Supreme Couple In Apocalypse: Undead King & Demonic Queen

Chapter 290: Unexpected Encounter, Finishing Matters

"Rin, am I seeing things or are you seeing the same thing?" Erix muttered, but he was pretty saw of the face.

Rin smiled in response. It was a cold and ruthless smile. "It's him."

The enemy leader with dark blue curly hair and a lean figure looked at them and then turned around to look at the young man who was his recently acquired pupil.

"We can talk first, right?" the enemy leader asked as he looked at Lilith. His only enemy and threat was Lilith.

His seven subordinates also dreaded battling Erix, Rin, Lily, and Aria after seeing what they caused and the people they killed.

'Leader Kolos, please do something about this. We don't want to fight them.'

'It's hopeless. I don't know about you battling that Empyrean-order, but we can't win against those Royal-order hunters.'

'All four of them are superior to us.'

The two most important subordinates of Kolos were already dead on the surface in the market, and they saw their battles.

At first, they thought the secret underground area would remain undiscovered, but Erix found them, and here they were, scaring the wits and courage out of Kolos' subordinates.

None of them wanted to fight.

"You want to talk for your life?" Aria asked, anger evident in her eyes. She was angry at the scenes of torture she saw.

Aria wanted to kill them and nothing else.

"I can give you this guy," Kolos said as he pointed at the trembling young man behind him.

"It seems that you know him."

"M-Master..."

Kolos turned around and saw that the blank expression on his pupil's face was now filled with dread.

Naturally, it didn't matter to him. Kolos turned back to Erix and the group before saying, "I can also give you my wealth and other things I have as long as you let us ago."

"Of course, this brat is also yours to deal with."

"Pff...how do we even attack him? He is at Noble-order rank," Rin chuckled. "And he is an insignificant trash, not worthy of our time."

"Hey, trash," Erix smiled at the young man, who was the same as his age, and said, "Did you think we didn't know you survived that day?"

"We knew, but just didn't care enough to return and finish you off."

Lilith waved her hand, creating a huge barrier and sealing all exists.

"No talks. You are more useful dead than alive."

Amu crackled with a childish laugh, "That's right. Accept a painless death or a painful death. There's no third option."

...

After a while, the huge underground hall was littered with craters and destruction.

In his mind, he believed that Erix and Rin had no reason to lie to him—an ant that they spared despite knowing he was alive.

'Erix, what are you cooking?' Rin asked.

'Haha, just wait and keep your expression as if whatever I say makes sense.'

The ladies understood.

"I'll go and check if there's some stash here. Aria, do you want to come?" Lily said.

"Yep. It's treasure hunting time," Aria grinned.

Lilith sat down on a chair while Maleina stood nearby, watching Rin and Erix face this scared young man who genuinely looked stupid before the duo.

"I want to start a new life," Felix said pleading, "Please...I will beg and ask for forgiveness as many times as you want."

"No need for all that," Erix laughed. "We don't have time for such useless things."

"Instead, if you want this opportunity, start speaking about the situation on Earth."

"What happened to Heavenly Melody and Unfettered Fate guilds?"

Felix started speaking about everything without hesitation that he knew before he died and arrived here.

"It seems that everything is good," Erix sighed a relief.

"It was good a month ago at least," Rin slowly nodded, thinking. "It's good to know, but let's hurry. Things are heating up there."

"They will," Lilith smiled. "The Mystic Root is influencing your planet so things will develop fast. As natives, you must become part of that."

"Erix, I told you everything I knew," Felix said as he smacked his head on the floor.

"Please, use your power or whatever to start my new life. Our ties will be severed forever...I-I am really sorry, teacher Rin."

"I was stupid."

"Please..."

Erix rolled his eyes, "Don't cry again, what the fuck."

"Get up."

Felix stood up as he wiped his tears.

"Attack me," Erix said.

"W-what?"

"Attack me," Erix said again, with a smile. "If you don't attack me, how can I use my power on you, idiot."

"Ahh, y-yes."

Felix attacked Erix with a serious punch in the stomach that didn't do anything, but it nullified the the Abyss Rule.

"Bye," Erix threw the punch, blasting Felix out of existence.
