The elderly, golden magician would find himself all alone once again. This was because he decided that he wished to learn a few new spells and he was not the type that liked to create magic for the first time with an audience. So in order to work new spells he had found a forest that seemed to have little to no foot traffic so this is where he would focus.
About a year or more back, back at the beginning of the political conflict in Kina that led to a massacre, the magician of muscle had learned how to incorporate the light type of magic into his spellwork. He had one spell that utilized this but it seemed to be kind of a common sort of magic just used to inhibit the sense of sight. He wanted to better incorporate light so that he can use it rather to create illusions or to possibly even further inhibit the sense of sight in various ways. Yet for now he resigned himself to focusing on illusions.
So for this first sorcery that he was thinking of would need to work on confusing an opponent so that they do not know which incoming attack is the true one. If the old man could increase the odds of an attack landing then that could increase the odds of him having a quick battle. While he could probably handle a sustained conflict he was not particularly suited for it at the moment so he needed some spells suited for small quick battles which he was expecting to see quite a few of. This experience comes from his battle with El in the Palace when it was a small short bout between two people instead of a drawn out conflict with multiple entities.
For this particular illusion, it would be made specifically to match his physical combat form. Since he had gain the combat form he has been focusing on physical attacks more than his magic. This was fine when he was fighting cannon fodder but he needs to use all of his strengths and not rely on just pure power and brute force. So this is one of many soon to come solutions to this problem that has surfaced to the old man. Using light he can create illusionary limbs that can make it difficult to tell which limb is the true one. The fists will be above and below his true fist but with this being an illusion his opponents will most likely be wary of if he will use the same position each time despite the spell not switching up the positions. The first was the true illusion while every use after it will be more of a gamble for both of the participants.
The magician would begin just by trying to create one arm. His first attempt was shaky and barely visible while the second attempt was just an elbow and missing most of the arm entirely. The first day of attempts would meet various results that were similar in the outcome. He was never one to be confused for a prodigy unlike his twin so new spells always took a while for him to learn. He was still quick but it took him three days till he had a solid illusionary arm coming from his shoulder just above his real one.
It would take only 2 days to get the illusion to cast two copies simultaneously WIth each cast he would shout out the words"phantom fists" since this was the activation phrase. This would prove to be quite simple than the initial illusion mostly due to the fact that the illusions where just copying what his real arm was doing the exact time it acts. It would be much more difficult to cast and control if each illusion was doing it’s own thing.
While is was far from a finishing move his first spell was now done and he felt he could use it successfully. Now it was time to start focusing on the next illusion.
