Finding my lord was not that hard, I just needed to follow his scent. He was over talking with the new summons. Something about the population... Nothing that I need to concern with though.
Once a lull in the conversation was reached I appeared next to my Lord.
"I have decided my Lord, I will choose the Illusion path of evolution."
"Ok, I'll start the evolution now, be sure to take note of what happens." My lord states.
I go to reply but after a flick of my Lords hand he disappears from view.
...
I opened my eyes to a great desert.
Nothing but sand in all directions.
'My lord said I would evolve towards illusions.' I thought, 'What sort of situations would stimulate my illusions.'
Just as I was thinking a worm like thing popped out of the ground.
It was huge not just in the its bigger than me huge but as big as two redwoods stacked on top of each other. And that huge worm was barreling towards me.
My immediate reaction was to evade and get out of its sight, so that's what I did.
I waited as the worm grew closer to me before I leaped to the side transforming into my humanoid form for more reach. As soon as my hands touched the ground I summersaulted away again finally evading the worms attack.
I transformed back into my fox form then dashed away.
...
"haah, haah" I panted it had been more than an hour of continuous evading and running with no sign of the worm being shaken off.
During that time I had tried on numerous occasions to use my Illusions to shake the worm off my tail but it would just not work.
It was as if the worm was being told where I was at all times.
There was no way my illusions are ineffective. Even creatures with no sensory organs can still be effected . 'It's like the world itself is guiding the enemy toward me'
'wait...' I thought 'If the worm itself isn't immune then the world itself must be guiding it towards me'
'I need to test this' I think to myself
Casting a quick illusion on the worm, I make it seem as though I took a right then I excluded my actual self from the worms perception. All the while I went forward while watching it like a hawk.
Lo and behold the worm for just a tiny second actually looked right and seemed like it received directions to the exact position of mine because it didn't just go to where I was but it spit acid at my exact location.
'Acid, that's new" I thought to myself right after dodging 'And convenient, it's like the world wants me to think in that direction'
'If it does want me to think in that direction than who am I to deny the world my attempt' I think before focusing.
The first step to casting an illusion is to define the target, in this case the world but what is the world is it the actual world or is it everything within or is it the leylines that run across the world, 'I need to define this before I can even continue' I think
'Lets try the whole planet first' thinking that I define the whole planet as the target.
It takes all my focus but there is something so I dig deeper I turn myself invisible.
pαпdα-ňᴏνêι·сóМ "AHH!!" I spit out blood the pain is immeasurable but I can't let that distract me I need to keep evading so I grit my teeth and pick up my speed to make up for the distance I lost while spitting blood.
'Seems like that worked but I'm just to weak to effect the whole thing' I murmur to myself.
'Lets do the same thing this time but something easier'
I grit my teeth and prepare to cast the illusion
First target the world.
Then the intent, appearing a few feet to the left
Lastly the activation....
"AHH f**k" my leg was pierced by acid losing all mobility.
