Aiden regretted using the potion like that, but he didn't have another choice if he didn't want to be noticed by the guards.
He wanted to keep it so that he could steal the materials for the Elixir, but I guess life wasn't meant this way.
There were literally no other options for him. The only way to advance in the castle was to go through this hallway.
He was now on the stairs and there didn't seem to be any guards close to him, so he decided to go upstairs, maybe the generals would be there in their room.
As he reached the top of the stairs, there was another hallway with multiple doors on each side with names written on them, probably indicating which rooms belonged to which person.
There were many names but obviously didn't have the names of the two generals that he had seen in the garden.
