So he didnt wound her in the stairwell and it was a wound reopening or somthing. I mentioned that I thought it was odd as if he managed to wound her she wouldn't have gotten away unless he let her, as she would have run the moment she saw him coming. And so if he wounded her it would mean he got the drop on her. But for him to have wounded her and let her go only makes sense if he knew about the teleporting as he would need her as a beacon. Which him being smart enough to figure that out is unbelievable. And if I have heard right this part of the story has been changed a bit in every version, so if it was he hurt her originally but let her go as bait and the author realized that made no sense as he would then have to be smart enough to figure the teleporting out. But this now also makes no sense, if he knew yoke was coming back for her, why on earth would he leave her alive, He just waited there without showing himself and gloating at her? No way, he would have messed her up while waiting. The reason she is alive is he needed her alive to be bait, but him knowing that was removed by changes. This is just sloppy writing leaving threads of the changes made.
But yeah this character has far outlasted his welcome. I have seen many stating its so he can be punished with a slow death, but I don't care anymore, most don't care anymore, we just want him gone at this point, the quicker the better. We have hated and wanted him gone for to long at this point the window of a satisfying death is long over. At this point I am worried about this series, the author need to let it move forward and make new content vs milking one enemy.
