Training

Flipping back to chapter four Gage sits in the chair, downing that last of his water bottle he reads over the last of the guidance for Protego, Greater. After about ten minuets Gage finds what he needs to do, the spell reaching a second level known as a 'Tier'. This would make Protego be able to reach 'Tier IV' Effectivly granting him a new level of protection and power. To make this second level of power Gage is required to do two things simultaniusly.

First he must still control his energy internally as he would normally cast the spell but on top of that he must also scribe a rune in the air with the excess energy that he wants to inbune the spell with. The rune is not complicated, a few simple swipes in the air being enough to draw it out but it would be difficult to learn to draw the rune at the same time as controlling his energy internally. Heading back to the training circle he starts, drawing his energy into a ring in front of himself while also attepmting to draw the symbol with his hands. At first nothing happens, the shield forming normally but nothing else.

Flipping over to chapter five he reads though some of the basic rules finding that it would be easier than Protego's base level to learn. Animus as a whole is simply the minipulation of your energy so that it can manipulate an object from a distance. If that object happens to be heavy it takes more energy. Currently Animus can only lift 50lbs work of things at its current level but by using more energy Gage is able to increase that weight upward to 500lbs. Dragging the stacks of weights over from the rack against the wall Gage stacks five 100lb weighted plate on top of one another until they are one big pile of metal.

Gathering his energy into his hand Gage forms it in the same shape as his hand, increasing its size with the amount of energy that he inserts into it. Grinning he watches through his own form of reiatsu sight as the hand grows, getting larger and larger with the energy that he puts into it. Reaching outwards with his energy based hand floating it like a cloud until he is able touch the plates. Wrapping his hands around the plates he focuses as he pulls it up, the plates wiggling slightly before they slam back down.

Making the symbol with his fingers he compares it to the pictures in the book, making little adjustments to how tight he is holding the position with his hand before he heads to the training circle, dragging a chair behind him and slidding it into the middle of the ring. Funneling his energy into his hand he spirals it in his palm as he has always done for this technique. Pulling his hand in to his chest he slowly pushes it forward until his palm touches the top of the chair while he holds his left hand in the binding form. From the point where he hand makes contact with the chair ropes of golden light erupt from his hand snaking their way around the chair.

Sinching tightly around the the chair the wood started to crack and splinter before the entire seat explodes with the force of the restraint. While it may be strong enough to shatter a chair it would not be strong enough to hurt anyone on his level of strength. It would deffinatly be strong enough to hold down someone strong though, at least as strong as him. Restarting the technique when the golden ropes fade away he makes all the motions again, this time though he looks around to make sure no one is watching. Gently touching himself on the chest the ropes explode out and wrap around his body sealing him up like a net. "Gah!" he knew it was going to do it but even so he was mildly scared of how it felt.
