Soon after, the appearance of Lynch made Rica understand how the High Priest in Nagariel knew the word "Foundation".
Unlike other foreigners settled locally who pretended to conform to local religious customs, Lynch did not make the gesture of blessing to wish everyone happiness; he just looked on calmly and said "Hello".
Even to the High Priest, Lynch simply said "Hello" as their way of greeting when they met.
He glanced at Rica, who lowered his head under Lynch's gaze, still somewhat fearful of him, as the pain from his broken bones was not easily forgotten.
Rica's retreat and bowing caused him to miss noticing the hope that shattered and turned ordinary in the eyes of the High Priest when he acted this way.
"You leave first, I have something to discuss with Mr. Lynch," said the High Priest, looking at his most favored youngest son, who bowed, opened his hands, and left backward.
