short. How about a thousand years instead?"
Suddenly, he realized an interesting aspect; since the time flow in the Simulation World and the real world were not the same, and it had all the necessary information from the real world, then in essence, there was no difference between it and the real world.
With Ragnarok arriving in three years, if one could continually extend the Simulation World’s time, theoretically, the correct timing could be nearly infinite.
Thus, it could almost indefinitely postpone the problems of Ragnarok.
However,
Eden gave a negative response: "The purpose of the Simulation World is to find a way to defeat the King of Ash; we must attempt it several times in a short period, and I also need to adjust the Simulation World during the process to make it closer to reality."
Theoretically, she could create a proportional time difference between the Simulation World and reality, but that would be meaningless to her.
She created the Simulation World to establish if the new world model was reliable, hence the frequent restarts and experiments were necessary.
Moreover, except for a few powerful beings, the spirituality of most creatures would gradually decay when faced with prolonged duration, much like the souls in the high heavens or Hell losing the drive to continue living.
That would instead become a kind of alternative torture.
"Is that so." The Density Demon thought for a moment. If he had to wait that long to battle the King of Ash, that would be... a pity. For now, he should experience the power of the King of Ash as soon as possible.

Iris Flower Kingdom.
"A thousand years wouldn’t be so bad," Ashliya said softly. She only had a century to live and would age over time. If she could live for a thousand years in the Simulation World, that would undoubtedly be a huge gain.
However, the goal of the All-Knowing Saintess was to find a way to surpass Ragnarok, allowing the past heroes to fully demonstrate their talents.
Not to let people hide in the Simulation World to escape.
"Even if I gave you a thousand years, do you think you could live for a thousand years?" Xi Mu chuckled lightly, gazing at the serving Ashliya beside him:
"You might think about escaping the Simulation World as soon as possible."
That’s impossible.
Ashliya instinctively wanted to deny it, but she dared not contradict the King of Ash, fearing she might be burned to ash by a mere blaze.
She chose to change the subject.
"Lord Ahetar, is it really a good thing to let the All-Knowing Saintess run the simulation?"
"Why wouldn’t it be a good thing?" Xi Mu stood up, approached the Goddess of Salvation, and gently lifted her damp hair off her temples.
"Tonight you’ll also join the simulation, and I’ll also enter the dream to teach you the Method of saving the world."
"Yes," the Goddess of Salvation obediently nodded, but her expression wasn’t very joyful. As a god born with the authority of salvation, she naturally sensed something awry in her teacher.
Nevertheless, she subconsciously chose not to delve into it.
...
...
On an isolated island at sea.
Nameless monsters roamed the island, fighting and preying on each other, the air filled with the scent of blood and the roars of beasts.
The Monster Witch stood at the cliff edge, looking toward the girl sitting on a rock beside her with milk-white hair, her pretty face showing worry, as if troubled by something, making one want to embrace her to provide comfort.
"If you’re worried, go back and check on him," the Monster Witch spoke to Sleipnir, "Since that man has made it this far, it means he can intervene in the All-Knowing Saintess’s plans at any time."
"But is it okay to leave you alone here?" Sleipnir asked softly, to which the Monster Witch turned around and casually waved her hand:
"I plan to experiment with some ideas in the Simulation World; we can meet in the dream tonight."
Sleipnir’s expression changed from surprise to subtly complex: "Monster Witch, you won’t cause chaos in the simulated reality, will you?"
"After all, the simulated reality is for finding a way to defeat the King of Ash," the Monster Witch calmly answered, "so whatever we do is permitted. Other witches and demons will have the same idea."
Sleipnir fell silent for a moment, muttering softly: "I suddenly don’t want to join the simulated reality."
Having witnessed what witches and demons could concoct without considering consequences, this group of brilliantly unconventional beings could develop many unthinking methods, which ordinary people might find to be novel torments.
