Well, what I see is that the idea seems to be that Mokou will distract/hold down/beat Guts while Vita's NPC tries to recruit them both. Understandably, Mokou is likely to accept (because she has no IC reason to be suspicious of other people), while Guts will either accept or be brought over anyway and locked in a cell until he accepts.

More or less, she'd just be an obstacle if things did go wrong again, hopefully giving the NPC time to stop the attempted murder. Which hopefully they wouldn't. If not, Guts actually gets to interact with someone that has as much clue of what's going on as he does.

Do you think cutting Mokou in half counts as murder or assault?
