The poor count... poor, foolish count... and poor Theresia too. I'm quite certain we've not seen the last of her.
It's amazing; Guts acts so cruel and savage almost all the time, so when he extended his blade to Theresia to save her, I couldn't help but grin widely. It's a small thing, the type of thing you'd expect out of a typical protagonist, but it means so much coming from Guts. Guts' face in the second-to-last page was truly heartbreaking.
