I guess this is like that:
There are two Battlers
First one was Asumu's son and died
Second one (the current one) isn't human (artificial body or something) but has the first one's soul after the "crime", like how there are two Beatrices
Trauma from said crime made him forget what happened and he persuaded himself into thinking that he is stronger and taller because he did some sports or something

>> No.2009457

>>2009428
It's not that complicated
Battler isn't Asumu's son, but he IS Ange's brother. So he is most likely Rudolf's son and therefore an Uroshimiya.
Then come the question of his mother, the most obvious answer should be Kyrie of course. She mentioned getting pregnant at the same time as Asumu and losing her baby. And honestly Battler and Kyrie personalities are pretty close.

Ooooh boy, how could I forget that part in EP3
"If he was born, he would be the same age as Battler now" or something like that. Then the first Battler is Asumu's son, and the second and current one is Kyrie's first child. Then the one who miscarried was Asumu? If that is true, then her role in the story is way smaller, and that's suspicious. I bet EP5 will be about her.

he is correct. Beato just messed around and demonstrated with the red that Battler (the one we know) isn't asumu's son, that's it.

Original Battler's whereabouts/identity is unknown (we only know that s/he share the same name and was born from Asumu).

However, Battler cannot be Kyrie's son, because Kyrie got a MISCARRIAGE (fetus died before 20 weeks), hence there is no baby swap possible
