The whole group, minus Sergeant Rita, was seated at the same table, with Brother Choi and two Church Guards, who Karl hadn't seen before.
"I take it that you two are the evening shift? My apologies for the trouble." Karl greeted them.
The guards smiled and nodded, but didn't say anything as they waited for the meal to begin.
The process here was a bit different from the Seminary Academy, as everyone here was already graduated and working, so they only waited for the staff to bring the meal, and then someone rang a bell and everyone began to eat.
Karl realized quickly that the Guards on duty were not supposed to speak, as they simply gestured to be passed items from the table, instead of asking. If they had been able to speak to anyone, it would have made sense to just ask Brother Choi for what was closest to him, but it all worked smoothly enough, as the other Clerics knew the routine already.
