Even though the new building was also large, this largeness was different from the other buildings present in the city. Unlike those places, the royal palace actually had just slightly larger regular sized doors. Even the smallest among the giants would not be able to pass through them.

Escora immediately told Elena that to be eligible to live in the royal castle, any giants needed to master the art of shrinking first. As this was a signature racial skill for the royal family of the giants, without having mastery over this, even a proper member of the royal family would have to live in the outer quarters.

There were several giant guards at the outside of the castle but as they could not enter the main castle, they were unable to protect the people living inside. When Elena asked Escora about it, she just smiled and said that she would understand it after entering the castle. So with that curiosity, Elena followed behind Escora.

After they crossed the gates, Elena found herself in the middle of a large hall. Even this empty hall was filled with various expensive looking thing. As Elena was looking around, Escora suddenly attacked her. Elena was able to easily block the punch that Escora threw but she was also very surprised as this attack was very sudden.

But soon Elena found out the reason behind Escora's sudden attack. The suits of armours who were actually golems started moving and tried to take Escora down. Elena had already noticed that the decorative suits of armours were actually golems and now it looked like they were responsible for guarding the inside of the castle.

But the armoured golem present in the hall were quite weak, only B rank. That was also the reason why Elena had thought that they were just decoration and not guards. So when they attacked Escora, all of them were destroyed in a blink of an eye. But even before Escora could say anything to Elena after taking care of the golems attacking her, more golems started appearing in the hall and immediately attacked Escora. There were a few B rank golems among the newly appeared ones but a majority of them were actually A rank and above. As Escora started dealing with them, more and more golems filled the hall. Soon S rank golems also started appearing.

It looked like not only these golems were strong, they also had a communication system with which they could stay connected to each other. The person who was their creator was definitely an expert in this field.

While Elena was nodding her head and was praising the golems in her heart, a lady in a lab coat entered the hall with angry expression on her face. She did not even noticed Elena's presence and went straight toward Escora.

While this lady was walking toward her, Escora was happily exchanging punches with 13 S rank golems. With each exchange, the golems were getting badly broken in various places but still they did not stop and continued exchanging blows with Escora. This made Escora ecstatic and she had a crazy smile on her face. So for that reason, Escora was not paying any attention to her surroundings and failed to notice the approach of this lady in her excited and battle crazed state. But that was actually not Escora's fault because the lady with the lab coat had extremely powerful stealth abilities.

After that lady came behind Escora, she immediately threw a punch toward the back of Escora's head. But before the punch could connect, Escora was able to feel the danger just with her instincts and managed to dodge at the very last moment.

This surprised the lady a little bit. She looked at Escora with a bit of surprise and said -

"Oh, it looked like even outside the city, you have continued your training, Escora. But if you think that little training has made you strong enough to disregard me, then you're wrong."

Saying so, the lady with the lab coat started to attack Escora. Escora was definitely strong but this lady was stronger. The battle was evenly matched for the first few moments but soon it was only Escora who was getting beaten up.

The lady who was giving her the beating was a beautiful and voluptuous lady with dark skin, pink hair and silver horns. Her eyes were deep red in colour and were shining ominously. As for her power level, she was extremely powerful at level 485. Her combat techniques were also extremely well polished. So Escora had no chance of winning against her.

Just as Elena had predicted, after a few minutes, Escora was found lying on her belly on the lab coat lady's lap who was spanking her well shaped butt with quite a bit of force. While this was happening, Escora looked at Elena with completely red face and some tears at the corners of her eyes. Seeing this pleading look from someone Elena considered to be her little sister, she was not able to resist herself from helping her.

So she approached the lady and tapped her on her back. Feeling the sudden touch, she jumped up in an instant and threw a kick toward Elena, which was blocked by her quite easily. That was how this lady with the black coat noticed Elena's presence for the first time.

Elena was not really trying to hide her presence but she had also not tried to show it off either. So in her anger, even with her extremely high level, this lady had failed to notice Elena. From this and from Escora's previous example, Elena guessed that the giants had a major problem in detecting presences when their emotions were running high.

...

After the lady with the lab coat calmed down after getting surprised by Elena, she finally introduced herself. Her name was Nora and she was Escora's aunt and a researcher. She was also the creator of all the golems that could be found in the castle.

These golems were not easy to repair and she would need to work hard for several hours to repair all of them. That was the reason why she got angry when Escora started to destroy them for fun. That was not fun for her at all. While Nora said this, she glared at Escora. Facing the glare, Escora escaped behind Elena and apologised in a soft voice.

While they were having this conversation, Nora was bringing both of them to the area where Escora's mother and sister lived. As they were getting closer to that location, Escora started to get a little nervous. She would be seeing her close family after thousands of years. So Elena found this to be a very natural reaction. So she tried to encourage her by giving her a few reassuring pats on her back.

Getting encouraged by this, Escora started to get her confidence back. Exactly at that time, a sweet voice called out her name with extreme surprise and happiness.

"Escora Neesama."

So who was the owner of this voice ?
