"Senior Brother Lucas, where have you been?" A curiosity-product question came from Brian as he saw Lucas entering the room in the late hours of the night.
"Nowhere. I was just strolling that I didn't notice that it was time to sleep."
"Ah… Okay… I will be sleeping now." Brian said. "Ah! By the way, Senior Brother, I will be going back to the capital and might be rejoining my family since, as it looks like, they are searching for me. I don't want to cause more trouble for you."
Lucas merely scoffed and swayed his hands simultaneously. "You don't have to worry about it."
Brian returned to the room's division and went to his bed. Meanwhile, Lucas took a few more moments to reflect on what he had learned that day. He was only watching people's lives for the purpose of his mission. Because he had to learn how to gain their favor, he should have at least a passing familiarity with their way of life.
