Wizard: I use my omniscience to interpret the truth.

After learning about the basic meditation method, Byron immediately asked the All-Knowing Eye to transmit "A Brief History of Wizards" and "Basic Rules of Wizarding" to him.

Both books are ordinary reading materials, containing no mystical knowledge, but they helped Byron understand the wizarding world.

As the title suggests, "A Brief History of Wizards" is a book that simply tells the history of wizards.

It tells the story of the origin, development, core concepts, relationship between wizards and mortal kingdoms, and the current historical context of wizards.

The "Basic Rules of Wizardry" outlines the rules and safety regulations among wizards, such as the principle of equivalent exchange...

After Byron learned all this, he leaned back in his chair and looked out the window.

At this moment, the view outside the window is a hazy yellow, the sun is setting in the west, as if a great fire is burning.

Upon seeing this, Byron also recalled his promise to Eliza and Grey.

Time is almost up.

With this thought in mind, Byron once again invoked the All-Seeing Eye: "All-Seeing Eye, begin analyzing the basic meditation runes."

[Analysis begins... Estimated time: 3 hours 32 minutes 23 seconds.]

As the analysis of the All-Knowing Eye ran silently in the background, it did little to affect Byron's actions, except for making him feel a slight mental fatigue.

This way, we can save some time, so why not?

After closing the door, Byron successfully arrived at the restaurant following the instructions on the wall.

The entire restaurant is under a huge dome, with dozens of luminous crystals emitting a cold light suspended in the air.

It was a buffet style, where you helped yourself to the food. The long mahogany tables were filled with roasted meats that smelled of strange spices, deep-sea fish with bizarre yet extremely tempting colors, and all sorts of brightly colored berries that I couldn't name.

Although they had only been on board for half a day, the people in the restaurant had already clearly divided themselves into groups based on class and seniority.

As Byron entered the restaurant, he ignored the stares directed at him and greeted Gray and Eliza with smiles.

Byron plopped down next to Gray and asked with a laugh, "How long have you been here?"

Gray: "I was hungry, so I arrived first, and Eliza came shortly after me."

"We were just wondering how long it would take you to get there?"

"Why don't you take a guess, between me and Eliza, who's more accurate?"

Gray looked at Byron with a wicked grin and raised an eyebrow at Eliza.

Byron glanced at him sideways and laughed: "Then you guess, and I'll guess or not."

Upon hearing this, Gray's smile instantly froze on his face, and he muttered, "You and Eliza are so alike, both so boring and uninteresting."

Seeing Gray's sullen expression, Byron and Eliza both laughed, and Gray laughed along with them.

The three people's smiles attracted the attention of other people in the restaurant.

However, upon seeing Eliza, who possessed a lower-level fourth-grade aptitude, and Byron, who possessed a top-level third-grade aptitude, they all withdrew their gazes.

At this moment, they truly understood the meaning of qualifications and the status gap that qualifications bring.

Such a huge gap can easily deter people from even trying.

The laughter stopped, and Byron stood up again: "I haven't eaten all day, I'll go get something to eat first, you guys chat."

Before he could finish speaking, Gray hurriedly stood up as well: "I haven't eaten yet either, and Eliza hasn't eaten yet, let's all go together."

Eliza stood up as well, smiling and nodding. "I'm a little hungry too."

Byron didn't care.

The three of them took some food from the table, which was set with various dishes, and poured themselves a drink of unknown origin before returning to their original table.

At first, none of the three spoke; they were all focused on the food laid out in front of them.

Having not eaten all day and expending so much energy, Byron almost fainted from hunger.

Especially upon entering the restaurant and smelling the aroma of the food, my stomach started rumbling loudly.

After filling his stomach slightly, Byron slowed down his movements and began to move slowly and deliberately.

Since Gray had already eaten some, he was the first to stop using his knife and fork.

He looked around for a moment before turning to the two of them, lowering his voice and speaking mysteriously.

"Byron, Eliza, do you know what the surprise the wizard Clevin was talking about is? I've found it, hehe..."

Upon hearing this, the two people who were initially drawn by Gray's actions were also taken aback and didn't react.

Seeing their reaction, Gray continued, "Hehe, if you're willing to praise me properly, I'll tell you this secret, how about that? This..."

But before Grey could finish speaking, Byron and Eliza both burst out laughing.

Gray asked, puzzled, "What do you two mean by this? Why are you both laughing?"

Byron laughed and said, "You mean the surprise that the wizard Clevin mentioned, right?"

"Yes."

"You noticed there were three books, right?"

"Wait... no, you found Byron too?"

Gray nodded instinctively, but quickly realized what he meant and looked at Byron with a shocked expression.

Eliza, giggling, chimed in, "I found them too! They were hidden inside the bookshelf, right?"

Upon hearing this, Gray sighed repeatedly, "Sigh, I thought I could show off in front of you guys with this, what a waste!"

Seeing this, Byron didn't continue to attack Gray, but instead looked at Eliza and changed the subject:

"Eliza, although we are all nobles, our heritage is far inferior to that of your family." Byron's voice was low, but his words were clear.

"So, if you don't know anything about the real wizarding world... do you know something about it?"

Faced with Byron's blunt question, Eliza nodded quite frankly.

"As you should know, every now and then a group of people go to the wizarding academy, and one of my family's ancestors survived in the academy, became a wizard, and returned once."

"And he did leave some information behind."

Upon hearing this, Gray, who had been lying there like a dead dog, became excited again.

"Eliza, can you tell us? I'd like to..."

At this point, Gray suddenly stopped, realizing that he didn't seem to have anything to exchange.

But to everyone's surprise, Eliza just smiled and waved her hand.

"I do know some intelligence, and I'm willing to share it without you having to pay anything in return."

"After all, this information isn't exactly a secret. You'll find out when you get to the academy. Besides, aren't we companions?"

Upon hearing this, Gray exclaimed excitedly, "Eliza, you're so kind! Thank you so much!"

Byron smiled gratefully and thanked Eliza.

But in his heart, he became secretly wary.

He understood that there is no such thing as a free lunch in the world; behind every seemingly free gift, there is already a price tag attached.

However, Byron did not refuse, since he needed the intelligence at the moment.

As for what happens later, if Eliza wants to ask for payment, he will pay her according to the principle of equivalent exchange. If she asks for more, then he'll be sorry.

However, there is another possibility: Eliza might genuinely be willing to teach for free out of consideration for her companion.

However, rather than believing that possibility, it's better to believe that Eliza has other motives.

As for others, Byron always assumed the worst possible interpretation.

Eliza took a graceful sip of her drink and then immediately stood up.

Seeing the two looking at her, she smiled mischievously and said, "Are you going to listen to me here?"

As she spoke, her gaze swept over several apprentices around her who were trying to eavesdrop.

Upon hearing this, the two realized that there were indeed too many people talking here.

After a discussion, they decided to go to a secluded spot on the deck to give the presentation.

After all, it wouldn't be appropriate to go to anyone's room.
