Many people probably hadn't considered this level of selfishness, but Kadi said it blatantly.
It made the Great Mentor a bit awkward, as if he hadn't considered the fate of the Guru Mountain Monsters when opting for such a radical approach.
Kadi's words seemed to question the Great Mentor directly: "Are you just going to leave us here, regardless of whether we live or die? Did you consider our feelings when you made this choice? Do you realize how important you are to all of us? Don't you value your own life? Even if you don't value yourself, have you thought about how the other monsters will cope?"
All these questions suddenly hit the Great Mentor. He hadn't considered any of these issues.
Indeed, these monsters were some of the world's greatest fighters, but that was before they became monsters. Their strength may not have changed markedly, but they were very different mentally now. Their psyches were incredibly fragile, to the point of shattering at the slightest touch.
