By your logic anon, can you explain why Shalltear backed off Brain when he saw Climb? Why not just kill Brain in 1 hit and avoid harming Climb?

Brain is spared because he is always sticking to Climb, and anyone from Nazarick knows if a fight happens they might accidentally just catch Climb in the crossfire. Just look at Demiurge, 1 spell and he killed 2 Blue Roses, when he thought they would survive based on estimation on Evileye.

With the way the summons were trampling the battlefield, should they even approach Brain there's a high chance Climb would caught in the AOE. That's also assuming that they have a specific kill order on Brain to approach that 1 person out of 80k on the battlefield.
