BS Rita had quieted down, but Deceitful Bloom did not fully relax. The eyes illuminated by the Flower of Deceit continued to flicker, signaling that the being under the influence was still resolutely strong-willed and difficult to sway. Moreover, Deceitful Bloom's words had gravely contradicted BS Rita's very nature.
Having planted the Flower of Deceit in various beings, Deceitful Bloom knew the best way to use this skill. For those with an unshakably strong will, she would align the Flower of Deceit's influence with the target's character, instincts, desires, and goals at the moment. Only in doing so could she reduce resistance and increase the chances of success, allowing the target to retain their initiative and strength rather than becoming a useless puppet.
From the first time Deceitful Bloom saw BS Rita, she noticed something odd—BS Rita's name had a note beside it: [Delirium Mode]. This could explain why she seemed to be in such an odd state.
