"Sigh, It's gonna be a long century, isn't it?" Ashborn questioned himself. "Or will it truly be that long?" he thought to himself while he was flying in Kaisel's back in Csilla's atmosphere, As he was already thinking of what he would achieve in that period of time.
--170 years later (1985)--
The BlackHeart empire would've been unknown if you asked someone about it 170 years ago. They would've said that an empire with such a name doesn't exist. But now who doesn't know the empire that has under its wing 500 planets. And this empire achieved that in less than 200 years, Which is incredible. How did this empire that seemed to get out from absolutely nowhere get this much power in such a short time? Well, that would be for many reasons.
Maybe it was because of the immortal army that rules the Shadows and serves the emperor. Or the loyal, powerful Chriss race that is said to be blessed by the Blackheart emperor himself, and their advanced weapons. Speaking of advanced technology, This particular Empire promised prosperity for the surrounding kingdoms by supplying them with 'miracle robots' or what peasants called them for their abilities. And for the reason of the empire ruling the Shadows, Literally. No one dares to think of betraying such a powerful empire. Especially knowing about the power of the emperor.
The emperor of such an empire is called, 'Ashborn Blackheart' also known as The Shadow monarch. Not much is known about this person. Some rumors say that he is a powerful immortal cosmic being, and such rumor began after he covered with his powers a whole planet in shadows and then crushed it like a small rock in front of a pirate who dared to threaten him with the base of operations in the said planet. Plus, the immortal Shadow army under his command would eliminate anyone with a simple order of their emperor.
That said emperor is sitting on a throne that his minions made for him while thinking to himself: 'I have accomplished so much in this short period of time. From conquering planets to becoming a tech master and adding soldiers to my army, dead or alive. Finding out that I have Umbrakinesis on a solar system scale, and strangely enough, The previous Shadow monarch didn't use it much besides creating weapons. Also having a very convenient power that I got from the reality stone and that is the reality manipulation.'

'I am bored, and I don't have a real reason for conquering those planets or a reason to get more powerful than I already am. Hmmm, I miss earth and I think I should finally head back there. Alright, I've decided.' After a long thought, Ashborn summoned Demiurge and Morilya. Morilya didn't age a single bit in the past 170 years, the reason being from the blessing that he gave Chriss race that contains : (Minor regeneration, Super strength, Super agility, Minor darkness manipulation, Minor mind-enhancing.)
"My emperor." "My Lord." They both fell on their knees and he said.
"I think I will have a vacation on earth. For an unspecified period of time, as I haven't decided how long it will be. So you Morilya will act as my representative as you have stayed with me for more than 100 years, so you know my ways. Demiurge you will stay here to act as advisor and both of you will make sure to build more influence for the empire. Jebril will act as the guardian and the supreme leader of the army, as he's the grand marshall just below me in the shadow army. Prepare a ship for me. You're dismissed." To which both of them answered without question as they already understood that his words are Supreme: "Your wish is our command" And then add Something that brought a smile to Ashborn's face: "For the emperor!!"
After a short period of time, a small 'Odyssey ship' has been prepared. Ashborn could just teleport there, but he wished to ride the ship on his own as the pilot, as he thought it would be a fun experience.
"I have informed Sebastian of your visit to Earth, my lord, and he was overjoyed. He informed me that he will be waiting for you, my lord." Demiurge said with his usual smile.
"Good." Was all That Ashborn replied before he got on board the ship. " Now ... This is gonna be fun."
