Clearly Griffith was right. I wasn't so much as him sleeping with Charlotte as it was the King wanting her for himself. It's a shame that such a sweet girl is being used by the both of them.
I just started read Berserk about a week ago, and the beginning of this chapter was quite possible the creepiest thing so far. The Kings face and expression reminded me of Junji Ito's work for some reason.
This chapter left me utterly speechless. I really regret it was omitted in the anime. Unfortunately, Griffith was right about King's intentions. Poor Charlotte...
