Blood Holy Scripture: True Ancestor Charlotte de Castel-Chapter 936 - 8: The Primordial’s Temptation

"Teacher!"

In the Divine Hall, the two Elf Gods summoned by Charlotte paid their respects respectfully.

"Artemis, Helios, how is your power restoration coming along recently?"

Charlotte asked gently.

Artemis replied respectfully:

"Very smoothly, everyone in the Elder Council has been very good to us, doing their utmost to fulfill any of our requests. I think, at most, in another ten years, I should be able to restore to my past peak level."

"Very good!"

Charlotte was quite pleased.

But Helios appeared somewhat hesitant.

He sighed lightly and answered:

"Teacher, my power should be fully restored in another three years at most, but..."

Helios hesitated for a moment, then continued:

"Lately, there's always been a mysterious voice in my mind... telling me a lot of forbidden knowledge..."

"A mysterious voice? Primordial?"

Charlotte's gaze flickered slightly.

Helios looked a bit confused, sometimes struggling, sometimes fearful, ultimately turning into a kind of inexplicable terror:

"I... don't know."

"It seems to guide my thoughts as well. Teacher, if it weren't for you calling me to ask about this, if it weren't for being in your Divine Hall, I... I'm afraid I wouldn't have even thought of reporting this to you until now!"

Could it be so? 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Charlotte's gaze slightly narrowed.

Looking at the solar-like divine radiance on Helios, she contemplated briefly, having formed a hypothesis in her mind.

The voice influencing Helios could only be one possible existence.

It must be Primordial.

Unlike Artemis, Helios was once the target chosen by the Primordial God in his past life, and he was even devoured and fused by it at the end. His binding with Primordial far exceeds other myths.

Although his Divine Soul was reconstructed by Charlotte in this life, he remains deeply connected to Primordial, even holding a soul origin that was originally a part of Primordial.

This connection is indelible, and having such a link means that Primordial's influence on him is just a matter of time.

Unless one day, Primordial completely falls.

Fortunately, Charlotte now shares the same position with Primordial.

Though her power isn't yet on par with it, she anticipated Helios's current predicament.

With that understanding, she had a thought.

"Helios, step forward."

She said.

Helios stepped forward anxiously, and Charlotte extended her hand, imprinting a beam of golden-red light on his forehead.

In an instant, Helios sensed that his Divine Soul origin was enveloped by a wisp of crimson-gold brilliance. Though he could still hear the bewitching voice of Primordial from the void, it could no longer influence his mind.

"This is a trace of my origin power, capable of protecting your Divine Soul origin from being polluted or devoured by the other party."

Charlotte said.

Helios was overjoyed:

"Thank you for your grace, Teacher!"

"Don't thank me just yet."

Charlotte waved her hand, then continued:

"My power can give you temporary protection, but it can't completely sever your tie with Primordial."

"You were originally an embodiment of Primordial's power. To completely break free from Primordial's cage, Primordial itself must be utterly destroyed."

Helios looked worried:

"Given that, what should I... do?"

Charlotte smiled and said:

"Don't worry, I've considered this."

"Actually, it's also an opportunity, Helios. Do you still remember my plan?"

Helios nodded and answered respectfully:

"Of course I remember, hidden within history, gradually manipulating history, eventually replacing it and guiding everything towards a new history that we can control!"

Charlotte nodded slightly, then said:

"Since that's the case, you should also remember the Elf history I told you about from the past life, right?"

Helios's expression turned complex:

"Of course I remember, the past me... was enticed by Primordial, wanting to ascend to the supreme. In the end, it led to the descent of Primordial's power, causing the West Continent's destruction, leading to the decline of the Elf Clan..."

"And because of me, Primordial acquired a vessel to walk the world, ultimately succeeding in invading the whole world with its power."

Charlotte nodded:

"You are right, the destruction of the West Continent was a crucial node, no, more precisely, it was the God War between the Elf Gods and the Primordial-possessed 'you' that was the most pivotal point in history."

"Primordial won, causing Elven civilization to topple and the Old Gods to rise again."

"However, now you are protected by my origin power, Primordial... can no longer devour your Divine Soul."

Helios's heart stirred:

"Teacher, you mean... to intervene in this 'historical node'?"

Charlotte recalled the shattered temporal scroll in her mind, gave a light chuckle, and said:

"The history that has happened cannot be changed. If we don't want to completely awaken Primordial, history must happen again."

"But history is history, and truth is truth. The initiative to write the truth has long been handed over to 'me' by those 'incarnations' in countless 'reincarnations'..."

"Since Primordial wants to revive using your body, isn't it also an opportunity for us to strike a heavy blow to it?"

Saying this, Charlotte's expression turned serious, and flashes of light glimmered in her crimson-gold eyes:

"Helios..."

"I command you to 'accept' Primordial's enticement!"

...

The Elf Era 1347.

Less than ten years after Artemis and Helios's God Ascension, the last Old God resisting in the Eastern Continent also surrendered under the siege of the Elf Gods.

All the known Old Gods of Mireya, including twenty-eight demigods and eight true gods, pledged allegiance to the Elf Pantheon.

Under the orders of the Elf Gods, they removed their Divine Statues and instead worshiped the Creator God revered by the Elves.

However, many Old Gods of Mireya did not agree with the term "Creation Goddess," as they believed the Creator God was genderless, the primordial progenitor of all things, and should be respected as the "Primordial God."

Of course, this naturally faced strong opposition from the Elf Gods. Although in the end, the Old Gods consented to worship the Creator God under pressure from the Elf Gods, privately, many chosen in myths opted not for the "Creation Goddess" but still for the "Primordial God."

Charlotte, high above, was well aware of all these developments and changes.

Yet she did not stop them.

The Elves had already won; Primordial was dormant, not dead. If suppressed too much at this moment, it might accelerate its awakening.

The current level is actually sufficient.

And Charlotte's faith, with many Old Gods switching allegiance, quietly spread rapidly across the Mireya Continent.

Charlotte had a feeling.

She could now choose suitable intelligent life on the Mireya Continent and likewise bestow power, making them Favored like the Elves.

However, she did not act rashly.

The place of Primordial's descent back then was precisely the Mireya Continent, and its control over it was much stronger than over the West Continent.

Relying on the Elf Clan to indirectly spread faith was fine, but if she were to act, it might directly awaken the other party.

Even if she truly wanted to act, she must further weaken the other party's power, force it into deeper slumber, or directly banish or even slay it!

Thinking of this, Charlotte looked towards the West Continent.

After some years, the number of Primordial believers had grown more on the West Continent.

Hidden Primordial Temples were erected all over the continent; even some Elven myths began to be enticed by Primordial.

And at this moment, within the Central Holy Hall of the Elf Holy City, a fierce argument was erupting among the Elf Gods...
