Supreme Couple In Apocalypse: Undead King & Demonic Queen

Chapter 23: Opening Rewards, Roulette Devil

Despite many treasure chests, orbs, and a single treasure crate shining in the middle of the garden, the atmosphere was heavy.

After that flower monster died, the darkness outside the garden disappeared as they returned to the real world.

However, the vine border of the monster was still there, so all of them were safe within that two thousand square meter area.

*Whistle!*

The Bloodwood Eagle released a sharp whistle as it landed beside Erix, but Aaron was still sleeping.

After all, it's barely been two hours since they left the military headquarters and arrived at the mansion of Toshin and his family.

"There's no blood dripping out…" one of the bodyguards muttered in surprise as he looked at Erix's leg.

Rin and Isabella arrived beside Erix in worry.

"Relax. My pain tolerance has shot up because of...you know what," Erix said as he sat down on the ground.

"This is going to cause you trouble," Isabella said as her eyebrows creased.

"I can fly, so my mobility won't be affected. However…." Erix trailed off as he looked at Toshin and Lena, who were mourning their son's death

Toshin's leg was also cut off. But he seemed to have closed off the wound using his mana.

"Wish we could regain all of our health and everything after leveling up," Rin said with a sigh as she felt pain looking at Erix with only one leg.

"I'm sure there are means to regenerate limbs in our current world," Erix said. "A healing skill, maybe? Or an item that merges with the body to fill the leg part like this Metacyber Arm? I feel like anything is possible."

On the other hand, a bodyguard with a black mustache and black military cut hairstyle approached Toshin, Lena, and Serina, who were crying and mourning.

"Mr. Toshin, Mrs. Lena. I can understand your pain because I also lost my son when he was four."

The bodyguard said with a sorrowful expression as he bent and put his hand on Toshin's shoulder. "But we can't stay here forever. We have to move on."

"Let's open those treasure chests and continue moving," Erix said as he adjusted his posture and robe before lying on the ground on his back.

"Let me find you a metal board so you can fly on it," Rin said before dashing towards the mall's entrance.

The mall was empty since this apocalypse happened at midnight, and at that time, malls and such locations that were void of people were not flooded by zombies.

*Clank..*

After breaking the door of the mall, Rin went inside and brought out a steel shopping trolley!

"Will this work?"

"Yep, It will work."

Erix nodded.

Isabella and Rin helped him stand up before he sat in the trolley. He used his Metal Control skill afterward and easily flew up.

"You all, open the treasure chests and distribute the rewards. We can move more comfortably after powering up," Toshin said as he wiped his face of tears. "Lena, Serina. Dig the ground, please. We have to bury Jacob and others."

"I'll help on that," Erix said, using his Metacyber Arm to help them dig four spots quickly.

Serina and Lena buried Jacob's remains inside while the bodyguards buried the three dead bodyguards in the other three spots.

"Jacob..." Lena's tears couldn't stop.

"Mom, stop crying," Serina said, her eyes red.

"I understand the pain of losing your loved one," Erix said, his voice indifferent. "I lost my mother when I was ten, cried for days, and almost died of hunger. But now is not the time to waste time. Please understand."

Toshin cleaned his eyes with his fingers and firmly nodded. "We understand. Lena, Serina, please get hold of yourselves."

After a minute, everyone surrounded the treasure chests, three mysterious black orbs, and a big treasure crate that dropped from the Helix Flower monster.

"How do we distribute them?" Serina asked as she glanced at Erix, Rin, and Isabella.

"Let's open them first and then distribute the rewards accordingly," Erix responded before turning to Rin. "Rin will open them one by one."

"Alright," Toshin and Lena had no problem, and the bodyguards agreed.

"I'll leave those three black orbs for the last and open the treasure crate first," Rin said as she walked towards the big blue-patterned treasure crate.

[Rare Treasure Crate (level 50-100): Contains multiple rewards]

Opening the crate, a burst of lights flew out before turning into orbs as they fell on the ground.

Two blue orbs and two cyan orbs.

One blue orb had an image of a four-piece black outfit set with beautiful moonlight-colored designs:

A black tennis cape.

A long skirt.

A black t-shirt with a white skull symbol.

A pair of black boots.

***

[Dawnless Armor Set: Dawnless Cap, Dawnless Skirt, Dawnless T-shirt, and Dawnless Boots.]

- Set Effect (2-piece): Mana points regeneration increased to 0.5 mana points per second.

- Set Effect (4-piece): +25 all stats. Infusing 20 mana in the boots increases your movement speed by 20% for 10 seconds.

***

All stats meant that it also increased Magic stat!

"This is a female armor set. I'll replace my current one with it." Rin touched the orb and replaced her current set with the new Dawnless Armor Set.

Her current set was replaced while the old set appeared on the ground.

"Who wants this Set?" Rin said as she showed the armor set she previously wore to others.

[Novice Merciless-Merc Set: Includes a pair of gloves, a pair of boots, a robe, and a level 15 knife].

[-Set effect 1: Stamina +10, Strength +10, Agility +10, Health+10].

[-Set effect 2: 5% chance to deal a critical hit that doubles your attack]

"Who among you want it?" Erix asked as he looked at Toshin and his group. He didn't want this, and Isabella also didn't need it since she could get something better later from the remaining treasure chests.

"Monty, take it."

Toshin turned to a bodyguard who looked like he was in his early thirties and nodded.

After Monty touched the set and wore it with a thought, everyone looked at the second blue orb.

This blue orb had no particular image in it. It was all just a whirling blue mass.

"Let's see…." Rin bent down and touched the orb as it glowed for a second before turning into a spinning roulette with five sections!

However, it was covered in a cloud of smoke for a second before everyone heard a peal of creepy laughter! It was sharp and quick, something not possible for a human throat.

"Yeihehehe... Congratulations to you for summoning the great Roullete Devil. That is me! Yeihehehe…"

The one speaking was a miniature joker with dark red horns, the size of a palm, who stood on the roulette that manifested in the middle of the group.

"W-Wha…" Serina stammered and stumbled back as she felt creepy goosebumps.

The others were also startled, while Rin jumped back and took out her sword with a cautious expression.

"Yiehohehe…relax, relax. I am just a wish-fulfilling great roulette devil, so now, now… who is going to spin this devil? Oh, wait, before that~."

"Yiehehe, let me explain to you about this roulette. Out of those five sections, the one with the scroll symbol means a skill."

"The one with the box symbol means an item."

"The one with the DNA symbol means an innate talent."

"The one with an egg symbol means a beast companion."

The devil narrowed its creepy dark red eyes with gray pupils and showed a wide grin before continuing, "And lastly, this one with the skull symbol means a delicious death."
