Winnie Scati suddenly spoke up, causing Dark to stop in his tracks.
And once he stopped, he ended up being the last one remaining.
He simply waited until Eudora had finished asking her questions before walking up to the desk last and taking a seat.

Dark pondered with a trace of embarrassment at having been seen through. "I see. In other words, I can obtain higher permissions from the Gate of Truth and assess the value of things at a higher limit. That is indeed an extremely pure benefit.

He did not pursue the matter further and said to Professor Kazel, "I think I understand. Thank you, Professor."
