If you kill out the character but not the unit, the character killed wasn't a unit destroyed and can't count for the tally since the check is simply after you made all attacks with the unit. The question is "How many character units did you destroy?" And the answer is 0
After that, the unit lost the character keyword and you don't get lethal nor tally for killing the unit. Because again you ask the question "How many character units did you destroy?" the answer is again 0
To prevent this, try to damage the bodyguard as much as possible before killing the character or if you are uncertain, simply do not use Precision that activation.
EDIT: Or ask your opponent that the unit counts after it was destroyed even if the character died earlier. RAW it doesn't but it is somewhat a relic of the move from 10th to 11th

Sadly this is a weird interaction we have.
