thusly
In this manner
Thusly is a jocular or emphatic variant of thus, meaning "in this way" or "like so": He arranged the flowers thusly.
The -ly ending is technically redundant since thus is already an adverb, which gives thusly a slightly playful or mock-formal tone.
Some consider it nonstandard, but it appears in casual speech and writing.
