With regards to Subaru's sage candidacy how do you think it will come up. From No Stella No life we have Echidna mentioning that what if someone could bend witches to their desires and also in Witches After Tea Party we have it explicitly mentioned that the Sage Candidate reigns over Witches.

So I'm wondering what that means. We have seen that Subaru has some resistance/adaption to Authorities and some resistance to miasma. He also seemed pretty well liked by the Witches maybe that has something to do with it. Though I'm still wondering what it entails being the Sage Candidate / the Sage. Yes he has multiple witchfactors and resistance to authorities and miasma but how would he reign over Witches?

We know Flugel somehow got Daphne to make Shaula with him. So maybe he used the ability to prevent her from just eating him? I'm unsure.

Excerpt from Witches After Tea Party:
“—Exactly thirty seconds.”

Having finished counting the 30 seconds she’d promised them, Echidna looked around. There was nothing but men lying motionless in their own blood and vomit. Unfortunately, there hadn’t been any among them who could endure the thirty seconds of hell and qualify to be the Sage that could reign over the six Witches.”
