Jason would never forget how Taniel appeared before him.
Taniel came for the materials from those monsters.
So...
Who informed Taniel about this?
Given his less-than-bright demeanor, it wasn't possible for him to actively gather information.
Someone must have 'accidentally' let Taniel know everything, making him believe he had found out on his own.
To achieve this was not difficult.
Especially when dealing with someone of Taniel's personality.
Of course!
It was also possible that Taniel had been involved all along.
Perhaps everything before had been a pretense.
And this was a significant reason why Jason had entered the tent.
He needed to confirm whether Taniel was truly foolish or just feigning ignorance.
As for the string of words before?
They were merely a prelude to this moment.
"Taniel is not an issue?" Jason looked at the old lord with both eyes, asking word by word.
The old lord appeared quite surprised to hear such a question.
