Chapter 197 Unbelievable Power
It looked down and realized that there was an enormous hole in its stomach, where the young man had targeted his attack.
Without understanding how a single human was capable of doing that, it fell down—dead.
The creature's lifeless body lay motionless on the ground, never to terrorize anyone again.
"Haaah... haaah..." Ambrose breathed heavily as he looked at the dead creature in front of him.
"H-how did I do that?"
Looking at his sword, he couldn't believe the power that had just coursed through him.

Snap—he turned his head towards a Velociraptor, who had stepped over a branch, snapping it in half.
He then looked around the forest around him and saw at least five Velociraptors.
They were closing in on him, their jaws open wide, ready to attack.
'Hmm...' Ambrose looked down at his left arm.
It was shaking.
Whether it was adrenaline or just a side effect of using all his strength, it was unknown, but he wanted to try it again!
[Slash of the Three Worlds - Completion Rate - 100%]
[Slash of the Three Worlds - Rank: Beyond Rare]
'It reached 100% instantly. Well, I just killed a T-Rex, no wonder.'
This meant his last attack wasn't the best use of this skill.
Since it wasn't truly mastered, the accuracy and strength might be sub-par.
'Well, let's try.'
Swoosh—The Velociraptors charged at him.
Seeing the young human surrounded, they were certain that their ambush had been successful.
However, then Ambrose sprang into the air and clenched the sword in his left hand so hard that his muscles again swelled.
The vessels danced and protruded around his bulging biceps, displaying the immense power he possessed.
Squeeze—after grabbing his bicep with his right hand, he turned towards the Velociraptors and coldly whispered.
"Slash of the Three Worlds..."
Swoosh—he swung his arm through the air, summoning every inch of his strength into the blade.
The blade shredded through the velociraptors, leaving a trail of blood and broken bones in its wake.
The Velociraptors got utterly decimated, their once formidable numbers reduced to nothing more than scattered remains.
Thud—Ambrose landed back on the ground, surrounded by the dead velociraptors.
'Time's up...' His soul whispered inside his mind and returned to the world of souls.

Ambrose sheathed his sword and looked at his experience points.

'There's still a long way to go.' Ambrose focused his gaze on the depths of the forest.
It was as if he could still feel the lingering gazes of the dinosaurs.
'Four more to go...'
With a powerful step, he began chasing after the fleeting dinosaurs.
After his departure, back at the campsite, the Wisdom King opened his eyes and smiled.
"Truly remarkable." He stopped roasting the dead wild boar for a moment and went to fetch his heavy-looking bag.
From there, he pulled out a worn-out scroll and opened it.
[Mortal Style]
A specific sword style was written on it.
"I suppose he is worthy enough of getting this." The Wisdom King went to Ambrose's bag, stored it inside, and then went back to the campfire.
After sitting down, he sighed and looked at the crackling of the flames.
"There is not much I can teach him anymore. He already possesses all the knowledge and skills necessary to grow stronger by himself in this hostile world.
"It's a little selfish of me to give the style scroll to him...
"After all, I made an enemy of him... If he sees him using that style, he will target him.
"However, one day, I hope that this foolish disciple of mine becomes powerful enough to kill him for me."
The Wisdom King sighed sadly. "I am truly a selfish man."
"Matchitehew... You can't stay as King forever. You'll die eventually, and I hope I will be there to witness that."
...
At the Rothsmith Estate.
"Yatagarasu is destroyed..." Emma looked at the phone in her shaky hands. "Our bookstore... i-is it also?"
Wanting to know, she rushed to get the VR headset even though she was about to leave for school in a minute.
Closing her eyes, she entered the world of Martial Online.
As she expected to appear back in the Whispering Pages, she instead appeared in the middle of a town with rugged-looking people walking by.
"The refugees from Yatagarasu!" A loud voice bellowed across the air.
It belonged to a handsome silver-haired man who was pointing towards the town center.
"Free food and drinks for the refugees in the town center. If you have just arrived, go get there and register your name there so we know that you have survived and can find proper housing for you!"
'W-what is happening?' Emma looked around in confusion, trying to make sense of the chaos unfolding around her.
"Excuse me, young miss, are you lost?" Then, an elderly woman with a hunched back saw the lost-looking young girl and came to assist her. "Where are your parents, little one?"
"I-I..." Emma stammered, trying to find the right words to explain her situation. "M-my friend... Bella..."
"If your friend is here, she should be at the town center. Want to come with me?" The elderly woman offered her hand with a gentle smile.
Emma hesitantly looked at the hand and eventually accepted it.
After they arrived at the town center, there was utter chaos with thousands of refugees sitting on top of roofs, in the nearby alleyways, and anywhere they could find a place to sit and enjoy their food.
As they surveyed the area, they saw many lost-looking people trying to find any of their family members.
The elderly woman took Emma to one of the registration offices, where they managed to ask the whereabouts of a woman called Bella.
Unfortunately, there weren't any registered that were named like that.
"I am sorry, little one." The elderly woman sadly smiled at the little girl, aware of the possible outcome that this young woman, Bella, suffered.
"No..." Emma shook her head and opened her chat history, then spammed Bella with messages.
She hoped she would answer and say that everything was alright, but after a minute, nothing came.
"No..." Her heart sank.
...
Tap, tap, tap...
"Oh, you are back." The Wisdom King smiled while eating the leftover food from the wild boar. "Apologizes, but I already ate it all."
"I don't mind..." Ambrose walked from the forest with an exhausted expression.
He had finished hunting the dinosaurs, which eventually took an entire night.
However, the end result was amazing.

"Heh." The Wisdom King nodded. "Rest for a few hours, then we will continue your training."
"Yes..." Ambrose nodded and walked to his tent, where he logged off and returned to reality.
After opening his eyes, he sat up and rushed to the bedroom.
If he had been a few seconds late, an accident might've happened.
However, luckily, that didn't happen.
After leaving the bathroom, he groaned and touched his empty stomach.
"First food... then sleep!"
