Byron now realized he had indeed wronged Teris.
Previously, when they eliminated those controlled Molten Giants, their two families had each contributed half the effort, yet they each received only a third of the reward. Now, having each independently taken down a Governor, their share of the spoils had merely increased to a paltry half. This indicated that not only had they both been deceived, but it also seemed that in this trial, no matter who killed a Descendant of the Sun God, a third party would always get a slice of the pie. Ultimately, as long as a Descendant of the Sun God died, that other party always retained a share of the contribution.
Even though Byron had now taken down a Prince, eradicating not only the problem but also its source, the Decryption Rate of "[Hidden: The Ominous Clouds over the Succession of the Sun Empire Throne, Historical Influence 30]" remained stuck at 70%, without budging an inch.
