Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong Chapter 2809: 1540: The Fierce Battle Nears Its End

“Humans, you are merely begging for destruction.”

Inside the opulent banquet hall, watching Leo Ray continue his fearless advance, Hollis II—adorned in his crown—felt a vein throb on his aged forehead. A vast, overwhelming aura surged from his body like a turbulent tide, clearly indicating he had reached the peak of his fury.

Flanking Leo Ray, both Russ and Payton began to edge forward, gradually tightening a pincer movement around him.

While they understood they lacked the raw velocity to match Leo Ray, they knew that if Hollis II could momentarily hinder him, it would provide the ultimate opening for a decisive strike.

“My Lord, how should we proceed?”

Sheila watched the shifting positions of Russ and Payton, her voice laced with unconcealed apprehension.

Following their grueling earlier confrontations, although the pair of adversaries had failed to gain an upper hand and had instead suffered repeated blows, our own reserves were significantly depleted. The state of ease we enjoyed at the start had vanished.

Furthermore, the newly arrived Half-Titan King was at the zenith of his power, wielding an oppressive aura that eclipsed the other two. To face a three-versus-two disadvantage in such an environment was objectively dire.

As the potential for a catastrophic clash mounted, this realization dawned not only on Sheila but also on the entire audience.

Instantly, the giants on their side erupted into cheers, while the human warriors—who had recently been applauding with fervor—now gripped their collars in unconcealed distress.

Sensing the sudden shift in the battlefield’s morale, even Administrator I gazed at Leo Ray with profound concern.

It was widely acknowledged among the six present that Hollis II stood as the most senior and formidable, possessing combat wisdom forged over centuries. Though the Human Emperor was undeniably gifted, his youth remained a limiting factor, suggesting that the current odds were heavily weighted against him.

“It seems the Majesty of the Humans has finally run out of options to turn the tide.”

Just as Administrator I murmured his inner lament, the previously tense hall erupted into bedlam.

With a thunderous bellow, the hotheaded Hollis II surged toward Leo Ray once more, vengeance burning in his eyes.

“Titan Army Breaking Slash!”

As the chant left his lips, the black-etched battle axe in his grip flared with a malevolent light. A wave of force swept out like an entire vanguard of soldiers stampeding through the hall, rocking the very foundations of reality.

“Behold, the ultimate technique of my King! He once used this singular strike to crush an entire cohort of Tier 4 Stone Giants!”

Witnessing the display, the elder Half-Titan warriors erupted into a chorus of triumph.

Even if the Human Emperor possessed agility, escaping such a devastating blow would be impossible!

Observing the scene, Russ and Payton wisely retreated, intending to avoid the periphery of the lethal, sweeping axe-light.

“My Lord, look out!”

Sensing the imminent lethality, Sheila prepared to disregard her own safety to intervene.

“Stand down; this will not harm me.”

Confronted by an attack that trapped everyone in sight, Leo Ray offered a slight nod. He activated a sapphire-hued magic scroll and mentally signaled Sheila: “Stay back!”

The moment the scroll was triggered, a dazzling cerulean radiance enveloped Leo Ray, oscillating in harmony with his natural violet aura.

In a heartbeat, Leo Ray launched himself forward like a ballista bolt, creating sonic booms that shredded the air and whipped up gale-force winds.

Before the onlookers could process the maneuver, Leo Ray had not merely bypassed the devastating surge of blade energy; he had materialized directly before Hollis II.

“Ross!”

With Leo Ray’s command, a flurry of phantasmal shadows swirled around him, striking Hollis II from every conceivable angle.

“Insignificant parlor tricks!”

Though momentarily rattled by Leo Ray’s counter-maneuver, Hollis II maintained his composure. He swept his battle axe in a defensive arc, crafting a barrier of iron, and committed to a ferocious melee with the Emperor.

Energy shockwaves collided repeatedly, growing in intensity like rising storm surges, echoing throughout the banquet hall.

“That Human Emperor successfully bypassed our King’s ultimate maneuver? How is that even possible?!”

The Half-Titan spectators stood frozen, their monolithic frames rigid with shock and disbelief.

In their long history, no warrior, regardless of their prowess in velocity-based cultivation, had ever dodged that strike. Even Bruce, the Prince of Nothingness, had failed to find a window to teleport during similar spars!

For a heartbeat, even our allies were paralyzed, forgetting to offer cheer as they stared in total stupefaction.

Watching from just meters away, Russ and Payton felt their blood run cold. Even as half-step Tier 7 experts, their eyes failed to track the precise movement of Leo Ray.

This grim truth confirmed that during their earlier skirmishes, this inscrutable Human Emperor had surely been holding back, all while they struggled to survive his casual pressure.
