After eating and drinking to his heart's content, fully recovered, Cassius once again came to the heavy stone door.
He didn't push the door open but instead performed actions:
[Bear's Resilience]
[Cat's Grace]
[Owl's Wisdom]
Bear's Resilience made his constitution more durable, Cat's Grace made his actions more agile, and Owl's Wisdom heightened his perception, providing the Red Dragon with an overall boost.
After casting what he jokingly called the "zoo series" of spells on himself, Cassius still felt uneasy, as this was the legacy of a Legendary Druid, and who knew what kind of traps might be waiting.
[Gilded Carapace]
The accumulated Gold Element within his body converged on the surface of the Red Dragon, turning its scales into a metallic golden hue. If one didn't look closely, it could easily be mistaken for a Gold Dragon.
[Protection from Lightning Damage]
