Supreme Couple In Apocalypse: Undead King & Demonic Queen

*Crackle!*

The sword instantly burst out with lightning tendrils all over, stronger than usual!

Rin's eyes sparkled as she immediately condensed the lightning with her control, making the blade sleek with tiny lightning sparks all over the condensed lightning coating on the blade.

"This is awesome, Erix! You can make a magic weapon despite lacking the craft-type Grimoire!"

Rin was excited for Erix.

"Yeah, I used all knowledge I got during 10-day classes I attended to attempt creating a weapon this morning in the Limitless Plane, and it worked," Erix rubbed his nose and nodded before he wryly smiled, "but I don't know why I didn't awaken the grimoire, sigh."

"You needed more time because you didn't have the affinity and talent for it, but-" Rin smiled in adoration, "-but you nurtured this talent you didn't have with your hard work."

"I am sure you will awaken it naturally if you continue," Rin added while feeling the new katana with her senses and checking out its magic formation.

"Right, I also got hope to awaken it naturally," Erix grinned before he showed the metal drill he created to Rin. "Also, Infuse your lightning in this drill and my gauntlets. This way, I can deal more damage."

Rin nodded as if it was a good idea.

After Rin was done, Erix smashed his gauntlets while the drill floated beside him with his control, "I'll focus on cracking their defense with my specialized defense-break punches and this drill. Then you will finish off the crabs."

"Great! Let's slaughter those numbskulls."

…

After killing the crabs in twenty minutes as they moved again, Rin and Erix successfully reached level 89.

The duo could level up fast because of their risky adventure. Most people would still play it safely and level up slowly by killing monsters in low numbers, unlike people like Rin and Erix, who challenged hordes of monsters for quicker progress and improvement.

After harvesting the cores of the crabs, they fought random monsters for an hour more and reached level 90.

"Let's go to that mountain and eat something," Rin pointed at a mountain with purple and blue trees. "It looks mysterious and beautiful, and I also feel some attraction to it."

"Oh? If that's the case, then let's go. We'll eat the sushis we bought and get some buffs before resuming our grind."

The duo flew towards the mountain, and Erix curiously asked, "By the way, what mysterious thing are you feeling?"

"All I know is that it's related to my lightning affinity."

"Could be some natural resources related to lighting."

"Yeah."

As they flew towards the mountain, the duo saw a group of three people flying towards them from the mountain Rin pointed.

Rin and Erix didn't intend to chitty-chat with anyone as they didn't have time, but the trio flew in their direction as if they had some intentions regarding Rin and Erix.

"Are you two going to that mountain?"

Although confused by their question, Erix nodded. "Yeah, why?"

"Don't bother going there. That mountain peak bloomed two Sky Lightning Arbor fruits in vines formatted around those lightning-attributed trees, but it is occupied by six peak Supra-order members of Dawnbreaker guild."

'Sky Lightning Arbor fruit?'

Erix and Rin were shocked. They had some knowledge of various natural resources that grew and manifested in these areas, so they had also heard about Sky Lightning Arbor fruit that would occasionally bloom in Star-Rain mountains.

Sky Lightning Arbor fruit was a Tier-2 legendary grade resource. Upon eating it, one could get a chance to awaken lightning affinity, and if one already had lightning affinity, one might get a chance to awaken lightning-type talent and help one make progress in the 1st realm of lightning affinity mastery.

Of course, the fruit had no effects on someone who had achieved the 2nd realm of Lightning affinity except having a higher chance of awakening a talent.

In short, this fruit was immensely beneficial to Rin.

"I doubt you three came here just to warn us," Rin said with a smile.

The three men looked at each other and revealed a sly smile to Rin and Erix.

"How about we work together and take one fruit each? We have to hurry because they will harvest both fruits soon, and they've also probably called reinforcements."

"Alright, let's do it," Erix's response was immediate as he nodded, a glint passing through his eyes. 'With Rin's comprehension and talent, she will immediately reach the next realm in lightning affinity after eating a fruit.'

"As a token of trust, we will attack them first," One of the men said. "Let's go."

Rin and Erix nodded. These three men in their thirties were humans and were level 94, 93, and 92, respectively.

Although they didn't know their true combat power, Rin and Erix didn't feel threatened by their aura.

…

On the small mountain's peak stood an elven woman and a human man wearing golden-plated metal armor sets facing four men wearing silver-plated leather armor sets.

They stood around the vines that bore two mysterious palm-sized fruits bearing cloudy and lightning patterns of blue and purple color.

"They are ready to harvest. Cut them off carefully from the roots," the woman with long, wavy, bright blond hair ordered.

Dawnbreakre guild was one of the top five guilds in the town, with their leader getting close to level 200.

The members of this guild had their ranks indicated by the tiny shoulder plates on their armor sets crafted by the guild's personal magic smiths.

Armor sets with golden plates indicated they were first-class members, just below the officials and leaders.

Armor sets with silver plates indicated they were second-class members and were usually subordinates of first-class members.

And armor sets with bronze plates indicated newbie members. They get tasks directly from officials to improve and train them.

The two women were level 94 and 95, respectively, and the four men were level 86, 84, and 79.

As the four men received orders from their superiors to harvest the fruits, the man with long brown-black hair frowned as he saw five aurae rapidly approaching them.

"We have a company. Those three idiots returned with two more people."

"Get ready to battle!" the woman said as she unsheathed her long sword.
