Chapter 99 Ambrose Vs. Jaeger

"Hah!" Jaeger let out a mighty scream and pushed the black blade away with sudden burst of strength, even taking Ambrose by surprise.

"Death Axe Blow!" He lifted his one-handed axe high in the air and smashed it down like he was chopping wood.

'I shouldn't even try to block that. I am confident in my strength, but I shouldn't be blindly arrogant!' Ambrose thought quickly and jumped to the side.

However, to his surprise, there was a wall in the direction where he jumped.

He accidentally tackled the wall while the one-handed axe struck the ground beside him, sending shattered wood fly.

Ambrose shook his head, slightly dazed after tackling the wall, and then swung his sword towards Jaeger.

The blond-haired leader of Death Blade quickly moved the axe in the way of the sword and blocked it.

The sparks once again flew before disappearing in midair.

"Let us help you, boss!" Miguel shouted while rushing forward with his wooden sword. "Basic Slash!"

He was followed by two other players wielding long spears with several meters of attack range.

"Heh." Jaeger grinned, but he also wondered how the cloaked figure would handle this dilemma.

Ambrose narrowed his eyes and reached out to the empty air as if he were about to pull something from his inventory.

However, at the last moment, he decided not to and instead kicked Jaeger in the shoulder.

Jaeger staggered backwards while feeling numb in his left shoulder. However, it did pathetic 2 HP damage to him.

Therefore, he didn't care about it and rushed back at Ambrose.

A shadow appeared above Ambrose in the shape of a sword. Miguel rained down his Basic Slash attacks with his drunken fury.

Spurt—the sword smashed into Ambrose's shoulder, cutting through his cloak and finally the flesh.

However, the blade didn't go all the way through.

[-30 HP!]

[HP: 195/290]

'He is dead!' Jaeger showed a huge grin.

"Heh." Miguel also grinned and reached out towards the hood that covered the face of the cloaked figure.

He wanted to reveal his face before he vanished into pixels.

Grab—suddenly, a pale-looking hand grabbed Miguel by his wrist. The hand belonged to Ambrose.

He slowly raised his gaze and stood up.

He checked the wound on his shoulder and scoffed—it was merely a flesh wound.

"Argh!" Miguel pushed his sword forward. "How are you still alive?"

Ambrose pulled Miguel by the wrist and tossed him to the ground.

Even though Miguel's frame was larger and he weighed way more, he was still able to throw him to the ground like it was nothing.

Miguel's head crashed into the floor with a loud thud.

He then opened his eyes just in time to see a black blade stab him in the middle of his eyes.

He let out a sudden gasp, but then darkness filled his vision, and he disappeared.

[You killed a Player!]

[525 XP Earned!]

After only a few seconds, Miguel returned to the game but forgot that his spawn spot was also on the second floor.

Therefore, his fate was to burn for a few seconds before vanishing.

[You killed a Player!]

[525 XP Earned!]

"You bastard!" Jaeger screamed and slashed down with his axe.

However, he only slashed empty air as Ambrose suddenly started sprinting towards the two spear-wielding men.

Ambrose quickly dodged their sloppy spear thrusts and then, with one clean slash, separated their heads from their torsos.

The two spear-wielding men died before reappearing only seconds later on the second floor to also suffer the burning death.

Ambrose looked at the notifications in front of him while also keeping his eye on Jaeger.

[You killed a Player!]

[400 XP Earned!]

[LEVEL UP!]

[Level 33 -> 34]

"Shit, shit!" Jaeger screamed. He couldn't think straight because he was still under the influence of alcohol.

He didn't bother giving any orders to his remaining members and instead rushed after Ambrose in an attempt to kill him.

Ambrose saw the fury-filled, blond-haired man chase after him. contemporary romance

However, instead of fighting him head-on, he ran in the other direction—towards the entrance of the building.

He was escaping!

"You won't escape!" Jaeger screamed.

The drunken members of Death Blade chased after him.

Morris also tried to follow, but his girlfriend was clinging to his legs, so he couldn't move.

"D-don't go!" Welma cried out.

"Snap out of it; we have to kill that bastard!" Morris shouted and tried to remove his girlfriend, but to no avail.

Ambrose ran out of the building and past the burning bonfire. He ran into the night while glancing over his shoulder.

He saw Jaeger and three other players chase after him.

'Two of them stayed behind. Hmm, this works. I just have to distract them so that they forget about the fire on the second floor. Even though they are drunk, I doubt they are stupid enough to log back in once they saw so many of their friends dying by the fire.

'However, if I can make them angry and distracted enough, they might.'

Ambrose looked around the street and soon found the building he was looking for.

He smashed through the inn's front door and ran to the stairs.

He then heard footsteps follow him in a quick pursuit.

Once he reached the stairs, he turned around and smashed his sword down.

However, Jaeger expected it and raised his axe as a block.

"Weak!" Jaeger screamed, his neck veins bulging. He pushed Ambrose backward, causing him to jump up the stairs.

"Hmph!" Ambrose lifted his black-bladed sword and repeatedly slashed down while Jaeger blocked and parried with scary accuracy.

They fought on the tight staircase without losing an inch.

'He is very talented. He is better than me skill-wise...' Ambrose hated to admit it, but if Jaeger wasn't drunk, he doubted he would be able to win.

He then noticed the three players arrive at the stairway. They couldn't advance, as there was simply no room for more than two people to fight.

Slash—Jaeger grabbed the axe with both hands, even though it wasn't designed for that, and slashed through Ambrose's forearm, causing blood to splatter against the wall.

The damage was higher than expected.

However, Ambrose didn't look fazed.

[-15 HP!]

[HP: 180/295]

"Death Axe Rapid Blow!" Jaeger raised his axe high in the air and started smashing it down like a hammer on an anvil.

Ambrose lifted his black blade and blocked the axe with a great struggle.

His knees crashed into the ground, and his axe-blocking sword smashed into his shoulder.

The axe was trying to cut through his sword and his shoulder.

"Hahaha, you are no match for me!" Jaeger grinned and wanted to break through the black blade and cut through Ambrose's entire body.

The three players behind him grinned and cheered for their boss.

"Heh..." Ambrose suddenly checked and quietly whispered something.

He reached his hand forward as if he were asking for help from someone.

However, to everyone's shock, suddenly a red-bladed sword appeared in his hand.

Jaeger's eyes widened in shock, but then the red blade slashed through his legs.

He noticed that he was falling backward with zero control over his legs.

He crashed into the three players, and they all fell to the ground.

"A-ahh..." The three players looked at their boss with shaky eyes. "B-boss, your legs!"

Jaeger gulped and looked down. His eyes widened in shock, and a feeling of terror enveloped him.

His legs were still standing on the second set of stairs. His legless torso was gushing with blood, and he could see his health depleting rapidly.

Ambrose stomped down the stairs and looked coldly at Jaeger and the three players.

"Y-you!" Jaeger screamed with bloodshot eyes. "We are not don—"

Spurt—with the Red and Black Sword, he slashed through Jaeger and the three players, killing four people at the same time.
