Alfred caught sight of Eliana looking a bit lost as she wandered about the streets of the lower city. "Miss Eliana, it looks like you are in search of something. Maybe I'll be able to help you." Stepping up to her, he offered her a helpful hand with a smile on hia face.
Alfred was aware of Val's relationship with Eliana. He understood that assisting her would inadvertently aid Val.
His aim was to get on Val's good side, and this seemed like a suitable opportunity.
Furthermore, by helping Eliana find a suitable job, Alfred also ensured she would have a stable position in society. This would benefit Val indirectly, as Val wouldn't have to worry about Eliana's welfare and could focus more on developing his wizardry skills. It was a strategic move aimed at establishing a beneficial alliance with Val through kindness towards Eliana.
