Glam was surprised. Deep inside, he felt fear and anxiety, trembling with unease. He tried to think of who could have sent him such a message, but no one came to mind. He was confused. Not only that, but he thought it might be spam, just an advertisement trying to lure him to an unknown website. But why would someone want to lure him to an unreliable site when there was no link, no website name, nothing, just this message?

So he continued on his way and arrived home. After finishing his homework, he went to bed, but he couldn't stop thinking about the mysterious message. The next day, he discussed it with Tort.

Glam:
"- So, you see, yesterday I received a very strange message, and I can't stop thinking about it."
Tort:
"- What kind of message is troubling you so much?"
Glam showed it to him.
Tort:
"- It's probably nothing serious, just someone trying to scare you, don't worry."
Glam:
"- You're probably right, it's just my imagination playing tricks on me."
Tort:
"- We should hurry, the class is about to start."

Glam quickly forgot about the message, but throughout the day, the same message was sent repeatedly, driving Glam crazy. Finally, he responded to the message.

Glam:
"- Who are you?"
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB83Sp2vdX9
The unknown person replied,
"- Someone."

Glam said:
"- Why are you sending me this message?"
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUHqMzHXeg
The person didn't answer that question; instead, they just sent this:
"- Your family."

Glam said:
"- My family? What? Why?"

And the person didn't respond anymore. Glam began to have countless questions. When he returned home, he went to his parents with the intention of asking them a question, but he gave up. Glam's parents were quite wealthy and came from families with powerful abilities, just like Glam himself. He went upstairs and stumbled upon a photo. He realized that he didn't resemble his parents at all and thought to himself:

"- Am I adopted?"

Glam suddenly remembered that it was common for financially well-off families to adopt high-potential children. It also occurred to him that ten years after the arrival of the Gardas, the areas possessing these stones were closed off to the general public. It was impossible to touch them, so the powers had eventually been genetically inherited. Newborns with powers tended to have abilities similar to those of their parents. Glam possessed powers that were very different from his parents'. Glam had never questioned it due to his parents' excuses, which, upon reflection, seemed quite flimsy.

He took a photo album and started flipping through it. He realized that the pictures of him as a child, according to what his parents had said, showed facial features that were quite different from his current appearance. Glam started to have many questions. Had his life always been a lie? Did he have a brother whose existence he didn't know about? Who was he really? Or was he just overthinking, his imagination playing tricks on him?

Glam was astonished, but he suspected that the person wasn't referring to that when he or she wrote that message. What could it possibly mean?
