For Alaric, Lilith's appearance was entirely an accident.
Choosing to support Il on the path of becoming an omnipotent god and fighting through faith was merely an incidental decision for Alaric.
As for naming the demi-plane "Genesis: Eden," that was nothing more than his own mischievous sense of humor.
Who could have expected that Il would actually rename himself Yahweh afterward, perfectly matching the name of the monotheistic supreme god, and even go on to create Adam, Eve, and Lilith?
This gave Alaric a subtle and complex feeling, as if history itself had been created by his own hands.
Could it be that something like fate truly existed? That some things were destined to appear?
All along, Alaric had neither deliberately overturned the development of the Type-Moon world nor intentionally maintained it.
However, based on the conclusions he drew after traveling around the world, his arrival had not produced a significant butterfly effect.
Generally speaking, the major events that were supposed to happen across the world still occurred.
The only differences from the original history might lie in the form those events took, for example, the Argonaut Expedition and the Trojan War in Greek mythology.
Although the situation within the Greek divine domain had become vastly different from the original myths due to the rise of Alaric and Hecate, it still did not prevent these two major events from taking place.
As for other events, since Alaric had not personally experienced the Age of Gods in the Type-Moon world, relying solely on his knowledge of mythology and human history, he could not discern any differences.
Only the Egyptian divine domain, which Alaric had deeply influenced, had taken a different path.
The Argonaut Expedition and the Trojan War could be set aside, for Alaric had been directly involved in them, and their occurrence had its own inherent logic.
For instance, the suppression of the remnants of the previous Titan pantheon by the Olympian gods, and the internal conflicts within the Olympian pantheon itself.
The existence of these issues meant that even if those events had not occurred, as long as the fundamental contradictions within the Greek divine domain remained unresolved, similar events would inevitably have taken place.
But Il renaming himself Yahweh, and the rise of the biblical pantheon, served as a real wake-up call for Alaric.
Back when Alaric still lived on Earth, he had studied a wide range of subjects and enjoyed reading all kinds of miscellaneous books.
He knew that in real human history, Christianity originated from Judaism, and the two could roughly be distinguished by the scriptures they followed, the former followed the New Testament while also recognizing the Old Testament, having branched out from the latter; while the latter was more ancient and traditional, adhering only to the Old Testament.
In fact, the greatest difference between Christianity and Judaism lay in their so-called savior of humanity, the Messiah, the Son of God, Jesus.
In Judaism, the "one true God" and "supreme deity" referred to Yahweh, and the believers of Judaism, the Jews, later the Israelites, were considered the chosen people of Yahweh.
As for Christianity, although it inherited concepts such as the "supreme god," "prophets," and "revelations" from Judaism, the one it truly worshiped was Jesus, the Son of God. Anyone who believed in God and Jesus could become one of God's chosen people.
Because of this, Christianity broke away from Judaism and spread widely. Clearly, Christianity had no bloodline restrictions, anyone could become a child of God and thus ascend to heaven after death.
Regardless of the relationship between Christianity and Judaism, it could not be denied that Christianity was derived from Judaism, and Judaism itself originated from the religious beliefs of the Canaanite gods.
Canaanite religion originated from the Semitic people who inhabited the land of Canaan (or Phoenicia), and the Jews were one of their branches.
The Semitic tribes often had their own deities, and their mutual conquests and assimilations were frequently reflected in mythology.
A glance at the Old Testament makes it clear that Yahweh had many entanglements with the gods of Canaan, the so-called "Promised Land" of Canaan, the sin of "idolatry" committed by the Jews upon entering Canaan, Yahweh's command to destroy the seven tribes of Canaan, and so on…
Undoubtedly, the roots of the biblical faith originated in the land of Canaan.
It was precisely because of this that when Alaric had a sudden inspiration to support Il, he deliberately, out of mischief, named the demi-plane seed he gave him "Eden."
Yet who could have imagined that Il would truly rename himself Yahweh, and go on to create "Adam," "Lilith," and "Eve" in a convincing manner, even producing scriptures praising himself that were nearly identical to what Alaric had seen on Earth?
It should be known that aside from his earlier assistance, Alaric had never revealed secrets like the Bible, things that existed only in another world, to him. All of this was conceived and carried out unconsciously by Il himself.
In other words, everything was a coincidence.
But how could there be so many coincidences in the world?
Why was it that on the same Earth, whether in a world without magic or in a world like Type-Moon where magic existed, all myths and histories were essentially identical?
Only now did Alaric begin to ponder the deeper meaning behind this.
In fact, there were only two possibilities.
The first was that somewhere there existed a higher-level world, where systems such as the biblical faith, Buddhism, and various pantheons existed.
These higher beings influenced many worlds, their projections existing across different worlds and shaping their development.
But upon careful thought, Alaric realized that this was impossible.
Leaving aside the existence of the Sea of Chaos, which prevented the formation and projection of such higher planes, even if it could not block them, these higher beings would not cause every world's development to follow the exact same template.
After all, these beings were not machines reacting according to fixed mechanisms. They possessed intelligence, and intelligence meant thinking, and thinking meant that for the same problem, they might arrive at different answers.
Thus, the second possibility was likely the true answer, that there existed an inherent connection between worlds, or perhaps they shared a common origin.
This concept was similar to that of parallel worlds.
As a result, although each world developed differently, the underlying logic of their development guided them toward broadly similar paths.
Of course, this logic was entirely different from the pruning phenomenon found in the many parallel worlds of the Type-Moon setting.
Alaric even wondered, if he could discover this hidden mechanism, would it help him in traveling between worlds?
For example, if he became a savior in this world and was favored by it, would that favor carry over into the next parallel Earth?
Or if he obtained certain world laws or activated a particular divine authority in this world, could he also possess that same authority in the next world?
However, such research was far too vast for him at present, leaving him with no clear starting point. Perhaps only by experiencing more worlds could he begin to grasp a clue.

PS: In fact, there are several pieces of evidence suggesting that Yahweh originated from Il. First, God's self-designation as "El."
In Canaanite religion, Baal and El were not only names of chief gods but also general terms for deities.
Yet God called Himself El while treating Baal as an enemy, perhaps because the Jews originally belonged to a tribe that worshiped El.
Additionally, in certain archaeological findings related to Judaism, there is evidence of God having a consort, Asherah. In Canaanite mythology, Asherah is known either as the consort of El or of Baal (Baal indeed took El's wife, Asherah).
Third is divine authority. In Canaanite mythology, although divine roles could change, they usually had some defined domain.
Only El consistently held titles such as king of gods and father of gods, without a specific domain, this corresponds to the nearly omnipotent nature attributed to God, distinct from the specialized roles of polytheistic deities.
Fourth is enmity. In the Old Testament, two names of gods appear frequently, Baal and Astaroth (that is, Anat).
The former is mentioned over a hundred times in the Bible without any praise, even being degraded into Beelzebub, the lord of flies.
The latter, despite holding titles such as goddess of love, harvest, the moon, and war, comparable to Aphrodite in Greek mythology (both being Venus goddesses derived from Ishtar), is vilified as a genderless, bloodthirsty demon.
This corresponds to the enmity between Il and these two deities (so-called divine conflicts can essentially be understood as conflicts between tribes).
