After they shook hands, Lothur stopped using his visual power on this young man, who clearly had a Soul Bone in his left eye.
Lothur was not the friendly type with anyone who came near him. He was more the type who would only get involved with whoever was necessary, or he was interested in, following the example of the women he had gotten involved with so far.
But seeing that apprentice in the profession of formation master with a Soul Bone standing next to him, Lothur could not help but value this person. After all, he did not want to have to be actively involved in his future endeavors.
No, he wanted to live in the shadows while others would do the hard work for him!
As such, having capable people by his side was of paramount relevance for Lothur to realize his dream of domination without worry!
Thus, Lothur introduced himself to that man who had not seen Annaliese's brother-in-law earlier show of confidence because he was taking the test at that moment.
