Chapter Ninety-Two: Lucia

"Long time no see, Dante."

Lucia, who walked into the room, was still holding Dante's clothes in her hand, and Dante, who noticed this, looked down at herself.

Sure enough, I didn't have any clothes on!

Dante scratched his head with a smirk, took his own initiative to step forward, took his clothes from Lucia's hand, and then put them on generously in front of the other party, and finally did not forget to use the hairspray hand he had stolen from his brother Virgil to try to push his bangs up.

However, when Dante's right hand touched his hair, he found that his hair, which had grown almost to his shoulders, seemed to be much shorter, and immediately asked:

"Lucia, you cut my hair?"

Lucia stretched out her hands to straighten Dante's collar like a wife, and said, "Dante, you are still the same, since I left the Devil May Cry Office, you have not been kempt, not only do you not take care of your hair, but you also don't shave your beard. Well, that's decent. ”

"Well, thank you."

Dante watched Lucia finish arranging her collar and touched her chin with her hand, and sure enough, the stubble was shaved clean.

Lucia also took this opportunity to ask Dante to look in the mirror in the bedroom, and the latter looked in the mirror, which had been dressed up, and couldn't help laughing:

"Ha, this is my most handsome appearance!"

Dante then turned to look at Lucia and said with a smile, "Thank you for saving me." ”

Lucia looked at Dante tenderly and said, "Don't thank me, I just did what I had in mind." ”

However, only a second later, Dante, who had been a little frivolous before, suddenly straightened his face, showed a serious expression, and asked Lucia:

"Why did you leave in the first place?"

Lucia seemed to have known that Dante would ask this question, and opened her mouth to reply, "I just feel like I have to leave." ”

As she spoke, Lucia turned and walked out the door.

Looking at Lucia's back, Dante could feel that whether it was the brief contact just now, or Lucia's previous action of risking her life to save her, it showed that even after many years, Lucia still had feelings for herself.

So, why did she choose to leave in the first place?

Thinking of this, Dante immediately chased out, stretched out his right hand to Lucia, who had just walked out of the bedroom door, put his arm on her shoulder, and said loudly:

"Lucia, don't go, I love ...... Alas? ”

Dante, who stepped out of the door, saw three acquaintances sitting on chairs in the hall, looking at him with the eyes of a play.

"Oh, Dante, I knew you must have hidden a woman on Duma."

Tracey was the first to speak.

"Oh, Dante, why don't you tell us about Lucia? Is there any hidden secret? ”

Letty then spoke.

"Oh, my brother, you've wasted another chance to possibly defeat me."

Virgil looked at Dante and Lucia and spoke.

Under the gaze of everyone, Dante reluctantly withdrew his right hand on Lucia's shoulder, and then introduced Lucia to the three with a straight face:

"Tracy, just after you left the Devil May Cry Office last time, I went to Duma Island, and then I met Lucia."

"At that time?"

Tracey seemed to remember something: "Dante, I remember that you seem to have gone to some mysterious space, and you almost couldn't come back. ”

"But, I'm back."

Dante continued, "Not only me, but even my father, Sparta, the magic swordsman, he went there and came back, and I found the clues that my father left back then. ”

"Our father?"

Virgil suddenly stood up and asked Dante, "Where is there a clue left by his father?" ”

"That's right, but it's just an exit and nothing else."

Dante continued: "Virgil, I know that you have always wanted to find your father. ”

"If my father hadn't left, my mother wouldn't have died."

Virgil's voice was a little agitated.

Back then, when Dante and Virgil were still children, their father, the swordsman Sparta, suddenly disappeared, leaving only his mother EVA, but he was chased and killed by demons, and EVA died on the spot to protect the two brothers.

This experience has become an eternal pain in Virgil's heart, and it still leaves a shadow to this day. So he really wanted to find his missing father and then questioned him why he left.

"I'm amazed that I think the same thing as you on this point!"

Dante returned to his usual coquettish state and said to Virgil, "Of course, if you are willing to throw in the towel, I can tell you some clues about our father." ”

Virgil glanced at Dante, snorted disdainfully, and said, "Dante, I am your brother, and I am smarter than you." I've already found the clue! ”

"Okay."

Since the clue is no longer a secret, Dante had no choice but to wave his hand and say:

"Actually, since the last battle, I've always had a question, Sidi is a demon king who is not interested in the human world, so why did she suddenly rush here and plant a demon tree? It feels very strange. ”

"Not only that, but Sidi showed obvious reluctance during our previous fight with Glogs, indicating that she didn't want to see us die, but this is simply incredible!"

Virgil then added: "Sidi is also a demon after all, arrogant and selfish, but also sinister and cunning, so even if Sidi has a good relationship with our father, he has nothing to do with us. According to common sense, Sidi would never care if we lived or died. ”

"Ah, great detectives, you're doing a good job."

After Tracey interjected, Letty continued:

"So what do these represent?"

Even Lucia, who was standing next to Dante, showed a deferential expression, indicating that she was also very interested in it.

Under the gaze of the women, Dante coquettishly fiddled with his hair and continued, "This means that Sidi must have accepted the commission of some acquaintance, so she does not want us to die." ”

Virgil continued: "And among the demons, the only one who doesn't want our brothers to die is our missing old father. ”

Dante and Virgil then said, "Sidi must know the whereabouts of Sparta!" ”

At this time, Lucia asked, "Dante, what is the matter with Grogess?" Sidi looked as if he was still at his orders. ”

"Gloggs? Hum! ”

Dante spoke: "Actually, I thought it was strange as early as in the previous battle, and now that I think about it, I should be sure that Grogus is not a demon, he is another creature." ”

Speaking of this, Dante paused, thinking back to what Sidi had said to himself before, and then spoke: "Sidi once mentioned to me that there is an ancient force in the universe that has risen, and I suspect that Grogers is a member of the ancient force. Sidi invaded the human world, not because she wanted to, but because she chose to side with Gloggs. ”

Virgil also reasoned: "In that case, then Sidi planted the Hell Demon Tree, I'm afraid not for herself, but for Gloggs. ”

At this time, Tracey interjected again, "Wait, if that's the case, doesn't that mean that the Hell Fruit is for Glogess!" But he is invincible now, and even your true demon form cannot defeat him. ”

Tracey's words, not only Letty, but even Lucia nodded her head, they were all experienced in that battle, and they witnessed Dante and Virgil join forces to perform the strongest True-Demon form, and they couldn't do any damage to Grogess.

If it weren't for Lucia's timely rescue, I'm afraid they would all have been killed.

However, Dante, after glancing at Virgil, spoke:

"No, Gloggs is not invincible! If we only talk about the level of strength, our True-Demon form is definitely stronger than Groggs, but the problem is that Gloggs's body is problematic, not like an entity, but like some kind of phantom. ”

Dante's words were echoed by everyone present, who had fought with Gloggs, and naturally felt this to some extent.

"That is, as long as we find a way to harm Groggs' body, then he has nothing to fear......"

As he spoke, Dante noticed the towering demon tree not far away through the window of the room, and suddenly realized something.

Before Dante could speak, Virgil said, "Dante, you have been in a coma for two days. After this period of growth, the demon tree is about to condense its fruits, and there is not much time left for us. ”

"Well, it seems that we must hurry up, if we can't kill Gloggs, at least we must cut down the big tree, and we must not let Gloggs eat the fruit, otherwise we really can't defeat him......"

Dante was halfway through his sentence when he suddenly paused, then turned to look at his brother Virgil and asked:

"Virgil, how long did you say time had passed?"

Virgil said again: "Two days. ”

As if to cooperate with Virgil's words, in the village not far from the base of the tree, there was a violent explosion, so loud that even everyone in the room could feel the shock.

Dante turned his head to look at the site of the explosion, and with an expression that he had already known, he said to Virgil:

"Virgil, your precious son is here."

Virgil then stood up and said to Dante, "Then we should also go, I don't want Nero to take the lead." ”

"That's right!"

As he spoke, Dante, Tracey, and Letty took out their weapons and prepared to set off for a disgrace.

However, when Lucia heard the word "son", she looked at Dante with strange eyes.

"What's wrong, Lucia?"

Dante noticed this gaze and couldn't help but look back and ask.

"Nothing."

Lucia shook her head, pulled out the double dagger from her waist, and said with a smile, "It's time for us to go." ”

On the other side, Nicole's van has already rushed into the village, but unfortunately she can't move on, because there are powerful demons here who have set up enchantments and must defeat them!

"It's our turn!"

Nero laughed and jumped out of the van.
