Chapter 122: Bring Their Attention To You!
Aldrian’s mind was drawn back to the moment when he glimpsed memories of his time as a ruler—or something of that kind. During that time, he saw a symbol much like this one. The symbol was a large circle, emanating light that seemed to illuminate everything around it. Beneath the large circle was a smaller one, the symbol of yin and yang.
The symbol that Duke Valiard had drawn was the same as that one. It felt surreal to Aldrian, as if he had just uncovered a small piece of his true identity—an identity rooted in his ’past.’ This also reaffirmed that what he had seen was real and not just some illusion.
Duke Valiard sensed the change in Aldrian’s mood and wondered if he recognized the symbol.
"Young master, do you know what this symbol represents?" he asked.
Aldrian, after letting his emotions slip for a brief moment, composed himself and responded calmly to Duke Valiard.
"No, I just find this symbol intriguing. It piqued my interest," Aldrian replied.
Duke Valiard narrowed his eyes suspiciously, but continued his explanation.
"The only clue to my elder brother’s disappearance is this symbol, which none of us had ever seen before. It appeared out of nowhere. We thought it might be connected to some organization, but no records mention anyone using this kind of symbol, even to this day. We began to suspect it might not be a symbol at all, but rather a hidden message. But we still don’t know what that message could be."
"You won’t find any message because this is a true symbol," Aldrian thought to himself.
