Chapter 104 - Back In My Days...
Inside the control room, Emperor Polemos gazed at the picture on screen before his eyes narrowed, "This shot was taken near between Jupiter and Saturn?"
"Yes, Your Majesty." A control crew quickly nodded.
Emperor Polemos studied the image captured while tapping his foot on the white-alloyed floor for some time before inquiring, "Trace their coordinates. I want to know where exactly did they come from."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The crew answered.
Very shortly, several dozen keys and few calculations before one of the crew reported, "According to our analysis, the alien mothership should have used a type of warp drive technology to arrive from the direction of the Epsilon Eridani System."
"Epsilon Eridani System, huh?" Emperor Polemos nodded with a casual look before muttering, "To think that there was such an advanced alien civilization so close to us without our knowledge… For this to happen, their race should either be subterranean-based or aquatic-based."
"Continue to monitor them for now." Emperor Polemos gave his order.
The control crew was quickly startled before one of them asked, "We are not going to take any action against them, Your Majesty?"
"For now, let them deal with the interdimensional beasts in the outer ring. We can use this chance to gauge their strength and abilities," Emperor Polemos stated calmly before turning to a subordinate on his side, "Has my spacecraft been prepared yet?"
"Yes, Emperor Polemos." The subordinate responded subserviently.
At the same time, the control crew was shocked that the emperor was still leaving them in such a situation, causing them to panic and ask nervously, "You're going to leave us, Your Majesty?"
"Un, I need to go welcome the return of our big boss, the true leader of the Ashura Group, the Dark Emperor." Emperor Polemos nodded.
"Dark Emperor…" The control crew slightly shivered.
They have heard stories of the Dark Emperor's feats ever since the other three Horsemen betrayed the Dark Emperor and spread the information, allowing the world to learn about the master behind the curtains.
The Dark Emperor's stories strike terror into the hearts of men, and even babies stop crying at the mention of his name.
Even if they worked under such a person, it did not stop their trembling fear.
Nevertheless, Emperor Polemos was not interested in wasting his time listening to their thoughts and departed with a flick of his wrist.

Aurora continent, River City
Boom!
Emperor Thanatos clashed with the Behemoth-class Colossal Wyvern as his black daggers continued to draw lines on the enormous interdimensional creature's body.
After a large slit was opened on the Behemoth-class Colossal Wyvern's back, Emperor Thanatos dived into its wound and wreak havoc inside.
Chunks of black columns and pillars were diced into pieces as Emperor Thanatos worked his way to the Colossal Wyvern's head before he crushed a black crystal ball.
The Behemoth-class Colossal Wyvern quickly died at the destruction of the black crystal ball and plummeted out of the sky.
Boom!
Several buildings collapsed from the immense weight of the Behemoth-class Colossal Wyvern's enormous body before Emperor Thanatos exited the fallen creature's mouth.
"Unexpectedly, a Behemoth-class interdimensional creature of this caliber almost made me level up again…" Emperor Thanatos muttered with pleasant surprise before turning his solemn gaze to a newly arrived subordinate.
"You have something to report?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. Just moments ago, we received news of Emperor Polemos leaving Damocles." The subordinate in black uniform reported.
"Polemos actually left that big space ball of his? Is he planning to wage another war?" Emperor Thanatos pondered before his eyes flickered fiercely, "No! He wants to make contact with the Dark Emperor! We mustn't let them meet!"
"Quickly contact Emperor Kasin and Empress Una—No, with their characters, they wouldn't deign to listen to a small fry like you. I will do it myself." Emperor Thanatos quickly stormed off while members of Nemesis took care of the Behemoth-class carcass.
The subordinate stood on the spot, his mouth opened before closing them without uttering a word. Before he could say or do anything, he was already roasted by the boss.
"Haiz…" The subordinately sighed helplessly.

Back on Royal Pearl Hotel's rooftop, Albion narrowed his eyes, but he knew it was not Xiao Hua's fault for his hair loss.
"You're lucky that I have a method to regrow my hair." Albion could not help but teased the little girl before he silently sighed, "Luckily, I have learned the Hundred Transformation Art."
"Big Brother Albion, you can really grow your hair back?" Xiao Hua asked with doubt.
"Watch and learn," Albion answered confidently before attempting to use a higher level of the Hundred Transformation Art.
Hmphf—!
[Spirit Energy: 0/100000]
[Ding! The host is attempting to use Spiritual Energy, which has already been exhausted, to accelerate hair growth.]
[Commencing refinement of True Energy into Spiritual Energy.]
+1
+1
+1
With each new unit of Spiritual Energy refined, it was quickly expended to regrow Albion's hair, shifting his head from the bald state to possessing some baby white hair.
[Free Reign: 7mins 52 secs]
Precious time ticked, but Albion was bent on regrowing his hair back to a certain length before he was satisfied.
However, a sudden urge to fart made him clench his rear end before he exclaimed, "Woah. Nearly squeezed too hard there."
"Nearly squeeze what too hard?" Xiao Hua asked curiously.
"Nothing. You don't need to know that." Albion waved the little girl off before inspecting his hair length and sighed, "Never mind, this buzz-cut length will do."
With a single thought, his cultivation was sealed and exited from the True Immortal State, returning to Mid-stage Innate Realm.
[Free Reign: 7mins 16 secs]
Xiao Hua pouted slightly at having her question waived, but she was quick to move on.
Her eyes lit up before she spouted with excitement, "Big Brother Albion! Since you took down such a strong monster, you're about to become famous! It's strange that you are not on the Hunter Ranking despite being so strong yet!"
"You think so? I better run and hide from the cameras then—is what I want to say, but why hasn't any of those diehard news reporters come to interview me yet?" Albion wondered.
"Eh? You're right, Big Brother Albion! This is so strange! Did they all die off somewhere?" Xiao Hua was surprised after Albion raised the question before she quickly said, "Let Xiao Hua quickly check the news."
She flipped out her smartphone and punched the keys into IKE's search bar.
Albion casually glanced at her latest Hiphone model before he mumbled, "Wow, kids these days are so well off."
"What are you talking about, Big Brother Albion? This is an essential tool of communication!" Xiao Hua justified.
"You misunderstood me, Xiao Hua. I didn't mean to say that it is unnecessary." Albion shook his head before he sighed, "I am just lamenting because back in my days, just owning a flip phone was considered a luxury…"
Xiao Hua did not listen seriously as she was reading the news before she suddenly exclaimed, "Ahh! Big Brother Albion, quickly look! Someone stole your credit!"
"What?" Albion wrinkled his brows and took a glance at the screen.
Seeing the current live interview taken place beside the Behemoth-class carcass and the person being interviewed, Albion's eyes widened slightly with a particularly dumbfounded expression.
"What the… How the f—Ahem, why is it this person again?"
