The Heavenly Martial Empress Returns Chapter 303: Solarians' History

-----

“Ooh?!”

I gasped, my aura surged with immense strength, as I felt my muscles growing tougher, my blood rapidly flowed through my body until I became red like a tomato, letting out steam from my body, sweating.

My organs started twitching and breaking apart and then regenerating again; my muscles grew old and then younger. For a moment I became an old, decrepit lady, only to immediately become rejuvenated.

Incredible, to think this can work even on a Venerable such as myself! It is a top-notch treasure!

I screamed, feeling like I was shedding my old self; my hair became iridescent, my skin even younger, my eyes golden and rainbow, and I felt every single one of my veins glowing bright red and then gold.

I felt every single one of my powerful cells absorbing this essence, this serum, to the point it felt like I was ascending into a higher realm altogether…

FLASH!

And as I felt relieved of everything, a bright light erupted from my body, illuminating all of my surroundings with immense power and luminescence.

And then, I felt sleepy, closing my eyes, I dropped onto the floor and fell unconscious.

“Ah!”

My eyes widened as I found myself in the middle of a starry cosmos.

There was nothing but outer space here, countless stars in the distance, and perhaps planets and other astral objects.

But this… was a dream, surely.

Or…?

BOOOM!

“Huh?”

I glanced into the depths of this cosmos as two large planets collided. A small rocky planet and what seemed to be a large, brown-colored gas giant similar to Saturn.

The massive explosion provoked by their collision sent shockwaves through space as the rocky planet burned, mixing with the crystal core of the gas giant, rapidly fusing into a single object.

Although it seemed quick to me, this might have happened over tens of millions of years.

The blazing core was formed first, followed by the cooled crust and then a rich atmosphere, creating a gigantic planet.

Over time, the planet had storms and rain, an ocean was formed, and three continents.

As I approached this planet, I saw it all: how life came to be, the first microbes, how many died, and how others survived.

Until, ultimately, a few of them managed to evolve by absorbing solar radiation, strengthening themselves, and creating their own energy.

They divided into countless different species, but among them, one of them kept moving, always fighting against adversities.

It multiplied its cells, ultimately becoming small worms, and then they diversified into fish-like beings, crustacean-like creatures, and even larger worms.

Through billions of years of evolution, they continued transforming, evolving further, reaching land, and walking on their feet.

Countless alien lifeforms surged one after another, and among them, monkey-like beings similar to us humans appeared.

These monkeys diversified even further; some resembled apes, others gorillas, and then, one of them started walking on their two feet.

They ran, they were strong, and they even wrestled with local wildlife. Among every other lifeform, they were the toughest, having evolved to specialize in the absorption of solar radiation.

And after a few million years of evolution, they lost their fur, they became even more muscular and stronger, and through union, they raised societies, building a world of their own.

And the Society of Solarians was born.

They had wars, but they also had peace; their technology advanced much faster than ours, and their strength and longevity helped them create a very stable society.

Ultimately, some of them divided, flying into the far stars, while the majority remained in their home, living their own lives, improving their society, and fighting for their own futures.

But.

The planet was old, and even older was their star, which turned into a supernova, engulfing their solar system one planet after another.

The Solarians faced their fate without escaping from their beloved home, although a few managed to escape, and among them, a beloved child, an innocent little soul.

His spaceship was flying far, far away, traveling millions of light-years across the cosmos.

Until he landed on a parallel Earth, crashing into the house of a young couple, luckily not killing either of the two in the process…

“Oh, John! This is fate! A child has fallen from heaven… God has sent us a child, even though I could never have one of my own…”

As the woman held the baby with her arms, the young man she had married glanced at the boy’s bright blue eyes, realizing the future that awaited him.

“Yes… How about we call him Hall? Like my late grandfather.”

“And Kent like my father then?”

“Ah, yes, Hall Kent is his name then, hahaha!”

“Uwaaa! Abaaahh!”

As the cute little baby giggled and moved his little chubby arms, his life passed through my eyes: his early childhood, struggling to fit in in a world too weak for him; his adolescence, where he faced his first foes while building his morals; and his adulthood, where he kept a secret identity and became a hero, set to use the strength he was born with to save innocents.

If it weren’t for his wonderful parents, Hall would have become something else entirely. His strength made him a living god, and yet his heart was of gold, and he had a gentle, compassionate, and merciful nature.

Eventually, he alone helped the rest of the heroes of the world gather together into a single organization, set to bring order to their chaotic Earth, filled with superpowered criminals.

The dream I was experiencing slowly began to end as I saw the man smiling gently while glancing at his planet while bathing in the sun.

He truly loved his home.

I have to help him go back, definitely.
