Chapter 214: Results, Insight, Free Time (1/2) :3
Both battles took barely ten seconds to finish after Zenia and Morgana used their domains.
Neither of them could hold back and went all out against Erix and Rin, who were already stretched beyond their usual limit.
The domain dispersed, showing the results.
At one place, Zenia's whole body had cuts, and she was bleeding with a large slash on her stomach that she had closed, her mouth oozing out blood.
At another place, Morgana's exoskeleton was shattered while her skin was cracking and oozing blood.
However, standing before Zenia was Rin, her entire left half cut off and the other half burned. Her eyes were white with no pupil visible. Dead.
Before Morgana, Erix was separated into five different seven chunks covered in dark purple frost. Deader than Dead.
But suddenly, Lilith's barrier eyes glowed and released a dark red stream towards Erix and Rin.
Morgana and Zenia saw Lilith's power enveloping Rin and Erix while their powers lost their effects instantly.
A second later, the dark red cocoon vanished as Rin and Erix appeared once again, perfectly fine.
"W-what the fuck…" Rin muttered. She clearly felt death and died. Her consciousness was wholly blank after her attack clashed with Zenia, but she lost the bout.
The same thing happened with Erix. He unleashed his most powerful punch attack, Symphony Echo Punch, which was already improved and infused with his powers of Nihilir Essence, but he still lost the bout and was struck by Morgana's deadly ice attacks.
All four of them heard Lilith's voice in their heads, calling them back.

Everyone flew there, and Rin immediately asked, "What was that?"
"That's sub-power of my domain," Lilith smiled. "Death Reverse. If someone dies, I can preserve that death status and soul from leaving so I can revive them again after healing their body."
"So that's why you told us to go all out," Morgana muttered.
Lilith waved at her and healed both of them as she said with a smile, "Haha, they also did a number on you. Surprised, right?"
"Usually, if you die, your soul immediately leaves your body, so there is no chance of reviving even if you heal the body…" Zenia said, her eyes on Lilith becoming more shocked. "You awakened your soul?!"
'No wonder….she has a whole new arsenal of power that directly boosts her everything.'
"Wait, Lilith…You knew we would lose, right?" Erix asked.
"But we had confidence all this time to beat Royal-order," Rin muttered, "It turned out to be over-confidence."
"You two are powerful, very powerful at Noble-order rank, but that also made you cloud your eyes a bit," Lilith grinned. "So battling against bonafide Royal-order powerhouse who have their arsenals together was something you two needed to see how powerful an average Royal-order powerhouse is."
"Ayo…we are not average," Morgana crossed her arms under her bust and snorted.
"If I said you are average, then you are average," Lilith raised her eyebrows.
Zenia's lips twitched while Morgana weakly smiled upon hearing that. They had to swallow that despite not agreeing with Lilith.
Lilith looked at Erix and Rin.
"Have a break for the rest of the day and focus on anything aside from training so that your subconscious can compile and digest what you've experienced."
"When you use your spiritual art training method tomorrow, you will get more insights and paths," Lilith smiled. "Since you experience the power of Royal-order, then you should know what you need to kill them."
"You can kill them, but you just need that one skill, one technique, just one move, to do that."
Rin and Erix understood. This serious battle with Zenia and Morgana truly opened their eyes about what it was to be a Royal-order.
The difference between Royal-order and Noble-order was way higher than the difference between Noble-order and Supra-order. Utterly vast. This also made Noble-order powerhouses akin to the normal workforce in the Abyss.
One could only get a proper rise after reaching Royal-order!
But Rin and Erix had enough powers cultivated to kill Royal-order powerhouse. They just needed a more powerful attack capable of utilizing those powers in a way capable of killing a Royal-order powerhouse in one move.
Lilith wanted them to do that because if Royal-order powerhouses faced Rin and Erix, they would look down on them and wouldn't go all out from the start.
However, Rin and Erix could take that advantage to kill them in one shot, but they needed to create that one-shot attack.
"Erix, take Reinala, Lynia, and Maleina to that pond or anywhere else to drain them," Lilith said.
"Ah, yeah, it's time," Erix looked at the trio and snapped his finger, shooting three tiny Nihilir Wisps toward them before they disappeared.
"I'll join him," Rin said with a wry smile. "I spent some Blood essence, but I was close to finally leveling up my bloodline."
"Do that," Lilith nodded with a grin, "You roughly need 78 loads to upgrade your Bloodline and unlock more power along with a surprise."
"Is it related to the strange power you use?" Rin's eyes shone.
Lilight mischievously laughed.
"Who knows? Do it to find out."
*Zaap*
Rin disappeared with a tiny flash of lighting.
"Now then…" Lilith swept her glance at Zenia, Morgana, and Wolt.
"I have a task for you three."
"What task, lady Lilith?" Wolt asked, stepping forward as he stood at Zenia's left.
"Follow me," Lily smiled at them and flew away.
"Go," Lilith beckoned with her hand.
Zenia, Morgana, and Wolt flew behind Lily.
"Umm, what about us?" Lyra asked hesitantly.
The other Noble-order powerhouses also waited.
"You can escape if you want to leave your current guild and this party," Lilith playfully smiled. "I will not stop any of you."
"This barrier will not stop you from leaving for the next minute. So you have one minute to decide."
Klelia wanted to stay something but remained silent. 'I am scared…but they've been nice, so lady Lilith might listen?'
Klelia wanted to spar with those Noble-order powerhouses like yesterday because they were around her level, and she was improving with them.
But if they leave, she won't have any sparring partners.
She would become the weakest of the group!
Her glance went to Lyra and Velmord. 'These two might not leave, and that will be perfect. The others are weak anyway.'
She decided to wait instead of speaking to Lilith.
