When the message appeared, Strax''s face froze for a mere second, but it was enough for him to be hit.
The blow was so powerful that itpletely shattered the scales enhanced by his assimtion with Tiamat, and it also... severed Strax''s arm.
"Uuugghhhtt!!!" he screamed in pain, gritting his teeth to endure it as he assessed the overall situation...
''This isn''t going to work!!'' he shouted internally, seeing that not only was he injured, but Beatrice, Monica, and Samira also had some wounds. Rogue and Veronica were rtively okay, but their mana was dwindling with each passing second.
[Danger!!]
"KRRRIIIIIII!!!!" With the scream of the Demon Spider, a wave of dark, pulsating energy emanated from its body, throwing everyone against the rocky walls of the cave.
The impact was brutal; the creature''s murderous aura began to seep into their minds and spirits, causing everyone to tremble in fear.
''Ouroboros! Grant me the maniption of ck Ice; I will seal it!'' Strax shouted to his Dragon, who could do nothing but agree...

"She... she entered Berserk mode!" Samira gasped, forcing herself to rise despite the pain. But Straxpletely ignored her.
''Maybe I won''t make it out of here alive... pff... I was arrogant... at least you all survived...'' Strax thought as he saw the image on his system screen...

"You all… get out of here," he ordered, his voice unyielding, though he struggled to control the pain coursing through his body. His ck ice arm slowly took shape, hardening to rece what had been lost.
"No! Strax, we''re not leaving you here alone!" Samira shouted, the pain evident in her eyes but her determination unwavering. Beside her, Beatrice and Monica refused to retreat, even with their strengths depleted and their bodies injured.

"Strax, stop this! Don''t even think about sacrificing yourself!" Rogue interjected, her eyes zing with indignation.
But Strax was already resolute. With a swift movement, he raised his hands and summoned the magic of ck Ice he had just mastered, forming dark crystals around them. "Forgive me. This is the only way to ensure you stay alive."
Before any of them could react, the ck ice spread like roots, enveloping each of the warriors in icy cocoons. Their resistance was palpable, but the ck ice seemed to absorb their energy, dulling their efforts until they werepletely sealed.
"You need to live," he murmured, his voice heavy with emotion, as he watched them finally immobilized but safe.
Now, alone, he faced the Demon Spider, which advanced with the destructive energy of a being in Berserk mode. The creature wasted no time inunching one of its deadly legs toward Strax, who narrowly dodged, focusing on channeling the maniption of ck Ice into his swords.
''Maybe I won''t make it out of this...'' Strax thought, feeling the crushing weight of Buer''s aura as the system continued to emit danger alerts. ''I was arrogant... at least you all survived...''
With a fierce shout, he unleashed a strike with all the remaining energy he had, sending a st of ck ice that exploded against the creature, momentarily freezing some of its legs. But Buer did not hesitate; with a roar, it shattered the ice around it and delivered a direct blow to Strax, sending him crashing against the wall, where he collided brutally.
Feeling his vision blur, Strax realized he was nearing his limits. His dragon scales and ck ice arm were beginning to give way. The rocky floor seemed to pull at him, the weight of pain and exhaustion impossible to ignore.
"Let''s see how long I can hold out," he murmured to himself as he prepared for the final confrontation. With a war cry, he charged at the Spider, channeling all of his newly acquired power into every strike and movement.
The ws and fangs of the creature attacked him in a frenzy, forcing him to dodge and block with a speed he could barely maintain. With his ck Ice arm, he managed to strike one of the monster''s legs, freezing it instantly and shattering it into pieces.
But the Spider didn''t seem weakened.
"KRIIIII!!!!" It let out another scream, unleashing a st of demonic energy that hit Strax squarely, tearing through his armor and opening deep gashes in his body. He fell backward but immediately got back up, driven by the fierce determination to protect the women sealed in ice.
Each blow hended was a fraction of what he needed to win, yet he kept fighting, even as the pain intensified and his vision began to darken. He knew his body was at its limit, but there was no other option.
With every second, the battle grew more brutal and desperate. Strax unleashed onest st of ice at the Spider, sealing one of its legs to the ground, but Buer used its other legs to free itself and charged violently, throwing Strax against the wall with an impact that shook the ground.
He was nearly out of strength, barely able to move. His ck Ice arm was shattered, and his body was covered in wounds. But as his eyes began to close, a message appeared before him, glowing on his system screen.
[You havepleted the requirements. Updating Definitive Lineage...]
Strax felt a new wave of energy within him, a primordial force he hadn''t known he possessed. His blurred vision began to clear, and he realized something inside him was changing, evolving.
His lineage was being updated, which meant he could gain a new chance, a final opportunity to face the Demon Spider and win.
"You can''t die!!!" Strax heard a cry from within him... It was... the little Dragon, Kamos, shouting.
"That''s right! Stop thinking foolish thoughts!!" Ouroboros shouted in unison, "You have to learn to trust your future wives more!" Tiamat yelled, and...

With each new update, Strax''s transformation waspleting.
When Strax felt the intense changes in his body, a new surge of power coursed through his veins. The ck ice arm that had once reced his lost limb began to crack and fragment. Each piece fell slowly, revealing the flesh beneath—not an ordinary arm, but a rejuvenated, stronger, vibrant arm, covered in a reddish hue and scales that shimmered with a dark glow.
The system continued sending notifications, but he barely registered the words. The transformation was just beginning.
[Initiating transformation]
His body began to expand, every muscle fiber strengthening, bones cracking and growing.
He felt a pressure in his chest, as if his heart had be an uncontroble furnace.
Suddenly, his skin was reced by ck scales with crimson edges, each one shimmering in the light of the Infernal mes that erupted from within him. It was as if he were being remade, each cell of his body recreated to withstand an ancestral, brutal, and relentless force.
His eyes, once human, now burned with an intense gold, the sclerapletely ck. As he opened and closed his eyes, he saw more than he had ever thought possible—he saw beyond shadows, beyond illusions. For the first time, his senses reached the level of aplete dragon.
Strax felt his teeth grow, sharp and pointed like des. A powerful jaw that he knew could crush rocks and bones with a single bite. As he ran his tongue over these new teeth, he tasted his own demonic blood, strong and bittersweet, fueling this new form.
His ws grew, sharp and menacing, each one like an unyielding de, capable of cutting through anything in his path.
He felt... so good...
Ouroboros, with a sharp and teasing smile, crossed her arms and assessed Strax''s draconic form. "Now this is what I was talking about. This is the true greatness of a dragon." She winked at him, proud, and gave a light punch to his scaly arm, which didn''t budge an inch.
Tiamat, on the other hand, watched him with an intense and ravenous gaze, her eyes fixed on Strax''s ck and red scales. She took a deep breath, and Strax noticed the husky tone in her voice as she murmured, "You are... absolutely magnificent." She crossed her legs and let out a moan that mixed desire and pride; the crossing of her legs was to hide something simple...
She waspletely soaked! And it wasn''t just her who was intoxicated, thoroughly excited.
Ouroboros was trembling with arousal, briefly closing her eyes to keep from losing herposure, allowing herself to feel the pulsing energy that filled the cave. His scent, now intensified by his new form, was irresistible; an aroma that blended power, masculinity, and a subtle ferocity.
"That smell… is… intoxicating," she murmured, her voice trembling as she moved closer to Strax. The excitement was palpable in her body, causing her to move more boldly; she was still an animal... seeing such a well-developed male... she was melting inside with the urge to mate. Each step she took toward him was loaded with clear intention, a need that could no longer be ignored.
Ouroboros looked at Strax with burning eyes, admiring his ck and red scales that reflected the light in a nearly hypnotic way.
"You are no longer just a man, Strax. You are a dragon… and that is everything I''ve ever wanted," she said, her rapid breath revealing just how excited she was about his transformation.
"Fuck this shit of a body, when this is over you''re going to fuck me even if it''s in spiritual form! I need you inside me NOW! FINISH THIS QUICK! AND FUCK ME FOR MILLENNIUMS!" She shouted, the sound reverberating throughout the space.
