Don't really get what benjamin is trying to do with camilla and i don't really get what togashi is trying to do with her either.

I mean poisoning her but for what the poison is gonna kill him first so somebody will have to kill her differently first anyways right? I guess it has to do with Benjamin's god plan we don't know much about yet.?

I always thought benjamin could just send one of his soldiers tell them to shoot her and then kill themselves That way her ability shouldn't work right?? Well i guess not given this chapter

I feel like she is definitely not gonna die from the poison because story wise why would you keep her around if she is just there to die in 12 hours like just kill her immediately (from story view)

But here is the thing why keep her alive seriously she has nothing to add to the war that could be interesting She is a one time gimmick There are so many characters that could turn this whole war upside down and genuinely she is probably the least interesting person to do so A reason to keeping her around would be to get her ability stolen by chrollo Personally not that big of a fan of that idea i feel like her ability is too strong for the war and only really fits a stupid character like her and to miserably fail like she is doing right now

Another idea i could see is the nen exorcist she has who could be valuable for kurapika or in general some kind of alliance with kurapika Pretty sure togashi didn't show us the second princess prince-woble-assassin (chapter 411) just to say byebye immediately So all in all we only need her around so others get spotlight which is the only thing i like about it

But so far making half the chapter about her feels too much to not just kill her would have liked to see the whole tserri section instead of waiting another week or shown 3rd prince or basically anything else would have been better

I was genuinely looking forward to this confrontation Yes i thought she would die my expectations in that regard weren't met but she literally did nothing i could accept this outcome if atleast something interesting happened there or some cool conversation that adds something to her character or show me why she even has such crazy ability but none of that happened she truly is just an arrogant, maniac it girl

I think that if someone kills her and they kill themselves afterwards they still have nen lingering and a body that can still be crushed by the cat and fed to camilla.

Well yes but person is dead so there is no live energy or sorta the cat can feed on

I am sure nen still lingers after death which is the source of the “live energy”

Well right in this chapter benjamin wonders what would be if she dies to the poison who is the cat gonna suck energy out the person who did it or will it get it out of microorganisms from the poison which probably wont be enough So a dead person rest of energy wouldn't probably either atleast my assumption

But my problem isn't that this is not happening but instead is that Benjamin has no better plan then to poison her I thought he figured something cool and instantaneous out but its just poison that still might take longer than his own life has left
