Perhaps because Riezel had been too violent during the shikigami exorcism rituals of the Ten Shadows Technique, his subjugation of every shikigami in the Ten Shadows Technique could be called perfect to the extreme.
Subjugation meant conquest. With Riezel's strength, dealing with the shikigami of the Ten Shadows Technique naturally made the entire process completely one-sided, even with the final shikigami.

"This is bad!"
Cold sweat ran down Fushiguro Megumi's face at the
