Chapter Eighteen, Devil May Cry 4 (Where the Dream Begins, the Last Moment—Part 1)(1/4)
Looking at the scaly blades wandering around him and the fire hell dogs flying towards him from afar,
Let's just call him Hell Hound. After all, if you use your brain like a cannonball, you won't survive for a long time.
After dodging a wave of flying heads, Angelo subconsciously raised his head and looked up.
I saw a huge red network structure emerging from the void, and then similar things appeared in all directions.
"Is it a barrier? It seems like someone wants to slow down my progress!"
Angelo shook his head impatiently and said in a low tone.
That's right, it was originally agreed, although there was no bet, but I was not happy to lose to my uncle like this.
As I was thinking, a demon that looked like a wasp appeared in front of me, but the wings on its back and its extremely ugly body looked more like a fly.
"Are you Angelo? It seems His Majesty the Pope is right. You took something that shouldn't belong to you!"
The fly-like demon fell to the ground, then returned to its human appearance, turned its back to Angelo, and whispered.
"Um?"
Seeing the other person's back turned to him and what he said, Angelo was very puzzled.
However, as the other party slowly turned around, Angelo finally knew where the other party was coming from. He sneered and asked:
"Oh? Things that shouldn't belong to me? Sorry, my mother seems to have said that every plant and tree here belongs to the gods you worship..."
After a pause, Angelo reacted as if he had a "sudden realization" and added:
"Ah...you should be the guy named Agnus, right? Shouldn't you? I heard Tracy say that you seem to be mute, you..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the furious Agonas:
"Shut up! You... you... you... you bastard, you are as hateful as that boy named Nero..."
Listening to the other party's intermittent words, Angelo sneered, and then said apologetically:
"Ah? I'm so sorry. It turns out to be a knot...stutter...ba, well, let me guess what you are doing here..."
Having said this, Angelo rolled his eyes around, then touched his chin, pretending to be thinking.
Seeing Angelo in this posture, Agnus first lowered his head to look at the notes in his hand, then angrily tore off one of the papers full of writing, and finally roared with all his strength:
"That's enough! You hateful guy, I'm here...this...here for the Yama Sword in your hand."
Having said this, Agnas took a deep breath, then showed a strange smile, and then became extremely pious and began to narrate:
"Human beings are very stupid creatures. They enjoy protection, happiness, and everything they can enjoy. Gradually, they forget that everything they enjoy is brought to them by gods...
…”
Seeing Agnus holding a bookcase, writing and drawing something, and giving a speech in a deep and selfless manner, Angelo couldn't help but be intrigued. After all, it was already late, and it was not too late.
You can wait and be more neat when you do it...
"However, what we have to do now is to remind them of the fear that they were once dominated by darkness. Only in this way will they welcome their new god with a grateful heart. But now this great plan has been ruined by your stupid
Guys stop..."
Having said this, a blazing white light suddenly emerged from Agnas's body. After turning into a devil's posture, he flew to the place where the sun shined, turned his back to the sun, and scolded in an accusing tone:
"Because you took something that shouldn't belong to you, which is the Yama Sword~, and now, as the only archangel of God's apostle, Archangel Agnus, I will use the sacred flame to
Let the evil spirits burn out!"
After saying that, a white light flashed across the wings behind Agnas, and then a "sword" flew out of the wings.
After circling around Agnus, it transformed into a sword and was held in his hand.
Now, Angelo finally realized that the other party was actually coming for the Yama Sword, and the reason why that guy went around in such a big circle, constantly posing and changing positions, was to achieve the so-called "angel"
"Judgment of the Devil", a method similar to a drama?
And he is the demon being judged?
Forget it, just think of it as a so-called drama performance!
Thinking in his mind, Angelo raised his middle finger to the sky, and then asked in a very disdainful tone:
"Didn't the Pope tell you? Even if you have the power of demons, what can you do? To "us", you are still humble humans. As for this Yama Sword, it is not for humble humans like you to get involved.
Yes!"
After speaking, Angelo slowly stretched out his left hand, then pushed out the Yama Sword with his thumb, and waved it provocatively in front of Agnus.
Agnus fell from the sky as if he was enraged, then raised his sword and slashed at Angelo angrily.
Looking at the opponent's gesture of wielding the big sword, Angelo shook his head, then suddenly pulled out the Yama sword and blocked the blow instantly. Then he immediately drew the knife, held the handle behind his back and hit the opponent's abdomen suddenly, knocking him away.
go out.
Looking at Agnus flying upside down, Angelo put it into his sheath and said disdainfully:
"You shouldn't be holding the sword, you should be holding the pillar that supports your church headquarters!"
"Damn it! You bastard!"
Faced with Angelo's ridicule, Agnus cursed angrily, then stood up and found himself a so-called "excuse."
"I had no intention of using my sword to deal with you. I said you would be burned by my sacred flames!"
As he finished speaking, Agnus was seen floating in mid-air, directing the Hell Hounds wandering outside the barrier to cross the barrier.
As he bent down and folded his body in half, he saw that Agnus' wings suddenly glowed with the same light as the previous gate of hell, and then heard Agnus' call:
"Firehound!"
Suddenly, stone statues appeared out of thin air, looking like standing dogs.
Along with the flames surging out from inside the stone statue, the fire hell dogs revived instantly, and then barked wildly in Angelo's direction.
Following Agnus' instructions, the hellhounds were seen lowering their bodies, and then instantly ejecting their burning heads, like boring bullets.
"Hmm...it looks like a lot. Do you want to compete with me in terms of firepower?"
After asking a question in reply, Angelo first used the Yama Demon Sword to smash the two nearest heads, and then thought about it
I saw phantom swords flying out all around Angelo, defeating the ejected dog heads one by one.
Finally, when he really didn't want to play anymore, he saw rows of phantom swords suddenly appearing around Angelo. With the sound that penetrated the sound barrier, those Hellhounds died suddenly and turned into flames and disappeared.
Seeing this scene, Agnus was suddenly stunned for a moment, and then while speaking doubtfully, he summoned something new.
"How is this possible? These fire hell dogs are the product of combining magic guns and hounds. One of them is of little use, but group combat is very difficult to deal with. Aren't you Nero's brother? You and his
There shouldn’t be much difference in strength, right?”
After saying that, Agonas flew into the sky, and then the wings on his back glowed with the same light as before,
And the thing summoned this time is no longer the so-called fire hell dog, but a scale blade that can wander inside the building.
Feeling the slight fluctuation of magic power coming from under his feet, Angelo suddenly did a backflip, and after dodging the attack from under his feet in mid-air,
Without waiting for the landing, he used the power of his spin to instantly pull out the Yama Sword and kill all those scale blades.
After taking a look at Agnus in mid-air and realizing that he wanted to summon something else, Angelo lost his patience and tightened his grip on the Yama Sword...
Accompanied by a burst of irregular space distortion, the sword light that was enough to tear apart the space instantly shredded Agnus' hard shell, and the opponent fell to the ground instantly after this move...
"Huh? Not dead? I thought you would be killed directly by this move? It looks interesting..."
In an unexpected situation, the other party was only slightly injured. Angelo glanced at the Yama Sword in his hand, then frowned and thought about it, then shook his head.
Agnas, who had already fallen to the ground, suddenly became angry after hearing these words. He stood up tremblingly, and then asked in a broken tone:
"How...how...how is this possible? What kind of power is this? I...I...have...received...the power given by His Majesty the Pope. Is there anything else? I, am I a demonic power unknown to me! No!
I must figure this out..."
Agnas, who was shouting, seemed to be preparing to do something after filling his whole body with power.
Seeing that the other party was still thinking about "turning the tables" before he died, Angelo sneered and then slowly took two steps forward without any intention of stopping him.
First... first use your power...!"
As he spoke, Agnus was seen leaning back sharply in the air, and his wings began to shine with a strange light, but the color was somewhat different from the color when summoning the demon.
Then, Agnus's wings began to make a low sound. For a moment, everything around him lost its color and filled the Mitis forest. The surging magic began to flow towards Agnus.
"Huh? This kind of power..."
For a moment, the slight feeling of weakness in his body told Angelo that his magic power was beginning to drain away.
The Hellhounds and Scale Blades that had been wandering around before were also lying on the ground powerlessly, and finally they all melted and disappeared like ice and snow in the sun.
"Hmph! Do you want to win by absorbing magic power? That's too naive!"
Shaking his head, without waiting for the other party to say anything again, Angelo instantly burst out with all his magic power, and the extremely powerful power swept around him.
Agnus, who was continuously absorbing magic power in mid-air, was instantly blown away by this sudden burst of power. After falling to the ground, he returned to his human form.
After getting up, looking at Angelo's appearance at this time, Agnas was stunned for a moment, then showed a shocked expression and said:
"This, this look...! How is it possible, you are just like that boy Nero, why... why! Why did you win, even though it was Dante... This is impossible! I, my
