步步惊心丽百度云

\'Target\'

\'Intent\'

\'Activation\'

Taking more than half of my energy the illusion activates misdirecting the worm to leap at the wrong direction.

"Hah, I finally did it" I exclaim "I fooled the world"

It had taken hundreds of hours and hundreds of attempts but I had done it I had foo...

Pain, the familiar feeling of being swallowed whole and digested happens in an instant.

...

\'Back at the start\' I sigh

"F**K!!!!" I yell "S***T!!!!"

So much effort countless deaths all leading up to finally fooling the world into misdirecting that worm all for it to send another one to me.

The only thing keeping my sanity was the slow growth of power even now I can feel myself edging towards tier 4 and gaining my fifth tail.

My only speculation on why is that all my effort to illusion the worm is growing myself in power.

*BOOOM* Said worm takes this time as the appropriate time to appear

\'Target\'

\'Intent\'

\'Activation\'

I make an illusion of me running away before sitting down and watching the worm barrel towards the illusion.

Another worm appears and this time I\'m ready.

\'Target\'

\'Intent\'

\'Activation\'

This time instead of making the world just misdirect the worm with an Illusion I try to fool it into thinking that that Illusion is me I make it so that every detail is the same while also excluding myself from its sight.

…

It sort of worked I could see for just a moment something solid something that felt real not illusory even to my trained senses

Even as I\'m swallowed and sent back to the beginning a feral grin makes its way to my face.

\'If I can perfect this and trick the world into thinking I have died\'

…

After the hundredth death I stopped counting the deaths and instead started to count my progress in how many times I can deceive the world with my now named solid illusions.

This time the solid illusion lasted a couple minutes leading what was the fourth worm to nowhere before being eaten. The only good thing about the solid illusions is that after they die the world needs to check to make sure it was me which it never is.

This usually takes a couple minutes, of course that isn\'t enough time for my reserves to refill though.

As that was the last of my energy, when the fifth worm appears I just let myself be eaten.

I do this because every time I\'m reset to the beginning my aether reserves are reset to maximum giving me more chances to try.

…

I\'m on the cusp of gaining my fifth tail I can feel it.

Not only can I feel the fifth tail coming in I can also feel how my reserves have more than tripled while my control is being fine tuned.

Where before it took more than half of my reserves to Illuse the world now it took one-eighth allowing me to escape from eight worms before I\'m eaten and sent back to the start.

And that would be if I was only counting the increase in efficiency the tripling of my reserves allowed me to use my solid illusions 24 times as opposed to the eight that I would be able to use with my previous reserves

If I continue like this I will only need to reset about 50 or so more times before I cross that threshold into tier 4.

\'That would be boring just gradual increase sure it would be an increase of power but that would only let me protect my lord slightly better,\' I think to myself

\'Let\'s do something crazy\' thinking that I start my illusion

\'Target, the world\'

\'Intent, while I would normally misdirect my intent now is not to misdirect but I\'ll use the world into believing that the worm is dead\'

\'Activation\'

Pouring all of my strength into the activation it works.

The worm just disappears out of existence like it never even existed to begin with.

All the while I feel a growth in my back.

I had only ever felt this three times in my life so to feel it again exited me.

My fifth tail was growing meaning I had crossed the threshold, I now was a five tailed Kitsune a tier 4 existence.

…

As soon as the tail finished growing my world was turned dark then I was staring at my lord the very reason why I was able to grow a fifth tail.

"Thank you my Lord, you\'ve allowed me to grow beyond my potential you have my greatest gratitude, I thought that I might have to just wait but now I… I was able to break through with my own power instead of just relying on time" I sincerely thank my Lord
