V, who had already walked to Urizen's side, was already at the end of his rope, and cracks had appeared all over his skin. He did not have much magic power left, and he had almost used up all of it after fighting demons along the way. Without magic power, his life might end here, so even if Roy had not said anything, he would have sought an opportunity to kill Urizen with his own hands and then merge with Urizen to restore his original identity as Vergil.
But when he heard Roy's words, he could not help but stop and turn around in surprise.
Dante was also stunned and said in disbelief, "W-what did you say? Find our father, Sparda?! Is … is this possible? "
"Why is it not possible?" Roy asked.
Dante stretched out his hand and gestured, but he did not know where to start. In the end, he could only say, "In fact, over the years, both Vergil and I have tried to find Father's whereabouts, but there has been no news. You're … a demon from the outside world. What right do you have to say that you can find him?"
Roy shook his head. "Like Sareth, you're all half-demons. But it seems that you've lived in the human world for too long, so you don't know much about demons or your father."
Frost power condensed under Roy's feet, and an enormous frozen throne gradually formed on the spot. Roy removed his True Name Liberation state, shrunk a lot, and sat on the throne. Julia and Benia walked over and sat on the left and right sides of the throne. After doing this, Roy looked down at Dante and slowly said, "Have you ever thought about why the weapons Sparda left you still have powerful magic power left in them after so many years of use?"
"Huh? Isn't this normal? "Dante was dumbfounded and spread his hands.
"If it's a weapon that's infused with magic power alone, of course it's abnormal!" Roy said. "Just like the weapon I gave Sareth, I infused my power into it. But after he used it, there's not much of my power left in it."
Dante looked at Sareth and saw him nod. He took out Executioner and showed it to Dante. "After the plague storm, Foster Father's power was almost gone."
Dante did not know much about the plague storm, but Nero and V knew. They nodded at Dante, indicating that it was true.
"Okay!" Dante spread his hands. "What are you trying to say?"
Roy pointed at the sword on Dante's back. "Weapons that are infused with magic power can only be regarded as disposable items. However, demons have a way to make the magic power in their weapons last for a long time. Even if it's exhausted, it can slowly recover. This method is soul weapons! Demons can split their souls into smaller fragments and then use the soul fragments to forge weapons. In the weapons forged this way, the soul fragments are the energy cores, so they can continuously produce magic power. Your father, Sparda, is also a demon, so of course he would use this method … "
Dante finally understood. He took out the demon sword and held it in his hand, sizing it up in disbelief. "You mean, there are soul fragments of the old man in Rebellion and Yamato?"
"Yes!" Roy nodded. "Under normal circumstances, the forger and descendants with the forger's bloodline can use this kind of soul weapon. Because you have the demon blood of Sparda flowing in your bodies, you can resonate with the soul fragments in the weapon and exert the greatest power of the weapon. Others can't do this."
As he spoke, Roy opened his palm, and the demon sword in Dante's hand immediately flew into his palm under Roy's Psychokinesis. Caught off guard, Dante hurriedly rushed forward to snatch back his sword, but Roy grinned sinisterly. "Don't worry. If I wanted to snatch it, I wouldn't have waited until now!"
"Uh …" Dante could only stop.
Demon Sword Dante was held by an invisible force in Roy's palm and slowly rotated. Roy said, "If I remember correctly, Sparda forged a total of three weapons, right?"
"That's right!" Dante nodded. "My Blade of Rebellion, Vergil's Yamato, and the Blade of Strength that was used to seal the Demon World Tower's passage, Teminig. But after the Blade of Strength fused with the necklace left behind by Mother, it became the Blade of Sparda. This is the sword that the old man used back then."
"Now your demon sword Dante is equivalent to the product of the fusion of the Blade of Sparda and the Blade of Rebellion!" Roy rotated the sword and observed it. "It is precisely because there are soul fragments of the same origin that the two swords can fuse together. Now, this demon sword Dante has two soul fragments of Sparda. This is also why this demon sword is stronger than the Blade of Rebellion you used."
"Is that so?" Dante said in enlightenment.
Nero was also listening by the side. He suddenly reacted and said, "You mean, since Rebellion and the Sword of Sparda can fuse, then Yamato can also fuse?"
"That's right!" Roy looked at Nero approvingly and nodded. "I believe you've seen what the consequences of an incomplete soul will be. Urizen, who is being suppressed over there, is an example …"
Dante and Nero turned their heads and saw V stepping on Urizen's chest. Urizen was lying on the ground, and all the bones in his body were broken. His lower body was still pressed down by heavy meteor fragments, and he could not even move. He was already on the verge of death.
He was indeed an example …
"Your father's name is Sparda. Even in the Abyss, there are legends about him!" Roy said. "Although it's been a long time, it's undeniable that he's definitely an extremely powerful demon lord. Perhaps … even my strength might not be comparable to his. Have you ever thought about it? Since he could seal his master, Mundus, why couldn't he even protect his family and end up in a situation where there's no news of him?"
"I see …" Dante said thoughtfully. "In that case, when the old man forged his Sword of Sparda, he had already split his soul fragment once. Then, because he left the weapon for me and Vergil, he split it twice. This way, the loss of his soul is more serious …"
"The loss of the soul won't have any effects in a short period of time, but it will indeed cause magic power to decline …" Roy said. "You should be glad that Sparda placed his soul fragment in a dead object like a weapon. This is already considered good. At least, dead objects won't have consciousness, thus causing the soul fragment to have an independent personality. If such a soul fragment is taken out, it might lead us to Sparda himself because of its' inclination '. If Sparda had used his soul fragment to create a clone, I'm afraid even I wouldn't have been able to do anything after so many years!"
"So, you want to fuse Demon Sword Dante and Yamato, take out the old man's soul fragment, and then find him through the soul fragment?" Dante's expression was complicated.
"Yes!" Roy looked at Dante's expression and said playfully, "Why? Don't you want to see your father again? "
"I don't know …" Dante sighed. "When I was young, I might have wanted to see him again, but after so many years, this thought seems to have faded … Because I don't know what to say when I see him …"
Roy smiled and gently threw Demon Sword Dante back to Dante. Dante grabbed it and put it back behind him. Roy looked in V's direction. "You heard it, right? Maybe you can't represent Vergil, so it's better to fuse before making a decision! "
"Indeed …" V looked at Urizen, who was vomiting blood on the ground, and said to him, "Our branches and tendrils are connected, and our roots are intertwined … Without me, you become reckless and brainless. Without you, I become extremely weak. Admit it, Urizen. You and I are one!"
"Yes … Yes, I hate it!" Urizen looked at V and said intermittently, "I … I should have chosen to kill you and then fuse with you. That way, it would have represented the victory of the demonic side, and I would have been able to obtain greater power …"
"But now, I'm the one who killed you!" As V spoke, he raised the cane in his hand and used the sharp tip of the cane to stab into the eye on Urizen's chest. "This represents the victory of the human side …"
The demon eye on Urizen's chest spewed out a large amount of filthy blood again, staining V's body and face. But no matter how hard he struggled, it was useless. As he became more and more powerless, a burst of light began to appear, enveloping both Urizen and V.
The light grew brighter and brighter until it became incomparably dazzling. Dante, Nero, and the others could not help but cover their eyes.
After the light disappeared, both Urizen and V disappeared. Replacing them was the back of a tall man standing in place.
This man had white hair the same color as Dante's, but it was not as sloppy as Dante's. Instead, it was short and neat. He was wearing a blue coat, and the hem of the coat swayed gently in the breeze. In his left hand was a samurai sword with a long white handle and a simple and smooth blade.
"Vergil …" Dante could not help but whisper when he saw this back.
"Dante …" Vergil slowly turned around and looked at Dante and then at Roy.
"Damn it. It's really him …" Nero gritted his teeth and stared at Vergil. He felt a dull pain in his right wrist.
Vergil was the culprit who had taken away his demon right wrist. Although Nero already knew V's identity, it did not mean that he had forgiven Vergil. So when he saw that Vergil, the culprit, had really returned, he held Crimson Queen behind him and wanted to rush toward Vergil.
But at this moment, Dante stretched out his hand to stop him. "Wait! Nero! "
"Dante! Why are you stopping me? "Nero roared." This bastard took away my right hand. I have to take revenge! "
"You can't attack him!" Dante said.
"Why?" Nero was puzzled.
"We'll talk later!" Dante pressed down hard on Nero and made him stop for the time being. Then he looked at Vergil. "Vergil, you know what I think, right?"
"Dante … My brother …" A smile appeared on Vergil's cold face. "Actually, even I didn't expect that I would have the same thoughts as you one day …"
"Then what are you waiting for?" Dante took out the demon sword on his back, and Vergil squatted down slightly and held the hilt of Yamato.
Seeing this, Nero was in disbelief. Of course, he knew the grudge between Dante and Vergil, but why did these two brothers want to kill each other when they met?!
After a moment of silence, Dante and Vergil suddenly erupted with tremendous speed and charged at each other.
Just when Nero thought that the two of them were about to fight, the situation suddenly took a sharp turn. When Dante and Vergil charged to the middle, they suddenly turned at the same time. Dante held his demon sword, and Vergil held his Yamato. The two of them stood side by side and stabbed at Roy, who was sitting on the throne!
