Chapter 433 - Many Mysteries (1/2)
After hearing what Roy said, Dante was silent for a while before finally returning to his human form. He inserted Demon Sword Dante into the ground in front of Roy, then let go and took two steps back.
Seeing that he finally compromised, Roy nodded in satisfaction. He stretched out his hand and sucked over the Yamato beside Vergil.
Demon Sword Dante and Yamato floated beside Roy, which was equivalent to gathering all three weapons that Sparda had left behind.
“Very good!” Roy tossed a test tube containing a red liquid to Dante. “This is a recovery potion that can help Vergil recover. Whether you believe it or not is up to you.”
Dante held the potion and hesitated for a moment before returning to Vergil’s side. He fed the unconscious and seriously injured Vergil the potion.
Then he saw that the wounds on Vergil’s body really began to heal faster, and the muscle tissues were growing rapidly. In just a few seconds, Vergil’s torn open chest had closed again.
It was not until this moment that Dante realized that Demon Lord Osiris did not seem to have the intention of deceiving him.
After Roy obtained Demon Sword Dante and Yamato, he walked back with the two weapons and sat on his frozen throne. Sareth also ran back, stood behind the throne with Cassandra and the others, and waited curiously for Roy to start.
Roy’s hands glowed with magic power as he extended them toward the two floating weapons. When his hands touched the surface of the weapons, a ripple appeared in the void, and Roy’s hands disappeared as though they had reached into water. When his hands retracted, there were two balls of black light in each of his palms.
The larger soul naturally came from Demon Sword Dante, and the smaller one came from Yamato. When Roy pulled out these two soul fragments that belonged to Sparda from the weapons, Demon Sword Dante and Yamato seemed to cry out, and the light of the weapons immediately dimmed.
Although they were not destroyed, anyone could tell that after losing the soul fragments of Sparda, the two weapons were no longer as powerful as before.
Seeing this, Dante naturally felt sad, and Nero also felt a little uncomfortable.
However, Roy did not care so much. He placed his hands together and kneaded the two soul fragments together.
At first, these two soul fragments were still clearly separated, but after all, they belonged to the same source. So after a while, these two soul fragments gradually began to fuse.
Roy’s eyes flickered. Of course, he could tell that these two soul fragments had difficulty fusing in the beginning because they had been separated for too long. This undoubtedly confirmed Roy’s guess: it was not good to separate soul fragments for too long, especially those used for clones. Once they developed self-awareness over time, it would probably be even more difficult to fuse them.
After he waited quietly for a while, the two soul fragments finally fused together, turning into an even larger black ball of light.
“Demons are still demons!” Roy suddenly said to Dante, who was paying attention to what was happening, “Even if your father, Sparda, is regarded as the savior of this world by humans, his soul is still an ‘evil soul’. This won’t change no matter what.”
“…” Dante was speechless and could only change the topic. “Why do you want to find the old man?”
“What? Do you think I’m like those demons who want to hunt down traitors?” Roy looked at Dante. “Don’t worry. I’m not that bored. I want to find Sparda because there are some things that maybe only he knows!”
Yes, although he did not have much hope in the beginning, since Sareth had completed the missions Roy gave him and successfully summoned Roy into this world, he naturally did not want to come in vain.
There were a total of seven inscriptions of the Demon Bible, and Roy now had four. The first one was the rubbing he had obtained from Goddess Calypso in the Pirates of the Caribbean world. Calypso had said that this rubbing came from a high-rank flame demon that she had eliminated. Roy had never seen this demon, so he naturally had no way of investigating it.
The second and third ones were obtained from Kha-Beleth. Unfortunately, Roy did not know that Kha-Beleth had Demon Bible steles and had only obtained them from his treasury after he killed him, so there was no way to ask him about the specific origins of these two Demon Bible steles.
Now, the fourth one was in Sareth’s hands, and he had not given it to Roy yet. Fortunately, the former owner of the stele, the Dark Knight Sparda, seemed to be alive still. This was the best news.
Since Sparda had the stone stele before, it meant that he might know some of its functions. In that case, would he know some other information about the steles? For example, what effect would collecting all the steles have? Which demons had the remaining steles? And so on…
This was Roy’s greatest purpose in coming to this world. He had finally encountered a living demon lord who had once held a stele, so he certainly wanted to understand as much as possible.
As for the second purpose, it was about Julia. Roy still remembered that Julia had mentioned to him that Samael had brought her back to a certain world and made her a fallen angel, and this ‘certain world’ was very likely the Devil May Cry world!
In other words, this world was very likely Julia’s birthplace. Fallen angels were transformed from angels. But the problem was that from the moment Roy descended into this world, he felt that this world seemed to be strange, and he did not sense any angelic aura in this world! And if there were no angels, it meant that there was no Heaven in this world. So if the demons here wanted to promote to demon lord, how could they complete the promotion ritual?
