The war between Heaven and the Demon World has begun, but let's put this war aside for the time being and turn our attention to what happened earlier.
After being sent to the spatial channel, Dante, Vergil, Nero, and Sareth's first stop was Heaven. Because they had set off early, Heaven's ambush circle against the Demon World had yet to be deployed, so they did not encounter the angels immediately after entering the spatial channel, allowing the four half-demons to sneak in quietly.
The Heaven of the Demoness Angel May Cry world was also in the Purgatory Space. But unlike the Demon World of the Devil May Cry world, the Heaven here did not cover the entire Purgatory Space. The number of angels could never compare to that of demons, so the requirement for living space was smaller. The Purgatory Space here was also enormous, but other than a portion occupied by Heaven, the rest of the Purgatory Space actually reflected the human world!
This was really a wonderful scene. In the entire Purgatory Space, the streets and buildings of the human world were all near the ground. These sceneries were like reflections in a mirror, completely reproducing the scenes of the human world. The difference was that only the static objects in these sceneries looked solid, but the people and things that were moving looked very illusory, like light and shadow.
Dante and the others stared at this scene in astonishment, feeling a little unable to recover.
"They don't seem to be able to detect us …" Sareth said. He was currently standing on a wide street. When a human light and shadow walked toward him, it passed through his body. The illusory light and shadow swayed, but the figure did not notice anything at all and just walked forward.
Dante and Nero nodded. They also discovered this situation. This reflection of the human world was actually because the Purgatory Space they were in was on the same spatial coordinates as the human world, but it was not in the same space.
In fact, not only was it like this in the Demoness Angel May Cry world, but it was also the same in the Devil May Cry world. The Purgatory Space and the main human material world also overlapped. If one randomly chose a location in the Purgatory Space to enter the main world, the location they might appear in would be a location in the human world. But in the Devil May Cry world, this overlapping phenomenon was very rare. Due to the expansion of the Demon World and the wanton activities of demons in the Purgatory Space, this reflection phenomenon had long been destroyed.
Ever since Vergil arrived, he had not said a word and had been deep in thought. At this moment, he suddenly pulled out Yamato and cut a vending machine on the side of the road in half.
What he cut was the scene reflected in the Purgatory World. But in the real human world, a neat cut appeared on the vending machine at the same spot and slowly collapsed. The people on the street were shocked by this sudden scene. The humanoid figures looked a little panicked. But when they found that there seemed to be nothing, their curiosity was aroused. They surrounded the cracked vending machine and discussed why it suddenly broke.
"Static objects. The reflection phenomenon is perfect!" Vergil said as he slashed at one of the human figures. When he found that his saber had passed through the figure and did not cause any harm, he continued, "But moving objects don't seem to be affected much."
Dante said to Vergil unhappily, "Hey, Vergil! What do you want to do? Don't forget that your Yamato can cut through space. What if you really killed that person just now? I can understand that you want to study this reflection, but your actions are too dangerous! "
"Hmph!" Vergil snorted coldly. He ignored Dante and turned to leave.
Dante had a headache. He had already found the old man, so why was Vergil still so arrogant?
"Forget it!" Nero tried to smooth things over. "Have you forgotten? Osiris has extracted Sparda's soul fragment from Yamato. Now, Yamato should have lost the ability to cut through space. Vergil should know this, that's why he did that. He didn't mean any harm …"
"That's right. Ever since you found out that he's your father, you've been on his side!" Dante poked Nero's forehead with his finger and said angrily, "But why don't you go up and talk to him?"
"I … I don't know what to say …" Nero said dejectedly.
"It's awkward! Just go up and chat awkwardly! "Sareth suggested." Can't you just talk about the weather or something? As long as you start, can't you just talk about it? "
"Then … I'll try?" Nero said uncertainly.
Dante gave him a kick from behind and kicked the hesitant Nero forward. Seeing Nero stumbling behind Vergil and trying to talk to him, Dante couldn't help but sigh deeply.
Then he turned his head and stared at Sareth.
"Why are you looking at me?" Sareth finally could not help but speak first.
"I keep feeling that things are changing too quickly …" Dante said in a daze. "I remember that two weeks ago, we were still thinking about how to deal with Urizen. But in the blink of an eye, your foster father came. Not only did he come, but he also brought my old man back … Now, it suddenly turned into a war between Heaven and the Demon World. I feel like I can't keep up with this series of events …"
"It's normal because you're old!" Sareth dug his nose with his little finger and said casually, "Look at you. You have a big beard. It's normal for you not to keep up with the rhythm."
If it were in the past, Dante might have quarreled with Sareth, but now he sighed. "Yes, I'm also thinking about it. After doing this, I might really retire."
Sareth looked up at him and found that Dante's expression was unprecedentedly serious, so he did not know how to respond for a moment.
The four of them walked silently on the street. Dante and Sareth looked at each other silently, and so did Vergil and Nero in front of them. In fact, both Vergil and Nero had a lot to say to each other, but the problem was that neither of them knew how to start. They could not even start the awkward conversation that Sareth had suggested …
After this strange atmosphere lasted for a while, Sareth suddenly slapped his forehead. "I say, what's the use of wandering aimlessly like this? Foster Father asked us to find that guy named Rodin! "
"But we don't know where that guy is …" Nero turned around and said. "Your foster father, Osiris, only gave us the name 'Hell's Gate Bar', but we don't know where it is. How can we find it?"
"Yes!" Dante nodded. "What if it's not in this city?"
"I think we should enter the human world and ask around!" Vergil crossed his arms and finally found a topic to participate in. He said expressionlessly, "If we find that the bar isn't in this city, we can take human transportation there. The scenes reflected in the Purgatory Space can't help us move."
"Yes, that's right!" Dante agreed. "Moreover, after entering the human world, we might be able to find some intelligence dealers to obtain information. I'm quite familiar with this business."
"There's no time to lose. Let's go!" Sareth said. "Find a weak point in the space, and we can pass through."
Although he said that, in the process of searching for weak points in the space, everyone found that it was really not easy to find them.
The reason was simple. The Purgatory Space of this world was far stronger than that of the Devil May Cry world!
In the Purgatory Space of the Devil May Cry world, due to the existence of the Demon World, a large number of demons were constantly looking for opportunities to go to the human world. These demons' original intention was to hunt human souls, but because they did this too often, they continuously broke through the Purgatory Space barrier, causing the Purgatory Space of the Devil May Cry world to be riddled with holes. It had long become extremely fragile, so it was very easy to find weak points.
But the Demoness Angel world was different. The Purgatory Space barrier here had not been damaged …
The four of them transformed into their demon forms, spread their wings, and searched the city for a long time, but they could not find a weak point to break through. With this delay, almost a day passed.
After gathering again and reporting the situation, the four of them were a little discouraged.
"If only Yamato's ability was still there. I could have cut open space and passed through!" Dante said in annoyance. "Vergil, why don't you split a part of your soul and inject it into Yamato?"
"Idiot!" Vergil rolled his eyes at him. "Don't you know that different soul fragments have different effects on the effectiveness of weapons? Dad's soul fragment can give Yamato the ability to cut open space, but my soul fragment must have the same effect … "
"Then what should we do?" Dante spread his hands. "Can we only split up and try our luck in other cities?"
Everyone did not say anything. They knew very well that they did not have much time left. After Balder took away Mundus's soul, although they did not know what they were going to do, every time they delayed, the success rate of their plan would increase by one point.
Just as the four of them were considering whether to gather everyone's strength and forcefully break through the Purgatory Space barrier here, a crisp sound suddenly sounded from behind.
This sound sounds like … high heels?!
Everyone could not help but be puzzled. In fact, although the scenery of the human world was reflected in the Purgatory Space, the sounds of the human world could not be transmitted here. Most of the time, except for the voices of the four of them, it was very quiet here. Now that the sound of high heels suddenly appeared, it naturally sounded very abrupt.
With the sound of high heels, a black figure appeared from the corner of the street.
When he saw this figure, Dante could not help but straighten up, flick his white hair, and whistle. "Oh yeah, look what I found. It's actually a beauty?!"
