Right before the match started Alex and the entire ORC were on a lift headed to Agreas, the floating devil city. Though he didn't show it, Alex was very excited to see the floating islands with waterfalls, as floating islands were part of most fantasy worlds in movies. After arriving at the islands, they were then shuttled into some limos to be taken to a hotel until the games started. As they entered the lobby, he noticed a group with a very sinister aura that started watching them. He squinted his eyes, and Azazel said,
"Lord Hades, I didn't think a skeleton geezer like you would show up!" Hades looked at Azazel with his eyeless sockets and said,
"Damn crow, you're all making so much noise up here I was curious. Or do you plan to get rid of me like Loki?" Before Azazel could answer Alex spoke up,
"As long as there's no reason to then nope." Both looked at him with shock, before Hades realized that the one he was looking at was the one who beat Loki. His eyeless sockets seemed to squint, and he said,
"Welsh dragon, I recall the last time you rampaged in hell with the white one. I hope you don't kick the bucket today, I didn't come here to take your soul after all." Hades then walked off with the rest of the grim reapers that came with him. Azazel sighed then slightly glared at Alex,
"I suppose you have your reasons for acting the way you did, but I'm going to say it anyways, don't antagonize that guy!" Alex shrugged at his words, but pretended to listen. What Azazel didn't know was that Hades directly starts to take hostile actions against the rest of the factions. Starting with temporarily giving Samael to the hero faction, he also starts to experiment with creating super Devils in the future.
He decided to do something about Hades in the near future, and turned to the next people to arrive, a couple of buff dudes with mustaches came over and said,
""We're here Azazel!"" Azazel sighed and said,
"Welcome, to the top of Greco gods Zeus and Poseidon. I always wish Hades was as easy to get along with as you two." The two then started talking about how Azazel was still single. Alex was looking at Zeus weirdly, as he recalled Zeus was pretty much the God of being horny, as most myths started with him not keeping it in his pants. Suddenly Rosswiesse shouted out,
"ODIN!" And the rest turned to see Odin being escorted by a new Valkyrie. Rosswiesse was so angry that she looked as if she was about to blow a gasket, until Alex wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her close. She then turned red from embarrassment, and both the Valkyrie and Odin went wide eyed. The Valkyrie then exclaimed at Rosswiesse,
"So what lord Odin said was true, you went and got yourself a boyfriend Rosswiesse!" Rosswiesse turned even redder when her former colleague called her out on it, and Odin added fuel to the flames.
"So the virgin Valkyrie did it huh?" Rosswiesse then surprised everyone present by shouting out,
"IM NOT A VIRGIN ANYMORE!!!"
They all froze as Rosswiesse's words echoed throughout the room. Realization dawned on her, and she then squatted down and tried to hide herself. However her words had been enough to shut both Odin and the other Valkyrie up, and the two left swiftly as if fleeing. Alex felt sorry for the new girl that had to escort the perverted old man.
After that they left to their room, though Rosswiesse practically fled there, and they all started warming up even though there were several hours left until starting. Ravel soon approached Alex and handed him a box.
"Nice." Was all he said as he looked inside. Alex then left to a changing room, and soon emerged wearing his new combat uniform. He had based it off of Goku's uniform, but it had a couple changes. The color for one, instead of orange Alex had it made a dark red, as the red dragon emperor. He also had the crest on the back made to look like a dragon and monkey fighting, for his dragon powers and Saiyan blood. He also didn't have the usual accessories Goku did, like the weighted boots, wristlets, and shirt. Since it showed off his muscles the girls around also nodded their heads in agreement.
As for the uniforms of the others, Rias, Koneko, Kiba, and Gasper were wearing their academy uniforms. Akeno was wearing miko robes, Rosswiesse her Valkyrie armor, Xenovia her bondage looking church outfit, and finally Asia was wearing her saint's robes. As the Gremory group continued warming up, Alex started meditating like how Wukong taught him. As he entered his trancelike state, time didn't seem to flow the same, after what only felt like a few minutes it was time for the first match to start.
Alex and the rest made their way to the stadium. He then separated with the others, as they went to the arena entrance, and Alex was called to sit with the VIPs. He was curious about this, but went to the VIP area where he found The four Maou, Michael and Gabriel, the gods he met previously, Wukong and Yu-Long, Tannin, and several others he didn't recognize. The two dragons were in a mini form, which Alex had to admit made them look quite cute. When he saw him enter, Sirzechs called him over,
"Alex over here." And pointed to the seat next to him, that was also next to Wukong. He sat there and asked,
"I thought this area was only for VIPs?" Sirzechs laughed and said,
"I just wanted to watch the match with my future brother in-law. After all the one fighting is my sister, your girlfriend." Wukong nodded and added,
"And this way i can also give any advice to my student after watching them fight before its your turn." Alex nodded and sat between the two, as Azazel's voice sounded out, and announced the beginning of the match.
