@Mitsuboshi As those stories always go, she might appear again soon
But honestly, he is free to do what he wants and does not owe her. If a Vice-Commender does not have the guts to speak up when the "leader" makes a decision that puts the whole group at risk, then that person is not really too...
@Genoshock I said the same earlier.
The condition was to reach stage 7. Nobody ever said anything about how!
This really shows how bright they are.
Xing could have forced the pill down his brother´s throat in the meeting hall, and still would have cleared all conditions.
As the only true inheritor of darkness magic, she is the only one worthy of attention.
She could easily waltz in and say "I am the only one who can serve the kingdom with my magic".
Her new bodyguard could also state how she was clearly mistreated in the past.
