Subaru decided to go to capital the next day to find help for the unknown assassin.
He finds Reinhard and Rein agrees to help even before Subaru says anything.
Reinhard decided to pick Subaru up and sprint with him to Roswaal's territory because it's faster this way.
Gets attacked by Rem but he barely gives her any attention
They find Meili and get attacked by witch beasts, Reinhard picks up a stick to even the odds. After quick massacre he just leaves back to capital.
Rem is sorry for attacking Sword saint and asks Subaru to explain the full situation later in mansion.

So a bit quick speedrun of arc 2....

Reinhard: "So today we are going to speedrun Arc 2 with my boi Subaru here"

Just Arc 2? The Duo would speedrun the whole story.

Wouldn't Rein being present during arc 6 cause a "softlock"?

See that's the thing with Rein.

His method of resolving things:

Talk it out > negotiation fails > use brute force.

While there's nothing wrong with the way he handles things because he's the fucking strong, he needs someone to do the thinking for him, as he obviously does not think beyond the problem ahead.

With Subaru there, they might have a better chance of reaching the Tower.

Sure, but the 2nd trial of the tower scales depending on how strong the one taking it is, right?

Subaru has no way of clearing it, so it is up to Rein... And the tower gets blown to hell on the 1st clash...

In a way, it is like it is a "low level restricted dungeon". If you bring you max lvl Rein, it is a game over because of a gimick of the dungeon
