There was a delicate plate in front of Angor.
There was a cloud of smoke on the plate.
The smoke kept changing. Angor could see different scenes through the smoke. Sometimes, he saw mountains, and sometimes, he saw a palace surrounded by mountains. At this moment, he saw a beautiful girl swinging on a swing.
It was not an exaggeration to say that the smoke was a work of art.
Angor praised in his mind. Without hesitation, he lowered his head and inhaled the smoke into his body.
Strangely, Angor thought the smoke would make him choke, but it did not. When he inhaled the smoke, he suddenly felt a cool sensation rushing into his brain. It was as if he was enlightened, and his old and rigid mind was opened up.
"This is Willson's gas spirit. It can keep you awake for a long time."
Sunders' voice reached his ears while Angor was still immersed in the smoke.
"There are at least a hundred different gases mixed in this dish, which is enough to reach Willson's level. You're worthy of being called the best gourmet wizard in the southern wizardry region. "
Greya, who was sitting in front of Angor, chuckled lazily. "It's an honor to be praised by Mister Phantom. But you didn't say this when I opened my restaurant. Is it because you feel guilty about eating my meal for free? "
Sunders gave Greya a disdainful glance but did not say anything.
Greya looked at Angor again. "I prepared this banquet to celebrate your breakthrough. Too bad I spent all the ingredients on the 'Feast of Purification'. It's a bit shabby."
"As far as I'm concerned, this is the best meal I've ever had in years."
Greya responded with a teasing tone. But Angor's compliment made Greya smile like a blooming flower.
Angor was not flattering Greya though. He barely had a proper meal all these years. If he was hungry, he would eat Mozi Meat to fill his stomach. Mozi Meat was tasteless, and it tasted like wax if he ate it for a long time. During his time in Padt Manor, Leon forced him to eat at the dining hall every day. Greya's food tasted good, but it was nothing compared to Greya's Gluttony.
Apart from Willson's gas sprite, there were also several plates in front of him, all of which were filled with strange-looking food.
He tasted them all and enjoyed the delicious food on his tongue.
The food did not only bring him physical sensations, but it also brought him great joy.
Plus, Toby's condition was getting better. The heavy burden on his mind was finally lifted, which made him feel much better.
Thinking about Toby, he took the bird out of his pocket and placed it on the table.
Toby was still sleeping soundly, but as it breathed in and out, Willson's gaseous sprite also entered its nose. Even in his dreams, Toby let out a comfortable gurgle.
"How's Toby doing?" Greya looked at Toby curiously.
Greya didn't have time to check on Toby's condition since she was busy preparing the food. Now she finally had the chance to ask.
Angor briefly explained what happened in Froste's room. Since the Box of Reincarnation was extremely dangerous, Angor omitted the part about Zorn. He only said that Froste received some kind of message and left Dark Castle.
Greya sighed in relief. "You only managed to suppress your resentment, but it's still better than failing the tribulation."
Resentment was triggered by the Curse of Disaster, so it was normal for Toby to fail since he wasn't prepared for it at all. Toby's resentment was still there, but at least he had enough time to prepare for the next tribulation. Even if the next tribulation would be worse, it wasn't completely unsolvable.
Greya had never met Froste before, so she only focused on Toby's condition. Sunders, on the other hand, was different. The first thing that came to his mind after hearing Angor's words was the "deal" itself.
Why was his condition merely a groundless favor?
Or rather, why would a legendary being like Angor care about such a favor? What was it about Angor that caught Froste's attention?
Sunders was very curious about Froste, but he couldn't ask Angor directly since he was still in Dark Castle. Now that he was gone, he decided to ask Angor in private.
As he pondered, they heard some squeaking noises coming from the distance.
Everyone looked at the source of the noise and saw Felicia pushing open a door and walking out of her private winery. She was holding a tray in her hand. The tray was covered with a cover, but from the gap under the cover, a faint blue light could be seen.
"Hey, Greya, what's making you so happy?" Felicia didn't know what was going on because she was making drinks for the banquet.
Greya's eyes narrowed into slits. "I thought this banquet was meant to celebrate Angor's breakthrough. But now, it seems that there is one more reason to hold a banquet. "
Felicia walked over and opened the lid of the tray. A dense blue light was released instantly.
As the light covered the entire hall, Angor heard the sound of ocean waves, the unique veins of the ocean, and the rich aroma of coconuts.
Then, he saw illusions appearing in front of his eyes.
Bright sunlight, golden beaches, white coconuts, and flying seabirds … Wait … Angor rubbed his eyes. This wasn't an illusion.
At this moment, Felicia asked, "Another reason for the banquet? What is it? "
Before Greya could answer, Felicia heard some rustling noises coming from the tray. She turned around and saw a pair of red, beady eyes.
The beady eyes were filled with innocence. However, the movements of its mouth were not ambiguous at all. With a whooshing sound, one of the wine cups on the tray was completely empty.
Felicia's eyelids twitched.
Greya didn't need to answer. She already knew what Greya meant by the other reason.
"Someone tell me when did this sneaky bird wake up?!"
Yes, it was Toby who was drinking from the tray with an innocent look on his face.
Perhaps frightened by Felicia's roar, Toby shuddered and turned around without hesitation. He flapped his wings, trying to find someone who could protect him.
Toby looked at Angor, then at Greya.
Who should he choose?
Even Angor wanted to know who Toby would choose at this moment. But no one knew the answer in the end. As soon as Toby tried to fly away, his eyes went blank.
Then he fell from the sky.
Angor used Hand of Spell just in time to catch Toby.
When he placed Toby on the table, everyone noticed that the bird's eyes, which were covered in gray feathers, were dyed red.
There was a small hole at the end of Toby's beak, which was bubbling with the smell of alcohol.
"Um, it looks like it's drunk?" Angor hesitated.
"It doesn't look like it. It's definitely drunk." Felicia sneered. "My Coconut Shell Ocean is not fruit juice. I don't think he'll wake up if he doesn't sleep for at least three days! "
Angor chuckled. He was imagining a touching reunion with Toby when he woke up. But as it turned out, Toby was only woken up by a glass of wine. He drank a glass of wine and passed out again.
Felicia gave Toby a cold glare and looked at Greya. "So this thief is another reason for you to hold a dinner party?"
Greya's lips twitched. "Yes, he was."
"I hope he's not."
Felicia didn't like Toby's attitude, but she still gave Greya, Sunders, and Angor each a glass of wine. As for Greya's glass, she placed it in front of Angor, which was supposed to be Toby's.
This made Greya and Angor feel a little embarrassed.
"Although I don't really like Toby, that damn wine thief, it's still a good thing that he's awake. I'll give him that glass of wine as a gift, "Felicia said.
