Tome of Blood

Chapter 646-145- "Harald"

The surging divine power transformed into a dreamy glow, and under the unstoppable force, the ancient elven ruins were completely transformed into a dead place.

Only the two gods surrounded by platinum and scarlet light were confronting each other in the storm of divine power.

The crimson blood power circulated around Charlotte's body. Her eyes, which had long since turned red gold, reflected the figure of the platinum-colored god, and her beautiful face was full of complexity.

Charlotte had imagined many scenes of herself and Harald meeting again.

But she never expected that it would unfold in the way it is now.

Although she had already had some vague guesses about the identity of "Helios, the God of the Sun", when everything was truly revealed, her heart couldn't help but be shocked.

The sun god "Helios" who has always been at odds with her... is actually "Harald"!
Did "Helios, the God of the Sun" devour and steal the "identity" of "Lord God Harald"?
Do not……

Appearance can be disguised and deceived, but the soul cannot.

Divine power can be stolen, but bloodline cannot.

At the moment the sun mask was shattered, the scarlet sea of ​​stars in Charlotte's consciousness that represented many blood descendants also began to vibrate almost at the same time. One of the only two remaining "suns" representing the "demigod blood descendants" burst into dazzling brilliance and was deeply connected with the platinum-colored god in front of him.

Charlotte would never misjudge this feeling, because it would always be like this whenever a vampire had a bloodline resonance with her.

And now, the one who resonates with her blood is none other than the "Sun God Helios" in front of her!
Or to be more precise, it is "Harald" who has taken off his mask and no longer hides the fluctuations of his soul and the origin of his blood!
This was also what shocked and even confused Charlotte.

She had guessed that Harald's status was taken away by Helios, and she had also guessed that the "Will of Creation" wanted to revive from "Harald".

But whether it is seizing the status or reviving the ancient god, it will inevitably destroy her blood connection with "Harald" - that was the blood oath she signed when she saved Harald, a double contract established in the soul dimension and the blood dimension.

The Harald in front of her was exactly the same as she remembered, from his spiritual aura to the fluctuations in his blood. Charlotte could even feel her own blood suppression on him - that meant that the blood oath between the two still existed.

As long as she wanted, she could use the power of her bloodline at any time to suppress the opponent's power by suppressing the "sun" representing the opponent in the crimson sea of ​​stars!
In other words, the god in front of him had not had his status taken away by Helios at all. He was Himself, He was Harald!
But...why was Harald looking at her with such hatred?
And...why did he hide his identity and call himself Helios, the god of the sun?
No, that's not just a self-proclaimed title.

Charlotte recalled the last time she traveled through history and drove "Helios" out of the war between gods in that era.

"Helios, the sun god," chased her to that era, but was eventually defeated by the joint efforts of her, the moon goddess Artemis, and the sea god Oceanus.

Neither Oceanus nor Artemis, the sister of the sun god, questioned his identity as "Helios".

There was no way a god could mistake the identity of another god, especially when one of them was Helios’ sister.

This inevitably led Charlotte to come up with another absurd and bold guess -

Could it be that... Harald himself is actually Helios, the god of the sun? !
The sun god Helios was not suppressed in the broken western continent as described in the ancient elven books, but was reborn in the world of Miriam by some means similar to reincarnation?
And... he was reborn as the little boy she knew who followed Lilith, Harald, who recognized her as his teacher?

Charlotte's divine fire burned fiercely, and her divine nature operated at high speed, rapidly calculating and inferring everything at the moment, and soon pointed to a certain possibility.

It's not impossible.

Especially Charlotte herself has always been confused about one thing——

The divine power is another manifestation of the primordial power, and Harald gained control of the divine power not after he became a god, nor after he met Charlotte, but long before Charlotte traveled through time and space, he already had the power of the divine power.

It is no coincidence that an ordinary child from an ordinary tribe can master controllable primordial power.

In a world where gods exist, behind all coincidences there is inevitability, and behind all miracles... there is the shadow of gods.

This also made Charlotte couldn't help but have another idea.

Was it also some kind of "coincidence" that she happened to meet Harald and Lilith after traveling through history?

Of course, all of the above are speculations made by Charlotte after she was shocked and combined with various doubts in the past.

These speculations are not perfect, and there are even some things that are difficult to explain.

For example, if Helios and Harald were the same person, then according to the principle of "co-substitution" of Charlotte's time travel, He should have replaced "Harald" just like Charlotte replaced "Lilith".

But in fact, "Helios" and "Harald" appeared in the same time and space, and Artemis did not think that Harald who followed Charlotte was the "reincarnation" of her brother Helios.

Charlotte's thoughts raced.

However, her thoughts were quickly interrupted by Harald's almost final words:

"Long time no see, my dear teacher. You seem to be much calmer than I expected. Or...did you actually expect this moment today?"

It was a tone filled with sarcasm and ridicule, and even carried a hint of a certain detachment and arrogance that seemed to be ingrained in the bones.

The tone was not like Harald's, but rather superior, just like "Helios".

Besides this, he seemed to be suppressing a certain vigilance and fear. The golden pupils he looked at Charlotte showed not only hostility but also caution.

Charlotte could roughly guess what the other party was afraid of.

She exhaled lightly, and her divine power connected to the crimson sea of ​​stars. Her red-gold eyes were stained with a deep scarlet:

"Harald, you have changed."

The divine power of blood was running faintly, and the blood suppression was quietly stimulated.

At this moment, Charlotte's voice also became majestic and ethereal. It was just a sigh, but it seemed to carry some kind of strange power, majesty, solemnity, and should not be offended lightly, just like a question from a venerable to his followers.

This is Charlotte triggering the blood suppression of the True Ancestor.

The light on "Harald" dimmed almost visibly.

And Charlotte vaguely felt that she seemed to be connected with some kind of familiar will.

That seemed to be the "Harald" on the opposite side, but it didn't seem to be "Harald".

"Harald's" expression changed slightly, but soon returned to normal, and the divine power in his body was instantly activated - it was the sacred power that Charlotte was very familiar with, but on top of that, it was more blazing like the sun's rays.

The divine power expelled the blood suppression, and Charlotte's perception was almost instantly cut off, and "Harald's" temperament changed almost instantly, as if he had become another person.

"I just found my true self. Thanks to you, all my plans have been severely affected... I have wasted thousands of years."

He said coldly.

true self?
Dual personality?

Or...primary pollution?
夏洛特心中一动。

She was pretty sure she had just communicated something through the blood link.

Not other souls, not other consciousnesses, but some suppressed hidden will that is homologous to the present "Harald".

Just like the other side of a mirror, although that moment was short, Charlotte keenly felt the change in Harald's aura.

This discovery made Charlotte's heart move:
The "Harald" in front of her seemed to be in an unstable state. Perhaps... she could use the connection of the blood contract and the impact of the power of blood to find back the "Harald" she was familiar with!

"I need an opportunity, an opportunity to instantly inject a huge amount of blood power into his soul. If it is really personality contamination, perhaps I can awaken the personality of Harald in his soul!"

The summer solstice road.

This idea is risky and difficult.

There was no other reason, because the "Harald" in front of her was no weaker than her.

No.

He has devoured many subordinate gods of the Holy Royal Court. His true power can only be stronger than Charlotte!

Not only that, Charlotte could feel that the other party was stripping away the blood power from her body, and her connection with the other party was rapidly weakening...

She must act as soon as possible, before the blood connection is severed, and...she must hit the target with one blow!
Thinking of this, Charlotte waved her divine power, and the brilliance of the Moon Dream Heart burst out further, enveloping "Harald" again!
However, at this moment, the artifact Moon Dream Heart suddenly flickered and burst out with an unfamiliar silver divine power.

In just a moment, the control of Moon Dream Heart was instantly taken away, and at the same time, a silver moon-like divine power appeared in the hand of "Harald".

Charlotte's eyes narrowed slightly.

That is the godhood of Artemis, the moon goddess!
The Moon God's godhead appeared, and the control over the Moon Dream Heart was instantly taken away, and the light that originally enveloped "Harald" was instantly transferred to Charlotte.

In just a moment, Charlotte felt that most of her strength was suppressed, and the surrounding space and time were also blocked and confined.

Harald had a blank expression on his face.

He was holding the Moon Godhead in his hand, looking down at Charlotte with a mocking tone:
"Yong Ye, do you really think that I can't interrupt your perception of the bloodline's power?"

"I have been waiting for you here for a long time. It's not that you came to find me, but that I needed you to come."

"I have said it many times. Even if you can travel through time and space to change history, you cannot influence the predetermined outcome."

"Just like my Sun King Court, even if you come back again, even if you twist it, twist me, it still belongs to me, and I will return in the end."

"This is an outcome that has already happened, and it is also a destined outcome."

"And you, my dear 'teacher', will eventually become my last piece of the puzzle, helping me to step on the power of all myths and ascend to the true highest!"

As he finished speaking, powerful divine power erupted from Harald's body, and Charlotte felt that her control over the Holy Royal Court's faith network was also directly interrupted by some irresistible force.
