Chapter 115 - 105: The Ominous Shadow of the Black Dragon Over Life_2
Because Grandfather’s gaze rarely lingered on him, it was always on that Uncle Noah, and even from the few, meager glances, Uranos could only feel disappointment and sighs.
Such a gaze made young Ur feel somewhat panic-stricken and uneasy, with a profound lack of understanding. He didn’t understand why Grandfather was not satisfied with him, despite having achieved everything to the best of his current ability.
He crossed mountains and rivers to arrive, without receiving any praise or approval. In training, despite his remarkable progress and frequent compliments from Uncle Noah, Grandfather never acknowledged him.
Everything he did seemed expected, no matter how outstanding his performance; in Grandfather’s eyes, it was just ordinary, plain, and nothing worth praising.
In contrast, Uncle Noah often received compliments and admiration from Grandfather, that undisguised look of appreciation and admiration made Uranos extremely envious.
But such gazes would never fall upon him; that was the recognition he longed for, yet could never attain.
What was more worrying for Uranos was that Uncle Noah did not care, but felt rather troubled, secretly guiding him and teaching him how to hone his combat skills to attract Grandfather’s attention.
In a daze, Uranos had an illusion that the situation should not have been like this, and that Grandfather’s approving gaze should have been on him.
But due to Uncle Noah’s existence, he became an unimportant bystander, with none of his actions exceeding Grandfather’s expectations, and even causing disappointment.
These emotions of great sadness and loss were born when Uranos accidentally saw Uncle Noah practicing in the training ground of the rear mountain with Grandfather.
