Bacchus was moved by Midas' pleas and agreed to take away the Golden Touch. He waved his hand and said, "Let your wish be granted." Immediately, Midas felt a warm sensation spreading throughout his body. When he looked down at his hands, he saw that the golden hue had disappeared, and he was back to his normal skin color.

Midas was overwhelmed with joy and thanked Bacchus for taking away his curse. Bacchus replied, "It was my pleasure. May your kingdom prosper and may you find peace within your heart." With a smile, Bacchus turned away and disappeared from sight.
