As Alex opened his eyes, he saw that he was in a completely different environment from where he had just been. The scene was overwhelming to him, as he had never seen anything like it before.
A massive arena-like structure was towering over him, and he could see demons, angels, and humans all around him, preparing for what appeared to be a battle.
As he tried to orient himself, Alex felt a pang of fear grip his heart. He realized that he had no idea where he was or what he was supposed to do. As he looked around, he saw that his companions were just as confused as he was.
Suddenly, a voice boomed out from the arena, and Alex recognized it as Justinian's. "Welcome to the realm of the Ruler of Sin! You have been brought here to participate in a test of your skills, strength, and survival instincts. Your objective is simple: be the last ones standing. The rules are also straightforward: anything goes, and the last ones standing win. Good luck to you all!"
Alex gulped nervously, feeling the weight of the situation pressing down on him. He couldn't afford to lose, not when his life and the lives of his companions were at stake.

After he sat up, Alex looked around and saw that his companions were also lying down and getting up one by one. They all seemed to be in a daze, much like Alex. As they looked around, they couldn't help but notice the strange landscape around them. The sky was orange, and the sun was a strange shade of red, which made everything around them look even more bizarre.
As they started to walk, they noticed that the ground was soft, almost like sand. However, it was not the same as the sand they knew. It was gritty, and when they picked it up, it was hot to the touch. The building they were in was made of bricks, but they were not the same bricks they had seen before. They had an orange tinge, and they looked like they had been baked in a kiln.
As they explored the area, they saw that there were other ruins scattered around them, and it looked like there had been a great civilization here once. Alex couldn't help but wonder what had happened to this world and why it was abandoned.
As Alex approached the courtyard, he noticed that the group was huddled together and seemed to be deep in conversation. As he drew closer, Asmodea spotted him and called out his name, welcoming him to the group.
After exchanging pleasantries, Asmodea explained to Alex that the courtyard was the designated meeting point for their group and that they would wait there until everyone had arrived. Asmodea also briefed Alex on what she had observed in the area so far.
According to Asmodea, the ruins they were in seemed to be abandoned for a long time, and the orange sand was likely due to a massive desert that had formed in the area. She also mentioned that she had noticed several other groups of demons, angels, and humans in the vicinity, all of whom were likely participants in the competition.
As they continued to wait for the rest of their group, Orcus began to examine the structure of the ruins, trying to determine what they were made of and how old they might be. Limbra and Sitri, on the other hand, engaged in a lively debate about the rules of the competition and what strategies they should employ to emerge victorious.
Alex took in the sight of the impressive tree at the centre of the courtyard and the circular pond surrounded by lush green vegetation. Despite the beauty of his surroundings, he couldn't shake off the feeling of unease that came with not knowing where the rest of his team was.
He approached the group that already consisted of Asmodea, Orcus, Limbra, and Sitri and asked if they had any information about the others. Asmodea informed him that they were either in a different location or disoriented, adding that she was worried about him.
Alex appreciated her concern but quickly shifted his focus back to finding the rest of their team. "Yes, and before we engage in any further activity, let's first locate the remaining individuals. It is definitely the way to go."
He knew that they needed to regroup and plan their strategy if they were going to win this competition. With his analytical mind, Alex suggested that they locate the remaining individuals before engaging in any further activity.

"My knowledge is limited on the subject because I have never been to a location like this before. However, if I were to hazard a guess, I would wager that we are currently situated within the confines of the Hellish realm," Asmodea replied calmly.
Alex's mind raced with a flurry of questions and concerns, "THE Hell? The one where the souls and spirits of those who have committed sins after death go?" he exclaimed, struggling to maintain his composure for a brief moment. He had encountered many otherworldly beings and places, but the notion of being in Hell still took him aback.
Asmodea nodded in response, "Yes, the very same. But don't worry, we are not here to suffer. We are here for a competition."
