Guide wrote into his contract with the guild nothing passed kissing. And, so far, all espers have respected that. There's always an esper on standby to stop the guiding if the esper getting guided tries to do more.
I ain't here to defend profundis I hated that shit too but girl, chp. 23 literally is assault. Mc said multiple time he DOES NOT want to do contact guiding and ML keep on pressing him to do it, yes they haven't gone pass kissing but ASSAULT IS STILL HAPPENING
