little more than that he dropped in from the ceiling out of nowhere landed in front of sanctus shot him the order basically went to fight him (you can imagine how that went) he ended up in front of kyrie and covered in blood THATS when I dropkicked him oh and i threw a huge statue sword at him and punched him a lot? ended up impaling him with his sword by the end of it
Hm. That sounds like a perfectly reasonable reaction to Dante. I can't blame him for killing the old man, though. He was..overzealous. To an excessive degree.
he was a pain in the ass tbh dante killed him the first time but he came back didnt get why he couldnt beat me even when he had sparda ended up fusing himself to the savior and i crushed his face in ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
shes someone special really special weve known each other since we were kids it was her family that adopted me into theirs
He came back? How? When I was there, he and his..cronies were obsessive, but did not possess such capabilities. He's been stopped?
[ Ah, and there's a little bitter note that settles at the back of his throat when he reads that. He hadn't held any particular affection for that woman, but the fact that she would leave him... ]
Curious. I'm...aware that there are some methods humans may use to obtain a facsimile of a demon's power. It typically requires a great deal of blood and sacrifice. [ And deceit, manipulation, and a stupid costume. ] A ritual where death becomes the catalyst for a demonic transformation is new. Do you know what information they were working off of, where they got it from?
[ The next response comes in later, about 5 minutes after the first is sent. It's difficult, sometimes, to come to terms with the fact that someone so unequivocally good is his offspring. More than that, though, is the sudden memory that surges into the forefront of his mind. ]
You run an orphanage together. I presume you live there, as well. [ That must have been where he'd found the boy. That must have been where he'd taken Nero's arm. ] How did the Yamato come to be in your arm, Nero?
i dont think death was a catalyst but maybe it was a way to bring sanctus back since yknow he was shot in the head im pulling at straws tbh this was more up the alley for a certain bug asshole
we do yeah shes the one who runs most of it though i watch the kids but she's the real vip tbh
[But the last question has him stop what he's doing, honestly considering how to approach all of this. He could explain it this way, make a short story out of a long one, but that doesn't feel right to him. Vergil deserves to know.]
uh thats thats a long story you got some time? ill come find you rather would tell you in person anyway
Bug asshole. I'm afraid you've lost me. Certain demons do have insectoid features, as you've no doubt noticed. But "bug assholes" are..another thing that is new.
[ Nero can't see it, but Vergil's eyes narrow at the next few texts he receives. The orphanage is secondary (even if he is impressed with the boy for running one. What is so important about how Nero got the Yamato that he wishes to discuss it in person? ]
I have time. I'll be back shortly. You know where it is, I presume.
