Chapter 433: Results of the first day
The Upperwood District Festival was something that continued whether it was day or night. During this one week period, everyone was burning the midnight oil to continue the festivities even though the sun had already set far off into the horizon.
Those established businesses like the Quench company, the Suite Suits, the Spice Vise, and the Pyramidic Cuisine had their entire building lit up with oil lamps and even some magic lights courtesy of their own magicians under their purview.
That was how they continued to conduct their business well off into the night until the crack of dawn.

Their pathway was already a place where not a lot of people visited. But those that visited them never even gave their wares a second look.
"I think we’re done for tonight," said Otto. "How about you, Michael?"

There were two overhead bulbs that illuminated the whole surroundings, including the desks containing his products as well as the tables reserved for those who ate their food.
