Guts briefly closed his eyes and looked to the empty void that he was still locked in with this girl. He groaned from the strange comfort he was getting in this space but took a look at the girl with a grumpy demeanor.

Her white hair flowed with the void as she just took all this to simply float in this nothingness. Maybe 2 minutes may have passed. He had to admit that this peace in the void was nice. He wanted to sleep even but he held off as he knew that god might come in anytime now. He turned his head to the side to look at the background of this seemingly endless dimension.

"Yo old man!" Dark Eri called to Guts as he looked her way with wider open eyes

"When do you think he is going to release us?" She asked as she 'swam' in this nothingness to him

"It shouldn't take long for us. So just keep waiting." He told her as she pouted at that response

"Mmaaaahhh... So boring." She said as Guts noticed she had an owl mask. It looked alien at first. She was a curious one as Guts could not see what made her a fighter beside her attire that looked like a bandit get up but he felt something off her which was blood thirsty. He didn't know what that was but he knew god works in mysterious ways which meant this girl must be a monster in her own right.

"Brat. Why did he choose you?" Guts asked as she twisted around to look at the old man.

"Well... the Daishinkan choose me to stop the man that took care of me from hurting some world of another universe or so he says. I find it hard to believe... But... From what I've seen.. And what he said..." She paused for a while as Guts kept looking at Dark Eri who seem conflicted and grasping on whatever thoughts plagued her mind.

She huffed and continued "He says... Izuku has lost a few screws and now acts like a monster... Which is going rampant on people.. I-... I don't believe him... But if papa is in trouble or he is causing that kind of trouble to literally have a god call me... then I will join the god's side to do whatever to stop him. And meet him since..." She rubbed her arm as Guts nodded as he waved at her to call off the discussion.

"That's all I wanted to know. You don't need to tell me everything." Guts told her as she nodded and felt a little alleviated she did not have to talk too much about Izuku. It hurt... And she did not want to be dragged into her weak inner self.

"How about you?" She asked as Guts grunted

"That man you speak of has come to my world and robbed the Berserker armor. Now he possess a real danger to everyone." He told her flat out as she snarled at that quick blame

"Hgah... Tch... I know he is not the same man he was, but are you sure he took whatever that is? He wouldn't resort to some petty-" She said with a little spite as Guts cut her off

"Petty? No. He performed a great heist and took an object he has no idea what it can do. He has become a danger too strong for his own good. I am not only sure he is the one... I KNOW he stole it as Daishinkan has informed me of this guy's actions across the different worlds. Including mine as I later found out he was the one who took it from my guards."

Eri flinched at the hard words as they were still hurtful. Papa really has gone nuts...

"Just asking..." She grabbed her hands together and twirled her fingers in worry "In how much danger is he? Wearing that armor of yours...?" She asked as Guts laughed in a low tone for a short beat.

"His very consciousness can be swallowed... And the beast that lives inside my armor will use him as a puppet and live to destroy... Everything it can." Guts said without any sugar coating as Eri winced at that. She remembered the god say he might not even remember her...
