The people in the palace burst into laughter as smiles appeared on everyone's faces once those words rang through the air.
The tense atmosphere loosened in the blink of an eye.
Yvette's grin was so big it nearly split her face open. She turned to Dax and spoke apologetically. "I'm so sorry for what I did, Brother Dax. If someone didn't control me, I would never have done something so treacherous. I promise you—nothing like that will ever happen again."
As she spoke, Yvette could not help but cast another glance around her. "All of you have suffered because of me. I will prepare a feast to make up for all of you."
Yvette smiled, but her gaze was still laced with worry.
The Godly Region had seized Darryl, and she did not know how he was doing. However, one thing was for sure—something had happened to the fiend race. Yvette had sensed that after she regained control over her senses. That could be an advantage to the Godly Region and the Nine Mainland.
"Very well, we'll have a feast, then!"
"Well, what else is there left to say when Her Majesty has made such a declaration?"
Everyone in the room cheered and clapped.
……
Meanwhile, in the Ghost World.
Ileana stood at the gates of the Underworld Main Hall and stared at the changes in the skies. Her exquisite features seemed serious.
Behind Ileana, the other underworld envoys looked just as solemn.
Whew!
Finally, Ileana snapped back to her senses. She said, "No small matter must have caused such a phenomenon." Even though she was in the Ghost World and had not heard about what had happened in the Godly Region, Ileana sensed that the shift in the skies brought a strong wave of sinister energy.
She knew that it was a sign that the supreme leader of the fiend race had fallen.
If that were the case, the fiend race's spirits would be irreversibly damaged, and they would not be able to regain their previous splendor regardless of how hard they tried. However, Ileana had an uneasy feeling about the entire ordeal, like something terrible was about to happen.
At the thought, Ileana said, "Strengthen the defense patrol team in the Ghost World. Report to me at once if they discover any intruders."
"Yes!"
The underworld envoys behind her called out in acknowledgment.
