Indeed, Sareth did not think of escaping but temporarily stayed in Nero's house.
Firstly, he knew that he could not defeat Dante and the others, and if he escaped, he might be caught again. Secondly, after confirming Dante and Nero's identities as half-demons, he subconsciously recognized them as the same kind.
With Nero and the others, the sense of alienation that Sareth felt after entering the human world had disappeared a lot. Sareth was only a child, and of course he did not like to be alone. Now that he had someone to communicate with, he was naturally willing to communicate.
Nero's garage was also Nico's workshop, and there were many strange things in it that Sareth found strange. Out of curiosity, Sareth kept asking Nico questions, and Nico patiently answered him. She even showed him the uses of some tools, and sometimes let him try them himself.
If Nico was like a big sister who occasionally played pranks, then Kyrie was the complete opposite. She was a very gentle and caring woman. She treated Sareth like she treated other adopted orphans. Although she did not speak much, Sareth saw Cassandra's figure in her.
In addition, there were also Trish and Lady. Although they did not communicate much with Sareth, they always maintained a smile. With these women around, Sareth's psychological defenses naturally dropped again and again.
In the next two days, after seeing that Sareth did not intend to escape, Dante and Nero discussed and returned Sareth's weapons to him.
This matter won Sareth's favor, and he finally decided not to pursue the matter of Dante and Nero working together to beat him up.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Dante and Nero asked their doubts at the dining table during the dinner party.
"Sareth, I've always been curious. Where did you come from?" Dante held his knife and fork and ate his steak while pretending to be casual. "You seem to have been investigating the demon swordsman Sparda. Is there something you need to do?"
Hearing this question, Silas, who was wolfing down his food, stopped abruptly.
But just as the atmosphere was about to become stiff, Kyrie, who was sitting next to Sareth, reached out and touched his hair. She said softly, "Don't worry. We're just curious. Moreover, if you say it, we might be able to help."
"Yeah!" Lady also said at the right time, "I don't dare to say anything else, but when it comes to matters regarding Sparda, we have quite a say."
Sareth looked left and right and found that everyone was staring at him. He could not help but sigh heavily.
In fact, he was not a fool. Of course, he understood why Dante and the others brought him back. Although these people were very good to him, he did not forget the mission Roy gave him.
However … he knew that he knew too little about the human world. If he wanted to find the history of Sparta and the Demon Bible, he did not know how long it would take him to find it alone. So after thinking about it, he decided to tell them and ask for help.
Thus, he lowered his head and started eating again. As he ate, he said, "What I'm looking for is actually a stone tablet called the Demon Bible. This is my mission."
"Demon Bible?" After hearing this term, Dante and Nero were confused again. In fact, many of the nouns that Sareth said confused them … Dante could not help but ask, "What is that?"
"It's … something like a stone stele!" Sareth recalled the sample that Roy had shown him and gestured to describe it. "It looks a little ancient, and there are demon characters engraved on it. It's been too long, and the characters are a little hard to recognize."
"What's … the use of this thing?" Nero asked with a frown.
"Actually, I don't know what it's used for …" Sareth said. "I just want to find it. It's said that a demon lord named Sparda in this world took this thing away. I wanted to find it in the museum to see if there were any records of this thing …"
Subconsciously, everyone looked at Dante. He was Sparda's son. If Sparda had left something behind, Dante should know. But unfortunately, Dante frowned and thought for a long time, but he could not think of such a thing.
In fact, speaking of which, Dante … or even his brother Vergil, had blurry memories of his father. He could not even remember what his father looked like.
It could not be helped. When Dante was six, his family had been attacked by demons, and his mother had died as a result. His house had also been burned down, and the family portrait that had always been hanging in his house had also been burned down at that time. The painting had his father's human appearance, but now that decades had passed, he did not remember much.
As for the relics left behind by his father, Dante only recognized the sword of Rebellion that he was holding and his brother Vergil's Yamato. Yamato was now in Nero's demon right wrist, and Rebellion was on Dante. Other than that, there were no other things left behind by his father, Sparda.
Dante could not help but say, "Sareth, are you mistaken? I've never heard of Sparda having something like the Demon Bible … "
"No, there must be!" Sareth shook his head. "Foster Father won't be wrong. If he says there is, there must be!"
Nero put down the fork in his hand in puzzlement. "Sareth, you've mentioned the word 'foster father' twice. Who is this person? You seem to trust him a lot … "
"Of course! It was Foster Father who adopted me! " Sareth said matter-of-factly as he counted with his fingers. "And Mother Cassandra, Mother Julia, and Mother Benia … Hmm, Mother Benia is too strict with me. I'm a little afraid of her, but she's actually very good to me …"
This child has three mothers? This thought popped up in Dante's mind. He suddenly envied Sareth's so-called foster father! This is a winner in life!
"Sareth, you don't seem to be from this world. Does that mean your foster father isn't either?" Trish suddenly asked.
"Yes, of course not!" Sareth nodded. "I'm from the Abyss. Foster Father and the others can't come for the time being, so they let me come first …"
"Abyss? What's this place? "Trish, Lady, and the others looked at each other in confusion.
"The Abyss is the Abyss!" Sareth did not know how to describe it. He gestured and described the appearance of Frostfire City. "It's covered in snow all year round, and the temperature is very low and cold. Only Frostfire City, which Foster Father built, is slightly warmer because there's an underground volcano there …" Sareth did not know how to describe it.
Hearing Sareth's description, Dante, Nero, and the others listened quietly. They were actually quite curious about the world Sareth lived in.
"What I like the most is riding on Fat Tiger's back to play!" The more Sareth spoke, the more excited he became. "Fat Tiger runs very fast, and his back is big and spacious …"
Nico interrupted him curiously. "Who is Fat Tiger?"
"Fat Tiger is a big dog!" Sareth replied. "A very, very big dog! As big as a mountain! "
Nico and the others laughed when they heard this. They felt that Sareth was really exaggerated. How could there be such a big dog …
"But Fat Tiger isn't the biggest!" Sareth continued. "The biggest is Rafaro, but that guy is too cunning. He's always flying in the sky. I want him to fly with me, but he's unwilling and always finds excuses to push me away …"
"Who is Rafaro?" Nico asked.
"Rafaro is a dragon!" Sareth said in a very normal tone. "The Sky Dragon of Osiris. That's what everyone calls him."
Dragon?!
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other again and exchanged glances. It seems like I guessed right. This is really another world. There are no creatures like dragons in this world …
Ever since Sareth was sensible, he had come into contact with the things of Frostfire City, so these things could not be more normal in his eyes. Therefore, when he spoke, he spoke in a very normal tone. But this was the strange thing. Because of their preconceived notions, although Dante and the others found it fresh after hearing Sareth's story, they did not think anything else. They subconsciously treated the foster father and Cassandra's mother that Sareth mentioned as humans from another world, and they also treated the big dog that Sareth mentioned as a real dog …
For a time, there was a happy and harmonious atmosphere at the dining table. Everyone smiled as they listened to Sareth show off his' hometown ', and they even felt that Sareth's foster father was really not bad. Not every human would adopt a half-demon child …
In fact, their identities as half-demons made it very difficult for Dante and Nero to integrate into the human community of this world. Dante was fine, but Nero had the deepest experience. His demon right arm often troubled him, and he did not even dare to show his right hand in front of humans. Every time he was about to go out, he would hang his arm and wrap it in bandages, pretending to be injured so that others would not see his right hand and cause panic.
Although Sareth was now in human form, when half-demons were emotional, their demon side would usually appear. Dante and the others felt that Sareth's foster father must have seen it before. Under such circumstances, not only did he not dislike Sareth, but he even adopted him. If this was not a good person, then what was?
Therefore, when Dante saw Sareth talking about his foster father with a look of worship and admiration, he felt a little envious …
After Sareth spoke for a while and calmed down, Lady asked, "So, did your foster father tell you about the Demon Bible steles?"
"Yes, there seem to be several of them!" Sareth nodded. "Foster Father said that Sparda might have one, so I've been looking for clues about it."
"There shouldn't be, right?" Trish looked at Dante and asked in confusion. "If Sparda really has such a thing, why haven't we heard of it?"
"If Foster Father says there is, then there definitely is!" Sareth retorted. "Foster Father said that Sparda brought it from the Abyss!"
"Wait a minute!" Dante finally realized that something was wrong. "What did you just say? Sparda brought it from the Abyss? No way. Sparda has been to your world? "
"Hmm … you can't say that …" Sareth pondered over the words. "It's not that Sparda has been to our world, but that Sparda is from the Abyss …"
"Huh?!" Everyone was stunned. Where did this come from?!
Trish was dumbfounded. "That's impossible! Sparda is a demon of the Demon World. How could he have come from your world?! "
"Huh? Didn't I say that just now? " Sareth scratched his head. "The Abyss is the world of demons. Foster Father said that the Abyss is the homeland of demons …"
With a puff, Dante and Nero spat out all the food they were chewing. This turn directly hurt their waists.
Trish stood up angrily, slammed the table, and shouted, "Brat, what nonsense are you talking about?! The Demon World is clearly the homeland of demons, and I'm a demon. How can I not know where I came from?! "
Seeing Trish angry, Sareth was a little dumbfounded. "But … but Foster Father said that the Demon World here is actually called the Purgatory Space, and it's just an alternate space that wraps around the main world. This alternate space is only an outpost of demons. All demons actually came from the Abyss in the beginning …"
This time, even Trish was dumbfounded. Everyone stared blankly at Sareth, unable to digest what he said.
Dante was the first to react. He had vaguely felt that something was wrong just now. At this moment, a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, and he subconsciously asked, "You … Sareth, your foster father is a demon?!"
"That's right!" Sareth nodded matter-of-factly. "Moreover, Foster Father is a very, very powerful demon lord! The entire Frostfire City is his territory! "
Hearing this, a clap of thunder exploded in everyone's minds.
A … demon lord?! A demon lord like Sparda?!
Nico asked Sareth in a trembling voice. "Then … then what about your Mother Cassandra and the others that you mentioned earlier …"
Sareth counted with his fingers solemnly. "Mother Cassandra? She's a lich. As for Mother Julia, she's a fallen angel. Mother Benia is a pure demon, but she's a succubus … "
Listening to Sareth recount his shocking family tree, everyone at the dining table was shocked speechless! Because they found that the situation did not seem to be as harmonious and friendly as they had imagined …
There was only one thought in their minds now: Things … are serious!!
