When Duanmu Huai brought Jiezi back to the Minerva, everyone was shocked. After learning of Jiezi's ordeal, the female pilots aboard the Minerva were outraged, nearly out of their minds with anger. Had Duanmu Huai not already killed that guy by slicing him in two, they might have charged out to take revenge themselves.
After all, that act was unthinkable. Although Duanmu Huai had stopped it, had he not... that guy named Asakim had truly gone too far.
But regardless, Jiezi had returned safely, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
As to why that guy had targeted Jiezi… well, Duanmu Huai couldn't be bothered to ask, and no one else knew either. But the man was dead, which meant no more problems.
So you see, solving the creator of the problem is just the same as solving the problem itself. After all, curing the disease should mean treating both symptoms and root causes, but as long as the root cause is dealt with, it's no big deal if the symptoms are not, right?
