Chapter 137 Unexpected

Upon hearing Daphne's words, Byron did not immediately agree. He paused slightly in his work and fell silent. Daphne also noticed Byron's change, and her excited anticipation vanished instantly, leaving her somewhat depressed.

But she still forced a nonchalant expression on her face, looked up at Byron, and smiled.

"If Master feels it's a bit difficult, you don't have to agree to Daphne's request. Daphne can just wait outside for Master without having to go into the experimental area with Master."

"After all, Daphne hasn't even entered the experimental area yet. If she did, she would only cause trouble for her master and wouldn't be of any help to him."

Although Daphne said this and forced a smile, her eyes revealed a deep sense of loss and frustration.

Just as Daphne was feeling down, Byron smiled and vigorously rubbed her head with the hand he had placed on it.

"She said she didn't care, but the disappointment in her eyes was undeniable."

"Also, when did I ever reject Daphne? You're such a daydreamer."

Upon hearing Byron's words, Daphne's previously disappointed eyes instantly lit up with a bright light, and her face was filled with joy and excitement.

"Master...Does Master mean he agrees to let Daphne join the lab to help you?!"

Byron nodded: "Yes, since Daphne wants to work, how can I, as her master, refuse?"

At this point, Byron changed the subject.

"But once you're in the lab, Daphne shouldn't complain about how tiring the work is or that she doesn't want to do it. Besides, there will be so much more for Daphne to learn. I wonder if she can keep up with all that."

Daphne nodded vigorously: "Master, don't underestimate Daphne. Daphne is very capable and will definitely be able to help you!"

"Besides, Master Daphne learns things very quickly, she definitely won't hold Master back!"

Byron smiled and nodded: "That's good. It seems that Daphne will be able to save me a lot of trouble in the future when conducting experiments."

Daphne: "Yes, Master!!!"

After talking for a while, Byron walked outside.

He came out of the lab today because he had other, more important things to do.

The thought of that news stirred a surge of excitement within Byron.

After waiting for so long, we can finally see the results. I just don't know what my own gains will be. I must not let myself down.

But as soon as Byron stepped out of the laboratory, he saw two acquaintances.

They were Clevin and Andrei, the two who sailed the ship that brought Byron and the others into the Academy.

Upon seeing these two people, Byron was puzzled. What were they doing here? And what did they want with him?

It wasn't that Byron was narcissistic, but when Byron saw Klevins and his companion, Klevins and his companion also saw Byron, their eyes lit up, and they walked straight towards Byron.

There was no one else around, so when Byron saw the two of them looking like this, he naturally assumed that they had come looking for him.

Klevin and Andrei stopped in front of Byron, smiles spreading across their faces as they looked at him.

Klevin spoke first, smiling and greeting Byron: "Byron, it's been a long time. I can't believe you've come this far in just three years since you entered the academy. It makes us both feel ashamed."

Andre nodded in agreement: "From the very first moment I saw you, I could tell you were different from us ordinary people. You are a true genius!"

"But I never expected that in just three short years you would make such a name for yourself in the academy. It's simply unbelievable!"

Some of these words were deliberate flattery from the two, while others came from the bottom of their hearts, after all, they had not forgotten the purpose of their visit.

Thinking of what their leader had told them, the two men were filled with emotion. Sometimes, the difference between people can be even greater than the difference between a person and a dog!

Hearing the constant stream of praise from the two men, Byron's lips twitched slightly. He didn't think he knew these two that well.

Moreover, on the ferry, the two focused their attention on the students with higher qualifications, and the number of things they said to him could be counted on one hand.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation!

As for those people I used to look up to, now I hear them flattering and fawning over me, and the resulting sense of superiority and enjoyment...

Despite the gesture, Byron felt nothing of the sort.

Even Byron felt a growing impatience listening to their conversation, feeling that they were wasting his time.

After all, these feelings are far less exciting than the thrill of making a breakthrough in an experiment.

Besides, he has more important things to do later, and he doesn't have time to play house with the two of them here. It's better to be straightforward.

Thinking of this, Byron looked at the two of them expressionlessly: "You two must have something to discuss with me, otherwise you wouldn't have known the location of my laboratory."

"I haven't told many people where my lab is, so I didn't expect you guys to find out. You must have put in a lot of effort."

"Besides, I have important things to attend to later, so please just say what you need to say. I won't invite you both in to sit down, so as not to waste each other's time."

Clevin and Andrei were taken aback by Byron's words; they hadn't expected him to be so blunt.

However, instead of showing any displeasure and leaving, the two people's smiles became even wider.

Klevin: "Byron, you have a keen eye. No wonder you've made such a name for yourself. I'm truly impressed. We did come here to see you about something."

Andrei continued, "At this point, I'll add my two cents."

"Byron, don't worry, we're not ungrateful people. As long as you agree to what we ask for, the reward will definitely be substantial, and a premium is not out of the question."

Klevin: "And this matter is also very beneficial to you, even entirely beneficial with no drawbacks."

Andrei was about to speak again when Byron waved him off.

Byron looked at the two men and said, "What is the purpose of your visit to me? Please state it immediately, or else..."

"I'm sorry, but I really have something very important to do, so I have to go now. As for your purpose, we'll have to talk about it next time we meet."

Upon hearing this, both Klevin and Andre swallowed back the words they were about to say.

They could sense that Byron wasn't joking, but serious.

If they dare to utter another word of nonsense, Byron might just walk away.

That would put them in a real bind.
