The image in the mirror gradually faded, but Duncan still stood in front of it, lost in thought for a long time.
He had never concealed from Lucresia the situation about his "incarnation" or the powers related to the incarnation—his "messenger," Ai Yi, could move quickly between the "signposts" constituted by his incarnations. His power and primary consciousness could also instantly switch between them. This ability was both powerful and convenient, but in Light Breeze Harbor, he had not arranged such an "incarnation."
One reason, of course, was that he had not found a "suitable" vessel, but he kept the more important reason to himself.
He looked at the mirror in front of him, scrutinizing his current visage within it.
Somehow, he had become completely accustomed to this once strange face, this powerful body, this somber and majestic appearance... It had become the "code name" by which he lived in this world.
