The light mist extended all the way to the pit where Sunbird fell.
When they sensed the death aura coming from Sunbird's Fall, both Greya and Felicia stopped spreading their spells.
Now, their foreheads were covered with sweat, and their energy was also showing signs of exhaustion. If the sunbird's pit was included, they would definitely be sucked dry alive.
Everyone could see that the entire Dark Castle was shrouded in a mist of light.
It was a wonderful experience.
The light mist contained the power of purification and light, while Dark Castle was covered by darkness, darkness, and the chaotic hatred of undead creatures. The two completely different elements clashed against each other.
The winner of this battle was the light mist. In other words, before the darkness could gather, the light mist had already suppressed it.
If the banquet failed, perhaps the darkness would reignite not long after. But at least in this short period of time, it would be very difficult to overturn the glorious scene created by the light fog.
Greya and Felicia exchanged a glance. Both of them looked exhausted, especially Greya. Her lips were pale, and her legs were trembling. Greya's body wasn't the same as Felicia's, so she needed more energy than Felicia.
Fortunately, Greya survived the ordeal.
"Open the lid." Greya spoke to Felicia while panting. What happened next was not for them to decide.
It was up to the guests — the land itself — to see if they were satisfied with the feast.
Felicia nodded and moved her lips. Some of the butterflies in the sky fluttered their wings and flew to the top of the plate.
The butterflies gently flapped their wings and slowly opened the lid.
As the lid opened, golden light began to pour out. Powerful energy gushed out from the lid.
If the previous light mist only contained a portion of the purifying energy, then the current golden light was formed by the purifying energy.
All the Magi on the platform could clearly feel the pressure brought about by the surging energy.
When the lid was completely opened, the main body of the feast — the light orb — slowly rose from the plate into the air. At first, the light orb was the size of a meatball, but as it rose, it grew bigger and bigger.
When the light orb reached its maximum size, it began to fall.
The speed of its descent was extremely fast, and it soon reached the ground. Then, like the setting sun, it gradually merged into the earth.
Everyone, including Felicia and Greya, held their breaths and waited for something to happen.
If one were to compare this banquet with a traditional banquet, the light mist that filled the air could be called the preparation before the meal; the light ball that sunk down was the true beginning of the meal; and what everyone was waiting for was the reaction of the "diners" to this banquet.
Did they accept it? Or were they rejected because they didn't satisfy the guests?
This would determine whether Dark Castle's aura could be changed.
Everyone held their breaths and waited. One minute, two minutes … Even after five minutes, there was still no change. A portion of the Magi's faces were already filled with disappointment.
However, he noticed that Greya and Felicia didn't change their expressions at all.
"Maybe the customers haven't finished their meal yet?" Angor wondered.
Several minutes later, the first change finally occurred. It wasn't Dark Castle, but the light mist created by Greya and Felicia. Just like the light orb, the light orb also sank into the ground.
For some reason, Angor had a strange thought when he saw this.
If the guests were "people", the light orb would be their staple food, while the light mist would be a bowl of soup to quench their thirst. At this moment, the diner had finished the main course and wanted to drink some soup. Thus, the light mist began to sink.
As Angor's imagination ran wild, the light mist slowly disappeared until it was all gone.
Dark Castle returned to its previous state, which was completely dark and gloomy.
What followed was silence. Dark Castle didn't change at all. Even those who didn't live in Dark Castle couldn't help but feel a little uneasy when they were thrown back into the darkness after experiencing the light of day.
"Did it fail?" After a long while, a Magus asked.
Felicia looked away and didn't know what to say. She also believed that the feast had failed. Perhaps the "guests" didn't like the taste.
"Let's wait," Greya suddenly said.
They waited for another ten minutes. Without the light mist, they were once again welcomed by the chilling wind of Dark Castle.
The whistling of the wind made people shudder unconsciously.
"We don't need to wait anymore, right?" A wizard couldn't help but ask again. They were already disappointed, and they couldn't see any hope if they kept waiting.
"Wait." Greya's answer was the same as before.
Just as everyone was getting impatient, Isabelle suddenly raised her head and looked at the dark sky. "Wait, I seem to feel a slight change."
Isabelle's words stunned everyone. They followed her gaze and looked at the sky.
They didn't know when, but the thick clouds began to move away like the ebb and flow of the tide.
When the clouds finally moved away, they finally revealed a crack in the sky, allowing the golden sunlight to shine on the land of Dark Castle.
The crack grew bigger and bigger, allowing more sunlight to enter. The dark world seemed to have disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Even the dust particles floating in the air could be seen clearly by the naked eye.
Clouds began to scatter around Dark Castle. Countless cracks in the sky brought in more sunlight. The whole Dark Castle was in a rare state.
Darkness and light separated the dusk.
Isabelle looked at this scene that she hadn't seen in a long time, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
The other wizards also looked at the scene in awe. They didn't see anything like this in the world of light, but this was the first time they saw something like this happening in Dark Castle.
"Looks like the customer's reward is finally here after such a long meal," Sunders' voice echoed in Angor's ears.
Angor nodded. His blue eyes were illuminated by the falling light, making them even more beautiful.
"Looks like the guests are quite satisfied with the feast." Angor looked down at the golden light in the distance.
Those who heard his voice followed his gaze.
Wisps of black smoke began to rise from the ground. They could even see them with their naked eyes.
The black gas was filled with a sense of resentment, but as the sun shone on the earth, the black gas began to evaporate and drift into the air wherever the sun shone.
Seeing this scene, everyone realized that this banquet was not a failure as they had guessed before.
It was just that the guests didn't react fast enough.
The fact that the black smoke was evaporating told them everything.
The so-called black smoke was actually an old disease that had been accumulating in this land for many years. The Magi present could kill the undead and banish them, but no one could get rid of the lingering effects of the land.
As long as the disease wasn't removed, it would remain forever.
Even if Angor's Prelude to Rebirth could wipe out all the undead creatures in Dark Castle in a short time, as long as the disease remained, there was always a chance that it would come back again.
Thanks to Felicia and Greya's help, Greya was finally able to get rid of the lingering disease that no one else could.
Above their heads, the sun shone brightly.
Clouds of black smoke began to rise from the ground.
At this moment, even a witch with a heart of stone was touched in the softest part of her heart.
"Light shines, hope comes again …" Madam Kimberly looked at this scene with misty eyes, a gentle smile hanging on her lips.
As Sunders said before, this time's event was not too thrilling, nor were there any dramatic ups and downs. After confirming that the customers were satisfied, everything was progressing steadily in the established direction.
The black gas was steaming and the sunlight was shining. There weren't too many waves.
Angor wasn't a member of Dark Castle, so he couldn't feel their excitement. Still, he felt a little moved by the sight.
The thousand-year dream of the past was now opening a new chapter in the light.
No one knew where Dark Castle would go next, or what kind of story would be written in the new chapter. But at the very least, he could be sure that if he didn't make any changes, hope would never appear, and he would only continue to sink.
When the entire Dark Castle was bathed in sunlight, and the dark clouds and lightning serpents were all gone, Greya and Felicia came to them, hand in hand.
Lady Kimberly bowed to them and thanked them sincerely.
The black smoke wasn't completely gone yet, but everyone knew it was only a matter of time.
After witnessing such a shocking scene, no one misunderstood the role of gourmet wizards anymore.
Even Angor had a better understanding of what gourmet wizards meant. They weren't just some random wizards. Their purpose was closer to the essence of the world.
At least, Angor couldn't imagine how he could change the foundation of this land.
The witness banquet ended under the illumination of light.
Dark Castle's aura seemed to be changing, but there were still many problems that needed to be solved. For example, the Sunbird's Fall Pit wasn't just a death zone. It was also filled with dead bodies and undead creatures. There might be something even more terrifying inside. There was still some distance between the Fall Pit and Dark Castle, but there was still a tunnel that led to the castle. Therefore, this was also a problem.
Still, Angor didn't have to worry about it. Isabelle would take care of it one by one.
In the coming days, Dark Castle would probably fall into a long period of change. It might be painful for Dark Castle, but Angor could see hope for the future.
As an outsider, Angor could not get involved in this period of change.
What he needed to do now was to leave.
