The field was still covered in dust and smoke from the previous explosion, but the energy in the air was palpable. Strax was tired, but his smile was still huge, reflecting the excitement of fighting the forces that challenged him. He knew it had been intense so far, but he hadn't yet seen everything his wives were capable of. They were adapting, improving and now, he knew, it was time for the vampires to enter the battle. The moment the field was covered in dust, Daniela, Cassandra and Belatrix, the three powerful vampires, positioned themselves around him, emerging from different directions, their presences as silent as the night. They were waiting, watching Strax's every move. But the instant the dust cleared, they advanced in a coordinated attack. Daniela was the first to move, her speed surpassing any human being, a true predator of the night. With blazing eyes, she launched herself towards Strax, her sharp teeth glimmering as she prepared a relentless attack. Cassandra, with her blood manipulation skills, used her magic to create a blood blade as sharp as steel and advanced in the same direction. Belatrix, in the background, bowed briefly, summoning a curtain of shadows around Strax, trying to limit his visibility. "This is going to be interesting," Strax muttered to himself, his eyes lighting up with the brilliance of the challenge. When Daniela arrived in front of him, her speed was impressive, but Strax wasn't scared in the slightest. With a smile on his face, he used his Increased Thinking Speed to predict her movement before she took any action. At the exact moment she leapt towards him, Strax leaned back, dodging with supernatural agility, and, with one fluid movement, grabbed Daniela in a hug, pinning her against his body. Daniela tried to break free, but Strax held her tightly, as if she were an immovable stone. She struggled, but he held her firm. "You're very impetuous, Daniela," Strax laughed, and with a quick, precise movement, he spun her in the air and threw her towards Cassandra, who was advancing with the blood blade ready to strike. The impact was strong, and Daniela was thrown towards Cassandra, who tried to use her blood manipulation to prevent her friend from falling into her hands, but it wasn't enough. Daniela was thrown backwards, hitting the ground with considerable force. They were beginning to understand that the key to defeating him was not strength, but patience and precision. It was at this point that Strax realized the true nature of the battle. He was no longer just testing his skills. He was being tested too. Every move, every blow, every skill used by his wives demanded more of him. They were forcing Strax to adapt, to think quickly, and that motivated him even more. "This is more fun than I thought," Strax laughed, the feeling of power growing in his chest as he prepared for the next move. He used his Light Manipulation to create a field of blindness around them, darkening the area to the point where they could no longer see him. Then, with one swift movement, he fired his Dragon Blast again, exploding the concentrated energy into a torrent that scattered the wives around him. Daniela and Cassandra were already getting up, but Strax knew that, in time, they would adapt and come back stronger. He couldn't miss a beat. Without wasting any time, he made use of his Dragon Transformation, creating a wave of dark, destructive energy that spread across the field, the heat and power of the transformation spreading to every corner. With his claws now as sharp as blades, Strax advanced again, his power now at its maximum. He used his Dragon Blast, firing a huge blast of fire and chaos towards Cassandra and Daniela. Both dodged deftly, using their supernatural speed to avoid the direct hit, but the heat of the blast was enough to force them backwards, their clothes scorched by the force of the attack. Strax was immersed in pure energy now, a hurricane of destruction. He used his Fire Manipulation to create a storm of flames around him, the vampires struggling to keep their distance as they tried to regroup. But Strax knew that the battle was far from decided. These women would not give up so easily. They were becoming faster, more calculating. "Let's see how they handle this," Strax said to himself, with a smile of pure amusement. He used his Lightning Manipulation, concentrating the energy in the air around him until a burst of pure electricity shot out from his body, hitting the field in all directions. Cassandra and Daniela dodged, but the force of the lightning was insane, and the area around them was being destroyed by the second. In a moment of desperation, Daniela approached once more, trying to use her vampiric transformation ability to increase her speed and strength. She leapt, sharp claws reaching for Strax. He, in turn, used Blood Manipulation to create a blood barrier around her, but Daniela was undeterred. With a savage grin, she managed to break through the barrier, but Strax, with one swift movement, used his Dragon Claw to slice her attack through the air and then used the negative energy to block the blow, launching her into the air again. The battle was intensifying, and Strax felt the energy of his wives, the fight growing inside him. But he also knew there was something else. He couldn't defeat them with brute force alone. It took more than that, more than skill and power. He needed to act intelligently, and the vampires, with their complex abilities, didn't make that easy. "She wasn't kidding... they've come very close to my strength in such a short time..." He knew these women were strong, but he was surprised... "Okay, my loves... The one who takes me down first will get a reward." Strax said and they all... absolutely all looked at him. Even Xenovia and Scarlet. 'I think I've said too much...' Strax thought, feeling the pressure mounting towards him. 'Holy shit. He said before dodging a spear of blood coming towards him. "ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME?!" Strax shouted at Scarlet, who had possessive red eyes. "I want the reward." She said before advancing towards him.
