"One's named Dante, and the other's named Virgil. Virgil, that's your father."

"So... the savior that this cult talks about all the time and believes in is actually my grandfather...?"

"Rationally speaking, that's right."

"In that case, where is my father? Did he come this time?"

"I'm sorry, your father is dead." At this point, the man in red, Dante's eyes became a little dim.

"My father is dead?"

“Virgil and I pursued different paths. He was desperate for power and opened the gate from the demon world to the human world.

“I defeated him, and he fell into the demon world, where he was made into a puppet by the Demon Emperor Mendes and was killed by my own hands.

"Kid, I'm sorry."

Out of guilt for Nero, Dante was no longer as frivolous as before and explained everything to Nero.

If it were someone else, Dante certainly wouldn't have put it so clearly.

Upon learning that his father had died, Nero didn't know what expression to show. His emotions were so complicated. He was relieved that his father had died and didn't come to see him, but he was also sad that his father was killed, and angry at seeing the enemy who killed his father.

He just clenched his fists, and kept them clenched for a long time before slowly loosening them.

"I want to know, is the Demon Emperor Mendes dead?"

"His soul was too powerful. Only his body was killed. I sealed up the soul. I don't have the power to completely kill him yet."

“……” Nero was silent.

He really wanted to blame the other party for not killing the Demon Emperor, but after thinking about it, he still said so.

"That's perfect. Wait for me to kill him."

"If it's just your current strength, it's far from enough."

"Virgil is still alive." A voice sounded from outside the theater, and Dante and Nero looked towards the entrance of the theater together.

A tall dark figure followed behind the two people who looked like high school students.

As soon as he saw the masked figure, Dante felt a strong pressure. That was definitely the strongest enemy he had ever seen.

——Dante felt the threat of death from the masked figure.

——Although everyone can understand this.

"Is that a demon?" Dante subconsciously protected Nero behind him. "What do you mean Virgil is not dead yet?"

Chapter 9 sounds like something Virgil would do.

"Where is Virgil still alive in this world?" Hinata Hajime said calmly after his initial panic.

He saw the characters from games and anime in real-life settings, and to be honest, he really admired these protagonists for their talents.

If Wang Hassan had not been comforted when he first saw him, he might have been so frightened that he couldn't speak when he saw Dante.

Dante, the absolute protagonist of five generations of Devil May Cry and an animation so far, is a demon hunter with powerful strength. He lives out his own legend as the son of legend. It is said that his strength may have surpassed the legendary Sparta.

"Is that the trick where I believe he lives in my mind?" Dante questioned.

"...According to the original history, in a few years, Vergil will return from the demon world and take Nero's right hand. Then he will use the Yama Sword to separate the human and demon parts of himself."

When he heard this, Dante subconsciously glanced at Nero behind him.

Nero felt at a loss and covered his right hand.

"Sounds like something Virgil would do," Dante commented.

"Why?" Nero was very puzzled. He finally met his father, but he ended up wanting to take away his right hand.

"Maybe Virgil didn't know you were his son at that time. After all, if you hadn't called me uncle just now, I wouldn't have guessed you were his son." Dante didn't say that. With Virgil's current crazy personality, even if he knew Nero was his son, he might have done the same. He still wanted to leave some hope for this poor child.

——In fact, Dante thinks that Nero is the illegitimate son of Sparta, which is more acceptable than Virgil’s son.

He now couldn't imagine how that guy could flirt with a woman.

"Because his mother died in front of him when he was a child, Virgil has always wanted to be more powerful. Compared with his human side, Virgil identifies more with his devil side."

Hinata Hajime explained.

"So he used the Yama Blade to separate his two sides. At the same time, with the help of the passage opened by the Yama Blade, Qliphoth, a tree that grew in the demon world, came to the human world and turned countless people into its nutrients. It was fed by the blood of demons and humans. When it got enough nutrients, it would grow fruit. Any demon who ate it would gain God-given power. Only one fruit would grow every few thousand years.

"The last demon who ate this fruit was Mondes, so he became the Demon King."

"It's... unbelievable." Dante said in a surprised tone, "In order to obtain the power of Qliphoth, Vergil used countless people as nutrients for the tree?"

Dante did not distrust Hinata Hajime's words, because according to his understanding of Vergil, Vergil was indeed someone who would do such a thing. Devil May Cry 3 was caused by Vergil's desire to open the seal leading to the demon world from the human world to obtain the power of Sparta.

"…Well, it's not like Vergil necessarily fed all the humans in the city as nutrients to Qliphoth. It's also possible that Qliphoth just used the portal opened by the Yama Sword to peek into the human world. He may have just picked peaches, or maybe the separated demon side dominated him." Hinata Hajime said comfortingly.

"You don't have to comfort me. If I knew Vergil was going to do these things, I would definitely stop him." Dante is more mature than Hyuga Hajime thought. Perhaps it's because the events of the third generation have precedents. "Just like before."

Nero next to him, on the other hand, had very complicated feelings. He finally got to know the news about his father, only to find out that his father was an unforgivable villain. The first thing he did when he met his father was to tear off his hand. He was very filial to his father.

Fortunately, he had never had any contact with his father before and did not have any strong feelings for him.

And Dante's uncle seemed to be a good person, which gave him some comfort.

Just because of this incident, he had deeper doubts about the cult. Why was the cult hostile to his uncle? Why did the knights of the cult degenerate into demons?

"So do you know where Virgil is now?"

"I don't know, maybe it's the demon world."

“…Isn’t this the same as not saying anything?”

"But you can try to keep Nero by your side. His hand will react to people with the same blood as him. The perception range is not that large now, but maybe it will gradually grow with control." Hinata Hajime tried to provide a solution.

"That's a solution." Dante agreed. Even if it didn't mean that he completely believed what Hinata Hajime said, if it was his brother's son, he could keep him around to protect him. Their family had a lot of hatred. If other demons knew that Nero was the grandson of Sparda, the nephew of Dante, and the son of Virgil, God knows what Nero will encounter. Nero is still very weak now.

Another thing was that he really wanted to see the expressions of Letty and Tracy when they knew that this was Virgil's son.

"Then how do you know about this? And that devil-like figure?" Dante asked his question.

"We come from another world. Your stories are recorded in our world."

"...Other worlds? Do you mean parallel worlds? I've been to such a world before." Dante, as the creation of the Demon Emperor Mendes, went to a world that was contrary to the real world. There, Dante of that world became a minion of the Demon Emperor, and Virgil inherited the mantle of Sparta.

"It's farther than that. It's a completely different world. This King Hassan is a hero in the history of that world." Hinata Hajime introduced King Hassan next to him. King Hassan had been watching the excitement and had heard Hinata Hajime tell the story of this world before.

"Nero knew your uncle's identity because of our reminder. Otherwise, you would have fought."

"That's not a bad idea, actually." Dante said, "It's a good opportunity to check the strength of that guy's son... But I don't want Nero to follow Vergil's path."

"So, this hand is not because I was infected by the devil?" Nero silently untied the bandage wrapped around his hand, revealing the hand covered with red shells.

"I don't think any demon is powerful enough to pollute the blood of Sparta." Dante felt a lot more relaxed after the conversation and shrugged his shoulders. As long as Virgil was not dead and the tragedy in the Red Tomb City had not happened, and he still had the ability to stop it, when he met Virgil, he would let Nero play the family card and tell Virgil that there was information about other worlds. Let Virgil go to other worlds to make trouble, which might be able to minimize Virgil's obsession.

Chapter 10 Goodbye, Child

It is okay to pursue power, as long as it is done through legitimate and just behavior. Anyway, Dante knows the character of his brother.

As for whether Virgil will let go of some of his obsessions because of family affection...

Recalling the previous battle with Virgil, Virgil still often misses the old friendship of his younger brother.

So it should be able to play a slight role.

"That is incomplete demonization. It is a situation that occurs when the Spartan blood in your body feels threatened or is stimulated by the power of the devil." Hinata Hajime explained.

"But even so..." Nero looked at his hands and still felt scared. He didn't want to carry this part of the devil.

"Kid, relax." Dante comforted him. A red lightning flashed on his body, and Dante's body lost its human appearance and turned into a hideous demon, covered by a hard shell. Under the shell was a liquid flowing like molten lava, but in the next moment, it changed back from this demonic posture.

"The meaning of power lies in how to use it.

"I was once like you, unwilling to accept the identity of the Son of Sparta, nor the blood and power of this demon.

“Until I understood its purpose.

"Just like the blonde girl from before. She's someone you like, right?"

"Don't...don't talk nonsense." Nero argued dryly.

"Relax, I say, relax, at least in this respect, you are much better than your bastard dad.

“This power is to protect where your loved ones are.

"If you don't have enough strength and watch the people you love lose their lives, how would you feel then?

“It was because Virgil saw his mother die at the hands of those demons that he became obsessed with pursuing power.

“Sometimes I wonder if I had enough power at that time, I wouldn’t have to watch my mother die in front of me, and I wouldn’t have to kill Virgil.

“Don’t wait until you lose something to regret it.”

"Protect the ones you love..." Nero thought of the people around him, "Credo and Jillie."

"Is that Credo also the person you love? In fact, I also feel the power of the devil in him." Dante thought of the previous leader of the Knights Templar.

"How is this possible!?" Hearing this, Nero was even more unbelievable. Credo was also infected by the devil. Does that mean he must kill Credo as well?

"It's not as bad as you think. Although I feel the power of the devil in him, he is not as evil as other devils, nor is he controlled by power, so I didn't attack him directly, but I think you need to communicate well." If a devil chooses the side of kindness, Dante will spare their lives. "In that case, I will leave first."

"Wait." Nero subconsciously wanted to call Dante.

"We'll meet again at the headquarters of the cult." Dante instantly jumped to the broken ceiling glass and gestured goodbye, "Goodbye, kid."

At this moment, a series of footsteps sounded, and Nero quickly wrapped the bandage around his arm, and saw the arrival of a large group of Knights of the Order and Credo.

Jiliye returned to the theater again, dragging a box that looked very heavy.

"Credo." Nero didn't know what expression or mood to use to greet the serious man walking towards him.

"Nero, are you okay?" Jillie asked, putting the big box in her hand on the ground.

"Thank you, Jillie." Nero walked over and checked the contents of the box, assembling the components into a big sword.

Jillie couldn't contain her excitement and picked up the flattened box. Seeing the angel wing necklace inside, she put it on around her neck with great care and joy.

Nero turned his head and glanced at Jiliye, suppressing his emotions and whispering to Credo, "Credo, I think we need to talk."

If Jillie and other friends weren't here, he might have started cursing.

"Are these two your friends? They look a little young." Credo didn't take Nero's words to heart. "But now we don't have much time for you and your friends. You need to find the man in red."

"I say, talk to me, Credo." Nero suppressed his surging anger.

Credo felt a little surprised. He glanced at Nero with a complex emotion in his eyes. Then he said seriously, "You just need to obey my orders."

"I think it would be better for you to talk to Nero and us, Mr. Credo." Hinata Hajime said tentatively.

"Outsiders like you are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the cult." Credo said indifferently to Hinata Hajime.

"Credo, I think Nero must have some important discovery to tell you, so I think you can talk about it." Jillie advised.

Credo glanced at Jillie and said, "Okay. Then I'll listen to what you have to say."

Credo brought Nero and Hinata Hajime to the side door of the theater. Seeing that no one was there, Credo asked Nero, "Whatever you want to say, just say it here."

Chapter 11: I'm not going there to confiscate the property this time

"There's no contact from Raccoon City yet... I don't know if this thing called a chat group is a blessing or a curse." Leon hasn't received any contact from Raccoon City for a long time. He feels like there's a thorn in his heart because he doesn't report on his work. He can't just quit his job and drink at home every day.

[Leon: Have you all gone to Nero's world? ]

[Kujo Jolyne: Ah, they all went to another world. I really want to go. Even if I can't see the scenery of another world, I don't want to stay in prison.]

Leon felt that the existence of Kujo Jolyne was a little strange. Kujo Jolyne was a prisoner and he was a policeman. However, Kujo Jolyne seemed to be framed, so in that case he couldn't blame her.

After some thought, Leon decided to find Hinata Hajime to ask about his own affairs. He knew the fate of other ordinary members, but he was the only one who didn't know.

Although according to what the master said, his life was not in danger, he still had to be careful. Knowing yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in every battle.

[Leon: @Hinata Hajime, I'm going to Raccoon City soon, is there anything there? ]
