Chapter 171 Part 1: The Past of the Chimeras Listen while reading: Berserk - Behelit ----- Heisenberg never had the intention to become one of Beelzebub’s puppets. Since the beginning, he intended to use him to grow stronger, and once the situation arrived, he would get rid of the Demon. As similar as their goals were, Heisenberg was just as cunning as Beelzebub; both of these monsters could simply not coexist or work together forever. It was a fact, a fact that Beelzebub overlooked only because Heisenberg was a human. As a Death Apostle, he had gone through hundreds of worldlines, bringing destruction and despair to mortals, especially to humans, whose worldlines were the most he had visited. Because he always saw humans as prey, he never considered that this worldline would be different. But the existence of Chimeras, Hunters, and more was a factor he had not calculated. Heisenberg used the power he gained from the Demonic Stigma to awaken his innate strength much further. Much like Anna, he developed a powerful Phantom Dao Root, and with it, he awakened his first trait, [Absorption]. Once he learned of its true power and potential, Heisenberg began to strengthen it by absorbing countless monsters and demons from Dungeons on the outskirts of the Stronghold City, which were usually not regulated. Eventually, as he strengthened his powers, a slight sensation came to him. The connection created with the Demonic Stigma that Beelzebub granted him, which felt like tight and indestructible chains around his soul, loosened. Over time, they loosened so much that he was confident enough he could break it at any moment. But would that be even enough? If he broke it, wouldn’t he lose the power provided by the Demonic Stigma? And then a realization came to him. Why doesn’t he just reverse its power? By “Absorbing” the Demonic Stigma and then reversing its effects as if he were regurgitating its Runic Structure, he was not only able to sap away at Beelzebub’s energy. But with all his strength, he was able to completely absorb the Death Apostle’s Manifestation, including the Demonic Soul being carried by its vessel. With the power of a Trait, and by abusing that Beelzebub’s powers were sealed because this world had only gone through the First Awakening, he accomplished something ridiculous, especially for someone who wasn’t like Anna or Jack. The skies continued to grow black, and the demonic beasts Beelzebub summoned remained being summoned, but the origin of it all became someone different. Heisenberg’s entire body started to melt into black goo, completely losing its original form and then reconstructing itself once more to adapt to this surplus of power. His maniac laughter could be heard across the dark skies, and the people of Stronghold could only watch in horror as an army of demonic monsters was prepared to massacre all of them. Beelzebub’s goal to slaughter millions of people to ascend into an Archdemon was still in motion. “This sensation… It feels like I am submerging in an endless sea of darkness.” Heisenberg’s consciousness constantly felt like it was drowning in an endless sea of darkness, boundless and unable to see the bottom. The shadows constantly engraved their demonic force into his very soul. Beelzebub’s will struggled, fighting against him for control of their combined body. “You dare absorb my very being, you foolish human?! Traitorous rat! I should have never trusted you, bastard! I will devour your soul whole!” Beelzebub attacked Heisenberg’s mind, attempting to devour it with all his mental abilities. His darkness seeps deeper into his psyche, seeking to absorb and assimilate it all. However, as Beelzebub did so, he saw countless bubbles full of images and memories that defined who Heisenberg was. “Memories? I’ll crush them so he loses his sense of self.” The Death Apostle’s insect-like claws extended to the bubbles of memories, attempting to crush them so Heisenberg would slowly lose his sense of self and become
