Supreme Couple In Apocalypse: Undead King & Demonic Queen

"Eh? Where did she go? I also wanted to have a spar."

Rin asked as she saw only Erix returning.

"She got crazy after we fought, and I sucked her dry," Erix laughed. "I progressed to nearly sixty percent! Her vital essence was potent, haha."

"If I can suck her dry every day while we are here, I should be able to balance my source quickly."

"That's great," Rin nodded with a chuckle. "The faster you finish with that, the sooner we'll be able to return."

Suddenly, Amu appeared amidst them and snickered in a childish, sharp voice.

"You don't know that stupid bitch yet," Amu said. "She became obsessed with you, and that's going to bring you trouble."

Lilith raised her eyebrows, "What do you mean?"

The others were also startled hearing that.

"I don't know what she will do because I can't predict the future, but I know something will happen," Amu said as it dived into the water and then surfaced on it.

"That aside, I am going to kick all of you out after seventeen hours."

Everyone frowned.

"Why? Didn't you say we can stay here for many days until we exhaust this pool's benefits on us to a minimum?" Lily furrowed her brows.

"Yes. It is to let you get more benefit from the pond," Amu nodded. "If you continue to stay in the pond and get influence, you'll exhaust it quicker as time goes by."

"But if you take a break of five to ten hours every day and return, you'll progress faster in whatever you try to do during meditation here."

"Interesting," Lilith smiled. "Then we'll take up on that offer."

"Mhm," Amu nodded. "Then continue in meditation for the next seventeen hours. The royal palace will arrange your stay since you all have passed my test and have high regard in their eyes."

…

On the other hand, Aria woke up after seven hours and went to her training under a middle-aged elf lady of Empyrean-order that the King had appointed.

"Aria, you are progressing faster and faster recently. This is a pleasant surprise."

"Hehe, thank you, Teacher Yinesa," Aria said with a jolly grin. "I am going to become more powerful so father won't worry about me when I leave."

"What do you want to do after leaving?" Yinesa asked with a smile.

"I will join a party!" Aria said with shining eyes. "I have to work hard, so they accept me in their party. It's going to be so much fun with them."

"Eh?" Yinesa was startled. "What party? So you secretly went outside and met some people, eh?"

Aria giggled and shook her head, "It's a secret."

"What's going on here?"

Suddenly, a beautiful elf woman with a wooden tiara on her head arrived at the training ground and frowned as she looked at Aria and Yinesa.

"Queen," Yinesa hastily bowed along with Aria.

"Aria, come with me," the Queen indifferently said before she turned around and started walking towards the exit.

Aria bit her lips in unwillingness, but she followed her nonetheless.

'What does she want from Aria?' Yinesa was confused.

…

"Your father and I have decided something for you," Queen Elina said as she sat at a table with Aria in a garden.

"What?" Aria nervously asked. She could feel bad intentions oozing out of Elina, and given her special physique and powers, she could read people's intentions and mind in a way.

"When your father opens the ascension portal, some guests will come and visit us to welcome your father into their ranks."

"One of them is a talented elf young man, and his bloodline is also a Legendary-grade, so you will marry him and have a good life."

"What?!" Aria stood with a panicked expression as she shook her head repeatedly. "No…"

*Slap!*

Elina waved her hand as a palm formed and stuck on Aria's cheek, slapping it hard.

"What No?! I wanted my daughter to marry him, but you are getting that chance because of your father!" Elina said, her expression cold.

"It's for your sake, so stop being selfish!"

Aria's eyes turned watery as tears streamed down her cheeks. Not because of the painful slap, but because of her words.

"F-Father will listen to me," Aria weakly said while sobbing. "I never asked for anything before, so h-"

"You got everything even if you didn't ask for it," Elina coldly snorted. "Your father practically begged for this, so you better be obedient!"

After saying that, Elina disappeared like a wind, leaving Aria alone in the garden, crying and heartbroken.

She just had made a wish to join Erix's group after watching his journey in the test.

She liked him and felt that he was like her father, but two overlapping images were separating now.

'Father cares for me, so he will listen to me…'

'Erix cared for her and fought the whole calamity at the cost of sacrificing everything he built…father also told me he would do anything for me.'

'He will listen to me…'

Aria wiped her tears and calmed down before she closed her eyes and used bloodline resonance to find her father's location.

'Father will listen to me.'

On the other hand, Princess Runia was sleeping naked in her bedroom, squirming and grinning while dreaming.

She woke after five hours before she woke up feeling good like never before.

The first thing that came to her mind was none other than Erix's image.

She was surprised as she looked around but figured out that the ancient will must have teleported her here.

However, her thoughts soon went to the main thing in her mind.

"I want him," Runia's eyes glinted as her finger touched her pussy, still able to recall the sensation that she had experienced.

"But those women…" Runia muttered and got off her bed as her body was covered in a casual royal off-shoulder dress and left her room.

…

"What?!" Elina was dumbfounded as she heard Runia's words.

"Yes. I've decided to marry someone. But before that, I want to kill his women."

"What the hell are you talking about?" Elina rubbed her forehead and sat down at the table in her grand room.

Runia sat on a chair across her as she grinned, "There's a man worthy of me in that who came to take the test."

"I want him."

"But I don't want those parcels with him," Runia snorted. "He should be all mine, so think about a way to kill them."

"Your standards are high and he convinced you?" Elina doubtfully asked. "Is he really that impressive?"

"Yes! My life will be perfect with him! Once his women dies somehow with your plot, I'll alone become his wife."

"My plot?" Elina wryly smiled. "I don't doubt you, but you are crazy sometimes, so I want to check if he is really that impressive to make you like this."

"He is," Runia grinned. "Both in bed and outside of bed."

"What?! Y-You, you slept with him?" Elina was shocked.

"He challenged me to spar despite being a Noble-order, and I couldn't defeat him," Runia laughed. "Then I just couldn't help…"

Elina rubbed her temples, "What do I do with you…"

"Humph, what's wrong with that? I had already decided to marry him after that spar, and then I couldn't hold back. He did crazy to me…I want to do it again, so I am going, hehe."

"You go and plot something to kill his other women."

"Wait, stop!" Elina stopped her daughter and made her sit back down at the table.

"What?" Runi clicked her tongue.

"There's some other news," Elina calmly said. "Aria will be married off to a prince from a kingdom from our world."

"Your father will open a portal upon his ascension after a month, and they'll arrive here at that time."

"What does that have anything to do with me?" Runia snorted. "I don't care if that bitch dies or lives. What I want is Erix."

"Initially, I wanted you to marry that prince, but your father wanted Aria to have that opportunity, so he even fought with me," Elina coldly said.

"He cheated with other women before me and made that girl Aria, and I'm sure he will roll around with other women after ascending from Abyss."

Runia raised her eyebrows, "Mom, what the hell are you thinking?"

"I am thinking of killing two birds with one stone," Elina said with a sharp smile.

"Ancient will told me that the group will exit the pool daily for a set amount of time. They'll leave soon…after roughly seven hours, so don't go there and let the meditate."

"Then?" Runia asked as she felt her mother had cooked something.

Elina leaned back on her chair and snapped her finger as a mirage stone appeared.

"I've prepared a courtyard on the 70th floor for them, so after they return, call Erix to a room on the 85th floor."

"Since you said he is so impressive, I'll assess him, and also have some fun with him," Elina grinned as the mirage crystal. "And record it in this crystal."

"While we are entangled with him, I'll have my force kill his women, but we have to make sure that they are killed outside and also prepare so that he can also have his revenge."

"Without revenge, he won't be that open to you."

"You…" Runia pouted and then snorted, "Fine, but only one time! I'll also leave with him for an adventure, or I feel like you'll ask for him daily."

Elina rolled her eyes. "Idiot. Anyway, we have seven hours to think about how to execute all of this."

"We'll have to give his women some incentive to leave the palace for some purpose after they leave the pond cavern so my subordinates can finish off his women."

"One of them is Empyrean-order, two are Royal-order hunters, and one is a Noble-order bitch," Runia grinned. "It won't be that hard if we send our full force after that."

Suddenly, Runia thought of something and immediately added, "Wasn't there a Bloomlight Event? Since we can control its opening at least, we can just start the event early and let those women go there."

"The rewards of that event are tempting, so I'm sure they'll go there."

"You'll have to make sure Erix stays behind," Elina said.

"Heh, I'll just say that my mother also wants his taste," Runai slyly smiled. "I'm sure he will find us more tempting than the event. It's a fundamental thing for men."

Elina was speechless, "Well…that's actually a good idea coming from you. The event is perfect bait and so are we..."

"Humph, why are you making it sound like I am an idiot?" Runia smacked her lips before she grinned. "I am your daughter, after all"

Like mother, like daughter—this rang loud in this case indeed...in a bad way.

"Alright, let's start preparing. I'll have to inform my subordinates, and we should also hire some hunters for this to make sure they die."

...

On the other hand, Aria arrived in her father's training chamber and saw a portal there leading to a dimension where her father was training.
