Why do you ask who do you think will die next chapter? I find that the characters aren’t as loved when they are brought or made just to die. Much like the walking dead, extras die often. Named characters you have to like, to care if they go. When named characters die so often it kinda lessens the effect.
Adam is going to become a great general, he has experience the pain and suffering of making great ideas that backfire and his hesitation has taught him that if he hesitated it means death for those around him. This is marking him to be a great general, something for the mc to not foreseen but to appreciate for in the future Adam will be seen as one of many pillars of humanity.
