[That look is one Eight easily identifies as recognition. It's something he has yet to see around here, when he dropped in bits and pieces of information about home. Names, places, or in this guy's case the name of his class. None of it seemed to ring any bells, but it seems talking about the Crystal has sparked something...unless he's just that surprised someone like him is capable of tossing spells around.
He's going to assume it's the fore and not the latter. Does that mean wherever this guy's from, he's heard of Crystals? It'd be a first, as bizarre as that has been for him, what with every major nation having had one, at least before Milites went on its campaign of trying to seize or destroy them all.
Sometimes, Eight really wonders which it was supposed to be, exactly]
Rubrum. [To be precise, Akademia, but he's been going with his nation so far. So far nobody seems to know the same nations, somehow. He sure hasn't heard of that Asgard place Loki is from] Heard of it?
[His tone suggests that he's already sure of the answer; there's nothing hopeful in it, only a cursory inquiry]
