Before you enter Everlasting Darkness, be sure to raise your level to around 85. In addition to the continuous RP drain, many enemies will gang up on you. Some of the areas are small, so its difficult to clear them if you're underleveled.

The Everlasting Darkness will continuously drain your RP as long as you're inside. The amount of RP taken away on each tick also increases as you delve deeper.
Prepare food and other potions before entering the dungeon like Pickled Turnip and Boiled Pumpkin. You can also warp back to Rigbarth anytime if you need to restock recovery items or if you want to rest on your bed. You will just need to restart from the beginning of the floor.

When you reach Level 25 on a weapon, you unlock Ultimate Attacks for it. They are additional attacks at the end of the combo that deals massive damage and consumes RP.
Since this dungeon saps your RP, its better to avoid doing it often. You can cancel an Ultimate Attack by dashing before it happens.

| ・Keep your distance when it summons dark tornadoes |

Stay away from Umbradea when it starts glowing as it will unleash four dark tornadoes around it. Wait for her to finish the attack before you close in again.
This part of the dungeon doesn't deplete your RP continuously so you can opt to safely cast spells from a distance, especially if you're low on HP.

Actually I'm pretty sure the reason you don't get rp drained during the boss fight is cause since radea is fighting you not draining rp
