Plus all the purebloods would start shiting bricks is the knowlage about one of them turning squib and maybe genderbending them comes to light

okay hear me out what if by taking it slowly it actually slowly transformed the target into a female squib. kinda poetic if it were to make these villains became exactly the thing they hate and in a form that becomes subserviently to their enemy. From a writers standpoint I would put it at a not 100% survival rate so that you don't have to keep all of them and pick and choose the good ones. Also magical justification there are several avenues to take such as the healthy part of the magical bond being the wife so while magic is drained it attempts to use what is left in the target morphs towards the healthy side. Another is magic backlash on not upholding their oaths to their partner. or other reasons could be used too (just magic unknown, bella clever possibility etc) if quick well same things could happen

Thanks for the chapter! This is a tough one. On the one hand, I firmly believe in Not leaving loose ends. On the other hand, there are some interesting psychological tactics in going slow and leaving him alive, as pointed out by other commenters.

Too risky to leave him a live. Harry’s enemies could find out, and plan a counter measure. That’s why I voted to end him.

Feels a little of vanity. There's a certain impressiveness in people knowing what you can do, and knowong they are unable to stop it. Of course, that is VERY dependant on them being ACTUALLY unable to stop you.

Dogan

An unnecessary loose end. I dont know why people are voting to leave him alive.

Harry could undo them, yes. He would have to do so slowly and carefully if he didn't want to kill the person he was unbinding himself from, but he COULD do it.

Thunder

Interesting question, not sure if it's been talked about previously: Is it possible to undo the bonds that Harry is making?

Leaving Rudolphus alive would run the risk of him blabbing to a guard that his magic was stolen. If that guard decides to humor that thought as anything less than raving lunacy then there is a chance that someone tries to look into it. Best just to let people think he finally just gave up on life and died. Though I do also like the idea of framing Tom and using that to help claim more female death munchers too. Perhaps a nice little happy medium between these two choices could accomplish both?

Don't care about mercy, but I am voting for a kill because he needs to kill the Azkaban crew before Voldemort busts them out. As the creator of the Dark Mark, Voldy might be able to figure out that someone did something similar to drain Rudolphus if he hears what happened and how it happened.
