What 𘕢 means
It is a Tangut character glossed as “enemy.”
Tangut was the language of Western Xia, a historical state; its script was promulgated in 1036. Tangut writing continued after the state fell in 1227, including in Buddhist books and printed works. In a historical passage, surrounding words identify the foe.
Why does 𘕢 show as a square?
Your font may not contain Tangut.
That can produce a square or another fallback mark. A Tangut web font may fix it in a browser, while a separate app may need Tangut installed on the device.
Historical and specialized; a standalone message needs context.
“Enemy” is the dictionary gloss, not proof the sender means you.

1Why does 𘕢 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
