When faced with this matter, Violet intended to rely on a brutally simple technique to resolve the problem.
Because she knew there were only two options at her disposal: a more gentle approach that made her appear as a saint or a rudely straightforward one.
The terror of violence made everyone bow to her, and fear her power.
If she could evoke fear, it would alleviate many problems, just like how people refrain from venturing into places of darkness and abyss out of fear.
Displaying violence was not always wrong. By utilizing brutality and bloodshed she was demonstrating the purpose that lay behind them.
That was the course of action that Violet had decided to take.
Therefore, in this situation, since she had already killed the mercenary leader, she might as well arrest all the remaining people without further ado!
Even if the townsfolk looked at her with fear and prejudice because of this event, so what?
