That evening at Devil May Cry in Japan, Izuku gave Nero a tour of his café after closing time. Nero was impressed by the cleanliness and the delicious leftovers Sato had prepared.
Afterward, Izuku showed Nero to the spare room in his upstairs apartment for the night. Nero relaxed on the couch as they chatted.
"What do you think?" Izuku asked, taking a seat beside him as shadow in his panther form layed on izuku's lap.
"It's great. Way better than Dante's old joint," Nero replied.
"Yeah, I wonder if Lady and Trish kept it intact," Izuku mused.
"Morrison probably has it now," Nero speculated.
"How's Kyrie and the kids?" Izuku inquired.
"They're good. Hey, it's almost time," Nero reminded, and Izuku nodded.
"Only two months left, right? Where's the wedding?" Izuku asked, smiling.
"Either in Fortuna or Redgrave," Nero replied, leaning back.
"Why Redgrave?" Izuku questioned.
"Because... It's where it all began. Sparda, Eva, Dante, Vergil, you, and me. Our lives intersected there," Nero explained.
"That makes sense. I was holding off on Redgrave, though, until Dad and Dante come back at least," Izuku remarked.
"Yeah, without them, it just wouldn't feel right," Nero agreed with a smirk.
"When are those two coming back anyway?" Nero asked.
"Who knows? They're probably still out there having a blast. They've got decades to catch up on," Izuku replied.
"By the way, have you been to Dante's and Vergil's old place in Redgrave?" Nero asked, and Izuku shook his head.
"Why? Is there something important there?" Izuku inquired.
"Dante buried our grandmother there," Nero revealed.
"Oh, I should visit once things settle down. Maybe leave some flowers," Izuku replied stroking his chin.
"I still can't believe Trish has the same face as her," Nero chuckled, and Izuku nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, it's uncanny. Dante burying Mundus on Mallet Island definitely lightens the load for the rest of us, right?" Izuku nudged Nero, who nodded in response.
"RAAAGH!!!" Fenrir suddenly crept up behind Nero, startling him and causing him to tumble off the couch.
Izuku burst into laughter, joined by Griffon. Shadow, who had been fast asleep, stirred at the sound of their laughter. Even the furniture began to shake with amusement, and Nightmare found the situation hilarious.
"Come here, you damm dog!" Nero yelled, embarrassed, as he transformed into his devil trigger form.
"Activating Battle mode" Fenrir said calmly as he dodged one of Nero's punches which destroyed a table.
"Oh Shit, this could escalate quickly," Izuku remarked, attempting to intervene before Nero destroyed his house.
Griffon laughed even harder until a vase hit him on the beak, while Shadow remained fast asleep despite the chaos.
Later That Night-
Izuku gave Nero a tour of the bar while Fenrir and he worked behind the counter. Nero settled onto a stool beside the counter as Izuku polished some glasses, and Griffon and Fenrir served patrons, some of whom were belting out karaoke tunes.
