Lukas was someone who looked at the world in simple ways.
Most people looked out for themselves and if a person were to do something, even if it seemed like a good thing, then they would benefit from it—even if it was just the feeling of satisfaction that was associated with it.
It wasn't a necessarily wrong way to live life in his opinion, but it did propose something disturbing.
At least for the case with Lux and the Carmilla House.
Why didn't Lux simply offer to buy the Blood Gourd?
"Is it… unavailable?" Lukas slowly asked.
Idris and Iolathane Durand didn't answer him all at once and instead the two shared a look.
"That is not something we can ascertain. Perhaps the city of Lux is not aware that it can be bought. The House of Carmilla has far more connections than they do, so they might have contacts that will get them the Blood Gourd even if it's not available in the market," Idris said.
Lukas thought it sounded like an excuse.
