A Berserker Reborn

The apostle looked up at the Dragon Slayer, with an insane look in his eyes, and he dodged to the side. With a fierce wind, the sword slashed straight into his shoulder like butter.

Boom!

The ground shattered under the weight of the Dragon Slayer, a chunk of meat falling onto the ground as the apostle's shoulder was brutally cut off by Guts.

In an alley, a short and fat man covered in bandages and legs made out of pegs watched the fight unfold with a huge maniacal smirk on his face. He had pleasure in his eyes.

"This Blackswordsman... Could he really kill him?"

Excitement flashed in the man's eyes at the prospect of the apostle being killed by Guts.

Back with Guts. Leaping back as a whip made of flesh hit the ground where Guts stood, the ground cracked and broke under the force of the attack.

The form of the king started to change as his mouth opened, and a huge head similar to a snail with a humanoid head came into the scene, with 2 antennas on his head.

The smell of shit reeked off of him, with green slime flowing down his body. His human body was now only a towering form of a human and snail fusion.

"Blackswordsman... Your efforts are futile. You could never hope to defeat me!"

The apostle smiled as he looked down at Guts, his body towering over Guts, but Guts was not scared anymore like at the beginning. Instead, a grin made it onto Guts' face.

"What is with all that chit-chat? With how much your mouth is opening and closing, maybe you should be a certified glory hole for your soldiers~"

The apostle was silent for a few seconds before more whips were created from his sludge-like body. With sound-breaking speed, they whipped towards Guts.

Boom!

Guts were able to react, and he jumped to the side, dodging the flesh whips. With a groan of effort, Guts stepped on the ground, cracking it with his strength before he slashed down towards the whips.

"Suck your mother!"

With the sound of the wind being slashed by a great amount of force, Guts slashed through the whips. The apostle let out a muffled gasp of shock at Guts' speed.

"How can a human do this? It's impossible!!"

Guts looked up at the apostle, and his eye trembled in excitement and satisfaction. The body that he inherited was shaking with happiness and satisfaction.

For once, he does not have to be on the edge every time he fights an apostle. He can actually kill them with a kind of ease.

A small amount of concern was etched onto Guts' face as he looked at his trembling hand.

"This body... it's almost like it's alive... But why?"

Guts was confused. He thought that Guts had already died when he took over the body...

"Whatever..."

Guts let go of the distraction, and instead, he jumped into the air, his figure flew towards the head of the apostle at high speed. With a loud scream, Guts ripped his sword through the chest of the slug.

Boom!

Guts fell to the ground, and behind him, the upper body of the apostle also fell down. Peeking from behind Guts, Puck was amazed, but then his face contorted with fear.

"Guts, watch out!"

Never letting his guard down, Guts instantly took his Dragon Slayer and started spinning in place, cutting the hands and whips that the apostle tried to attack him with.

Even with his upper body cut in half, he was not dead. His body started rejoining with the other half in a disgusting show of regeneration.

"I told you already... A human could never defeat an apostle!"

Guts clicked his tongue as he looked at the creature, he almost forgot that apostles have insane healing abilities. But it was not something omnipotent, Guts thought with a wide smirk.

Boom!

Leaving an afterimage behind him, Gits slashed through the head of the apostle with needle-like precision. Dragon Slayer was bather in the blood of the apostle as it slashed through him.

Crashing into the ground with a loud sound, the momentum of his speed dragged Guts along the brick tiles with a crushing sound, creating 2 ditches under his foot.

"Tell that to my Dragon Slayer!"

Puck looked at Guts with awe, and he flew out of his hoodie, he plopped down on his shoulder and smiled.

"Guts, I did not know you were cool like that!"

"Puck, please don't scream in my ear, you little fairy."

Guts smiled as he rubbed the underside of Puck's chin with his finger. Puck glared at Guts with annoyance as he swatted his finger away with an angry huff.

"Hmph! Don't touch me as if I'm a pet. I'll let you know. I am a super powerful fairy!"

"Sure, whatever you say, my great fairy friend. Now, how about you come out from there."

Puck looked around in confusion until the sound of wood tapping on the ground drew his attention. From an alley, a short, portly man emerged.

Just as Guts was about to talk to Vargas, he suddenly opened his eyes since he did not feel an increase in strength by killing the count.

"Shit!"

Turning around, Guts watched with wide eyes as one of the eyes of the count was open. A scream was heard from Vargas, the fat short man.

"W-what is this?!"

Turning around, Guts saw a Behelit on the ground as Vargas dropped it, and the count on the ground was looking at the Behelit.

'Don't want to die... I don't want to die!'

The Behelit suddenly started changing colour. The dispersed features of a face, like a nose and mouth, started moving into the normal place, or where it should be.

The eyes opened rapidly, and tears of blood ran down its cheek as the mouth opened in a silent scream.

"Puck, come here!"

Guts jumped put Puck inside his hoodie, and gripped the Dragon Slayer in his hand, he was still good for a fight since the count did not even manage to hit him once.

And his stamina is still high, he can keep swinging this giant chunk of iron for at least an hour.

Just then, the dimension around Guts and Puck changed, Vargas fell on his ass in fear, and the count smiled in his mind as he saw the 5 figures in front of him.

A black sun appeared in the sky, and darkness washed over the sky for a brief moment before it changed into a never-ending staircase-like room.

"The Godhand!"

Guts muttered, and Puck immediately paled in fright at the mention of the name, Guts already explained what the Godhand is to Puck, and how they were basically demi-gods.

 Guts looked up, and his eyes locked with a figure clad in dark armour, and wings acting like a robe.

Guts froze.

His body started shaking, and he felt himself lose control of his mouth and vocal cords. Something strange happened next.

"GRIFFITH!!!!"

Guts, even though he did not want to, shouted out in fury and hatred as he looked at Griffith, Puck looked at Guts in worry. He had never seen him this mad before.

Griffith briefly looked at Guts before looking away like he did not exist. Instead, his eyes landed on the count.

Void, the seeming leader of the God Hand, spoke up as he looked down at the count.

"What is it that you wish?"
