Chapter 1180: Chapter 713: The End of the Dream and the Return of the Powerhouse (Part 3)_2 Chapter 1180: Chapter 713: The End of the Dream and the Return of the Powerhouse (Part 3)_2 “Only in this way can the sacrifices made by your countless ancestors regain their meaning and not become an outright joke!”
Upon hearing Leo Ray’s words, Taylor’s depressed expression finally showed some movement.
He opened his mouth as if to say something, but soon showed a pained expression, tightly gripping his own head and groaning continuously.
“Mr. Lane, the Illusion Realm is still affecting Taylor’s thoughts!”
Not far away, Brocade Winthrop’s similarly pained and clear voice reached Leo Ray’s ears.
Looking in the direction of the voice, Leo Ray noticed:
The light blue energy chains binding Brocade Winthrop to Diluns were becoming increasingly ethereal, while the grandiose aura erupting from Diluns was growing stronger, seemingly about to break Brocade Winthrop’s blockade at any moment.
With a pale face, Brocade Winthrop clenched his silver teeth and squeezed out another sentence: “Mr. Lane, put more effort, Taylor’s mind has already eased a bit, I can still hold on for a while…”
However, his extremely strong expression already showed signs of exhaustion.
Seeing this, Leo Ray nodded at Brocade Winthrop, his face becoming increasingly serious.
It was easy to imagine that if Taylor had not yet awakened and Diluns broke free of Brocade Winthrop’s shackles, the outcome would undoubtedly be unthinkable.
In other words, the time left for himself was extremely limited.
However, the good news was that after his previous series of remarks, Taylor’s confusion had improved compared to the beginning.
With this in mind, Leo Ray turned back to the pained and burly man, and said solemnly, “Taylor, you once said that your father’s creed is ‘no matter how powerful the enemy, they will eventually be defeated,’ right?”
It is said that the one who ties the bell must also be the one to untie it. From the previous Illusion Realm, it was not difficult to see:
Diluns had utilized this fact to manipulate the argument, leading to the complete collapse of Taylor’s psychological defense.
After all, Taylor’s father, the dragon-slaying hero, was the person Taylor respected and admired the most. Denying Taylor’s father was indeed equivalent to denying everything about Taylor.
If he could also use this fact to make Taylor understand that his father was not as Diluns depicted but a genuine hero, perhaps everything could be resolved.
“Lord, you’re right.”
Hearing Leo Ray’s call, Taylor mustered his strength, straightened his burly body, and nodded with difficulty: “But my father never realized this creed until his death. Perhaps, as Diluns said, it was just self-comfort for a loser, meaningless.”
“Taylor, you’re wrong. It is meaningful because it contains unparalleled courage and a yearning for the future. It’s the most precious treasure for everyone.”
Facing Diluns, who could break free of his shackles at any moment, Leo Ray was as anxious as ants on a hot pot, but his face remained calm, smiling at the burly man before him.
“Taylor, think about it carefully, even though your father went from a respected Guardian to a target of public criticism, he still upheld his Guardian duties as always. How many people can maintain such unwavering belief after going through so many trials?”
“For the glory of the Guardian family, so that the countless ancestors’ blood-soaked battles weren’t in vain, your father has been fighting every moment against the ‘powerful enemies’ in his creed. The enemy he’s been fighting isn’t someone else, but himself.”
“It’s this constant struggle to break through himself that allows your father to keep moving forward resolutely, showing everyone with his actions that even though the family has declined and the people’s eyes are clouded, he hasn’t tarnished the family crest, nor let the ancestors’ teachings gather dust.”
“He understands that he is a Guardian, fighting for the kingdom and the people, even if the kingdom has lost its former glory.”
Leo Ray’s voice was gentle, and his eyes were full of vigor: “Therefore, your father has defeated himself countless times in adversity. How can he be considered a loser? On the contrary, he is an admirable victor who deserves the respect of everyone, including me.”
“So that’s how it is…”
Taylor hesitated, the pained expression on his face gradually easing. He then asked, “But if he couldn’t change anything alone, why would he go to such lengths?”
“Simple, because your father believed in hope, in the moment when dawn would come even in the darkest night.”Leo Ray nodded to Taylor and said solemnly, “At the same time, your father is also telling you with his actions that you should never give up easily in any situation, just like he has always persisted.”
Pausing for a moment, Leo Ray continued to question, “Taylor, your father has never given up in so many desperate situations, and you’ve only experienced one. Do you really want to give up so easily? Would you disappoint your father’s expectations of you?”
“No, I will never give up! I will never fail my father’s expectations!”
With a roar, Taylor straightened up his pain-wracked, curled body.
However, just a moment later, as the sound of chains breaking rang out, Taylor’s resolute expression twisted in agony, and he fell heavily to the ground.
At the same time, a vast wave of energy surged out, generating strong gales that involuntarily left Leo Ray momentarily unbalanced.
Startled, Leo Ray looked back and saw…
Brocade Winthrop had collapsed, his face pale, while Diluns slowly approached with a longsword in hand.
Killing intent surrounded Diluns, his green eyes flashing with a crimson glow. Judging from his overwhelming aura, he had successfully advanced to the Tier 5 Level.
“I told you earlier that all your efforts would be futile.”
With a mocking tone, Diluns pointed the tip of his sword at Leo Ray’s throat, coldly saying, “Let’s start with you then.”
As soon as his words fell, Diluns transformed into a phantom, hurtling towards Leo Ray in an instant.
This all happened in the blink of an eye, and Leo Ray didn’t even have time to activate the Magical Scroll. The fierce sword edge, brimming with murderous intent, was just a step away!
“If you want to attack Lord, you must first ask whether my sword agrees or not!”
At this critical moment, a roar of anger erupted, and an imposing figure stood protectively in front of Leo Ray, as swift as thunder and wind.
Boom!
With a deafening blast, opposing waves of energy collided, and the furious Diluns was sent flying away.
“Brilliant Sky-shattering Slash!”
With an explosive shout, the towering figure stood in front of Leo Ray and immediately pursued Diluns.
The double-handed giant sword in his grasp cleaved a half-moon arc, powerful enough to split the sky, and cut the unprepared Diluns into two in midair.
As Diluns’ broken body turned into specks of blue energy.
The imposing figure landed gracefully and reappeared in front of a still-reeling Leo Ray.
Needless to say, it was none other than Taylor, who had completely broken free from the Dream Devourer Realm.
“I’m sorry, Lord, for frightening you,” Taylor, now back in his usual attire, knelt down on one knee and said, “It’s all my fault for being careless and falling into the enemy’s illusion trap.”
At this point, a touch of uncontrollable gratitude surfaced on Taylor’s rough face, as he added, “Thank you, Lord, for risking your own safety to save me from the Illusion Realm!”
“Didn’t you save my life as well? Even though you’ve already blocked countless blades for me before,”
Leo Ray, who had recovered from the shock, replied with a light smile and a nod.
Pausing for a moment, as if sensing something, Leo Ray was surprised again, “Taylor, has your strength increased?”
