Supreme Couple In Apocalypse: Undead King & Demonic Queen

After eating several delicious veggie and meat dishes that Lira made within half an hour, the duo fell asleep after 12:30 AM.

They slept till five in the morning and then went inside Limitless Plane to spend their one hour in training.

Erix arrived on the ore-rich island to make progress in his Metal affinity while Rin swam through thunderclouds.

She couldn't check out the magic formations of her new sword since it had not been digested by her Blade Eater yet, so she focused on making progress in her affinity by comprehending the lightning around her.

In their focused state, absorbed in learning and understanding the wonders, one hour quickly passed by, and they were kicked out of Limitless Plane, appearing back on their king-sized bed in the bedroom.

"How did it go?" Erix pulled Rin closer, letting her head rest on his chest.

"I think I made good progress. I might reach the new realm in Lightning element tomorrow," Rin smiled.

"Same," Erix ruefully chuckled. "Let's hope it's not just an illusion produced from the progress we made today."

"Babe, how about we go all-out today and max our stats?" Rin said, her eyes sparkling and fiery. "Let's take a bunch of missions and roam the wilderness."

…

7:36 PM.

In the north of Blood Stone Forest, Erix faced off against a twenty-meter-tall rageful mammoth, a level 83 monster called Blood Thorn Mammoth.

"Fighto!" Rin cheered from the sides. "Kill it one punch."

The monstrous mammoth trumpeted, releasing a powerful roar toward Erix and sweeping its trunk that glowed with red magic, indicating a powerful and quick attack.

Erix was forced to dodge rather than receive it head-on as he felt it could be a bad idea to block it.

Naturally, he pushed his legs and dodged by jumping forward, closing the distance between him and the monster. At the same time, his fists were coated in a condensed mental gauntlet with an intricately woven solid foundation.

'One shot, eh?'

Erix thought as he closed in and landed on the monster's head before his shining right fist smashed on the Elephant's head.

'Imposing Fist at 80 mana first and…'

*Crack*

A clear sound of skull cracking ranges, and a second later, Erix executed a punch within his punch as his fist additionally empowered with 100 mana woven in a springy and spinning formation within his custom-made gauntlets specially made to maximize the damage of his Whirling Punch and Imposing Fist.

As such, he slightly spun his wrist before executing the attack. The Whirling Punch!

*BOOM!*

Since his first attack had already managed to crack the skull, the entire force of the second punch drilled into the monster and destroyed its head as blood and gore blasted everywhere.

Its head was gone, while the rest of its body remained intact.

After extracting its core, the duo went north.

…

8:03 PM.

Rin and Erix sat on a boulder near the edge of a waterfall in the north of Blood Stone forest. It was a huge waterfall spanning thirty meters wide and seventy meters of fall.

"Gah~ I'm tired as hell, but we did it," Rin said after releasing a tired moan and lying on Erix's lap.

"We indeed did it," Erix nodded, his eyes reflecting his status.

"We'll max our magic power and mana capacity today," Rin said with a weary smile. "Let's do the dual training after sleeping."

"Yep. Rest is important," Erix nodded with a smile while massaging Rin's head with his hands.

They had enough cores to power up their magic core to the limit. In short, they would reach 300 Magic power and 1000 mana limit tomorrow, making them the peak of the Supra-order powerhouse in terms of magical stats.

…

The new day went peacefully for the duo as they made significant progress and returned to the town.

After submitting their quests and adding the Abyss coins they earned, their total earning reached 800k Abyss Coins.

They didn't encounter Lilith after that day since they spent the whole day outside and returned at night to eat in kilograms, sleep, and sort their progress.

Two more days passed by peacefully. Although leveling has been slow as they reached higher levels, it was also going smoothly.

Their physical stats were stuck at 200 until they crossed level 80, which they would do today since both of them were at level 79. On the other hand, their affinity progress felt like they almost about to grasp the final piece, but always missing it as it would disappear like a dream.

...

Although the past three days went smoothly, today seemed different because just as they left their room at nine in the morning after their Limitless Plane affinity progression and morning passion exercise session, Lira met them outside their room's door and inform them that Lilith was waiting at the dining table for breakfast.

Arriving at the table, they saw Lilith sitting with two other people bearing powerful aura.

A middle-aged man in a black butler uniform with a white beard and a dark green-haired woman wearing a black witch-type robe.

Erix and Rin inspected them, finding that the man was at level 168 while the woman was at level 147.

The duo immediately knew that they were members of Dark Troupe.

"Come and sit," Lilith said with a smile. "You two are progressing quickly. I wasn't expecting that speed."

"It's thanks to you," Erix modestly smiled.

"Indeed," Rin nodded with a grin.

Lilith then introduced the two other people at the table, who exchanged polite nodes with Rin and Erix.

Frendal the Black Butler, and Spena the Dusk Witch. They didn't speak anything and just silently ate.

"Come eat. The breakfast today will fill you with energy," Lilith gestured while smiling.

Rin and Erix took a bite from an exotic bread sprinkled with some herbs and immediately got a notification that their stamina recovery had increased by 10% for five hours.

'Mystic Food!'

Both of them internally exclaimed.

The food made by the Mystic Chef would give various buffs depending on the used ingredients and the Mystic Chef's mastery. Rin was actually planning to try awakening the Mystic Chef grimoire or get her hands on it like Erix, who wanted the Magic Smith grimoire.

The breakfast was soon over with occasional talks of Lilith asking Rin and Erix about their progress and plan.

Lilith disappeared like a mist after mentioning a surprise tonight and telling them to attend this hall around 11 p.m.

However, the witch and butler seemed to have something to say as their eyes finally landed on Erix and Rin after Lilith left.

The witch, in particular, looked visibly annoyed if one looked at her eyes.

'Why did my lady pick up random weak garbage from the street directly to the Dark Troupe?' A hostile gleam lit up in Spena's eyes.

'Tomorrow is an important day, and these two must not be with us at that time.'
