The Halberd
The Valkyrie trembled when she saw Ryu's change of weapon.
Everyone of that era knew about. The three Tatsuya Saintly Weapons. The spear. The glaive. And… The halberd.
The first was known as the God Emperor, a master spearman who had unrivaled cleverness. The second was known as the War God, a man who knew nothing but war and battle. But the third, this was a weapon that stood above both others. The Dragon God!
Ryu never used his halberd. It wasn't because he preferred the spear or the glaive, it was rather because every trial he had faced until now was simply a way of testing himself. He wanted to push himself to his limits because this stage was far too small for him.
Simply put. If he used his halberd… There would be no suspense.
