Later that day, when the sun was almost dipping toward the horizon...
They all gathered once again around the large magic extraction circle board—courtesy of their head butler and his trusty magic circle wooden-board-cutout stencil.
They all witnessed the "mana gathering" formation circles still glowing with an ethereal light, along with the feathers and the prominent Black Irons placed at the center of each circle.
But... what was interesting about the process was not just the lightshow these circles produced.
What was even more fascinating was... the end-product result of both the feathers and the Black Irons.
The previously pinkish-colored feathers of the Bloodwings... had now turned a completely pure white, almost colorless. They were feathers in their most purified form ever.
Rather than resembling feathers from an avian monster, they looked as if they had come from just regular old geese.
Though... the size of these feathers was still monster-like.
