I mean I know Guts swore to take care and watch over Casca and wouldn't ask Skully to take her there for him. But if Skull Knight could carry Guts and Casca out of the Eclipse, I'm pretty sure he could whisk them to Elfhelm. If he shows up in Elfhelm sometime after, fine. Maybe he was doing more important things while they were on their sea voyage. It would be like he could've saved them an ass load of trouble but just didn't bother.
If he does everything for Guts, then Guts wouldn't get stronger, if he didn't save Guts and Casca during the eclipse they would have died, but this journey they can make on their own, and hes made a lot of friends along the way and has gathered more power. SK has actually done a lot of things for Guts, he saved him during the Eclipse, he breifed him after the Eclipse about the intercise, he arranged the Berserker armor to fall into his hands. He has actually saved Guts a lot of trouble already. Its the journey that is more important than the destination. I'm pretty sure though that if something really bad were to come Guts's way that SK would help him, like a certain someone trying to take his sword ;).
