He is the soul of a cosmic entity constantly on the run, forced to transmigrate between worlds across the multiverse. In what might be his final transmigration, before he finally faces the evil that has chased him for an eon. He seeks to fulfill a promise—to raise the Roman Empire to the level of a Celestial Empire!
