Supreme Couple In Apocalypse: Undead King & Demonic Queen

65  Success! Entering Limitless Plane, Competition.

The third wave of the monsters consisted of four dark blue slugs covered by some slime-like liquid.

Isabella was already prepared as she activated her Fire Elemental Gear and then used her class skill, Elemental Zone, to create a zone of flame elements around her.

She had already thought of how she would attack, so when the slugs rushed forward from four directions, Isabella used her Flame Whip skill twice to conjure two flame whips.

The skill was significantly boosted because of Fire Elemental Gear and Elemental Zone, but she further poured mana into her two Flame Whips to empower them.

She consumed a total of 150 mana and 200 Ether energy.

With her control, she mentally manipulated the Flame Whips after getting them to her current limit of empowerment and attacked two slugs, killing them in one shot because her Crimson Hell Staff also reduced the target's flame resistance and further boosted her fire damage.

Isabella was basically an angel of flame with her current array of skills.

The other two slugs released acid spits from their mouths after they neared, but Isabella easily dodged the attack before killing them.

[ Wave 4 ]

"Continue, Isabella. Give it your all because this dungeon is a good opportunity to awaken your fire affinity."

Isabella herself wanted to continue because her affinity-building progress was barely at 30%, so she wanted to catch up with Erix and Rin!

'More!' Isabella bit her lips as she consumed 50 mana and modified her Flame Whips as ten condensed flame bumps appeared on one Flame Whip.

'Urgh…' A slight searing pain suddenly assaulted her mentally, and her control became a little unstable, but she focused and retained it.

After all, her current Flame Whips were so powerful that even Erix and Rin were feeling the heat from them despite their distance, and she was manipulating both of them!

But she didn't stop there and consumed 50 mana more to create 15 tiny condensed heat spikes on the second flame whip, causing her face to distort visibly.

She felt searing heat in her mind and body but endured the pain and continued.

'Focus!'

'Familiarize, feel, and control… I can do this!' Isabella was determined!

[Progress: 74%]

*Rustle*

The next wave consisted of five two-meter-long worms with circular mouths filled with sharp teeth. They were quick and looked powerful!

However, Isabell clenched her teeth and waved her hand, causing her ten-meter-long flame whips to extend by consuming 50 mana and further empowered them as she routed all five worms in one go!

-2438!

-2438!

-2438!

-2438!

-2438!

[Wave 5]

*Whistle*

Erix slowly whistled in surprise at the damage and quickness.

"Careful!"

Rin's shout jolted Isabella, who was swaying due to the ethereal searing pain in her mind and her consciousness, which was getting wobbly.

She dug her feet into the ground and bit her lips in resolve as the next wave soon arrived.

The monsters themselves were of no threat so far. Instead, Isabella's current enemy was only herself because she must break her limits while enduring whatever comes her way!

As the pain and pressure increased, she couldn't help but release a sharp scream and waved her hand again as she maintained her control and attacked five dark green scaled lizards!

*Swoosh!*

Keeping control and focus, Isabella routed this wave in one go again as she killed all five lizards!

After that attack, Isabella shortly blanked out, but not before a sweet notification rang her ears.

[Congratulations. You have awakened Fire Affinity.]

All the pressure and fiery pain she was experiencing vanished. Instead, she felt comfortable and could more than easily control her flame whips!

[ Wave 6 ]

*Swoosh!*

With brilliant eyes that hid gleams of flames, Isabella waved her hand again and killed all five white snakes in one go just as they arrived! This time, she felt no pain, pressure, or distress as they vanished from her mind and body. It was as if the flame suddenly became a part of her!

[ Wave 7 ]

She still had roughly a hundred mana, so she empowered and reignited her Flame Whips again and incinerated the seventh wave as well!

[ Wave 8 ]

"Awesome, Isabella-sis! You did it!"

"Congrats, Bella. Now, take some rest," Erix smiled and moved forward to deal with the next wave.

Isabella smilingly nodded from ear to ear while feeling joy and thrill at having succeeded in awakening fire affinity.

"How was it?" Rin grinned.

"Very hard," Isabella wryly smiled before she sat beside Rin and added with a grin. "But I don't want to be left behind by you two."

"What are you saying?!" Rin rolled her eyes before she sweetly smiled. "Your willpower and determination are nothing to scoff at. We've seen that when we first met you."

After all, Isabella cut her tongue and bled to death, suffering unimaginable pain and anguish without making a single sound! Even though she did it for her son, not all mothers could do something like that!

…

Ten minutes soon passed, and they had no difficulty clearing the dungeon by surviving for ten minutes. They finished 20 waves, and the last 30 seconds were free as no monster spawned.

[ Congratulations! You have completed the dungeon with a perfect performance by defeating 20 waves of monsters within ten minutes! ]

[Additional reward for perfect performance: 1x random Tier-1 item of Epic grade]

After the trio left the dungeon, they sat cross-legged in a corner of the camp to meditate.

They wanted to avoid opening their treasure chests here because it might attract needless attention if they did.

As such, they used their Spiritual Art: Way of The Unfettered.

By holding their hands and sensing the connection between them formed by having the same Spiritual Art, their consciousness arrived in a single Limitless Plane shared by them.

"Great. We're back into this world together again," Rin smiled as she took a deep breath. "It feels more than real, haha."

The fresh air, the smell from the island, and the vast sea before them were a sight to behold.

"We have one hour, so let's make the best of it," Erix said before he looked back at the island filled with trees and plants. "But how about we do that while checking out this island? I am sure experiencing things here will benefit us."

"It would be great if there were monsters for us to practice, so we can go all out," Rin nodded.

The trio entered the island and soon arrived at a beautiful pond.

"So, there are indeed living creatures here."

It was a herd of gorgeous light blue deer drinking water. They turned to Erix, Rin, and Isabella, but after looking at them briefly, they continued with their things.

They were peacefully drinking water, and the atmosphere in this area was calm and refreshing.

"Let's meditate here for a while and look at the result of awakening our affinity," Erix smiled and sat down.

When they awakened their affinity, an additional phenomenon appeared in their Origin Region. For Erix, it was a faint dreamy golden metallic shard. For Rin, it was a flickering dark blue lightning bolt. And for Isabella, it was a wisp of flame.

"Wow, I can instantly access my Origin Region here," Rin exclaimed in surprise.

"Same," Isabella nodded. "I think it's because we are in our consciousness state right now."

"That must be why that mysterious woman said we would be able to learn quicker here," Erix grinned. "This is great! Let's create a bonafide skill in this hour's session. We should be able to create an elemental skill based on our affinity."

"Good idea," Rin nodded before she mischievously smiled, "Then, this is a competition. Whoever creates their skill first will be a winner and can demand anything from the other two."

"Bring it on!"

Isabella helplessly smiled but didn't oppose this game. 'Hmmm, will we even be able to create an official skill in an hour?'

However, she didn't delve into the possibility upon seeing that Rin and Erix were already meditating to make the foundation of their skill creation and quickly joined them.

After all, the first step was to decide on what kind of skill they wanted to create.
