Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong

Chapter 2011: Chapter 1129: Persuasion and Doubts

Although Diana’s astonished expression flashed briefly across her fair face, it was still completely captured by Leo Ray’s gaze.

Leo Ray gave a faint smile and said, “It seems Your Excellency the Vice President is not unfamiliar with this name.”

However, Diana, who had regained her composure, did not follow up on Leo Ray’s words but instead shifted the topic, saying, “Your Royal Highness the Holy Lion, what exactly are you trying to say?”

“To be frank, Your Excellency the Vice President, I’ve always had some disputes with the Black Abyss Brotherhood, which eventually escalated to a point of no return.”

Leo Ray’s gaze remained on Diana’s exquisite face as he continued, “And at this critical moment, the Temple of Light intervened. Doesn’t Your Excellency find that a bit odd?”

“Your Highness, what’s so strange about that?”

Before Diana could respond, Durant crossed his arms and spoke first, “I’ve also heard of the actions of the Black Abyss Brotherhood a few times. Each one is notorious for its cruelty and atrocity. The Temple of Light, which takes eradicating evil as its mission, stepping in to judge such a source of sin, isn’t this a normal thing?”

“It seems Your Excellency the Vice President has misunderstood my meaning.”

Leo Ray’s smile gradually faded, and he said solemnly, “What I mean is that the Temple of Light is on the side of the Black Abyss Brotherhood.”

“What? How is that possible?!”

Upon hearing this, not only Durant but also several other mercenary representatives displayed expressions of disbelief, glancing at each other.

Just as Durant had mentioned, they indeed had heard of the mysterious Black Abyss Brotherhood, who wore white masks and were known for their ruthless ways, but that’s about it. They hadn’t delved deeper into it.

After all, although the Black Abyss Brotherhood committed various atrocities, they had never had a direct conflict with the Mercenary Guild and even deliberately avoided them.

Therefore, without explicit orders from the upper echelons of the Mercenary Guild, they naturally wouldn’t provoke them.

Directly opposite Durant and the others, Leo Ray could see that these guys appeared utterly clueless, without much value in communication. His gaze shifted back to Diana.

Only she, with starry eyes, was quietly flickering, clearly indicating she knew something.

After a moment, Diana tightly knitted her brows and spoke, “Your Royal Highness the Holy Lion, do you mean there’s a hidden connection between the Temple of Light and the Black Abyss Brotherhood? Are they even allies?”

“Exactly, or perhaps the two are essentially one, with one operating in the open and the other in secret.”

Leo Ray shrugged and delivered these shocking words.

Sure enough, upon hearing Leo Ray’s words, a storm erupted among the mercenary representatives.

Although these shrewd mercenary management figures didn’t express themselves too obviously, their eyes were filled with undeniable shock.

After all, the Temple of Light has always been regarded as standing at the forefront of fighting evil, safeguarding the peace of the Human World, with countless followers across various nations. If it truly has fallen, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Among the shocked mercenaries, only Diana in the central position appeared relatively calm, but the stars in her eyes also flickered with a hint of astonished brilliance.

After a while, Diana finally calmed her mind, speaking in a deep voice, “Your Royal Highness the Holy Lion, you must be responsible for your words. You are accusing an organization that is considered a Guardian God of the Human World. Have you thought about the consequences of doing this? You are desecrating the sacrifices made by countless strong ones of the Temple of Light over thousands of years!”

“If Your Highness thinks that a few baseless words can make my Mercenary Guild distance itself from the Temple of Light, then you’re gravely mistaken.”

Diana’s voice grew increasingly low, as she continued, “What Your Highness is doing will only make my Mercenary Guild stand more firmly on the side of the Temple of Light.”

As Diana finished speaking, an indistinct pressure began to spread throughout the royal meeting hall, causing the temperature to seemingly drop considerably.

“Of course, I know that, provided that what I said earlier was indeed nonsense.”

Facing her authority, Leo Ray still maintained a faint smile and continued, “But if what I said is true, will the Mercenary Guild still want to associate with the Temple of Light?”

“For thousands of years, my Mercenary Guild has always taken it as their duty to protect the Human World. Regardless of who the opponent is, as long as they threaten the peace of the Human World, there will be no leniency.”

Diana’s words were resolute before she frowned again and added, “Your Royal Highness the Holy Lion, since you are so confident in your view, please present your evidence.”

Speaking to this point, Diana’s brows furrowed even tighter, and she added, “If Your Royal Highness the Holy Lion cannot prove any of this, don’t blame me for turning my back on you.”

“Your Excellency the Vice President is right. If Your Royal Highness the Holy Lion is simply making random claims, then there’s nothing more to discuss between us.”

Durant also wore a serious expression as he echoed her sentiments.

Sensing that the atmosphere had almost dropped to freezing point, our people held their breath, focusing their gaze on Leo Ray.

Our subordinates clearly understood that, although we could fully ascertain that the mastermind behind the Black Abyss Brotherhood is indeed the Temple of Light, there is no substantial evidence.
