Dante continued climbing the enormous tree. After passing the tenth floor and facing Akira, nothing else happened. Honestly, it seemed like that place was completely empty. Besides the strange sounds of pulsations and heartbeats, nothing could be heard that made a difference, and that was completely weird.
Dante carried [Devil Ex-Calibur] on his shoulder as he walked inside a huge, very hot tube. Despite barely feeling the emerging heat, he had been climbing for a few hours without any enemies appearing, and honestly, he was bored.
"I should have brought that battle-crazy demon with me. I think it would have been more fun," Dante said, mocking the situation. Well, that's what he could do, right? It was either that or become completely enraged and destroy everything.
