Charlotte didn't expect this First Embrace to cause such a commotion.

No...

In fact, the phenomena caused by this First Embrace were even more widespread than Charlotte imagined.

This peculiar sight, akin to an explosion of all things, covered almost the entire Dragon Ridge Mountain Range, transforming the area within hundreds of kilometers, centered around Charlotte, into "Primitive Forest."

The various exposed ore deposits made Charlotte's expression strange, and her thoughts involuntarily drifted to the future, to histories yet to occur.

According to records, during the Bloodline Dynasty era and the Yonette Empire era, the Dragon Ridge Mountain Range was a famous mining area and source of magical materials on the entire continent. It wasn't until the fragmentation of the Yonette Empire, when most of Eastern Yonette was polluted, that it gradually declined.

Even so, as Charlotte knew, the Eastern Yonette Black Land remained renowned in after eras for its high-quality magic crystal ore, various magical woods, and demon beast products, with the highest quality region being under the Dwarfs' control in the Dragon Ridge Mountain Range...

Ah, this...

Did she unknowingly create history again?

Charlotte couldn't help but have this peculiar thought.

To be honest, at this point, whether she is "following" history or she is "creating" history, even she is uncertain.

She seemed to be "creating" the emptiness of history, and everything she did appeared to have become history itself.

However, there is one thing she knows for sure: the phenomena she caused this time, even for a True God, would likely be incredibly absurd. This was evident from the monster-like expressions of Artemis and Oceanus.

What puzzled Charlotte was that although she caused such a large commotion, her Divine Power hadn't been excessively consumed.

In fact, apart from the fatigue from granting Haral the Bloodline power, she didn't feel any extra energy depletion. It was merely that the fusion of Blood Divine Power and Holy Power created "Primordial Fog," which decreased by nearly half.

And the half that was reduced as "Primordial Fog," when converted to energy, is absolutely insufficient to change such a vast area.

After all, the energy contained merely in the various magic mineral deposits throughout the entire Dragon Ridge Mountain Range probably exceeds the vanished "Primordial Fog."

Charlotte didn't dwell on this question for long. Eventually, she got answers from Moon God Artemis.

"This is a range-based 'Creation Evolution,' considered as the true function of 'Primordial Power.' The Creator God initially used this power to change the entire desolate world."

"Of course, with the power you're currently harnessing, it would likely be impossible to impact such a large area. If my guess is correct, it must be the leftover 'Primordial Power' in the world resonating with your power, ultimately leading to this result."

Artemis pondered.

"Leftover Primordial Power in the world?"

Charlotte's heart was stirred.

Artemis nodded and said:

"Yes, the world's vitality all comes from the Creator God. Although the Creator God has passed into Eternal Sleep, as long as the world's vitality remains, and the Extraordinary Power still exists, His power remains. After He granted vitality to the whole world, in a sense, He became the world itself."

At this point, Artemis sighed lightly:

"It's exactly because of this that I have always been against Helios meddling with Primordial Power, coveting the power of Creation, because... Creation's power has long since merged with the entire world and has grown more powerful throughout the world's evolution, reaching heights where even deities cannot attain. To become a new Creator God would be like a cup trying to contain the entire ocean... ultimately resulting only in destruction."

Artemis looked solemn.

Listening to her implicit words, Charlotte heard the underlying hint.

If she guessed correctly, this was Artemis reminding her not to attempt further mastery of such power, attempting to become the "Creator God" like Helios.

But Charlotte felt quite helpless.

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

The "Primordial Fog" she released unintentionally acted more like a catalyst in this small-scale "Creation Evolution," as per Artemis's explanation, it should have "activated" some mechanism of the world's extraordinary evolution.

In essence, the world-changing power of the Creator God continues to play a role.

But that said, after Charlotte crossed into the otherworldly realm, spanning two timespaces over six years of solitary exploration, her future path to godhood... if anything goes wrong, it would likely depend on this so-called "Creation Power."

Charlotte couldn't say why; it's just a certain intuition she sensed like the "premonition" in myths.

And the changes in the Divine Fire during her First Embrace also verified this "premonition." If there were continuous "Primordial Fog," her Divine Position might condense on the spot.

However, Charlotte always felt she seems to have missed something, especially after hearing Artemis's "lesson."

This made her inexplicably uneasy.

Charlotte believed that Artemis's warning was well-intentioned. The Main God of the Elf Clan was as upright and selfless as recorded in history. Although they had not interacted for long, Charlotte could completely feel what kind of deity the other party truly was.

Charlotte couldn't help but think of Lilith's expectations for her in the time-space rift. Contrary to Artemis's alertness, Lilith hoped she would become the Creator God.

In Lilith's words, only if she becomes the new Creator God can she oppose Helios and avoid future destruction...

Both Artemis and Lilith were "advising" Charlotte, but their opinions were completely opposite.

But even though they were completely opposite, Charlotte had a thought that perhaps both Artemis and Lilith were right.

After all, Artemis hadn't experienced the "future," whereas Lilith had reincarnated multiple times in destruction.

They just had different starting points and were in different time spaces, which led to different answers.

So, why did she feel somewhat uneasy?

Charlotte frowned slightly, her thoughts drifting.

Actually, strictly speaking, it couldn't be called unease.

To be precise, Charlotte always felt like she was overlooking something or, rather, not realizing something.

"Your Majesty Oceanus, Your Majesty Lilith, the remnants of the Sun Divine Palace have been eliminated, and my purpose for this trip has been achieved. I have other matters to attend to, so I will take my leave now."

Artemis spoke.

Upon hearing his words, Charlotte nodded, suppressing her inner thoughts, and sincerely said:

"Your Majesty Artemis, thank you very much for your help. I wonder how I should thank you, and furthermore... if I wish to visit you again, how should I find you?"

Artemis pondered for a moment, then a flash of light appeared in her hand, producing a crystal-clear green leaf. With a gentle flick, the leaf fell into Charlotte's hand:

"This is a leaf from the World Tree, imprinted with my aura. If you wish to find me, take it to Moon God Island."

"Of course, in the coming year, I probably won't be staying on Moon God Island. The matters of the Sun Divine Palace concern me somewhat, and Helios's appearance exceeded my expectations. I need to return to the West Continent for a while. If you wish to visit, please wait for my return."

"As for thanks... In fact, I think it should be me who thanks you. After all, the likes of Sun believers were also my targets."

Charlotte felt a stir in her heart:

"The West Continent? Your Majesty Artemis, may I accompany you? There are some things about the West Continent I am also concerned with."

Artemis hesitated slightly before shaking her head:

"I'm afraid... no. Although the pollution in the West Continent is weakening, it would still take another one or two thousand years to completely lessen it."

"I can tread there because my body is transformed from the branches of the World Tree, which is the evolved remains of the Creator God's body, capable of countering the pollution to a certain extent. But you... I'm afraid not."

"Not to mention, you also hold the 'Primordial Power.' All 'Primordial Powers' yearn for one another. Regarding the pollution there, your 'Primordial Power' is like a bright fire in darkness, attracting everything."

"You can indeed purify the 'pollution' to some extent, but likewise, the 'pollution' can also erode you. When the 'Primordial Pollution' becomes strong enough, it will be you who gets devoured and assimilated."

Seeing Artemis's solemn demeanor, Charlotte felt a bit of regret in her heart.

But this answer did not exceed her expectations. After all, both Lilith and the Royena Diary had warned her not to rashly enter the West Continent before becoming strong enough.

Seeing Charlotte's slightly disappointed expression, Artemis added:

"Don't be too disappointed. Although I can't take you with me, once I return, I can share with you what I've seen and heard."

"Your Majesty Lilith, you are the inheritor of the 'Primordial Power,' while I am the Cleaner of 'Primordial Evil.' We have a common enemy, making us natural allies."

"You are the first I've seen who, under the temptation of 'Creation Power,' still refuses to take a shortcut to God Ascension. Just for that, you deserve my respect and recognition."

"We should have more opportunities to meet and cooperate in the future. I look forward to the day you truly ascend the Divine Throne."

Wait a minute...

Under the temptation of 'Creation Power,' still refusing to take a shortcut to God Ascension?

Charlotte was taken aback.

Recalling everything she felt at the moment of her First Embrace, she suddenly saw the light and realized what she had been overlooking.
