158: Chapter 157 Rebirth and Reunion
Chapter 158: Newborns and Reunions
The letters written by Eliza were not many; most of them talked about things related to Gray, while a small portion inquired about Byron's progress in Potionology and whether he was confident about the Potion Master examination.
She also mentioned her own situation over the recent period, mainly that she was in Mentor Isolde's Laboratory, continuously learning Potionology knowledge and brewing various potions under the mentor's guidance.
At the end of the last letter, however, Eliza mentioned that if Byron finished his experiments and had time, the two of them should get together, as she had something to ask him.
Seeing this, Byron frowned slightly. Eliza had something to ask him?
Since she had something to ask him, why did she only leave a letter instead of contacting him through the Communication Crystal?
Although Byron had instructed Wally that no one was to disturb him for the sake of his experiments, he had still given his Communication Crystal number to a few people he was close to.
This was so that if there was something urgent, he could receive the message in time and react.
Eliza was among them, yet since she had something to discuss with him, she had not contacted him via the Communication Crystal.
Since that was the case, it meant that this matter of Eliza's was not particularly urgent.
In that case, he would wait until his affairs here were finished, then go find her and ask what she wanted.
Thinking of this, Byron looked at Alina's letter.
After flipping through it a few times, Byron put down the letter in his hand, a helpless look appearing on his face.
The content on them was much the same.
They were all asking Byron to find her as soon as his experiment was over, as she had urgent matters to discuss with him.
It was just that Alina did not mention what the urgent matter was in the letters; Byron even suspected that these letters had been placed in Wally's hands just in the last few days.
Because this time when Byron walked out of the Laboratory, he had also received a message from Alina on the Communication Crystal, saying she had important matters to discuss.
Thinking of this, Byron reached up to stroke his chin, pondering to himself.
Alina had urgent matters to find him; what could she possibly have?
Was it because of Colin? Mentor Isolde? The Fallen Sun Council? Wait!
Thinking of the Fallen Sun Council, Byron's eyes narrowed slightly.
He might have already guessed the answer!
He had not forgotten that he still had seven spots left in his hands.
Once he thought of this, Byron guessed that the news of the exploration of the other world must have already been revealed by the academy.
Otherwise, Dylan and the others in the Fallen Sun Council would not be so anxious, making Alina call him incessantly.
After figuring out the reason, Byron felt more confident.
After putting away these letters, Byron walked toward the place agreed upon in Alina's message.
Along the way, Byron noticed many young boys and girls, looking only thirteen or fourteen years old, with excited expressions, immature features, and faces he did not recognize.
Seeing these boys and girls, Byron had the answer in his heart; it seemed these people were the newborns Wally had mentioned.
He did not expect that this batch of newborns would have so many people; it was much more than his own batch.
It seemed that Dylan and the others had achieved good results in this trial.
While he was thinking, Byron also noticed the gazes full of awe and curiosity that those newborns were directing at him, and he sighed inwardly.
Unknowingly, five years had passed since he stepped onto this Dao of a wizard; it was truly somewhat overwhelming.
After sighing, Byron quickened his pace again and walked forward, no longer watching those newborns.
Just after Byron left, that group of newborns gathered together excitedly, chattering and starting to discuss Byron.
And the topics they discussed were nothing more than those few.
What year was Byron in, what rank of Wizard Apprentice he was, and which mentor's Disciple he was...
Arriving at the agreed-upon place, the same smell, the same location.
Yes, the place they agreed on was still the Grey Dome Restaurant.
It seemed that in their impression, the Grey Dome Restaurant was the place for gatherings and discussions.
However, one could not blame these wizards who treated the Grey Dome Restaurant as a place to discuss matters.
After all, one certainly could not discuss matters in public and let everyone know, so there had to be a certain degree of privacy.
Moreover, for creatures like wizards who were extremely cautious and extremely lacking in a sense of security, holding discussions on the other party's turf was certainly not acceptable.
Therefore, adding in some other messy reasons, it led to the current situation.
Pushing the door and walking in, what came into view were precisely Dylan, Loris, Ivan, and Alina.
And as the door was pushed open, Dylan and the others also saw Byron.
Seeing Byron's arrival, Dylan and the others all revealed a smile on their faces and stood up to walk toward Byron.
And Byron, of course, could not stand still and wait for them to come over; naturally, he chose to greet them.
The first to meet with Byron was none other than his senior sister, Alina.
Alina pulled Byron into a hug and said with a hearty laugh: "Byron, I've finally seen you. You're harder to find now than even the mentor."
"But you really are rich, quietly renting a B-class Laboratory and starting your own research in your freshman year."
"If I had known that being a Potion Master was so profitable, I would have followed the mentor to study Potionology knowledge properly from the very beginning. That way, I wouldn't be like this now."
Hearing Alina's words, Byron smiled and teased: "Senior sister, wasn't it because you couldn't sit still and couldn't learn it that you didn't continue?"
As soon as these words were out, the three of them—Dylan, Loris, and Ivan—burst into laughter, with Loris laughing the loudest.
She even patted Alina's shoulder while laughing and teased: "Alina, with your personality, making you stay quiet for a while is like killing you. Are you sure you could successfully brew a potion completely?"
"But it's fortunate you didn't continue studying Potionology; otherwise, the money you earned wouldn't be enough to cover your waste."
"You couldn't sit still halfway through, felt stifled in your heart, and just quit altogether—that's something you actually did! You haven't forgotten that yourself, have you?"
Hearing this, Byron looked at Alina, who was holding him, in surprise; he really didn't know about this matter, that Alina had actually done such a thing.
However, thinking about it carefully, such a thing did indeed fit Alina's personality.
And Alina noticed the look Byron was giving her; her fair cheeks turned as red as the sun instantly, bright red.
"What are you looking at? Haven't you seen something like this before?!"
Hearing this, Byron nodded sincerely.
"Senior sister, I actually haven't seen anyone like you who could bear to leave and give up halfway through. How on earth did you manage to do it? Can you tell me?"
This kind of thing was something Byron certainly couldn't do.
Hearing Byron's words, Alina became angry out of shame and raised her hand to press down on Byron's head, ruffling it incessantly.
While ruffling his hair, she said: "I'll let you ask me! You want to know, right? I'll tell you now!"
After ruffling Byron's hair, she didn't let Loris go either and started bickering with her.
