Supreme Couple In Apocalypse: Undead King & Demonic Queen

'Damn it, they killed Gura!'

'What the fuck is wrong with them?'

'Their spiritual power is no less than ours, and that's why they can react fast and squeeze their physical strength to the extreme along with their other powers to be that fast.'

'Kill that Royal-order woman first. We'll deal with those two later if they want to attack us.'

The nine Royal-order hunters continued chasing Lily while trying to hit or slow her down, but everyone's heart suddenly turned cold after a few seconds.

'Those two…'

Rin and Erix were ahead once again, chugging Mana potions a few kilometers away from them, and Lily was going in that direction.

'Space element…If he teleports like that, we'll never leave them behind.'

'Damn it. We can't let them kill one more of us.'

'They are attacking at close range and are quick in their executions, so we can't put ourselves before their attacks to disable the abyss rule.'

'What do we do then? If one of us with stronger defenses survives against their quick onslaught until another one of us tries to get hit by their attacks and…no, it's risky. Their attacks are no joke even though they are Noble-order.'

'Chief, what do we do?'

The enemy group quickly discussed spiritual thoughts and came to a conclusion right as Lily passed between Rin and Erix.

Rin turned to Erix one hundred meters away. Erix also glanced at her and nodded. They were ready to enact one more kill-onslaught.

However, the nine Royal-order powerhouses suddenly stopped a hundred meters away from them, halting their chase.

Lily felt their presence distancing further and stopped. 'It looks like they can't afford to ignore Rin and Erix.'

Lily returned swiftly and arrived between Rin and Erix, facing the nine Royal-order powerhouses as they floated with somber expressions.

"If you want to back out, now is the time," Erix said with a grin. The chaotic orbs floated behind him, whirling with energies and ready to be used at any moment.

Both of them had chugged a potion and recovered their Mana to full.

"How about you try to attack and kill me?"

One of the Royal-order powerhouses floated forward. He wore heavy metal full-body armor and was a two-meter-tall half-human with a demonic race bloodline.

He had the highest defense among the group and wanted to try to contain Rin and Erix.

Rin and Erix looked at each other while Lily sent them her thought, 'It could be a trap. If you attack, don't let your attacks hit others, or I can continue to run, and you two can just ignore them.'

'No.'

'No need.'

Erix and Rin responded simultaneously with a grin etched on their faces.

Erix threw the Chaotic Whirling Punch 2.0 into a wormhole connecting to one that appeared behind the Royal-order hunter that stepped forward, causing him to shoot toward Lily like a bullet.

But there was already a triangular crystal defense whirling around the man, which negated all impact and damage of Erix's punch at the cost of cracks all over it.

The other eight Royal-order powerhouses moved towards their companion while hurling all of their attacks towards Lily to prevent her from attacking while Rin was already in the motion since she knew Erix was going to attack.

Rin's arms moved along with the new set of Chaotic Chronace Blades she conjured as they infused into her attack, completing the Skillcraft that struck the Royal-order powerhouse whose defense was almost destroyed by Erix.

Chaotic Millennial Blade Vortex!

The vortex formed with thousands of slashes chaotically whirling into her Dissolution Flow, and a cross-slash in its center struck the man who had activated his highest defense the moment Erix's attack struck him. It successfully formed before Rin's attack hit him, keeping him safe.

'Damn it! What the hell is this vortex?! I-' The man felt everything was chaotic inside, and it was preventing him from functioning normally while the sharp blade projectiles everywhere filled with strange, intense, and potent energies shredded his defense. The time inside flowed slow for him, physically affecting him by the chaotic flows around him but not for the others things!

'Damn it!'

The enemy chief's eyes glinted, and his eyes turned ruthless with resolve as he flew at the fastest speed possible toward Rin's vortex, intending to get hit by it!

Erix was about to launch the strongest attack as usual with Rin to finish off that peak defensive Royal-order powerhouse inside Rin's vortex, but he suddenly sensed an aura rapidly approaching Rin's vortex instead.

'No!' Erix's eyes glinted dark. He didn't pause his movement and continued as he swung both of his fists forward as the destructive projectile of Resonant Chaotic Twin Fists formed with the two floating orbs completely infusing their powers into the whirling punches as they shot into a wormhole and struck the enemy Chief.

*Booom!*

Erix had also used 1000 Spirit force to boost the attack, making the enemy Chief unnerved as he had no choice but to cancel and alter his plan.

'Then you first, damned ant!' Chief braced himself for the impact as fast as he could as the attack struck his defense layered defensive barrier.

When those two punch projectiles whirling around each other struck him, the Chief finally knew why people called Erix Deathly Fist or Fist of the Abyss.

'What the hell are these effects!?'

His defense was eaten away as those deathly dark purple flames dismantled it from micro. At the same time, they still had strange space properties, allowing them to attack the foundational formation of his defense directly.

Hence, this offensive form of Nihilir Essence was called Dismantle! It dismantled a magic phenomenon's formational foundation that had taken form, and this was a specialized effect of a Super Exotic Element.

No other element could have this type of offense because it could only birthed from a combination of Death, Flame, and Space. Only Nihilir Essence!

"Arghhh!!"

The enemy chief was engulfed in dark, hazy purple flame sparks that destroyed his armor and entered his body, damaging him and enraging him.

"You bastard!"

Erix felt a sudden powerful force assaulting him before he felt an irresistible pull.

'Domain, huh?' Erix grinned. 'Bring it on.'

Erix and Chief disappeared into the Chief's domain.

On the other hand, Rin's opponent also couldn't hold on longer in the strange vortex with chaotic time flow and other attacks that Rin was hurling into the vortex and keeping him locked.

'Damn it! How the hell am I not even getting a chance to counter-attack?!' he thought frustratingly. He was forced to continuously fuel up his defenses to save himself from Rin's attacks.

With no other choice, the defense-oriented hunter was forced to use his domain to break this stalemate, making it a 1v1 fight with Rin.

Lily escaped once again while the rest of the Royal-order powerhouses chased her with no other choice.

Lily didn't want to use her domain to kill just one and exhaust her Spirit Force since using a domain consumed a lot of Spirit Force along with other energies.

On the other hand, Rin's opponent didn't plan to fight a death battle against Rin in his domain because he knew he was a bad match-up against her powers despite him having essentially higher stats and power.

'Her reaction time is faster, damn it! I can only stall for a bit to recover and then leave.'

Rin arrived in a lush forest with a huge lake in the middle, but deep within the lake were hundreds of dark red glowing beads.

"Rise."

Rin turned to the voice and saw her opponent turning into a ten-meter-tall giant wrapped in exotic wood and water elemental structures.

*Shraaaa!!*

From the river came a huge whale-like creature with hundreds of eyes on its head.

It issued a strange loud sound before entirely gulping Rin at once.

Inside its water-filled mouth, Rin was completely drowned, but she was still calm. She even had a grin forming on her face.

Rin and Erix had one more trick up their sleeve that they created during this journey, thanks to Lilith's teaching them her style and other knowledge they absorbed.

This trick was specifically to counter domains!

Erix was also in a domain with exotic, tiny floating islands and nothing on the ground except clouds.

Those unique floating islands were entirely crystallized and earthen, and they swiftly took the form of strange golems of various sizes, creating an army of a hundred deadly golems that rushed toward Erix.

Some were slim, some had long-range blasters in their hands, some were giant, and various other strange ones.

"I'll kill your woman after killing you!" the Chief ruthlessly shouted at Erix as he held a giant mace in his hand that glowed with dark brown sparks.

"Keep dreaming and just watch me kill you," Erix spat with a devilish grin as he saw those golems rapidly approaching him and vanish from his spot, teleported ten kilometers away while his gauntlets started shining and altering.
