The journey was uneventful, filled only with fighting and killing. They first killed several demons who had come to this world, and then had several family feuds with Virgil.
The young Nero also matured quickly in this process. After all, with Dante who seemed unreliable but was actually very dependable, and with the exaggerated time ratio in the game, it was not particularly difficult for him to achieve a breakthrough on his own.
In the process, Nero gradually understood why Bronya said her father loved pursuing power. It was because he practically had Power on his lips all the time.
"I need Pava!"
"I need more Pava!!"
"Power!!!"
However, Nero couldn't understand why his father was so obsessed with power.
Nero also asked Bronya about this question.
"why?"
Bronya fell into deep thought upon hearing this question, because there were detailed analyses of why Virgil liked power, and some players even lurked around Virgil in real mode to ask him why he needed power.
It's simply that his childhood experiences and upbringing have made him desperately need the strength to achieve his goals.
But since it was a guest asking the question, and one of the main characters from Devil May Cry at that, she naturally had to give a comprehensive answer.
However, just as she was about to speak, Bronya received a message from Liu Yuan, and she changed her mind.
"Because he didn't learn the double jump."
"what?"
Nero wondered if he had misheard. His own father actually craved power so desperately because of this? And what, a double jump?
At this moment, Bronya explained very seriously: "That's right, in the future you will even be able to learn the triple jump, but your father never learned the double jump. Because of this, he kept pursuing power and eventually became immersed in power."
Upon hearing the truth, Nero exclaimed that it was impossible. However, after learning about the terrifying ability of double jump, he fell into deep thought.
Bronya added, "According to intelligence, a double jump competition was also held in Devil May Cry, and there was only one person who didn't participate in that competition."
Nero realized that although it was a ridiculous reason, from a man's perspective, if he didn't have such a simple skill, he might have gone astray and kept pursuing power, thus becoming trapped in power.
Now that he knew the truth, he decided to work hard in the game to learn the double jump, and even the triple and quadruple jumps. If his father couldn't learn the double jump, then he would master the even stronger triple and quadruple jumps so that his father could be proud of him.
Nero entered the game once again. The story of Devil May Cry is quite long, and it took Nero a full week to perfectly complete it in True Mode. Upon finishing the game, feeling the power of his Devil Trigger transformation, Nero showed no smugness, but instead, a rare expression of deep thought appeared on his face.
"They went to save the world, leaving me behind..."
After completing the final storyline, Dante and Virgil, the two venerable figures, went to Hell. Only he remained on Earth.
During the game, he discovered something terrifying: the experience in the game world was more than 95% similar to his own world. This meant that in the future of his world, his father and uncle would leave Earth and go to Hell to do some things. Thinking about this, he felt somewhat unwilling.
Even after going through so many trials, his in-game family still treats him like a child? He refuses to accept it.
However, just as he was feeling unconvinced, Yuri sensed the emotions of the young man beside him and asked him with a smile.
"Excuse me, is there anything I can help you with?"
"I…"
Nero was about to speak, but looking at the bald man in front of him, he felt a sense of unease, as if his inner thoughts had been seen through, and this feeling was very unpleasant.
However, at that moment, Alicia looked over here.
"His name is Yuri, and some of his advice will be very useful to you."
Yuri made no move, but simply smiled at Nero.
Since it was the store manager's recommendation, he chose to believe it, because the most common sentence he had seen while browsing the TT forum these days was this.
"If you feel lost, go to your boss. Your boss is your guiding light, illuminating your future. If you have problems in life, go to Yuri."
"Yuri can solve all of life's problems."
Having considered this, Nero took a deep breath and then voiced his thoughts.
After hearing Nero's thoughts, Yuri pondered for a moment before speaking, "That's normal. In the eyes of elders, unless you can surpass them, you'll always be a child. However..."
At Yuri's prompting, Nero looked across the entire internet cafe. Although Yuri didn't say anything, he understood.
Yes, it's true that I'm still a child in front of my two elders. But now I have an opportunity, I have power. Unlike myself in the game, I can use the power of the internet cafe to fight.
All it takes is money to find an absolute powerhouse to resolve the demon crisis. With the demon crisis gone, they won't have to go to hell. They could even use this power to defeat their father and uncle, and then the demons will stop seeing them as children.
Besides that, he also had another dream: to show off his triple jump power in front of Virgil.
That's right! After playing Devil May Cry, without using any system rewards, he had already mastered the triple jump. In the game, his King's Power was severed by his father in the fifth installment's storyline.
But now, he has decided that if he sees his father again, he will definitely use the Yama Blade he obtained in the game to stab him hard and complete this family tradition.
Yes, he read TT's assessment of his family. After playing the entire game, he believed this tradition might be real. At least in the game, he and his father stabbed each other countless times, his uncle and father stabbed each other countless times, and he and his uncle had stabbed each other quite a few times as well.
Since his father was going to cut off his hand, it was reasonable and normal for him to stab him back, right?
Of course, while keeping the family tradition intact, he also ordered a large number of fifth-generation Virgil-style chairs from the machine-made equipment supplier.
Seeing how much his father enjoys the game, how could a son not prepare something for himself?
Chapter 472 The Family Legacy of Devil May Cry
Back in his own world, Nero began making meticulous preparations.
He first found a suitable battle location, then arranged the plastic chairs he bought from the machine gunners around it, and then happily posted a quest in the player shop.
Mission: Beat Virgil up.
Mission requirements: Do not kill Virgil; other requirements are optional.
Mission Reward: You can take a photo with Virgil sitting in a chair.
Nero also posted a photo of a chair, a specially made plastic chair for the Machine Gundam, which was even enchanted by the real god of the game world, Hoshiro. A chair that cannot be damaged by any force.
In fact, Nero felt that he could defeat his father on his own, but his father went further and further down the path of pursuing power, and even in the future he would sacrifice the life of a city dweller.
Although this hasn't happened yet, if we consider the scenario of one person dying and being slashed once, then if everyone in the internet cafe slashed Virgil once, they might end up owing hundreds of thousands of lives.
However, it's not a big problem. To prevent such a thing from happening in the future, Nero decided to let her lovely and kind father understand what power really is.
The pursuit of power is endless; power only has meaning when there is something to protect and a goal to protect.
On a vast plain, several plastic chairs formed a huge circle, with the largest plastic chair placed in the very center of the circle.
Original players didn't notice anything wrong with what Vergil did in Devil May Cry 5. It was so cool, so imposing.
Then one day, someone posted a screenshot of Virgil sitting there. Liu Yuan casually remarked, "This chair would look perfectly natural if it were one of those plastic chairs from a street food stall." Just then, a mod was added to the game, changing Virgil's final seat to a plastic one.
And Nero himself? He also found the joke quite interesting and decided to have his beloved father experience it firsthand, while also giving everyone in the internet cafe a laugh.
Nero himself had no idea that he had gradually transformed from that rebellious punk-style young man into a fun-loving person.
After all, having fun is contagious, and video game players are the most numerous type of people who enjoy having fun.
This quest was well-received by players upon its release. Unfortunately, it requires a high level of skill, and most ordinary customers in internet cafes are unable to directly confront Virgil. However, that's alright, there are plenty of skilled players in internet cafes.
Veteran players like Fujimaru Kaori, Natsuki Subaru, Namikaze Minato, and Tina are definitely there to join the fun. Even Higashiyama Kokoro, after learning about this world, brought her War Demon along, since it's a real world full of demons and demon hunters, and she came to watch the show.
Generally speaking, players who can't easily complete the game on true difficulty within five tries choose to watch the show. Although many people in internet cafes have obtained Devil May Cry game items, the vast majority of them have completed the game by using Tatsumi's mindless strategy.
Taking a driving test in the game Devil May Cry is fine, but in reality? Let's just watch the show.
With everyone gathered, summoning Vergil became a troublesome matter. Fortunately, there were many people there to watch the drama unfold, such as Senior Madoka.
Although her power was strictly limited, Virgil was too familiar with the power because he had played the game so much that Madoka could directly use Dimension Slash to cut a passage.
"Let me find it! This Pava! Found it! wryyyy!"
Amidst Xiaoyuan's excitement, a middle-aged man wearing a hood and dressed in tattered clothes appeared in everyone's sight. His body was on the verge of breaking, but Xiaoyuan casually restored it to normal.
"Where is this? What kind of power do you possess?"
Virgil felt the surge of power coursing through his body, his eyes wide with shock. The pink-haired girl before him was brimming with power, a power that filled him with dread.
"This is the invincible Power!!!"
Madoka-senpai started acting crazy, while Nero, opposite Virgil, introduced himself: "My name is Nero, and I am your son."
"My son?"
Virgil was completely bewildered. He had been inexplicably captured and placed in an inexplicable place, and suddenly he had an inexplicable son? However, the moment he saw Nero, the connection he felt with his Spartan bloodline forced him to believe Nero's words.
"Father, do you want to gain power?"
"Power? I want more power!"
This sentence struck Virgil to his core: he needed power. He needed it so much that he had forgotten why he needed it in the first place, but for him now, the pursuit of power was his only purpose.
"Father, please do it."
Nero led Virgil to a plastic chair resembling those found at a street food stall and introduced it to him: "Just sit here, and you can feel endless power, and even obtain power from people in various worlds, more power! In many worlds, power itself even exists."
"Pawa?"
Nero drew his Yamato as he spoke, while Pava, on the outside, was already prepared. Teasing Virgil? Pava was thrilled upon hearing this mission. Of course, she wasn't stupid; she wouldn't risk her life against someone she couldn't defeat. She dared to be so reckless because Madoka had assured her that she would protect her.
When Pava heard this, he thought, "Great! With a powerful figure backing me up, I'll participate in this mission."
Nero used the Yamato sword and reached into the void, then pulled, and Pava appeared right in the middle of Virgil and everyone else present.
Nero introduced it very seriously: "This is Parva!"
Power from the Chainsaw Man world: "That's right! It's me!"
More Pava?
A look of seriousness appeared on Virgil's face; he had a feeling that he had been tricked.
As Nero, Virgil, and Pava created this comical scene, the customers in the internet cafe all took out their cameras to record this wonderful moment from all angles.
Virgil sat on a white plastic chair as his son loudly introduced the Yamato as "Power." Virgil himself was confused and bewildered, and tried to draw his sword, but the Yamato wouldn't obey him.
It would be strange if he listened, because the Yamato sword Nero was using at this time was not a Spartan heirloom, but a reward from the game system. This reward could be used unconditionally if one had Spartan blood, and it didn't cost money.
However, the weapon itself belongs to the player, unlike in Devil May Cry 5 where Vergil could use it on his son.
While Virgil was still in a daze, Pava left. She sensed that Virgil was about to go berserk, and she was just there to watch the show, not to fight. She left the fighting to Denji.
Virgil is about to move. Even without Yamato, as the son of Sparta and Dante's brother, he possesses immense power.
Hiring some top players would easily cost tens of thousands of yuan, and with the Rebellion Blade, it would cost 100,000 per second—the effect would be devastating. But! Nero insists on using the Rebellion Blade because…
"you…"
