Now that he had got the names behind his ambush, he first wanted to deal with the people close to him, in his mansion, in the family.
...
To make his plan execute in a smooth manner Terias decided to put on an alias, and make use of that secret identity.
"If I directly confront them then there only option is to fight back or confess their crimes, there is no third option for them."
Even though all of his family members came under the Viscount family title and were members of it, Terias could still punish them severely as he was the man in power, in both political position and physical prowess.
They had only two options when confronted with evidence against them. They could either confess and fully submit to Terias or fight and die resisting. In the case they submitted, they would still be punishable by death according to laws, if Terias desires to execute them, they would all be dead.
There small chance of leaving alive without punishment was mercy from Terias.
In case they decide to fight back, they could kill him and fully take control over family, gaining the noble title too.
...
However, the chances of them being prepared in a room with all their warriors together was the only way to kill Terias, which was unlikely to happen, leaving the only option for them which is to submit.
Terias did not need their submission, he had decided to clean the province off of the people in his opposition before he finally leaves. So, it would be easy for him to come back and use the resources if he ever desired.
For now, he had decided on his first target, Lisa. Nope, not to kill her, he wanted her to accompany and aid him. A beautiful and cheating wife of his enemy could be a very good spy.
Terias, after thinking for a while, decided to write a secret letter to her, which would have an unanimous sender name, for now.
He would not have his butler send it to Lisa, rather he would order Maya or Tina to leave it at Lisa's place.
Terias wrote a letter containing the evidence against Lisa's husband and enveloped it. It was time for a meal, one of them or even both of the maids would come in his room. He rarely ate outside, similar to the Viscount as it took lots of effort in isolation to practice with ki. He did not want to break his concentration by going out.
...
Tina had arrived together with Maya, they began to serve the food for Terias, as they were the personal attendant of Terias only.
"Here, send this letter to the correct place" After completing his meal, he ordered Tina to deliver the letter. Being a good and obedient servant, Tina did not question her master, she left the room with the letter.
"Who would be this courageous to leave a letter meant for another person at Viscount's." Tina mumbled as she wondered about the person. She assumed that someone had wrongly delivered the letter to Terias.
She read the name of receiver on the envelope of letter. She could barely read and write, though all of the servants could do it well as they were trained from young age.
"Lisa Avan " Tina read out loud as she pronounced the name written on the letter.
"For Lady Lisa? I know her attendant. Let's just give this to her attendant. "
She decided to give the letter to Lisa's attendant, the rest would be done by the attendant herself.
...
Terias was waiting for the next step of the plan as he began to continue his training session.
His training had two parts, the first part where he practiced and familiarised himself with the breathing techniques and the second where he trained in combat techniques.
He was more invested in the combat training part as it was super fun to practice those techniques, especially reinforce.
With reinforce, he could boost physical stats of his body as a whole, he could jump better, run faster, lift heavier. He had not tried the healing from injuries in this state but that too would increase accordingly.
...
Due to his daily and consistent routine, he started getting a new prompt from his notepad ability.
Reinforce - 140%
From what he understood, the percentage referred to increase in strength. The basic reinforce was already able to increase the strength of a warrior by a hundred percent.
After the initial hundred percent, the rest of the increase in strength depended upon the user's proficiency in technique.
A master in technique could go upto three to four times of their initial strength, which would be very overpowered considering their initial strength.
A warriors initial strength is already more than twice of the non ki users, the normal person. Another three to four times of increase would put them in a leagues of beast like creature.
Though the amount of effort and time it took to reach master level was demotivating. The level of ki control required for that much efficiency could put him in the master rank itself.
...
There was also his Ying Yang technique which did not see any increase in the progress bar. It was not increasing as Terias did not do anything with woman in his training.
The same went for his skill called sense. Sense was a custom made skill by the Viscount, he improved it by himself. The threshold to enter the basic utilisation of this skill was high, very much so.
Terias had given a try to beginner version of different skills from his library to see if it helps. There were too many to try the effects from each of them. He could only stick to Reinforce, the one he believed to be the most effective in combat.
...
As Terias continued the training with breathing exercise, he could not help but remember the pear shaped body of Tina.
He had difficulty controlling his urges, probably due to the ritual. The fact that he saw Tina's ass in full glory was also a great factor.
"I thought I could wait till my time with Lisa. Now that it has come to this, it's better to have Tina and calm myself."
Terias had his desires, as the beautiful woman he once fucked and another who watched him in action kept appearing before him, he could not keep suppressing his lust.
"But then I need to have proper arrangements and a good enough reason to push her with it."
A good enough reason was needed to initiate the talks, he did not want to use his position, not too much.
"Shall I try the same thing that I tried with Maya?"
He thought perhaps commenting about dress and asking to strip could be effective for Tina too, and she would know what Terias was talking about with little hints from his side.
"No, I don't think that was good, it was too direct. Although Tina would not reject it, she would not want that either."
He had gave it a thought and realised that the process with Maya was not smooth. It was too sudden and Maya also wanted it.
...
"Maybe I should directly ask her to pleasure me? That would not be uncommon, I believe most of the nobles do it."
Unable to come with a fullproof plan, he kept thinking of ideas and rejected it by himself.
"How about calling both Maya and Tina? I could try doing Tina, that could possibly increase the jealousy in Maya and would induce a healthy competition between them."
He came up with a decent idea in a long run.
Finally, he decided upon the best possible option he could think of as he made a decision to get them both together before starting his plans.
The plan was to get Tina to strip and more while he randomly gave her a task or two, which would help him to achieve his shady goals.
(Sorry, Been skipping the updates every other day, would try to do it on time.)
