It really comes down to this as you said and I believed she could have been a strong ally for mc in book 2 we got bums for allies most of the times she might not be the strongest but still decent and niki could have easily went with her getting more enlightenment for her spear she could have been a strong enough ally and maybe later a relevant romance too if she ever came back instead she came back to the tourney to get killed by he gang smh.If it is something that will always happen then I am sure niku did it because he didn't want people asking for her to come back later as a strong ally ,she had decent amount of chance to become a strong ally because of Mc and then maybe a romance but niku I guess is trying to put that **** into the coffin lol.I hope it is just a variation and not a railroaded thing.She was already written out of the story lmao. niki brought her back and wrote more variables for her just to kill her off regardless of our input? That is just abysmal for a popular fling and a fight that was promising a lot of variation.
I am hoping this is for the route where you ask He Gang for help, but being honest that is probably just cope on my part.
