The ethereal man's words confirmed one of the silent hypotheses of the trio.
The palace was the creation of an existence that had reached the divine ranks!
The title "Divine" wasn't something that was given randomly, and spirit automatons wouldn't use it so casually.
Also, the palace could defend against rank 6 lightning bolts, there weren't many existences that could build something capable of that feat.
Noah and the elders bowed to answer the polite gesture of the ethereal man.
They were still a bit tense, the automaton was capable of controlling four rank 6 puppets after all.
Yet, his courtesy made them slightly relax.
"Please, come inside. It has been too long since I had guests."
The ethereal man waved his hand to point at one of the tall, wooden doors that stood at the base of the structure.
Noah and Flying Demon immediately began to descend toward the entrance, but Dreaming Demon decided to near the automaton while wearing a smile that radiated friendly feelings.
