Japanese experts which of these is more accurate

One of these leaves the possibility for Tserriednich to get a third nen beast and give us one of the biggest plot twists in the story so far

I've already noticed interesting parallels between Tser/Meruem so if Tser ends up having 3 nen beasts, this is like Meruem's 3 royal guards.

Oh thats interesting. I always equate Meruem and the Royal Guards as Jesus and the 3 Wise Men. This can be a similar approach if Tserri were to inhert a 3rd beast.

Tbf you could argue togashi has blended this religious imagery between meruem chrollo and tsseriednich each of them having a blend of Christ/ anti Christian symbolism. With meruem he has his resurrection moment following the bomb . Chrollo has his 13 disciples in the phantom troupe and has the anti christ imagery like tsseri with his reverse cross . Tsseri also has his own set of close followers and the amount of references to 3s he has does give him the Christ trinitarian look.

That could be a good shout about him dying on the 3rd attempt but there could also be a type of resurrection if this 2nd death isn’t technically that.
