Bye Norn ;_;7
Glad MC didn't kill her, at least. What exactly is her role going to be while they're on the run trying to kill a demon lord? Weird decision to take care of three major characters so quickly by killing the two most useful ones.
If it were me, "[Ugrading]", Blade would have made the most sense as another vanguard, and at least Hawk-Eye would have been a very useful ally. Comparatively, keeping around the loli military strategist in this situation is just dead weight.
