Tome of Blood

Become a true "savior"?

Charlotte was stunned for a moment, and soon realized that this was the two people who wanted to ask her to confirm the existence of the "Savior" and fill in the last loophole in Lilith and Harald's fictional gods.

However, are the two of them too arrogant?

"Lilith, Harald, if you ask me to be the real 'savior', aren't you worried that I will turn the Free Federation into a tool to satisfy selfish desires like other gods?"

Charlotte asked.

After listening to her words, Lilith shook her head and said:

"If it were other gods, we would definitely not make such an invitation, but you, teacher, are different."

"We don't see any interest in preaching faith in you, teacher. You don't seem to be very interested in cultivating power like other gods."

"You are a god. If you really wanted to, you would have had the opportunity to control the entire tribe when you were in the Beishan Tribe, but you did not do that."

"You taught us the original extraordinary knowledge, and you hoped that we could walk our own path. You don't treat mortals as your vassals and possessions like other gods..."

"If it were you, we would like you to be the true 'savior' of the Free Federation."

"No, to be more precise, from the day we invented gods, deep in our hearts, we have been vaguely looking forward to this day..."

Lilith spoke sincerely.

She and Harald looked at Charlotte with anticipation written on their faces.

Facing the two people's admiring gazes, Charlotte felt slightly ashamed.

It can only be said that the halo she left behind when the two of them were young was too strong, and the filter of their affection for her is still ridiculously thick even now.

The two of them were right, Charlotte had no interest in cultivating power in this era.

But the reason is not that she has no desire, but that she knew from the beginning that she did not belong to this era and that she might leave at any time.

To be honest, Charlotte doesn't want to leave too many traces of herself in this era.

She is still not sure whether she has traveled to the past. If she leaves too many traces, she is worried that it will affect herself after returning.

But at the same time, looking at the two people who admired her very much, Charlotte felt that since she had "traveled" to this era, she should do something.

There is no time travel for no reason, everything has a cause and effect.

It would be fine if her "time travel" was just an illusory dream.

But if she really entered the "gap of history", she felt that she should take action.

Not to mention anything else, even if it was to confirm whether her "time travel" was really going back to the past, Charlotte felt it was worth taking action.

And if you follow your heart and speak from a less rational perspective...

I've come here, but if I don't really do something, I'd be so sorry for my "second time travel"!

Of course, Charlotte is rational.

Even if you want to do something, you must protect yourself and separate yourself from future generations as much as possible.

Even if you want to influence history, even if you want to change the past, you must change it in a completely new role, and you cannot connect yourself in this era with yourself in future generations.

This is a reasonable self-protection under the premise of not understanding the "travel" mechanism and the paradox of time and space.

As for whether to agree to Lilith and Harald's invitation...

After weighing the pros and cons, Charlotte felt like it was okay.

Becoming a "savior" and getting involved in the disputes between gods will help her learn more about this era and collect various intelligence.

Becoming a "savior" and making good friends with Lilith and Harald will also help her further determine their identities and figure out the secrets of the Vampire Clan and the Holy Royal Court.

Charlotte believed that Lilith and Harald must be closely related to the True Ancestor of Blood and the God of Creation.

Not to mention anything else, just looking at the special abilities obtained by the two people, it is inseparable from the two.

Among them, the power of "swallowing" is the power possessed by the True Ancestor, regardless of the ability of other divine arts. It is very similar to the divine spell suppression of believers of other gods possessed by the Holy Royal Court, and it is also similar to the divine spell counterattack of the Blood Sacred Scripture. There are different approaches but the same effect.

In addition, Charlotte also needs a stable environment to find a way back to the afterlife.

When Charlotte returned for the first time, she reconnected with the Blood Scripture after successfully breaking through.

Referring to the last "travel", Charlotte doubted that she would still need to repeat the process this time.

However, considering that she is already a demigod who has ignited the divine fire, her "breakthrough" this time is probably no longer an improvement in her realm, but needs to meet other conditions.

The conditions this time are likely to be related to the myth. If she becomes the "savior", Charlotte will also have more ways and means to test.

At the same time, becoming a "savior" can also allow Charlotte to improve her strength in this era.

In this way, when she returns to the era of later generations, she will have stronger power and greater confidence after the arrival of Holy Advent.

Charlotte's mind turned and she quickly made a decision:

"Lilith, Harald, I can be the 'savior' of the Free City and provide shelter as a god."

Lilith and Harald's eyes lit up.

"but……"

Charlotte changed the subject:

"I can't keep my holy emblem. Even the current 'Savior' holy emblem must be banned. The 'Savior'... cannot possess the holy emblem."

After hearing Charlotte's words, Lilith and Harald were stunned:

"Ban...the Holy Emblem?"

"Teacher, the Holy Emblem is the bridge between gods and mortals. If there is no Holy Emblem, how can mortals pray to the gods?"

Harald couldn't help but ask.

Charlotte sighed and said:

"Because I'm not trying to make believers."

"I don't want to hide it from you. I must admit that my situation is a bit special. I can't stay awake like other gods. Every once in a while, I will fall into a deep sleep, and even I can't be sure how long I will sleep."

"The last time we left without saying goodbye was the same reason..."

"Even if I leave the holy symbol behind, I will not be able to receive prayers from believers when I fall into a deep sleep."

"Believers' inability to communicate with gods for a long time will inevitably lead to shaken belief and confusion. The existence of the 'Savior' is to increase cohesion and fight against other gods. If the 'Savior' loses contact for a long time, it will lose its effect."

"So... you might as well change your thinking from the beginning."

"The 'Savior' still exists, but the Savior does not need faith, so the 'Savior' does not need the Holy Emblem."

"In this case, even if one day I fall asleep again, you will still be able to maintain the belief in the 'Savior' of the Free City."

"If you really want to invite me to be your 'savior,' you need to meet the above conditions."

This is a lie.

The real reason is that Charlotte does not want to leave her mark in this era, thereby putting herself in danger for future generations.

Although she is not entirely sure whether this is a true time travel and whether it will really change history, it is always right to be cautious.

She was even considering whether to change her image.

No……

If she really wants to become a "savior", her current image must change, at least not to be consistent with "Charlotte".

After listening to Charlotte's words, Lilith and the two were thoughtful.

"Teacher, we understand your concerns. In our opinion, no god is more suitable to be the protector of the Free City than you. Although it is regrettable, if you decide not to use the Holy Emblem, we are also willing to comply with your wishes. .”

Lilith said.

Charlotte nodded slightly.

She smiled and said:

"Then...I will accept your invitation."

After saying that, she quietly activated the divine power of blood.

The next moment, under the surprised gazes of the two people, her figure suddenly changed, her height slowly increased, her blond hair turned into silver, and her blue eyes turned into golden red.

She once again transformed into something close to what she looked like when the True Ancestor was liberated, and it was also the posture she showed when she fought against the God of Hatred and Aberration a few days ago.

Charlotte thought simply. Since this posture has been seen by the God of Hatred and Distortion, she might as well continue to act in this posture in this era.

In this way, the image of "Charlotte" will not leave traces in this era. What will leave traces is, at most, the posture after the "Liberation of the True Ancestor".

"Don't be surprised. The posture you see is the posture after the release of my divine power. From now on... it will also be the posture of the 'savior'."

Charlotte explained to the two.

Lilith looked at Charlotte's rapidly growing proud breasts, then silently stretched out her hand to touch the flat steel plate on her upper body, and was silent again.

"Cough, Lilith..."

Seeing the disappointed expression of the other party, Harald coughed lightly and was about to offer comfort, but was interrupted by Lilith:

"I know, I'm only 20 years old, I still have room to grow."

Lilith was smiling, but there seemed to be a circle of low-pressure dark clouds behind her.

Harald: ...

Charlotte: ...

"Okay, let's change the topic. I agree to your invitation. In addition to being the 'savior', do you need any other help?"

Seeing Lilith's increasingly depressed expression, Charlotte changed the subject.

After finishing speaking, she smiled slightly and looked at the two of them:

"You are all my students. If you have any difficulties, you can speak freely."

After listening to Charlotte's words, Lilith's attention was immediately attracted.

They looked at each other, hesitated slightly, and said to Charlotte:

"Teacher Cain, actually... we actually had a request, but... it may no longer be possible."

"Oh? What request? Tell me."

Charlotte was a little curious.

Lilith thought for a while and said:

"Teacher, although we have extraordinary knowledge and can gradually develop extraordinary power as long as we have enough growth time, there are still too few seeds with extraordinary talents in the city-state."

"Not everyone can awaken to extraordinary power, and not everyone can walk the extraordinary path on their own."

"But... believers of the gods are excluded."

"Gods can bestow extraordinary seeds to believers through the connection of divine grace, and believers can gain extraordinary power with the help of gods. So... we originally wanted to ask you to regularly select suitable candidates to give everyone extraordinary seeds and help everyone. On the path of the extraordinary..."

Saying that, Lilith smiled wryly again:

"However, since you need to sleep from time to time, and you don't intend to reveal the Holy Emblem or preach your faith, I'm afraid you can't do these things."

I have been on a business trip for a month, so the daily updates may be a little less than usual. I will write as much as I can.
