Howard's words left both Kellman and Tina utterly bewildered, unable to comprehend his intentions.
However, Kellman soon made a startling connection, his eyes widening in disbelief as he turned to Howard.
"Are you planning to target Kaedwyn himself?"
Howard had mentioned earlier that the innkeeper resembled Kaedwyn, suggesting a significant connection between them.
Moreover, considering the location of the inn - isolated, desolate, and frequented by Night Demons - it was improbable for an old man to live alone in such a place.
It could very well be one of Kaedwyn's hideouts or even his main base.
Realizing this, Kellman broke out in a cold sweat.
If his suspicions were correct, Howard's plan to use the old man against Kaedwyn was incredibly risky.
