The group entered the catacombs and they saw the graveyard that Virgil had talked about.

Ishmael: Welcome to Level Six: The Tombs of Heresy. Here are the ones who don't follow religious and/ or political "norms". For example; they don't believe that there is a life after death or believe that a human soul is immortal, and living a hedonistic lifestyle will be locked in a coffin that is always set on fire. (AN: If anyone here is offered by this; I do apologize in advance and this is from a story that is about 700 years old. I'm trying to make it as inoffensive as possible.)

All: Ok that is something.

The group went deeper into the catacombs and found Lillith's tomb. The six angels put their hands on her tomb and absorbed her power.

They then started to leave this level and head into the seventh level. Before they got to the seventh level they heard a roar in the background.

Ishmael: Get down; now.

They ran to hide and out came the mythical monster and the guard of The Circle of Violence himself The Minotaur.

All: Is that the Minotaur?

Ishmael: Yes it is; he guards the entrance to The Circle of Violence. He is strong but he is not smart at all.

Izuku: I got this.

Momo: Zuzu, what are you about to do?

Izuku: I'm about to do something stupid.

Izuku came out and distracted The Minotaur.

Izuku: Hola Minotauro, Estoy aquí para desafiarte a una Batalla. (Spanish: Hello Minotaur, I'm here to challenge you to a battle.)

Minotaur: MOOOO!!!!

Izuku: Toro. Toro. (Bull)

The Minotaur charged at him, but Izuku dodged it and stabbed him in the back.

Izuku: Hurra. (Hurrah)

While Izuku was doing his bullfighting routine, the group snuck past them to the other side. Scrappy tried to sneak off, but Cerberus carried him off.

Momo(telepathy): We are in the seventh circle. Come on over.

Izuku(telepathy): Ok Princess; I will be right there. He turns to The Minotaur. Well, Minotaur was fun, but it's time to end it.

Izuku started to use a series of deep devastating slashes across its chest and back. With a roar; The Minotaur fell to the ground; dead. Izuku then walked over to the group; the girls quickly hugged him for coming back unharmed and slapped him for scaring them. He apologized and moved on.

Ishmael: Welcome to Level Seven 1/3; The River Phlegethon. As you already know this place is for the ones who were violent against other people and their property. Their punishment is to swim in this boiling river of blood and if they try to get out they will attack.

All: Who are they?

???: Out of the way! We got a runner!

Out of nowhere group of centaurs started running after a soul who was trying to escape. They then pulled out their arrows and shot in the knees. He fell to the ground and was dragged back into the river.
