Abrial remained silent throughout the exchange, looking as though she was deep in thought. Alex wondered what was on her mind, but didn't want to interrupt the conversation.

Instead, he took the opportunity to ask Sitri a question that had been nagging him since their earlier conversation.

"By the way, Sitri, I was wondering... what kind of weapon do you use?"

Sitri's smile widened, and she drew her sword from its sheath. "This one," she said simply, holding it out for Alex to examine. It was a slender, curved blade, with intricate designs etched into the metal. Alex was impressed by its beauty, but also a little intimidated by its sharpness.

Overall, the group seemed to be in good spirits, with the exception of Abrial, whose thoughts remained a mystery. Alex hoped that she would open up to him soon, as he was curious to learn more about her.

Nyssa reluctantly agreed to Alex's selection, and although she didn't seem happy about it, she didn't argue. Alex felt both excited and nervous about the upcoming competition, which would be a fight to the death.

He knew he enjoyed the thrill of a fight, even though one mistake could mean the end of his life. The rush of adrenaline was addictive, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement at the thought of testing his skills in combat.

"Sure, I'll let Justinian know that we're ready," Nyssa said with a sigh. Alex couldn't help but notice her disapproval, but he didn't let it bother him. He was determined to prove himself and come out on top in the competition.

He knew that the stakes were high, and the consequences of losing were severe, but he was confident in his abilities.

He took a deep breath, feeling the familiar rush of excitement and adrenaline, and prepared himself for the fight of his life.

Estair, the leader of the ninth district, signalled to one of his retainers who immediately led a young demon girl out of the room.

She was to speak alone to the Ruler of Sin, a member of the Pillar of Wrath, and two dangerous subordinates of the Shah of Sloth. Understandably, she was terrified.

After the girl left, Justinian entered the room alone. None of the three individuals who later exited with him had gone in with him.

It was clear that the meeting was a test, and Justinian wasted no time in stating its purpose. "I will assume that you are prepared to participate in my test," he declared.

Alex felt a rush of anxiety and excitement at the thought of what lay ahead. Despite knowing that the stakes were high, he couldn't help but feel a thrill of anticipation.

The others, too, were probably feeling a mix of fear and excitement, but they all remained stoic, showing no outward signs of emotion.

Estair gave them a nod of encouragement before they left, and Alex could not help but wonder what would happen next.

Asmodea nodded in agreement with Estair's words, and then turned her attention towards Alex and his team. "Well, it looks like it's time for the competition to begin," she said. Sitri, Abrial, and Zagan all stood up to join her.

Sitri expressed her confidence in her ability to win, and Zagan made a snarky comment about her being a typical Lord of Lust.

Asmodea then informed Alex that she would show him where her team would be waiting for him in the area where they would be fighting.

To ensure fairness, neither team would have prior knowledge of the area. They would each have exactly one day to examine their respective halves of the environment and formulate their game plans.

Asmodea emphasized that the basic rule of survival applied: the victor would come from the remaining side.

However, she also made it clear that any demon, angel, or human who was knocked unconscious, rendered unable to fight or move, or passed away would be transferred away. With that, the group left the room and went their separate ways to prepare for the upcoming competition.

Alex couldn't help but feel a mix of excitement and apprehension. The stakes were high, and the consequences of failure were dire. However, he was determined to give it his all and emerge victorious. He knew that the next few days would be a true test of his skills and abilities.

Alex was perplexed by Justinian's ability to teleport him and his companions to another world without using the usual teleportation stones or monument.

He couldn't comprehend how this could be possible. His mind raced with questions about the new world he was going to be transported to. "What kind of world is it going to be? And what does that imply for us?" he wondered out loud.

Alex had been informed by Asmodea that Orcus was one of the few demons who could travel between worlds or realms without the use of stones or monuments, but this applied only to one particular demon.

The prospect of being transported to an entirely new world brought up a range of emotions in Alex, including excitement, curiosity, and fear.

He was excited about the possibility of experiencing a new world, but at the same time, he was apprehensive about what he might find there.

He was worried about the dangers he might face, the unfamiliar creatures he might encounter, and the challenges he might have to overcome.

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.
