The Kind Devil (FemVergil x Male Reader)

Ch 15: Students of Sparda

Dantine's Pov

I got back to my shop late at night after a job. When I shut the door, I saw a long-haired man waiting in the shop.

Dantine: "Oh, hey there. You got a job for me too, handsome?" I jokingly flirted.

??: "I am here to tell you my brother plans to duel both you and your sister."

Dantine: "Why? Doesn't he know who we are?"

??: "We were both trained by Sparda. He wishes to claim his power, so he wants to kill both of you."

Dantine: "Well then, who should I look for?"

??: "I am Modeus. My brother's name is Baal. He demands to duel you, and then your older sister."

Dantine: "How does he think he can win?"

Modeus: "I do not know if he does."

Dantine: "And why do you not want me dead?"

Modeus: "As I grew, I came to hate my sword. Compared to the demon world, this realm is beautiful to me."

Dantine: "Well, I'm not one to back down from a challenge. So where is he?" The demon pointed outside to a park.

I found his brother there. It was pouring rain.

Dantine: "Let's settle this thing fast, before I catch a cold." He didn't move. "What's wrong? Maybe you're too scared? To do anything without your little brother, is that it?"

He summoned a sword from the ground and charged at me. It was interesting to fight someone trained by my father, but in the end I stood victorious. I hadn't even brought the Sparda for this. Then Modeus attacked me for killing his brother. He was even easier.

I never realized that by killing them, I gave that lesser demon that kept showing up exactly what he wanted.

Timeskip

I was contracted to protect a pendant next. I found out that the woman hiring me for it was Patty's mother, so we brought her back from Fortuna. When she arrived, she first came to my shop to say goodbye.

Patty: "Your sister's way neater than you."

Dantine: "Why do you think I had her take care of you?" She ran off to go see her mom. I didn't notice until it was too late that she took the pendant. I ran after her and found where her mom and that lesser demon were. He wanted the pendant to perform some ritual. I found a portal open and jumped through.

I was briefly defeated, but Patty came through and woke me up. She got back to the human world and I pulled Rebellion out of my chest. I found the lesser demon, Cid, in a new form that this new powerful demon he'd summoned had given him.

I killed him this time, since he went way too far. With that, another major threat was dead.

In the aftermath of everything, Patty started coming by and cleaning the office up. I also kept hunting demons, sometimes with Lady and Trish. I hated working with them, but sometimes I needed the help, like against the demon Cid summoned.

Now that things were relatively calm, I decided to pay my sister a visit. We wrote regularly, but we hadn't seen each other in person for a while. I made my way to Fortuna after writing to her.

When I got there, I went to her shop and knocked on the door. Nero opened it.

Nero: "Oh, hey. Was wondering when you'd show up."

Dantine: "Hey kid. Where're your parents?"

Nero: "They're inside. Come on." I came in and Vergilia was at her desk.
