Coincidentally, on the second day after Sareth and V arrived in this city, Dante and the others happened to return to the shop.
It could not be helped. Although they went out to investigate the Demon Bible, they did not obtain anything. It was not good that they had not opened the shop for a few days. When Sareth came to the human world, many demons had emerged from spatial rifts. Although most of them had already perished, there were still sporadic demons and monsters scattered everywhere. These demons were still attacking humans and needed demon hunters to eliminate them. If they did not open the shop, they would not be able to receive any commissions.
After returning, Trish and Lady agreed to go shopping and buy clothes together, leaving only the old man Dante to go back and guard the shop without water and electricity alone. The only thing that could comfort him was that Trish promised to bring back a strawberry sundae for him…
Walking into the shop, Dante looked at the dusty and dirty office and sighed. He was hungry, so he opened the box of pizza on the table. There were two slices of pizza left, but they were from a few days ago and were already giving off a rotten smell. When he smelled it, he was so disgusted that he could only throw it away.
He sat down on the chair and habitually placed his feet on the office table. But before he could relax, the door of the shop suddenly opened, and an old black gentleman walked in.
“Morrison? Your nose is still really sharp. You came to me as soon as I got back…” Seeing the old man, Dante was not surprised. “Is there anything good for me?”
This black old man was Morrison, an information broker who had been cooperating with Dante and the others. He was extremely resourceful and had connections with many demon-hunting organizations in the underground world. Every time Morrison appeared in the shop, it meant that there might be a commission. To the current Dante, who had no money to pay the electricity and water bills, he was definitely the most welcomed person.
Morrison smiled. “Just came back? Speaking of which, where have you been the past few days? The little lady Patty wanted to invite you to her birthday party, but she couldn’t contact you at all. She even called me!”
“Don’t tease, Morrison. You’re a smart person. Don’t tell me that you don’t know what I went out to do?” Dante spread his hands. He did not believe that Morrison did not know what he had been doing. Then he said helplessly, “As for Patty… I really don’t want to go…”
“Ha, who told you to spout nonsense?” Morrison took off his hat and laughed. “You said that you would date her when she grows up. Haven’t you thought that women will remember some words for life?”
“Okay, okay. Stop messing with me, Morrison…” Dante surrendered. “Why are you looking for me?”
Morrison sat down on a couch beside him. “It’s indeed something good. I received a job with an advance payment…”
“Oh?!” Dante’s interest was immediately piqued. “Advance payment? I like the sound of that. I need to get running water here so that I can flush the toilet…”
Indeed, not only was there a musty smell in Dante’s shop, but there was also a faint stench drifting from the toilet…
Morrison stood up, took out an envelope from his pocket, gestured to Dante, and then threw it on the table. “The water, electricity, and gas bills have all been deducted from your share!”
Just as Dante picked up the envelope and before he had time to open it, the lights in the shop suddenly lit up, the electric fan above his head started slowly turning, and a faint sound of water running came from the toilet tank. Especially the neon sign outside, the enormous ‘Devil May Cry’ words flickered twice before completely lighting up. It was as though the entire shop had come alive at this moment. “Oh…” Dante sighed. “I love this feeling…”
Morrison nodded, took out a cigar from his pocket, and lit it. “Now that your shop has reopened, let’s meet the client!”
Dante looked at the door and saw it open slightly. A black-haired man wearing a sleeveless leather jacket and with tattoos covering both arms silently walked in. He held a cane in his right hand and a poetry book in his left. He crossed his arms and leaned against the wall by the door.
Before Dante could ask, another figure emerged from the door.
When Dante saw this figure, his eyes almost popped out, and he blurted out, “Sareth?! How can it be you?!”
Saras had Calamity at his waist and carried Executioner on his back. After entering, he looked around Dante’s office and curled his lips. “Do you think I really want to appear in front of you? Your place sucks… Nero’s is much better.”
The muscles on Dante’s face twitched, and he said with a headache, “Where did you learn the word ‘sucks’?” “From Nico!” Sareth shrugged, jumped slightly, and sat on Dante’s desk. Morrison looked at Sareth meaningfully as he put on his hat. He said to Dante, “Okay, I’ll go find Trish and Lady. They have to go too.”
Hearing this, Dante could no longer care about Sareth. He quickly said to Morrison, “What?! Please, with me around, do you think this matter can’t be resolved? Can’t you let me save some private money?”
“It’s a big case this time, Dante. You can’t underestimate it. You need some help…” While speaking, Morrison opened the door and walked out, completely ignoring Dante’s request. After Morison left, Dante said helplessly, “Okay, Sareth. Tell me. Why did you come here to make fun of me instead of staying with Nero?”
“I’m not here to make fun of you. I’m not that bored…” Sareth tapped Dante’s table unhappily and gestured at V. “Let him tell you.”
“Okay…” Dante looked at V, whom he thought was acting pretentious by reading his book with his arms crossed, and said with a displeased tone, “What’s your name?”
V did not answer Dante. As he walked, he read a sentence from the poetry book. “‘I have no name; I am but two days old.””

Not only was Dante speechless, but even Sareth was speechless. Although V had asked him not to expose his identity in front of Dante, when he thought about it carefully, what V said now was really appropriate. I guess he really is only two days old after being separated.
Dante could not help but look at Sareth and ask with his eyes, Is your friend crazy?
Sareth shrugged and did not say anything. But at this moment, V suddenly smiled. “Just kidding. You can call me V.”
Although Sareth had suspended V in the air for the past two days, his condition was much better than at first. At least his skin had some color, and he was no longer as pale as before. Although he still looked thin and weak, he at least looked like a normal person.
“Okay, V…” Dante leaned back in his chair and gestured with his hand. “Do you mind telling me about the case?”
“A… powerful demon is about to awaken. We need your help, Dante…” V said.
Dante chuckled, got up from his chair, and went to get some beer from the fridge. At the same time, he said, “This sounds familiar… You know, I’ve heard this many times.”
“This time… it’s a little different, Dante!” V turned and faced Dante.
Dante opened a bottle of beer and took a sip. He sat back on the chair in front of the office and asked in a relaxed tone, “Different? Okay, how is it different?”
“This demon represents your ‘reason’…” V pointed at Dante. “Your ‘reason’ for fighting!”
“Oh?” After hearing V’s words, Dante was finally interested. “Then, what’s the name of this demon?”
After looking at Dante for a long time, V finally said a name under Dante’s puzzled gaze. “Vergil!”
After hearing this name, Dante was stunned. Then he slammed his hands on the office table, stood up from his chair, and stared at V intently. “What did you say? Say it again!”
“You didn’t hear wrongly, Dante!” V said calmly. “This demon that’s about to awaken is called Vergil!”
“What the hell is going on?!” Dante frowned. At this moment, he no longer had the decadent aura from before, and he became imposing. Even Sareth was stunned. He did not expect this decadent uncle to have such an astonishing aura. Afterward, V did not hide it from Dante and told him about Vergil transforming into a demon. But here, he hid the truth about himself and only said that Vergil had returned from the Demon World, taken back Yamato from Nero, and become a powerful and terrifying true demon. Perhaps it would not be long before he appeared in front of the world.
As Dante listened, the expression on his face kept changing. He never thought that such a big thing would happen in just a few days after he left Nero. Moreover, he had been searching for any possible news about Vergil in the past few days. He thought that he had found nothing, but he did not expect that the situation would change so drastically in the blink of an eye.
“Is this true?” Dante looked at Sareth, hoping to get confirmation from him.
“It’s true. Nero’s right arm is gone…” Sareth nodded. “It happened not long after you left. I don’t know how Nero is now… I hope he’s okay…” “What about you? How did you get together with… V?” Dante asked with a frown.
Sareth shrugged. “Don’t look at me like that. I didn’t take the opportunity to escape. No matter what, Nero took me in for a while… I wanted to avenge Nero, but that guy used Yamato to cut open space. After chasing after him, I found that I had run to a strange place. In the end, I encountered V, so I came back with him.”
Sareth was not lying. This was indeed the case. However, he hid the fact that Vergil had used Yamato to separate himself and did not expose V’s true identity, which he and V had agreed on.
“Damn it!” After hearing this, Dante could not help but smash his fist on the table and say in annoyance, “This is really troublesome…”
Before Dante could decide what to do, the ground suddenly trembled. The trembling was not intense, but it was continuously shaking.
“Earthquake?” The three of them could not help but feel puzzled as they looked at the dust falling from above their heads. However, they soon discovered that this did not seem to be an earthquake in the conventional sense because the tremors continued without stopping for more than ten minutes. Moreover, the magnitude of the tremors was at a relatively constant level. Ordinary earthquakes would not be like this.
“What’s going on?” The three of them were confused. They left the room and walked onto the street. It was already dark, and they could no longer see anyone. But because of the continuous tremors, they could hear panicked cries coming from the human residences everywhere.
At this moment, the roar of a motorcycle came. An awesome motorcycle flew over and stopped after a beautiful drift in front of the shop. After the motorcycle stopped, Trish and Lady took off their helmets and walked over quickly. As they walked, they shouted at Dante, “Not good, Dante! Turn on the TV!”
The five of them rushed back into the shop like a swarm of bees. Trish and Lady did not even have the time to greet Sareth and the stranger V when they saw them. As soon as they entered, they went straight to the television and turned it on.
On the television, there was a piece of news being broadcasted. On the screen, many people were fleeing in panic, and the houses in the distance were continually collapsing. But this was not the most important. Most importantly, a gigantic black shadow was constantly emerging from the ground and spreading toward the sky.
This was the true epicenter of the earthquake. The city that Dante and the others were in had experienced nothing more than the aftershock…
Seeing what was on the news, everyone was dumbfounded. “What… what is that?!”
