Is this really a Game?!

716 Blood-Stained Halberd: Unleashing the Demonic Power



"What in the world is he?" The demon softly asked as he glanced over to the battle that was taking place between the Ethereon Demons and Reign. The leader of the previous group quickly jumped to the side and dodged Liara's halberd before his golem swung its giant fist at her, sending her flying back as he placed her halberd in front of her, blocking the attack.

"What's the matter, you getting cold feet?" Liara asked the demon who scoffed at her.

"You're behaving quite differently from before, the arrogant attitude you possessed is no longer present I see, now why would that be, maybe because you now realize just how dangerous of a situation you are in?" Liara asked as the demon narrowed his eyes and stared at her.

"That man might have surprised me with his strength, but you, as well as those weaklings who are spectating, are nothing to me, for a weakling that had to be saved by another, you really know how to talk and act tough, huh?" The demon asked Liara with a sneer on his face, causing her face to redden slightly as anger flew through her body.

"You bastard, I'm gonna make you pay for that," Liara said as a bloodthirsty smile appeared on her face. She suddenly clenched her halberd before placing her left hand over to the axe head of the halberd and grasping it before moving her hand down, drenching the halberd in her blood.

"Drink it, we have a job to do, I can't have you sleeping anymore," Liara muttered softly as the weapon suddenly shook.

From the black halberd that seemed a bit old, the halberd started changing. The black color it possessed was actually not color, but a thin layer of something similar to rust that started falling down after the halberd started shaking.

The true appearance of the halberd appeared seconds after Liara spilled her blood on it. A Silver halberd with red lines flowing through it that looked similar to veins suddenly appeared. Right beneath the spike and axe-head of the halberd was a circle on which an eye that started straight at the demon appeared.

"That halberd, a demonic weapon, how can you wield that?!" The demon suddenly asked in apprehension as Liara popped a pill in her mouth, it was the same pill she had reached for previously, right before Reign appeared.

The name of the pill was 'Blood Replenishing Pill', and just like its name suggested, it replenished the blood of a person. The pills were specially made for Liara, and they were made with several materials, the most important of which was her own blood.

Her halberd was a bit special, in order to use its full power, one needed to not only spill their own blood on it, but they also needed to continue giving it blood.

Four small tentacles suddenly came out of the halberd before latching onto Liara's right arm. First, the tentacles coiled around her arm, completely covering it, before the tentacles, which ended with what looked like open mouths, bit into her arm and stayed there.

Liara slightly winced from the sensation of four small mouths biting into her arm and slowly drinking her blood as she smiled dangerously at the demon who was drawing demonic energy to himself and was getting ready for the next stage of the battle.

A red hue covered the halberd before going into Liara, strengthening her. The longer Liara battled with the halberd, the stronger she became, but the more blood the halberd took. She always carried around her pills as without them, she would only be able to fight for a short period of time like this.

The halberd was something she found a long time ago, during an exploration into a demon region. For some reason, the halberd seemed to have taken a liking to Liara who felt a sort of connection to it before taking it.

The moment she had done so, the black halberd showed its true appearance and took her blood, which shocked everybody present and right as they were about to attack the halberd and get it away from Liara, she stopped them as she sensed that the halberd wasn't trying to really hurt it.

That had been a sort of ceremony, a way the halberd bonded with those it choose to wield it, and it was then that the recipe for the 'Blood Replenishing Pill' appeared in Liara's head. She had quickly told the others in the region what had happened and had told the researchers and alchemists of the region about the recipe, which had made them crazy for a while as such a pill was incredibly important.

After all, healers could heal a person's injury, but it was impossible for them to give them back the blood they lost, which was why even after people would get completely healed from serious injuries, they needed to rest and take it easy as they had previously lost quite a lot of blood.

They would transfer blood from other people to them, which took time, but with the blood pill present, they could simply make a couple for each person and give them some while leaving some in the region so that they could be used if they needed it there.

It was a game changer, and for Liara, it was the only way she could use the halberd for prolonged periods of time without suffering any side effects, which was exactly why the halberd had given her the recipe.

Liara smiled at the demon before charging at him. She quickly dodged to the side and evaded the golem's attack before jumping on its arm and running up before jumping toward the demon as the golem tried hitting her with its other arm.

Liara smirked at him before suddenly throwing her halberd at the demon who sneered and dodged it, only to suddenly widen his eyes as the four tentacles were still present, they merely extended as the halberd was thrown, and Liara was able to control it.

She quickly moved her arm to the side, and the halberd followed, going straight at the demon who had jumped to the side. He clenched his teeth and used his mace to block the attack which sent him sliding to the side for 2 meters before stopping.

But the attack was still not finished as Liara continued attacking the demon while falling down to the ground.

She used the halberd in a way that was more suited for a whip. Her halberd moved through the air, hitting the demon who was clenching his teeth and being pushed back as Liara moved to the side, evading another attack from the Golem.

Not only was she able to attack from long-range, with the maximum distance being 25 meters, but her attacks were powerful, carrying quite some force thanks to the fact she was using the halberd as a whip, giving it a lot of momentum before it reached the enemy.

'Tch, this golem is annoying.' Liara suddenly thought as she poured mana into the halberd, and it responded by taking more blood. The eye that was on the halberd suddenly stared at the golem before it started shining. In an instant, a red beam was fired from the eye, hitting the golem's shoulder and nearly destroying it. 

Liara was not finished, however, as she had jumped up before gathering a lot of mana into her free left arm. She punched the shoulder, and thanks to the great damage that the red bead had previously done, the shoulder broke in pieces, and its arm fell down.

"Dammit!" The demon said in anger as he charged at Liara, only to be attacked by the halberd. He dodged the halberd and continued forward, but Liara only grinned at his actions. She moved her arm to the side, and suddenly, the demon felt the tentacles that bound Liara and the halberd touching his legs.

The halberd moved to the side before suddenly passing him, and with it, the tentacles had gone around his legs before coiling around them as the halberd quickly moved in a circle around the demon.

"It can move on its own?!" The demon shouted in surprise as Liara chuckled before seeing the demon fall to the ground.

The halberd suddenly moved up before crashing down at the demon, with the intention of piercing through him and killing him.

The demon blocked it with his mace which gained a couple of cracks on it as the halberd had actually managed to pierce halfway through it with the attack.

'Tch, I need another one.' Liara suddenly thought before taking out another pill and putting it in her mouth. She had no idea how powerful the halberd was as it had no rank and didn't really show its stats like other weapons, but so far, she had never met an enemy whose weapon could actually withstand its attacks for long.

'It seems like it's time to slowly finish this up.' Liara thought as she glanced to the side to see how Reign was doing, only to find that only 3 demons he was fighting against were still alive.
