As the days went by, Louise found herself still struggling to deal with her increased size within her already scaled up living abode. When she stood up, her head would strike the ceiling and the only outfit that she had fit her was still the bedsheet that she had used as a makeshift toga.

She went over to her wardrobe and pulled out one of outfits that she had favoured so much. It was the one that was yellow in colour and she thought that she had looked very cute in it. But when she held it against her body, there was not a chance that it would be able to fit her now. In fact, she would probably struggle to get it over her head. This made her sigh for a moment as she had really like the outfit.

Louise even got out the green pair of flip flops that she had worn quite often. Unfortunately, when she slipped her foot into it, it was clear that it was far too big for the footwear. The sole of the flip flop only covered around a third of the overall surface of her foot. Because of this, she was forced to remove it and put it down at one side.

There was a sigh that escaped her lips since although new clothes were being made for her, tit would take some time for their manufacturing to be completed. Until then, she was stuck wearing her toga and not even being able to wear any shoes. Much to her dismay as all she could do was make her way into the kitchen and try to grab something to eat.

This action only caused more dismay as she could see that the kitchen was mostly devoid of food. As had been expected, her appetite had grown along with her size and feeding her now became a difficult task. Even when she tried to eat less than she would have, there was still not enough food for her. Her annoyance was increasing over the situation but she remained as calm as she could.

Even in this environment, Louise knew that she needed to be as calm as possible. The last thing she wanted was to actually become intimidating to the people around her. Such a thing was against her nature but her sheer size made it a likely occurrence. Even if it was completely unintentional.

Already on the internet, she had seen how word about her increase in size was spreading and even some people had caught a video of when her hand regenerated. Of course, there were some people who thought that it was simply the photos and footage being manipulated. She had already seen such images in the past that depicted her being larger than a mountain or as small as an ant.

Normally, such images had been nothing but a mere moment of amusement for her. But this time, she had genuine fear that she could actually grow to that size. The power that she could feel inside of her was increasing and it scared her. The glow of her eyes hadn't faded away at all and if anything, their intensity had only increased.

One side effect that she had discovered was that at night, her eyes would light the environment around her up enough for her to actually see. It was definitely helpful when she woke up in the morning and had to navigate through her home. Although for others, whenever she shut her eyes. They could still see the faint red glow of her eyes behind her eyelids.

Eventually, Louise found herself doing something that she hoped would relax her. This included sitting in what seemed to be a forested area that was outside of the city. It was definitely an area that was of outstanding beauty.

Just being around nature seemed to calm her down as she took a deep breath and simply allowed herself to enjoy the scenery. One thing that she hadn't noticed was that there were several birds flying around her. However, at her size they were no bigger than insects and a few of them even landed on her shoulders.

There was also a cool breeze as Louise continued to look at the forest that stretched out in front of her. She could also spot a lake that was a few miles away and she was tempted to simply step over there and have a swim. The only problem was that she thought that she was too big for such a thing. It was likely that the waterline wouldn't even reach her knees. This would make it very difficult for her to swim in. Much to her dismay as the length might have been an issue as well.

The French Giantess didn't notice that the birds suddenly flew away from her as she began to glow again. However, it only took her a few seconds for her to notice the glowing as well and with a small amount of worry. She got up to her feet and then looked at her hand. The glow was still there and she could see it getting brighter and then dimmer.

There was still a stunned silence to Louise as she could see the aura around her that was still red in colour. A part of her was still intimidated by it, but there was also a small amount of curiosity within her over it. Whatever the energy within her was, it wasn't something that caused destruction. Much like herself, it seemed as even though it looked as though it would cause destruction, it instead did nothing of the sorts.

This did make her a little curious as she thought about what she might be capable of. Although it had been quite worrying to watch, she had seen the video of her fight with the giant robot that had taken place on Canada Day. Watching the aura around her grow to the intensity of it all around her. She couldn't help but be amazed by what she had seen and the aura that her body generated.

Louise took another deep breath and began to concentrate. All other thoughts simply left her mind as she focused on what was inside of her. She felt as if she was grabbing it with an invisible hand and she continued to concentrate as she pulled the energy to the surface. Something that she thought was somewhat terrifying and yet also something that she simply had to do.

Before she knew it, there was a huge aura of energy around her. Much like the one that had been there when she had fought against the giant robot. It was almost like she was standing in the middle of fire and yet nothing around her was burning. Last time when she had activated this aura, she had been in a life and death situation where the lives of thousands were on the line. This time however was completely different however as she was still calm and there were no threats around her.

The aura seemed to be violent and was continuing to radiate from her body. Her eyes were glowing even brighter than usual, but this was something that Louise couldn't see from her point of view. Instead she just continued to radiate the energy but she simply was able to switch it off almost like a light.

Louise was able to stop the aura in an instant and everything went back to normal so to speak. This was something that she was amazed with and for the next few minutes. She would generate the aura and then stop. It was as though the moment when it had happened for the first time was the trigger event. But afterwards she could enter and exit this state with just a thought.

"Incroyable," said Louise quietly to herself as she looked at her hand once again. However, it was when she looked her feet that she noticed something that was unusual. It wasn't her feet themselves that was the abnormal part. Rather it was what had begun to grow around it. The foliage that had been in her immediate vicinity had grown.

Rather than their size merely increasing, it was more like it they had grown naturally. More overgrown than anything else as she looked around and could see a tree only a few metres away from where she was standing. There was something within it that she knew had definitely not been there when she had arrived.

Carefully, she crouched down to the ground and looked at the tree. Normally all that she could see was greenery within it but this time, it was definitely filled with something that was small and red. Although it had been very difficult for her, she was able to grab onto one and pick it from the tree.

This red object that was on her fingertip and a little hard for her to see. The fact that she hadn't crushed it while she was trying to pick it. But as she looked at it, she began to tell what the thing actually was. What she was holding was an entire fruit that hadn't been on the tree just a few minutes ago.

Louise once again found himself in a stunned silence as she even thought that it was something that was amazing. But she could see it glowing with the same aura that she had generated from her body. This did startle her for the moment and it did cause her to drop it all the way down to the ground.

Rather than smashing when it struck the ground, the fruit landed without a single scratch on it. Not just that, but it also began to bury itself into the ground and she could only watch as this happened. It was something that she thought was very bizarre but what happened next was entirely different.

Although it was hard for Louise to see at first, she saw what looked to be a small twig beginning to sprout up from the ground. It was right over where the fruit had buried itself and she could see that it was glowing red. There was still nothing that she could say as she saw the twig continuing to grow.

Before long, it wasn't a mere stick and was developing into a tree that was beginning to produce leaves. It continued to grow and develop with every passing moment and eventually it grew as large as the tree that was right next to it. By then it had stopped growing but it began to produce fruit.

By the end of it, the new tree was fully grown and simply just like the parent tree. It had gone through years and years of development in a matter of minutes. All thanks to the power that was growing within Louise that was a mystery to everyone in her life.
