Custom Made Demon King

Roy, Sparda, and the others originally planned to support Dante, Nero, and Vergil's retreat, but the angel army in Aesir City noticed their intentions, so they sent several troops to stop them.

Four six-winged ancient seraphim led troops to intercept Roy and the others and kept entangling them. Sparda was eager to save his son and kept charging forward, so the resistance he faced was naturally the greatest. Under the siege of the four seraphim, he was in a dangerous situation, and a holy light spear almost stabbed through his back. If not for Roy and Berial promptly rushing over, he would have been heavily injured.

Berial and Sparda charged in front; Roy rode on Rafaro; and behind them, Madama Styx bombarded the angel army. However, the angels seemed determined to prevent the two sides from converging. Even when the front line was broken, they would immediately send troops to fill the gap. For a while, the two sides were in a deadlock.

Dante, Vergil, and Nero were in a bad situation. Dante and Vergil were both in Sin Devil form, and it was more than enough for them to protect themselves under the siege of the angels. But the problem was Nero. He still could not enter Sin Devil form and could not transform into a demon, so he naturally could not fly. He could only rely on his magic power to continuously double jump, and from time to time, he would shoot out the cable in his cybernetic arm and grab some angels in the air to borrow their strength. He knew that the current terrain was not suitable for him to fight in, so he avoided fighting and kept moving toward Roy and the others while Dante and Vergil fought and covered his retreat.

But this situation definitely could not last long. After the angels figured out Nero's movement pattern, they immediately seized the opportunity to stop him.

When an ancient angel was grabbed by Nero, he immediately detonated a holy light bomb in front of him. Nero was caught off guard, and as soon as he flew in front of the angel, the blast sent him flying.

There was no longer any path of holy light near Aesir City. Once he fell, it was equivalent to falling from a height of nearly ten thousand meters!

"No! Nero!" While fighting the angels, Dante was also paying attention to Nero's situation. When he saw that an accident had happened to Nero, he immediately pushed back his opponent and wanted to rush over to save him.

However, there was a shadow faster than Dante! Vergil passed Dante without a word, stretched his wings, and rushed toward Nero as fast as he could.

Although Vergil was cold as ever, Nero had a different meaning to him. He already owed his son too much, so it was absolutely impossible for him to watch Nero die like this.

In his Sin Devil form, Vergil turned into a meteor, charged straight toward Nero, and extended his hand toward him from afar.

Nero did not give up either and was also trying to save himself. When he saw Vergil rushing over, he immediately became energetic.

But when he saw the situation behind Vergil, his expression immediately changed!

Following behind Vergil were three similar meteors. They were three six-winged seraphim holding enormous holy swords, and their target was none other than Vergil.

"Vergil! Behind you! Be careful!" Nero shouted. "Ignore me! Deal with the enemies first!"

However, Vergil turned a deaf ear. He knew very well that he should first deal with the enemies behind him, but after the delay, he might not be able to save Nero. Thus, he continued heading toward Nero without a care, as though he did not hear Nero's shout.

Dante was also rushing over desperately. He flew over and stopped one of the seraphim, but he was helpless regarding the other two.

In the air, Vergil finally caught up to Nero. He stretched out his demon claws to grab Nero's arm and then suddenly threw him up. "Dante!!"

Thrown upward, Nero flew involuntarily toward Dante. Then he turned around and saw a scene that made his eyes turn red!

The two seraphim following closely behind stabbed their holy swords into Vergil's chest the moment he flung Nero away…

Purple demon blood shot out as the sharp blades pierced into his chest. Dazzling light shone in the sky, and then the intense holy light on the holy swords burned the blood, turning it into choking smoke.

The premonition of death came. But under the intense pain, Vergil smiled toward Nero.

"Live on… Nero…"

Nero, whom Dante had just caught, was stunned when he saw Vergil's smile. His hand was still absentmindedly reaching out to Vergil, but he could not grab anything. He could only watch as Vergil's body burned with golden holy flames and fell from the air.

"No!!!" The reason in Nero's mind utterly broke at this moment. As he roared and screamed in sorrow, his right cybernetic arm turned into countless dust, and a new arm quickly grew out. At the same time, a layer of pitch-black cuticle began to spread from his arm and rapidly spread over his entire body.

Dante noticed Nero's changes and looked at him in surprise. He saw his nails become sharp, feather-shaped demon horns appear on his forehead, and a pair of blue demon wings appear on his back!

"This… this kid!" Dante gasped. Of course, he knew that Nero had entered Sin Devil form and completed his demonization under his agitation. But he did not expect Nero's Sin Devil form to possess such formidable magic power. While holding him, Dante felt his entire body was burning hot, and the flames of magic power had already enveloped Nero's entire body.

Subconsciously, Dante let go of Nero. After being released, Nero disappeared with a bang.

Nero instantly broke through the sound barrier and chased after the falling Vergil. The two seraphim who killed Vergil raised their swords to intercept him, but the magic power shock wave brought by Nero directly knocked them flying away.

In the distance, even Roy and Sparda saw the meteor that was Nero swoop down. The unrestrained and unscrupulous display of magic power made Nero's presence explode.

"Nero…?" Sparda was panting after killing a high-level angel and stared at the meteor in disbelief.

Roy was also quite surprised. To be honest, he thought that because of his appearance, Nero would not be able to enter Sin Devil form so easily in a short time. He did not expect that due to Vergil's accident, Nero would complete this leap in his agitation.

As a descendant of Sparda, Nero also had Sparda's demon lord bloodline in his body. He was the child of Vergil and a human woman. Dante and Vergil had half of the demon bloodline in their bodies, while Nero only had one-fourth!

Nero's demon bloodline was thinner than Dante's and Vergil's, meaning that it was more difficult for him to complete the full demonization than them.

However, it was worth noting that once Nero completed his demonization, the strength he displayed would be even greater! His demon form actually had faint atavism!

The moth-like feather-shaped demon horns and the light wings that were very different from that of other demons both showed the characteristics of insect-type demons. Even for Dante and Vergil, their demon forms only had some characteristics of insect-type demons and were incomparable to Nero's demon form.

What's going on? Could it be that after the demon bloodline became thinner, it instead caused the bloodline to become purer?

Roy could not come to any conclusion for the moment, but… he was really envious of Sparda. His family of four had all become demon lords, and they were all powerful. What's with Sparda's insect-type demon bloodline? Is it possible that their family are all descendants of Demon King Beelzebub?

Nero was so fast that he crossed the distance of three kilometers in merely a few seconds and caught Vergil before he fell.

Vergil could no longer maintain his demon form at this time, and the holy flames on his body were still burning. After catching him, Nero immediately injected a large amount of magic power into Vergil to help him extinguish the holy flames. Under the stimulation of the magic power, Vergil woke up. After opening his eyes, he looked at the unfamiliar demon in front of him in disbelief. After a long time, he said with difficulty, "You're… Nero?!"

"… Vergil…" Nero's strange demon eyes looked at Vergil with a complicated expression. "Why did you…"

Before Nero finished speaking, Vergil understood and smiled slightly. "Thank you, Nero!"

"Nevermind…" Nero replied. He spread his light wings and flew higher up again. After arriving on the battlefield, he used his extreme speed to pull Dante out of the siege. Then the three of them turned into a stream of light and broke through the angel army's defense line to arrive beside Sparda.

"Vergil!" In the sky, Roy did not say anything when he saw this. He only shouted at Vergil and threw a potion bottle at him.

Vergil grabbed it and looked at it in puzzlement. But he soon realized that it was for him to treat his injuries, so he raised his head and downed it.

Under the effect of this potion refined from souls, smoke quickly emerged from the two terrifying wounds on Vergil's chest. After the residual holy light power was completely expelled, his self-healing ability began to work again.

After recovering, Vergil transformed into his demon form once more and floated in the air.

The Sparda family of four, together with Roy, Berial, and Madama Styx, a total of seven demon lords stood opposite the angel army. The powerful magic power emitted by the seven demon lords combined together and caused the angel army of tens of thousands opposite them to be stunned.

However, the angels naturally would not give up because of the strength of the enemy. They quickly regrouped and prepared to fight.

Just as both sides were prepared to go all out, the world suddenly changed!

The sky of Heaven, which was full of holy light, suddenly dimmed and turned into a dark starry sky. The shining stars hung in the dark night like gems.

"This… have we entered Jubileus's small world again?" Madama Styx looked around in surprise and doubt. But she found that the starry sky was endless and immediately realized that her guess was wrong…
