Chapter 28: Chapter 26: All according to keikaku

Cornering an enemy is a complicated matter.

There is a reason people say a cornered beast is more dangerous but Violet didn’t particularly care about increased danger. It was more amusing to see the self-righteous lose all hope. The pleasure of seeing their eyes become lifeless when they lose any resistance is like the finest spice for the demoness.

This is why she went the route she had when planning this attack; it would be easy to just crush them by dropping two trees on them. But where was the fun in that? Instead she would rather start this war by spreading the fear that should be felt when one hears the term {Asura Yakuza} or more specifically {Female Executive}.

First they would find a decently powerful sect then devastated them.

Violet didn’t want to go top of the top as that would likely incline many of the sects below or of the same rank to drop out. Because of this, between a top-tier medium to a low-tier large sect would be the ideal target for the small strikeforce. Luckily for them such a sect had foolishly taken up a point meaning they didn’t even have to particularly go out of their way to sneak about. Although that sect did have some fortifications which would be inconvenient for most… It only made it easier to fulfil what she wanted.

After finding their target came the first phase where they would need to hit with a solid first blow in order to stun them; this was easily achieved by just riding a tree into their base. The tree she chose actually managed to clear out half their camp while also acting as an impassable barrier. This was a great result but it seemed Alabaster also enjoyed the ride since she closed her eyes proceeding to hug the tree. It also appeared she was so excited she ended up biting her lip a bit too hard leading to her being a bit slow to react for the next part. But, that was fine… Violet was more than enough.

The second phase was a followup on the first by taking advantage of their stuned selves. To put it simply they would just hit them hard to reinforce the idea that the fools wouldn’t stand a chance in a straight up confrontation like the cultivators wanted. Her new [True Demon Arts] did wonders in this regard but then came the more troubling third phase…

She would need to give them a way to escape.

Currently they were very clearly trapped in with her thanks to the walls which was actually perfect for setting the scene of the sect members being a cornered beast. Unfortunately in order to truly crush their spirit  this was pointless. They still had the thoughts of resistance due to being trapped in with her while if it was less heavily fortified like other camps it would be far more likely they would just retreat as the third phase wanted her to let them do. Luckily the elder attempted to attack her with some sort of artefact which she managed to make use of to destroy the wall opposite of herself; like foolish mortals chasing after immortality that they are, they immediately ran away to ‘escape’.

Even better than that small success was the fact Violet finally figured out what her new weapon did; it’s ability was simple but very effective! It allowed her to cover her weakness against the more ‘magically inclined’ opponents. A simple flick of her wirst and BAM the dumb spell is destroyed. With this she could likely show them turtles a thing or two about the strength of an Oni!

Of course, phase four was to make them fully aware that they are encircled by the forces they managed to recruit earlier with Qin’s help. These would be led by Slate’s mommy Quartz who Violet only just met. She seemed fun enough (her own mommy seemed to like her) plus she was the most experienced and highest ranked individual after herself. It only made sense to leave the task of leaving the final ambush to such an individual over her Ashue & Slate.

Phase four’s purpose was mostly for her own amusement… To crush their spirit. See, if you suddenly attack them they will think they had no hope to begin with so ironically will be more willing to accept it. If you dangle the opportunity to live only to snatch it away, though, it becomes far more interesting.

To put it simply, they will cease to function as warriors.
