Kaelen immediately stood from his seat, startling Emily, who blinked at him in confusion. Red hair, claymore... it has to be him! ...right?
A laugh escaped his lips, bubbling up from a mix of relief and excitement. Who would have thought that he would find information about Thane like this? For once, luck seemed to be on his side—or perhaps it was the strings of fate at work.
Emily looked at him, tilting her head slightly as concern was etched on her features.
"Is... something wrong?"
Kaelen snapped back to reality, realizing he had been lost in thought. He quickly walked around the table until he was near where Emily sat. Without thinking, he bowed deeply, his upper body bending forward as he spoke earnestly.
"Please, I know you probably won't believe this, but that person you mentioned—he's someone I know! If you have any information about him, it would be a great help to me."
