Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong Chapter 2806: 1538: The Escalating Banquet (Part 2)

"My dear sister, your strength has indeed increased, but this is merely raw power. It lacks the true essence of the Thunder element."

Fei’er observed the stunned Kira with a calm gaze and arched a brow, "I trust you now realize the sheer might of human magic, do you not?"

"In my eyes, you are nothing more than a noisy oriole."

As these words left Fei’er’s lips, a silver web of lightning erupted, instantly immobilizing the massive Kira. The moment the electrified net made contact, the energy barrier protecting Kira began to hiss and emit black smoke, clearly suffering under the assault.

"Vile human, let me go at once!"

Despite her bewilderment, Kira refused to submit. She twisted her enormous form, struggling violently. However, the more she fought, the more tightly the bindings constricted, causing her defensive shield to fade further.

Before the onlookers could process the sight of Fei’er subduing Kira with such ease, a blur armored in silver lunged from the flank, longsword drawn. It was Lila, who had only moments ago been sitting composed upon her throne.

Having witnessed Kira's repeated failures, the Stone Giant Clan Chief could no longer sit idly by as a spectator. For the sake of her sister and the pride of the Stone Giant Clan, she had no choice but to intervene.

"Human, do not reproach me for relying on numbers; this is a necessity dictated by desperation!"

Lila’s voice echoed across the hall. Her blade, radiating a spectrum of strange, luminous hues, was mere inches from Fei’er. As she unleashed the strike, Lila’s face regained the composure expected of a high-level expert.

After all, while this purple-robed human was clearly a magus, she herself was a master of mobility and physical prowess. In a one-on-one duel, no matter a mage's magical aptitude, the speed of casting spells could never match the rapid edge of a blade.

"The Clan Leader has joined the fray!"

At this, the previously stunned Stone Giants roared with renewed fervor. The Clan Leader’s swift swordsmanship was renowned throughout the region, ranking among the absolute peak of second-tier powerhouses. Suppressing a mere Grand Magician should have been trivial.

Historically, even Bruce, the Half-Titan Prince of Nothingness, had never gained an edge against her, despite his mastery over teleportation.

Conversely, Loris, Sina, and their allies watched with growing anxiety. Everyone understood that a mage at close quarters against a physical combatant—especially one as fast as Lila—would be at a severe disadvantage.

Just as the crowd anticipated a swift resolution, a resonant "boom" echoed through the hall. Astonishingly, Lila found her strike parried, locked in a stalemate mid-air with Fei’er. Upon closer inspection, the weapon in Fei’er’s hand was no longer a staff, but a slender, razor-sharp, ancient Knight Sword.

"What?! That human isn't just a Thunder Grand Magician?"

The assembly was struck dumb, many rubbing their eyes in disbelief. More shocking still was the realization that by matching Lila’s blade, Fei’er’s physical capabilities were clearly on par with the Clan Leader’s.

"Is it possible that she is a dual cultivator of Magic and Martial arts, much like the Human Emperor himself?"

Standing in the center of the hall, Lila’s fair features were contorted in disbelief. "Who are you exactly?"

"I am merely one of the countless servants loyal to our Majesty," Fei’er replied.

Despite her lithe stature, Fei’er emanated a formidable aura. With a sharp horizontal sweep of her Knight Sword, she forced Lila onto the defensive. Then, with a flicker of movement, Fei’er unleashed a torrential cascade of hundreds of strikes.

"If that is the case, let this Clan Leader see exactly how formidable one of those 'countless' servants truly is!"

Confronted by the storm of steel, Lila’s expression darkened as she raised her weapon to parry. In an instant, the two figures descended into a blur of clashing blades, creating a symphony of metallic rings and energy discharges that rivaled any other conflict in the room.

The sequence unfolded so rapidly that the spectators could only perceive flickering silhouettes. It was clear that both Fei’er and Lila were fighting at a level comparable to Leo Ray, and as they collided, they resembled two intersecting beams of light.

After only a few exchanges, Lila’s apprehension deepened. The power Fei’er wielded far exceeded her initial assessment. It was not merely Fei’er’s blistering speed that troubled her, but the fluid, unpredictable sword techniques she employed—graceful yet devastating, like nothing the Clan Leader had witnessed before.

"This is impossible! How could a human master such profound sword arts?!"

Lila felt her palms numb and her rhythm falter. Since ascending as Clan Leader, she had never faced such an overwhelming adversary.

"Since the warmup has concluded, it is time to fight in earnest."

Fei’er’s comment sent a cold shiver down Lila’s spine. What had just occurred was merely a preamble. The next second, Fei’er’s blade crackled with violent electricity, its intensity skyrocketing into the familiar Dragon Lightning Enchantment she had once imparted to Leo Ray.

"Dragon Thunder Shattering Sky Slash!"

Fei’er called out softly. Her sword surged with a roar like a dragon, funneling thunderous energy skyward as she descended upon Lila.

"No, a Magic Martial Art!"

Staggering, Lila channeled every ounce of her vitality into a desperate block. A thunderous "boom" shook the banquet hall, and though she managed to parry the strike, she was sent recoiling like a discarded doll.

"Impossible! The Clan Leader is actually losing?"

The watching Stone Giants realized with horror that their invincible leader looked utterly outclassed by this humblest of human servants. Before they could breathe, Fei’er vanished, reappearing before the still-recovering Lila.

Suddenly, an electrified spear pierced the air, forcing Fei’er to pivot. Cleaving the spear in two, she noticed a giant shadow looming nearby: Kira had finally shattered her bonds.

"You escaped sooner than I anticipated."

Fei’er arched an eyebrow, her sword humming with kinetic potential. "Since you are all present, let us conclude this battle once and for all."

"How arrogant! We share the unbreakable bond of sisters; do not blame us for lacking hospitality!"

Kira, fresh from her confinement and still singed by the electrical burns, roared with indignation. Meanwhile, Lila consumed several medicinal vials, her aura surging back to its peak. With a combined cry, the Stone Giant sisters launched a coordinated assault, one from the front and one from the rear.

The battlefield erupted into a cacophony of thunder and steel, the resulting energy turbulence tearing through the hall like a gale, signaling the climactic finale of their confrontation. Elsewhere, the duel between Moli and the Prince of Nothingness, Bruce, was also reaching its decisive conclusion.
