[quote=@Raineh Daze] Or... make things easy on the GM and play along in this one scenario, rather than requiring exhaustingly prepared work for the necessary task of 'get Guts to be where [i]literally anyone else is[/i]. Better than falling into a random dimensional hole. Key word here: demon. The Dragonslayer is anti-demonic, it is not Imagine Breaker or Asuna from Negima. Any supposed anti-magic properties that come from dealing with the apostles are more down to it being an anti-apostle (and thus equivalent to anti-demon once you step back from cosmology) thing. [/quote] You don't need exhaustively prepared work to type up a nonmagical NPC. Like, you do what you do for a magical one, but make them not magic. If for whatever reason Vita had trouble figuring out what kind of NPC would work best for coercing Guts, there was always just the option of asking the guy who reads Berserk and is also playing him. Also, 'Demon Sultan' is a nickname. Magic in the Berserk-verse is not classified as "good" or "evil" or "demonic" or whatever. If it's magic, it's magic, regardless of origin. Apostles are magic; constructs are magic; spells are magic. And the Dragonslayer is able to cut through it, even though a normal chunk of steel shouldn't be able to. The sword's at LEAST as good as, if not better than, a 100% magical weapon made by a crazy powerful witch. Bathing the Dragonslayer in Apostle and demon blood lets it cut through magic, and Guts has also killed numerous supernatural creatures besides just apostles.
