It sounded impossible, but the empirical proof was hard to deny. One swing of Liam's greatsword had killed a low-stage branching expert.

After developing the body-enhancing pill, Liam had always fought in an empowered state. That was his norm, which was why the treatment made him feel back in familiar skin.
Also, with a body that matched rank 3 spells and a hulking tool made from rank 3 materials, Liam's swing had been nothing short of a weapon art, and an extremely simple but powerful one.
The greatsword hadn't even cleaved. It had obliterated. It was no sharp blade after all. It was a crushing chunk of metal that happened to have two sharp edges.
