Gospel of Blood-Chapter 567 : Writing History

Charlotte did not anticipate that her second embrace would cause such a huge commotion.

No…

In fact, the phenomenon resulting from this embrace was even more extensive than Charlotte had imagined.

This scene, akin to a massive explosion of life, almost covered the entire Dragonspine Mountain Range. Centered around Charlotte, an area within a radius of several hundred kilometers transformed into a “primeval forest.”

The various precious mineral deposits made Charlotte’s expression strange, her thoughts drifting to those historical events that had not yet occurred.

According to records, during the Blood Moon Era and the Yunette Empire Dynasty, the Dragonspine Mountains were renowned for being rich in minerals and magical materials across the entire continent.

This continued until the division of the Yunette Empire and the pollution of most of Eastern Yunette, which led to its gradual decline.

Even so, Charlotte knew that in later generations, the Eastern Yunette Blacklands remained famous for high-quality magic crystal mines, various magical woods, and magical beast products. The area of the highest quality was controlled by the dwarves in the Dragonspine Mountains…

Ah, this…

Could she have inadvertently created history again?

Charlotte couldn’t help but entertain this strange thought.

To be honest, by now, she wasn’t sure if she was “conforming” to history or “creating” history. It seemed like she was “creating” blank pages of history, and everything she did appeared to become part of history itself.

One thing she was certain of was that the phenomenon she caused this time was likely extremely extraordinary, even in the eyes of true Gods.

This was evident from the expressions of Artemis and Oceanus, who looked at her as if she were a monster.

What puzzled Charlotte was that despite the massive commotion she caused, her divine power wasn’t significantly depleted.

In fact, aside from the fatigue from bestowing bloodline power to Harald, she didn’t feel any extra consumption of power. It was merely that about half of the “origin mist” resulting from the fusion of blood divine power and holy power had vanished.

The amount of “origin mist” that disappeared, when converted into divine power, would definitely not be enough to transform such a vast area.

After all, the energy contained in the newly formed magic mineral deposits throughout the Dragonspine Mountains would likely far exceed that of the missing “origin mist.”

Charlotte’s doubt didn’t last long, as she soon received an answer from the Moon Goddess Artemis.

“This is a range-based ‘Genesis Evolution’, which is the true effect of ‘Origin Power.’ The Creator God used this power to transform the entire desolate world.”

“Of course, with the power you currently possess, it’s impossible to influence such a large area. If I’m correct, it must be that the remaining ‘Origin Power’ in the world resonated with your power, resulting in this outcome.”

Artemis pondered.

“Remaining ‘Origin Power’ in the world?”

Charlotte’s mind was stirred.

Artemis nodded and said.

“Yes, all life in the world comes from the Creator God. Although the Creator God has returned to eternal rest, as long as life continues and extraordinary power exists, so does Their power. After giving life to the entire world, They, in a sense, became the world itself.”

“Because of this, I have always opposed Helios’ attempts to tamper with Origin Power and covet the power of creation. After all, the power of creation has long merged with the world and grown stronger through its evolution. This is a height even God cannot reach. Trying to become the new Creator God is like a cup trying to contain the entire ocean… the result is only destruction.”

Artemis’ expression was serious.

Listening to her, Charlotte detected a subtle warning.

If she wasn’t mistaken, Artemis was advising her not to attempt to further master such power and avoid trying to become a “Creator God” like Helios.

But Charlotte felt helpless.

This phenomenon wasn’t something she intentionally caused, and as Artemis said, it wasn’t her own power.

The “origin mist” she inadvertently emitted acted more like a catalyst in this small-scale “Genesis Evolution.”

According to Artemis, it should have “activated” some extraordinary mechanism of the world’s evolution.

Essentially, it was still the power of the Creator God continuing to shape the world.

That said, considering Charlotte’s six years of solitary exploration across two different timelines, her future path to Godhood might indeed rely on this so-called “Origin Power.”

Charlotte couldn’t explain why, it was just a sense, like a myth’s “premonition.”

The changes in her divine flame during the recent embrace confirmed this “premonition.”

If she had a continuous supply of “origin mist”, her divine core might have formed then and there.

However, Charlotte felt she was missing something, especially after hearing Artemis’ explanation.

This made her feel inexplicably uneasy.

Charlotte believed that Artemis’ warning was well-intentioned. This central God of the elven race was as upright and selfless as history recorded. Although their time together was brief, Charlotte could fully sense what kind of God Artemis was.

Charlotte couldn’t help but recall “Lilith’s” expectations for her in the space-time rift. Contrary to Artemis’ grave warning, “Lilith” hoped she would become the new Creator God.

According to “Lilith”, only by becoming the new Creator God could she stand against “Helios” and prevent future destruction…

Artemis and Lilith both advised Charlotte, but their opinions were diametrically opposed.

However, although their views differed, Charlotte had a notion that both Artemis and Lilith might be right.

After all, Artemis hadn’t experienced the “future”, while Lilith had repeatedly gone through cycles of destruction.

They merely arrived at different conclusions due to their different starting points and times.

So why was she feeling uneasy?

Charlotte frowned, her thoughts wandering.

Actually, strictly speaking, it wasn’t unease.

To be precise, Charlotte felt she had overlooked something or perhaps hadn’t realized something.

“Oceanus, Lilith, the remnants of the Sun Temple have been eradicated, and I have achieved my goal for this trip. I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave now.”

Artemis said.

Upon hearing this, Charlotte nodded, suppressing her thoughts, and sincerely said.

“Artemis, thank you very much for your help. How can I repay you, and… how can I find you if I want to visit you?”

After a brief contemplation, Artemis’ hand gleamed, and a piece of crystal-clear green leaf appeared. She flicked it gently, and the leaf fell into Charlotte’s hand.

“This is a leaf of the World Tree, imbued with my essence. If you wish to find me, bring it to Luna Island.”

“Of course, I won’t be staying on Luna Island for the next year. The Sun Temple matters have caught my attention, and Helios’ appearance was beyond my expectations. I need to return to the Western Continent. If you want to visit, please wait for my return.”

“As for gratitude… actually, I should thank you. After all, the followers of the Sun were also my target.”

Charlotte’s mind stirred.

“The Western Continent? Artemis, may I accompany you? There are some matters on the Western Continent that concern me as well.”

After a brief hesitation, Artemis shook her head.

“I’m afraid not. Although the pollution on the Western Continent is diminishing, it will take another thousand or two thousand years to weaken completely.”

“I can set foot there because my body is a branch of the World Tree, which evolved from the Creator God’s remains and can resist the pollution to some extent. But you… probably can’t.”

“Besides, you possess ‘Origin Power’, and all ‘Origin Powers’ are drawn to each other. To the pollution there, your ‘Origin Power’ is like a beacon in the dark, attracting everything.”

“You can indeed purify the ‘pollution’ to some extent, but the ‘pollution’ can also corrode you. When the ‘origin pollution’ becomes strong enough, you will be the one devoured.”

Seeing Artemis’ solemn expression, Charlotte felt a bit disappointed.

However, this response was not beyond her expectations. Both “Lilith” and “Rowena’s Diary” had warned her not to venture into the Western Continent until she was strong enough.

Seeing Charlotte’s somewhat disappointed expression, Artemis added.

“Don’t be too disappointed. Although I can’t take you along, I can tell you what I see when I return.”

“Lilith, you are the inheritor of ‘Origin Power’, and I am the purifier of ‘Origin Malice.’ We have a common enemy and are natural allies.”

“You are the first person I’ve seen who can resist the temptation of ‘Origin Power’ to ascend to Godhood by taking shortcuts. Just for that, you have earned my respect and recognition.”

“We will surely meet and cooperate more in the future. I look forward to the day you truly ascend to Godhood.”

Wait…

Resist the temptation of ‘Origin Power’ to ascend to Godhood by taking shortcuts?

Charlotte was taken aback.

Recalling everything she felt during the embrace, she suddenly understood what she had overlooked.
