"Ah, this, I can sll the scent of fear. Wow, who would have thought the Slick Ghost’s ability could be unexpectedly useful."
Although the Great Onmyoji opposite didn’t show any flaws on the surface, the Power of Fear bestowed on Dorothy by Hat Senior Sister, the Ruler of Ancient Days, had already given her the answer.
This opponent is daunted; she is fearing .
This feeling greatly surprised the hobody witch.
She originally thought her yokai abilities were quite useless, serving only as a reference for studying demon art. But now, when she used this ability for the first ti as a yokai, she suddenly found it wasn’t as useless as she had imagined.
Master of Spirits and Demons, that is the ability of the Slick Ghost. Though it sounds intimidating, it’s actually summarized into eight words: bluffing, fox exploits the tiger’s might.
Bluffing, in simple terms, is akin to wearing a set of fake branded clothes and renting so luxury cars and watches, packaging oneself as a successful person.
After all, so high-end banquets have admission thresholds. If you can’t even get in, how can you enjoy free food and drinks?
And with a little grooming, the Slick Ghost can attend the banquet with perfect deanor. Seeing such a display, the doorman wouldn’t dare to ask more questions; he’d imdiately open the gate and park, forgoing any identity verification.
Of course, rely sneaking into the banquet is far from enough; to perfectly blend in, you must leverage advantages, or in other words, fox exploits the tiger’s might.
In these special banquets with entry thresholds, guests tend to lower their guard, subconsciously assuming that everyone present belongs to the sa class. In such large gatherings, it’s impossible for everyone to know each other.
Therefore, exploiting this psychology with so manipulation makes it easy to mingle without notice.
For instance, by greeting guests as a friend of the host and then visiting the host as a friend of a guest, both parties assu you’re the other’s friend and treat you courteously.
In this way, everyone will give you so face, and the perfect condition to freeload is achieved.
The principle is almost the sa; it’s just that it changes slightly when transford into a yokai ability.
The bluffing ability enhances Dorothy’s aura, and once used, she becos very charismatic.
However, this fake aura can only deceive those with not much disparity; if the power gap is too wide, the other side might see through her essence directly.
But what if this fake aura is substantively filled?
Even if the fillers are borrowed...
For example, when the ability of the Master of Spirits and Demons is activated during the Night Parade of Hyakki, as long as the hyakki keep silent, the Slick Ghost appears as the genuine King of Hyakki, Master of Spirits and Demons, to unaware outsiders.
That the fox exploits the tiger’s might allows Dorothy to directly borrow the demonic power of other hyakki, an effect she hadn’t anticipated before.
The hobody witch ventured out this ti to cause trouble, so she brought everyone she could along. Besides Ibuki Yuuki, the Mountain Ghost King of Monsters, Dorothy also brought her good sisters Sophia and Audrey.
She thought this lineup was sufficient, but seeing her about to head out, Spider Teacher and Aunt Miko were uneasy to let her wander off recklessly, so they each sent an incarnation to follow her.
The yokai Rokurokubi behind her was Spider Teacher’s puppet incarnation. As a Puppet Master, Spider Teacher lacked no incarnations. This Rokurokubi was crafted newly, specifically for better protecting the precious apprentice with a combat specialized incarnation.
Furthermore, to et the apprentice’s Night Parade of Hyakki goal, Noelle Rose, who took Arachne, the Spider Demon, as an Evolution Template, surprisingly accepted Aoandon’s Hyakki Inheritance live, producing an incarnation of a Great Demon of Japan, Rokurokubi.
The teacher really.... Dorothy cried to death....
As for Aunt Miko.....
As a prominent figure in Japan, Yae Miko’s true form couldn’t be easily moved. She was too conspicuous. But what major figure doesn’t have so white gloves to handle matters?
Besides the crafty abnormality incarnation of the Judgnt Court’s four terrors, Aunt Miko also has another yokai incarnation.
Great Demon—Lady Hachishaku.
If craftiness represents Yae Miko’s cunning nature, then Lady Hachishaku embodies her fierce nature as a witch of the Ghost Clan.
This yokai incarnation was tall and fierce, helping Yae Miko with a lot of unspeakable dirty work, such as eliminating dissidents and committing murder and robbery.
Well, as a high society person, facing power struggles and interest disputes, you naturally act amiably, leaving room for reconciliation and eting again. As for behind-the-scenes....
Hehe... if a yokai loses control and hurts soone, what’s that to Lord Yae?
In summary, this incarnation was once infamous across Japan, with the Yin Yang Bureau failing to capture her multiple tis.
However, as Yae Miko’s identity and status stabilized, few dared to offend her, and this white glove had no chances to appear, having been dormant for a long ti.
