Wizard: I use my omniscience to interpret the truth.

Chapter 174 The World of the Gods Shines

He now desperately wanted to tell Isolde that his silence earlier wasn't due to the collapse of the sanctity of the potion-making profession after hearing about unspoken rules.

He wasn't as innocent and virtuous as Isolde thought.

She was just feeling sorry for herself for not knowing this unspoken rule when she helped Dylan and the others refine the Spiritual Power Transformation Potion in the Netherworld Crystal Nest.

If he had known about this unspoken rule back then and had been able to secretly keep a portion for himself, he wouldn't have given it all away!

That's an extra bottle of the eight Spirit Power Transformation Potions!

If I could keep one or two portions for myself, wouldn't I be making a fortune?

Faced with such interests, Byron could only say to Dylan that he was not familiar with them.

Even if he secretly kept one or two portions according to the unspoken rules, the remaining potion might still satisfy Dylan and the others.

This also explains why Dylan and the others looked at him with that expression when they saw 25 bottles of potions.

It turns out that everyone else knew this unspoken rule back then, except for me.

This also explains why Dylan and his group left themselves four extra bottles of potion.

He's so stupid, he really is stupid.

But seeing Isolde's earnest and persuasive manner, Byron pondered for a moment and decided not to tell her what he was thinking.

He worried that if Isolde found out, she would be furious and tear him apart, which could even affect future transactions.

So Byron decided to tell a white lie and go with the flow, letting things develop as Isolde had envisioned.

After listening for a while, seeing that Isolde finally stopped talking and looked at him, Byron quickly nodded in agreement.

"Thank you for your comforting words, mentor. Actually, I should have thought of these things a long time ago."

Suppressing the bitterness in his heart, Byron spoke slowly and deliberately.

Upon seeing this, Isolde finally breathed a sigh of relief, secretly thinking with satisfaction that her words of comfort had been quite effective.

After saying this, Byron changed the subject, his face contorted with embarrassment. He then asked Isolde a question.

"Mentor, let bygones be bygones. We should focus more on the present. Let's talk about what's behind the deal, that information from the other world, hehe—"

Upon hearing Byron's words, such a dramatic reversal nearly caused Isolde, who was secretly delighted, to throw out her back.

Isolde looked Byron up and down with suspicion as he watched Byron fidgeting like a fly rubbing its hands.

She now suspected that Byron's earlier demeanor was an act, a ploy to feign helplessness and extract greater benefits from her.

However, Isolde smiled to herself, not caring at all, and even somewhat pleased.

After all, this is the true wizard; only in this way can one go further and ensure that one's investment is not wasted.

So Isolde didn't say much about Byron's performance, but instead answered his question.

"The information about that glorious world of gods has indeed been updated to some extent during this period, and I can tell you all of this."

"After all, you're not just someone who's simply involved like the others; you also have a share, so you should know this information as well."

"Moreover, I need you to come back alive from that world, to take and pass the potion master exam, and this information will greatly increase your chances of survival when you first enter the world of the Radiant Gods."

While listening to Isolde's words, Byron pondered and analyzed them.

The world of radiant gods—this must be the name of that other world. It seems that the Dark Wizard and his group have indeed put a lot of effort into that other world and obtained a great deal of information.

After all, when I first received this news, I used "another world" as a substitute, but now I know their official names.

Actually, there's nothing strange about that, since that world isn't a separate world that's in a period of isolation.

That world already has a world ruler who can conquer other worlds, and has already conquered three other worlds.

This approach will certainly not prevent the leakage of information about one's own world.

While the Wizarding World is infamous and notorious in the Endless World, its power cannot be denied.

Once you have a clear target, and that target is not a closed world, you will definitely be able to find its information.

Upon hearing Isolde's last words, Byron's expression remained unchanged, and he remained calm.

In fact, he had already guessed this in his heart.

Prior to this, although it was unknown what Isolde was exactly, she certainly had some ulterior motives.

After all, he had been studying and living in the academy for so long, and was no longer the rookie he had been when he first entered the academy.

While I may not know all the professors in the college, I do have some understanding of the temperament and character of most of them, as well as the situation of their students.

Most mentors wouldn't treat their students as well as Mentor Isolde did for him.

There is no good or bad without a reason in the world, especially in the wizarding world.

Therefore, Isolde's kindness towards him must mean she has ulterior motives.

After hearing his mentor Isolde reveal his thoughts, Byron was not surprised at all; on the contrary, he felt more at ease.

I just don't understand why Master Isolde is so eager for me to pass the Potions Master exam during my wizard apprenticeship.

Although he didn't know what was hidden in this, Byron was certain of one thing.

If Isolde were to pass the potion master exam during her wizard apprenticeship, it would definitely be beneficial for her, and the benefit would certainly be substantial.

However, Byron didn't have any objection to this. After all, in the wizarding world, if you want to gain something, you have to give something in return. It's impossible to have only gains without any sacrifices.

Furthermore, this was originally a win-win situation.

One receives the privileges and benefits from Isolde's mentor, while Isolde's mentor receives other benefits.

Neither side is at a loss, so why resist or even reject such a win-win situation and do something that harms others and doesn't benefit themselves?

Isn't that something only a complete idiot would do? And Byron, was he a complete idiot?

He's definitely not, so why resist or even refuse?

As Isolde spoke her last words, she observed the changes in Byron's expression. Seeing his calm demeanor, she understood Byron's choice and nodded slightly in approval.

If everyone is willing and happy to participate in this endeavor, the best outcome will naturally be a win-win situation for everyone.
