Dionysus agreed. He was not happy with the king's request. But King Midas was full of joy! He could not wait to try his new power! He went outside and touched an oak tree. Immediately, the whole tree turned to gold! King Midas laughed happily. What a wonderful power! He would be the richest person in the universe!
