A Berserker Reborn

Shierke stepped out of her hiding place. The tree above her was cut in half from the slash Guts sent out. She looked at Guts in the distance. Her breath stopped as she sensed the power on him.

It was disrupting the flow of Od. She moved closer, trying to sense why he was causing this disruption.

.

"You are a witch I assume?"

Guts said as he placed his sword back onto his back. Shierke's eyes caught the blade, and she felt a shiver go up her spine at the amount of evil the sword held.

"Yes. You are correct."

Shierke replied while trying to take her eyes off the Dragon Slayer. Guts smirked as he caught her looking.

"A pretty good blade if I say so myself. What's your name?"

Guts asked with a smile. It depends on Shierke and her master if Dragon Slayer can be upgraded into a sword that can attack Griffith. If he can't attack outside of the flow, then he might as well give up.

"My name is Shierke"

Shierke looked at Guts. She felt the flow of Od around him distorting. She had never seen something like this before. She felt another sensation like this in the distance.

"Shierke. Good to meet you. Can I meet your master?"

Guts got straight to the point. He wants this to be done fast. He has no time to be playing mouse and cat with Griffith. The sooner he can kill him, the better.

Shierke was obviously about to say she does not have a master when a voice suddenly sounded inside her head.

'Shierke. Bring him and his friends here.'

Deep in the forest, a tree house was there, with an old-looking woman. Calmly sipped on her tee with her eyes closed. She had a smile on her face as he looked into the distance.

"So this is the branded warrior lead by wings? Skull Knight, he might be even more impressive than you."

Flora muttered under her breath as she saw the massive slash Guts sent out with a simple swing. A normal human would never be able to do something similar to what Guts did.

"What an interesting group."

Back with Guts, he and his group were being led by Shierke back to where Flora was waiting for her. She was worried as she did not know what Guts and his group might do.

Farnese was sweating as she looked at Shierke. She can't believe that a witch is right in front of her. What if she takes revenge for all the heretics accused of being a witch killed by her?

Soon the group led by Shierke made it to a small clearing where a massive tree house was. Isidro and Puck looked around with amazement as they saw the huge golems.

Shierke led the group inside the house. On top of a balcony, Flor smiled as she sensed Guts and Casca. The power of the brand was higher than normal branded ones.

Shierke led the group to meet Flora. She hworriedher face. Evarella the little elf companion of Shierke smiled as she comforted her.

"Don't worry. They won't harm Flora. They can't."

Shierke nodded before she led them to the balcony. Upon entering the balcony, guts immediately noticed Flora. Gutse walked forward, and he got on his knee as he looked up.

"I have a request that I hope you will fulfil. In return, I will also do anything you ask of me."

"Guts?!"

Puck and the group looked on in shock and surprise. Casca looked on in wonder while the group was flabbergasted. Isidro jumped next to Guts.

"Get up! You are not allowed to kneel to anyone! What if people find out what you did? I will become a laughing stock."

Guts smiled before pushing Isidro back gently, he turned back to Flora who looked down at him with a smile.

"What is your request?"

Flora's soothing voice was heard. Guts reached into his pouch and took out the Beherits. He also took down his Dragon Slayer.

"I hope you could fuse these Beherits with my Dragon Slayer. I am in urgent need of a better weapon."

Flora looked at the 3 Beherits in Guts' hand with surprise. Her eyes revealed melancholy as she thought about Skull Knight.

"Alright. But it could be dangerous if you are not able to control your mind."

Guts nodded his head. Few things in the world can mess with his mind, his willpower grows every single day from facing these monsters.

His body also has another will inside it. Even if someone tried to mess with his mind. The body would never aallowthat to happen.

"In the meanwhile... How about you and your friends rest here for a day. ?on't worry about your brands. It won't attract ghosts as long as you are here."

Gyts nodded his head in relief. If she told him that she couldn't fuse his sword with the Beherit. He would not know what to do. This is the only way for his weapon to hurt Griffith and the Godhand.

"Thank you."

Guts smiled as he bowed his head. This is the only time ever that he will bow his head to anyone...

Shierke led the group out, and everyone had a meal as the girls went to take a bath. After that Guts and the boys took a bath as well. Shierke watched them.

"You are probably destined to them Shierke."

Shierke turned around and looked at Flora with a questioning look on her face. Flora smiled.

"it's your choice if you want to go with them. I hope you at least think about it."

Flora said as she finished writing a few symbols on Dragon Slayer. A second later, Flora and Shierke felt like they were in a dimension of blood and monsters.

They had a hallucination of thousands of demons, ghosts and a sea of blood under them. It was the monsters, demons and ghosts that Dragon Slayer had killed.

"Such evil sword. It will be powerful. A sword like this might never be made again."

Flora said as she came back to her senses. Her palm landed on Shierke bringing her out of the illusion. The dragon slayer on the ground started glowing.

Its silver edges changed and gloved a blood red. The dark middle of the Dragon Slayer turned into a White colour. It was not a plain white, but it resembled the bones of the monsters that Guts killed.

"Now... The Beherits."

Shierke nodded as she put the Beherits on the Dragon Slayer. She placed one onto the handle where a symbol was drawn. One was on the blade, and the last one was placed on the tip of the sword.

"Deep woken abyss."

"Wash this sword with your deep-rooted evil."

"This sword shall never have the daylight reach it again."

"Turn it into a part of yourself."

"Make it turn black and ugly like yourself."

"Fuse yourself with it. Turn it into yourself!"

The 3 Beherits suddenly changed. They turned red like they were activated, but they weren't. They started to melt into a red sludge. The sludge covered every single inch of the blade.

Once it was done, it stuck to the blade like it was a second skin. The red skin turned pure black. The sludge solidified, and the Dragon Slayer fused with the Beherit.

The 3 Beherits merged with the Dragon Slayer, forming grotesque, distorted faces along its surface. The blade resembled a black hole with its dark colour.

The faces on the blade shifted. Eyes of the Beherits moved along its surface. The thousands of souls that the Dragon Slayer killed screamed without sound.

An eerie glow came off the blade before it merged into the blade. Space started distorting around the blade. It was becoming more than just a physical Sword.

It turned into something that existed in a multi-layered reality. Both the physical and the astral plane trembled at the birth of such a weapon.

Guts who was dressing up, suddenly felt like something was calling out to him. He vanished from place and he searched for the feeling. He ran towards a room that was closed off.

Boom!

The door was knocked open. Shierke and Flora looked at this in surprise. The door was enchanted so that not even monsters could get to the room.

As the door was opened by Guts. Everyone in a hundred-mile radius felt the aura of Dragon Slayer. It seeped into the astral and physical realm. Monsters and demons alike trembled.

"Dragon Slayer!..."
