Supreme Couple In Apocalypse: Undead King & Demonic Queen

After returning back to the Blessed Island, Erix, Rin, and Aria had passionate battles for four hours.

Rin's bloodline also evolved like Lilith, reaching Mythic-rank.

[Bloodline: Ourous Regalon Demphire ]

Upon the evolution of her Bloodline, Rin directly awakened two elements. Blood and Death.

It was just like how Erix awakened the Life element upon acquiring his Bloodline, Rin's bloodline evolution granted her core attributes of her bloodline.

Even without this evolution, Rin would have eventually awakened Blood and Death elements due to her Ourous Demphire bloodline because its source was based on Blood and Death as well.

Lilith and Rin had the same bloodline before and after evolution, but from this onwards, they would have to become pioneers of their same bloodline that would progress into two different paths.

…

The trio took a small nap of four hours. It was enough to recover their condition to prime.

Afterward, they entered Limitless Plane with Isabella, and four of them trained in their respective powers.

At eight in the morning, Erix gathered everyone in the guild's central hall.

The guild's current lineup was small but solid.

Leader: Erix.

Vice leader: Rin

Commanders: Aria, Isabella.

Elites: Leon, Samuel, Zoe, Elena, Alfred, Varan.

Members: Roy, Tony, Kartik, Tez, Liana, Raashi, Neriko, Varan, and Mia.

Rin and Erix hadn't talked to those seven members yet, but they stayed with Isabella and others during tough times, which was enough for Erix to give them a reward.

"I promised ten people today my custom-made weapons, but you all also deserve one," Erix said with a smile.

"However, I will only Royal-order members their weapons, so you nine will have to work towards ranking up. How long will it take?"

"You go first," Erix turned his head to Roy and Tony. "You twins, how long?"

"Soon, leader," Roy said with a grin.

"At most two days," Tony followed up. "We are close to comprehending the Arcane Spirit Pool."

"Good," Erix nodded before turning to Kartik, the short black-haired man in his late thirties with a six-foot height.

"Hmm," Kartik adopted a thoughtful expression before answering, "Five days."

"Six days."

"Four days."

…

After getting everyone's answers, Erix sent Noble orders away to do their things.

It was morning, and their routine was using Unbound Star cosmic faction's Spiritual Art, Unfettered Mantra Focus, to enter a singularly focused state to train and comprehend their Arcane Spirit Pond's insight to manifest it and advance to Royal order.

Unfettered Mantra Focus was the spiritual art that everyone got after officially joining the Unbound Star cosmic faction.

Way of Unfettered was the superior version, but it required some contribution to buy it.

Tenebria secretly recruited Erix, Rin, Isabella, Aria, Lilith, and Lily, so they got Way of Unfettered spiritual art.

Unfettered Mantra Focus was the downgraded and shallow version of an aspect of Way of Unfettered spiritual art, as it only aided in meditative training.

They couldn't enter Limitless Plane. Still, this Spiritual Art was helpful because while the rest of the guilds only had a few Royal-order powerhouses relative to their big numbers, the Unfettered Fate guild had six members already at Royal order aside from Erix, Rin, Aria, and Isabella.

Those six were Leon, Samuel, Zoe, Elena, Alfred, and Varan.

In total, the Unfettered Fate guild had ten Royal-order powerhouses, while other guilds had lower than this number!

The highest had Heavenly Melody Guild, but they also only had five Royal-order powerhouses including Kenshin and Sameira.

On the broader scale, only 0.5% of the living human population reached the royal order, which was roughly 20k, while the rest of the 99.5% of people were still in the Noble-order.

…

"The six of you will get your custom weapon from me first," Erix said as he leaned back with a grin. "Tell me your preference."

"I'll go first!" Zoe said with as she said her hand with excitement. "I want a spear of Fire and Lightning attribute! I hope it also has some powerful long-range powers."

"Alright," Erix nodded while smiling as he already thought of a few options on which of his exotic Metals to use as a base.

"We have two hours before the tournament starts, so let's make your weapon first," Erix said before looking at Leon and others. "You five can think about your choices for an hour."

"Then Erix, I'll take Aria and Isabella for a round," Rin said as she stood up.

"Yeah, that would be better."

"Should we go visit the elf clan to continue the alliance?" Isabella asked.

"I can be helpful in that," Aria sweetly smiled as her perky elf ears moved.

"Yep, that's a good idea," Erix said with a laugh. "They must have something useful for us since these clans arrived here."

Rin, Aria, and Isabella went to the elf clan at once, while Erix took Zoe, Leon, Elena, Alfred, and Varan to the Blessed Island to begin his grand crafting session.

Since Rin and Erix cleaned the major trouble that was the Dark Daggers Alliance, Sameira and Kenshin went back to their main task of solidifying their ties with the Terrapin clan for alliance.

Terrapin clan was obscure and ancient according to what they observed. So far, they only allowed Sameira and Kenshin to enter their hidden territory.

"There," Kenshin said as he pointed at a seemingly normal-looking tree in the forest twenty kilometers north of the Labyrinth Tower.

They arrived before the tree and walked into its trunk, seemingly disappearing magically.

The duo arrived at a hidden underground cavern with a magical ceiling.

It was a lush green cavern that was fifteen kilometers in radius with hills, a small forest, and the rest of the land covered in water bodies.

Half of the land had ponds and river pathways connecting the ponds. Each pond had underwater houses and structures, while a huge palace lay in the middle.

But the inhabitants of this place were not humans. They were humanoid turtles! Their limbs and skin were green but strong, and each one was covered by a solid turtle shell.

Most of them had a dark green turtle shell, but some had natural golden designs and patterns on their shells, indicating their rarer and stronger Bloodline.

Kenshin and Sameira emerged from a tree's trunk in the small forest, attracting the attention of Terrapin.

Suddenly, a Terrapin middle-aged man appeared before the duo and caressed his long black beard. His turtle shell had that rare and stronger Bloodline pattern. His aura was that of an Empyrean-order.

"You're finally here," the man grunted. "If you hadn't arrived today, we would have made contact with another guild and erased our secret passage that we revealed to you."

"And I saw some new people arrive. Your troubles are also gone because of them."

Kenshin laughed and said, "My daughter and her husband."

Sameira wryly smiled. They've yet to marry, but Kenshin was already calling Erix his son-in-law.

"That aside, we are here to hear your condition and your so-called detailed talk," Sameira said as she crossed her arms. "You took long to answer us."

"I'll explain to you our specialty and benefits in detail. You succeeded in one task and also passed our test, so as long as you agree to our conditions, we'll form a mutual benefit alliance with you."

"Alright, Kulikan. Let's hear it," Kenshin smiled.

"Follow me."

Kenshin and Sameira followed the old man as they entered the palace and arrived at an open pavilion in the backyard.

The trio sat at a table before a female Terrapin arrived. She had silver hair and a chubby face, and her shell looked similar to Kulikan's shell.

"Our Race has deep connections to a very ancient bloodline. We were at the cusp of extinction in our old world because of our enemies, but Mystic Root gave us this chance, and we arrived here."

Kulikan's expression was somber. "We can't afford to let our numbers reduce here more."

'Interesting,' Sameira's eyes glinted.

'Their situation seems terrible, eh?' Kenshin internally nodded.

"My clan's total population is just ninety-three, and currently we only get four members a year," the female Terrapin said. "This is due to our Zhenwu Terrapin Bloodline. Until we reach Reverend-order, we can only produce a single heir."

"Our clan was flourishing in our world a thousand years ago, but our invaluable shells and our power attracted our doom. Our numbers were reduced, and we were kept as slaves to craft our special items that only we could produce."

Kulikan took out a dark green bangle with eccentric patterns and sleek but strange material. It looked like jade but had metallic and wooden textures.

"This item is our exclusive defense armaments. We have all types of defense with various defensive effects."

"With our support, you can reduce your casualties and damage by a lot. Your defense will be superior to most."

"Aside from this, we can give you our personal support," Kulikan's sharply said. "Each of our member have powerful defensive capabilities. Our bloodline boasts the strongest defense."

The female Terrapin sighed and said, "Unless we reach Reverend-order, our members can't unlock the complete potential of our Bloodline. Before reaching Reverend-order, we only have pure defensive superiority."

"The other clans and outer power in our world joined together to suppress and made sure that none of us reached Reverend-order. We could never rise again, but this is our chance, so we don't want to take any risks."

Kulikan somberly said, "To prevent the same fate from descending on my clan, you two must take a spiritual oath to protect our location and secret."

"We will give you items, and our members will join you to help you and grow strong with you, but you must provide us with some resources regularly in the clan."

"We will discuss more if you can take the oath. If you do not plan to take the oath of alliance, then you must take oath to never mention what we revealed to others."

Kenshin and Sameira glanced at each other before looking at the two Terrapins and smiled.

The benefits were too much, and they also didn't have much constraint on them with the oath. The plus far overshadowed the harmless conditions of the oath.

After all, they wouldn't think of betraying them. It was to their benefit to help this clan and get their powerful support. This was all they wanted from them.

"We will take the oath of alliance."
