Episode 1, A New Beginning(3/4)

"Hahahaha! Boy, if you can't hold on, you can just fly up!"

After deliberately slowing down to keep pace with Angelo, Dante looked at Angelo who was a little out of breath and laughed, then suddenly accelerated his speed and flew upwards.

Don't think about the strange tone and voice in his mind, it must be Dante just now. Angelo cursed in his heart:

"Ah? Damn it, transmitting the voice directly into other people's minds will scare them to death! Stop joking, this will surpass you!"

Thinking in his mind, Angelo accelerated instantly, and when he was about to overtake Dante, the opponent pushed hard and instantly opened the distance.

And Angelo also followed suit. The two were approaching quickly. Just when they were about to catch up, Dante suddenly disappeared in front of him.

Where had he gone? As soon as this question appeared in Angelo's mind, he felt his feet go empty. After reacting in mid-air, he turned over and landed on the aisle in front of him.

"Bah bang bang!"

A burst of applause came from the door on the left. Angelo turned his head and saw that Dante was leaning in front of a statue of a lion's head and human body that was squatting on the ground. His hand happened to be resting on the metal can carried by the statue.

"Not bad! A little slower than me! Keep up the good work next time!"

After patting the jar carried by the statue, Dante pushed open the door behind him and muttered softly:

"If I had known I had chosen the location, I would have gone up directly..."

Ignoring Dante's words, Angelo looked at the statue in surprise when passing by it.

It should be the Statue of Time and Space. I heard my mother say it before. Its function seems to be to sacrifice the blood of demons in exchange for what you need. It is of no use, at least to Angelo.

Stepping through the gate, there was a creaking sound under his feet. Angelo bent down, and under the moonlight, he stepped on broken red crystal stones, like rubies, but there was a faint magic power shining on them, indicating that this was going to happen.

Things are never as simple as they appear.

Picking up a piece from the ground, Angelo ran two steps, followed Dante, and quickly took the red crystal fragment in his hand and asked:

"What is this thing used for? I seem to have seen it at Forduna's place. Is it the same thing?"

Looking at the red crystal fragment in Angelo's hand, Dante frowned and replied:

"This is called the Red Soul Stone. That seems to be the name. It is used to break seals or engrave scrolls related to magic. It should be like this. Anyway, I think it is of no use, so throw it away!"

After saying that, he turned to look at the steps in front of him, took a deep breath, and stepped up.

Seeing his uncle's heavy look, Angelo didn't ask further questions. He threw away the crystal fragments in his hands and rushed after him.

Without saying anything, seeing Dante staring blankly at the open space ahead, Angelo raised his hand and waved it in front of his eyes.

After noticing Angelo's movements, Dante showed an expression that looked like he was crying but not crying, but also smiling but not laughing. Then he pointed forward and said in a low tone:

"Look at the front, my brother, your father, and I met again for the first time. He was standing there, holding a knife, looking so cool!"

After finishing speaking, he smiled bitterly and said in a slightly reminiscence tone:

"How I wish I could see him again after climbing the steps! Haha..."

Looking at the sad expression of the man in front of him, Angelo didn't know why, but he felt a little bitter in his heart. Although he had always talked about his "father" before, the man in front of him was his biological brother.

ah……

Maybe it was because of the moonlight, but Angelo seemed to see two tears falling from the corners of Dante's eyes, but there seemed to be no tears.

Surprisingly, without disturbing the man in front of him, Angelo walked to the surrounding pillars, looked at the dense knife marks on them, and then looked at the town below.

I don’t know why. It stands to reason that at this time, the town below should be brightly lit, but in Angelo’s eyes, there is only a little light shining on the edge of the city, like fireflies in the dark night...

.And with this tower as the center, the closer you get, the less light you get, until you reach darkness at the bottom of the tower...

Although I have doubts, I think about the records that my mother once told me, and combined with some things, I can deduce what exactly happened at that time...

Without asking, there was no need to ask, Angelo stood quietly aside and patted him on the shoulder.

"It's okay, it's all over. Well~, you wait a moment, I'll destroy this thing first."

Without too much sadness, Dante said as he took out a cup from the back of his windbreaker, which was the Holy Grail of Blood that Beja had given him before.

"I knew you didn't deal with it. Aunt Tracy said it right, you are just lazy!"

"What did you say? Boy, I've been thinking about this. Well, if it weren't for what your mother said was too serious, I really wouldn't have to go to a place where birds don't shit in order to destroy this thing.

Just throw it into outer space and keep it company with those space junk..."

After retorting, Dante took out Pandora's Box and put it on the ground, then knocked the cup in his hand twice and smiled...

The next moment, in Angelo's wonder, Dante wrapped the Blood Holy Grail with magic power, then solidified the magic power, and finally formed a scarlet magic crystal.

I have to say that I can't do it just in terms of control. Although the Phantom Sword seems to be solid, it is the ability I realized after touching the Blade of Sparta. It's just that when I touched the Thunder for the first time,

After the sword, it was just like that subconsciously.

As for Nero...it's okay not to mention that half-hearted thing.

Closer to home, if you let yourself do it, at least you won't be able to master it now. Since the devil's power was fully awakened, he has never used his full strength, so he has no way of knowing his own limit...

Then, Dante looked at the oval-shaped crystal in his hand that had been solidified by magic power, with the Holy Grail of Blood sealed inside.

Then he touched his chin, frowned and muttered:

"Zi, I originally wanted to put it at Enzo's place, but if I really follow what my dear sister-in-law said, I might be sold by that guy that day, but it's not appropriate to go to the earth for this thing alone? Hiss.

…”

As he spoke, Dante handed the crystal in his hand to Angelo, then picked up Pandora and conceived a thermal weapon in his mind

"Bazooka? No! It doesn't have enough firepower, and neither can mortars! The electromagnetic railgun is fine, but it has no field of vision. If it hits a satellite, you have to pay money..."

Watching Dante manipulate Pandora into various thermal weapons over and over again, even making unreliable things like slings, Angelo glanced at the huge full moon above his head and sighed.

He took a breath and reminded:

"Why don't you try the interstellar rail gun? I remember that it is equipped with a sight, and it is very powerful..."

"That's right! That's it. There are fearless ones to deal with laser cannons, so if you want to fire cannonballs, let's use light particle cannons. Although I don't know if it's possible, I'm sure I can fly out of the earth!"

After saying that, images of the anime I had watched began to appear in my mind, and with the guidance of my thoughts, Pandora's Box turned into something similar to a rocket ship.

The tail end is a balancing device similar to a wing. There is a sight on the left side that extends all the way to the gun muzzle. The triangular bracket below is firmly fixed on the ground, and it is streamlined from the tail end of the machine gun muzzle to the front...



"If you don't have a Gundam, just aim manually!"

Put the magic crystal on top of the balancing device, and then under Dante's control, a groove suddenly appeared at the bottom of the magic crystal sealing the Holy Grail. Then, like a smoothbore cannon being loaded, the crystal was pushed into the launch chamber.

.

From the scope, Dante clearly saw the satellite garbage floating in outer space, and also saw several other planets orbiting the sun. He weighed it in his mind and finally chose to launch to Jupiter.

As for whether it can be launched to Jupiter, Dante doesn't know, but human technology will definitely not be able to reach it, so

"You can't throw it out after all your hard work only to be picked up by those curious babies in the end!"

After saying that, along with a loud noise, a bright light suddenly exploded in the sky, and then in Dante's sight, the Holy Grail wrapped in magic hit the Great Red Spot of Jupiter at a speed far below the speed of light and shattered.



"Done! Okay, boy, it's your business now!"

With that said, Dante put away Pandora's Box, while Angelo, who had been waiting for a long time, quickly took out the light-shattering blade and said:

"In addition to the move you used to pierce the knee of the big stone sculpture with one move that day, and the magic armor, I also want to learn the swordsmanship passed down in the family, and there are many, many more, such as..."

After listening, Dante quickly waved his hand and said impatiently:

"Wait, wait, wait! Wait! Don't say it yet, let me tell you!"

After speaking, Dante shook his head twice, touched his chin, and began to introduce the skills he had mastered:

"My strength or skills, if divided systematically, can be divided into four types.

The first type of Trickers uses space spells and phantoms to deceive the enemy. Of course, it also includes various abilities such as displacement, flickering, etc. Huh?"

As he spoke, Dante let out a light sigh and said in surprise:

"Oh! If you didn't look carefully, I wouldn't know I was so powerful! But I think you don't need to learn this

Okay, the second type: Sword Master, as the name suggests, all weapons are swords, and all swords are soldiers. It brings the power of various melee weapons to the extreme. This is a test of skills. In fact, your Iai swordsmanship is also good, although

It looks a little awkward,

And the third type: Gun Master, I don’t think you will learn it, literally!

The fourth type: Royal Guard, this type mainly tests your reaction ability. Generally when the enemy is about to attack you, you use magic power to strengthen your body the moment the attack arrives to carry out defensive counterattack.

Of course, fearless people also belong to this type! Let’s do this, you just give me a knife!”

Looking at Dante who took two steps back, Angelo looked at him suspiciously. Although this request was a bit strange, without thinking much, Angelo instantly pulled out the light-shattering blade and thrust it forward suddenly, catching him off guard.

It penetrated directly through Dante's body, and the latter "screamed" symbolically...

"Boy, I asked you to chop, not stab directly!"

After touching his abdomen, Dante reminded him, and then his eyes slowly became dangerous.

I don't know why, but seeing Dante's expression at this time, Angelo always felt a chill in his back. He shook the blade in his hand, and then drew it out instantly...

"clang!"
To be continued...
