They had arrived in… what looked like the literal pits of hell itself. there was a LOT of lava, and a LOT of fire, it looked like a giant cavern, however one thing immediately caught their eyes.
Bmon's eyes widened. "I-Is that an amusement park?" He pointed at a portion of the cavern that was covered in stalls and rides, a huge ferris wheel hovered above the entire amusement park.
"...Have you never been to one before?" Akuma replied blankly.
"...I didn't know HELL would have an amusement park." He replied honestly.
Akuma narrowed his eyes before bursting out into laughter. "HA! Did you think hell was just a cave with fire in it?" He grinned.
"Well no… But I didn't expect that!" Akuma continued laughing before sighing to catch his breath.
"Okay… This way, you see that building at the edge of the cavern? That's where our Demon Lord resides."
"…Hopefully she didn't run out of funds for her games…" He muttered to himself.
"What did you say, Akuma?" Itsuki asked curiously. "N-Nothing, let's go…" They began walking toward the Demon Lord's house. To the left there was the amusement park, to the right there were multiple houses constructed like medieval homes.
Several children ran around playing games, Demons were glancing at us wondering why there were humans in hell.
Finally, they had reached what appeared to be a more modern house; it resembled the houses of Archived Dystopia, with its more sleek design.
Bmon's eyes widened as he felt a dangerous aura coming off of the house, no… maybe it was inside the house. "A-And you promise this so-called Demon Lord, won't kill us the moment we step in?"
Akuma glanced at him, being a bit confused at the question. "No? The worst she would do is punch me out of the house in a force that can only be described as the punch of an ogre…"
"...An ogre, huh?" They opened the door slowly, Akuma nonchalantly walked inside and shouted. "Yo, Kuroi, I'm home!"
Bmon, Itsuki, and Haruki all stared at him at once. "Huh? You're the son of the demon lord" They said at the same time.
Akuma glanced at them. "...Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you that-" Suddenly, they heard someone running from the other room. Before they could react, a girl punched Akuma so hard it sent him flying through the door all the way to where they came into hell from.
Their jaws dropped as they glanced at the girl. "U-Um, we mean no harm… I think." Bmon nervously said.
The girl glanced at Bmon. "...Do you have 5 dollars?" She asked suddenly.
"...I have a lot more than that, but here…" He handed her the money and then she smiled at him. "T-Thank you so much, that idiot thought he could come home without giving me more funds…" She pointed at where the door was just seconds ago, but it was now just a hole.
Moments later, Akuma came back covered in blood. "Y-Yeah… I kinda expected that was gonna happen." Bmon glanced at his wounds. "Are you… sure you're okay?" He asked slightly worried.
Akuma coughed. "D-Don't worry about it… She does this a lot, plus demons tend to heal faster than you humans. I'll be fine in a few minutes…"
"Akuma…! You knew I was gonna be out of money to spend didn't you?!" She pouted.
"...That's on you for spending it so fast-" He paused as he felt her glaring intensely at him. "I-I mean, I was gonna bring you money, but I wanted to show my friends my home…"
Kuroi glanced at his friends for a moment before looking back. "Oh, why didn't you just say so!" She laughed.
"It's nice to meet you three, my name is Kuroi. I am the Demon Lord of Hell, and also Akuma's mother!" She said proudly.
Bmon stared at the hole that was previously the front door. "...Are you sure you should be destroying your house just because your son didn't have money on him?"
Kuroi laughed. "Ha! I can fix that in a matter of seconds!" She snapped her fingers and the door was seemingly restored in an instant.
"Wow… Nevermind, I guess you don't have to be worried about destroying your home."
Akuma let out a long sigh. "L-Let's just show them around my house, okay?"
Kuroi and Akuma gave them a tour of the entire house, before stopping at Kuroi's room. "And this is my room that I would call, a cave within a cave." She opened the door, revealing that her room was covered in video games and merchandise of said video games.
"Deja vu…" Bmon quietly mumbled to himself.
"W-Woah… There's even more recent games here…" Haruki pointed out.
"Well, of course! I tend to visit that city… Archived Dystopia, every week or so to buy new games!" Kuroi explained.
"...Bmon, you don't seem too surprised…?" Itsuki questioned.
He sighed. "My room looks like this, but with anime and manga instead, Itsuki. I don't think this surprises me that much…"
"Oh? A fellow who shares some of my interests?" Kuroi grinned.
"I suppose so, yeah." Bmon glanced at the floor, noticing that it was a mess. There was trash everywhere. "Y-Your floor sure is dirty…"
Kuroi nervously laughed. "Y-Yeah… I was supposed to clean it yesterday. B-But I got sidetracked because a new game in the "Demon Heart" series was released…"
Akuma's eyes widened before sighing. "You know I told you I wouldn't give you any more money if you stopped cleaning your room right, Demon Lord?" He grinned.
"T-That's not fair, Akuma!" Kuroi pouted.
Bmon sighed. "...Let's go home guys. This was fun and all but it's also very hot in hell…" Itsuki and Haruki shook their heads in agreement and they used the Archive Resonant to leave Hell.
Meanwhile in Archived Dystopia.
Ryūji walked along the streets as he searched for anything suspicious. His eyes widened as he saw a creature that resembled a Rhino about to attack a woman and her child. "S-Shit!"
He managed to run over fast enough to punch the creature away. It began to charge at Ryūji.
"W-What the hell is a rhino doing in a city?" He gripped his fist before punching the rhino, the force threw it into the sky.
He sighed. "...There's something going on in this city, creature's like that don't just appear out of nowhere…" The woman thanked Ryūji before leaving, and Ryūji walked back into an alleyway while sighing.
