Family heirloom, then turned into a demon girl

Chapter 334 Mission: 01-2 Demon King
"Woo..."

The cold water droplets landing on her cheeks woke Nero, and then she was immediately followed by a sharp pain throughout her body. She opened her eyes, and the dim and damp space was filled with a foul smell, and the murky water reflected the colorful light of oil.

This is a sewer that no one cares about.

Realizing this, Nero quickly reached out and wiped the water off her face, but the pain deep in her bones and the feeling of weakness made her let out a low groan of pain.

Honestly, she had never felt so weak before. The aching muscles and bones were only one aspect, but more importantly, she couldn't feel the magic power in her body at all. Her condition was even worse than before she awakened her demon bloodline.

So, Nero covered his forehead, tried hard to use his dizzy brain, and began to recall what had happened before.

The simulated star map went berserk, and I was taken to a completely unknown world, and then I was attacked by a bald man...

"The bastard of Sparta?"

The man's final words caught Nero's attention. While this wasn't the world Nero was born in, where Kyrie and Credo lived, it seemed the magic swordsman Sparda existed there as well. The man's claim that he had killed the woman Sparda was with was probably a pretty clear implication.

This is a parallel universe where Sparta, the Demon Emperor, Dante, and Virgil also exist. In this universe, Sparta failed to defeat the Demon Emperor, so the Demon Emperor, who defeated Sparta, put himself in a human body and secretly operated in the human world.

And from the previous situation, it can be seen that even if Nero has completed his demonization, he is no match for the Demon Emperor and can be said to be defeated at the first touch.

But that’s the problem—how did she survive the Demon Emperor?
What happened during the period of unconsciousness?
Suddenly, before Nero's eyes, the world began to distort. Bizarre scenes emerged one by one as the world twisted. The dark sewer began to writhe like a living stomach, and bizarre creatures rose from beneath the oily surface.

Nero stretched out his hand, trying to call upon the Yama Blade within his body, but there was no response.

Is it because he has no magic power? Nero's heart sank, and without caring about the dirt, he stood up by the wall, staggering to escape from this place.

The monster in the water followed closely behind her, neither getting closer nor farther away. Nero took out the Gift Card from his pocket, wanting to confirm his current condition, but the first glance was like a thunderclap ringing in his ears -

The Yama Sword is gone.

It was completely gone, never to return. Like a block of ice slowly melting in Nero's heart, the icy water flowed through her veins and into every part of her body.

She immediately understood what the answer to her previous doubts was. It was probably the Yama Sword that saved her life.

Perhaps after Nero fell unconscious, at the last moment, the Yama Blade broke through space and sent Nero away, but it was probably already reduced to scrap metal by the Demon Emperor. Nero lost this weapon forever.

So...are the other weapons still usable?

As expected, it still didn't work. In Nero's current state, she had no way of summoning the weapons dormant in her body, including the Sin Stones.

Thinking about it carefully, her powerful recovery ability as a demon seemed to have completely disappeared. She didn't know how long she had slept. Maybe she had been unconscious for half a month, just like Dante who was seriously injured by Urizen.

Nero felt her legs tremble with every step she took. She was now so weak she was worse than a normal person, and it was unavoidable that she couldn't summon her weapon. She still remembered the punch to the stomach from the Demon Emperor, the feeling of her internal organs twisting together. The Demon Emperor's terrifying, sea-like magic had crushed Nero's resistance, pouring into her body. The pain Nero felt now might mean that this magic was still attacking her body. Until it disappeared from her body, Nero would probably remain helpless.

But what is going on in this twisted world? Is the demonic realm invading reality? Are the strange creatures lurking in the water the Demon Emperor's spies?
In this strange world, every path seems to be fraught with danger.

Her concerns were correct.

A sticky black liquid gushed out from the bottom of the dirty water, and climbed up to the shore where Nero was with a series of "splashing" sounds, gradually gathering into one small demon after another that looked like a hound.

"Damn..."

Nero turned his head and immediately quickened his staggering pace.

It has been a long time since I felt chased by an enemy, let alone a demon so weak that even a normal person without any supernatural powers would not lose in a one-on-one fight.

Maybe this is what they call a tiger in plain land being bullied by a dog.

But even if we run away like this, where can we escape to?
Nero deliberately suppressed her thoughts, but the reality starkly lay before her. She had no way to escape this strange world, no way to escape the Demon Emperor's clutches. Even if she held out against these hounds for a long time, she couldn't escape to safety.

rather say……

Is there really a "safe place" in this world that cannot be reached by the Demon Emperor's clutches?

Looking at the current situation, who knows how long the Demon Emperor has been plotting in this world, or how far his tentacles extend. But with the power of the devil, at least for now, this city is definitely completely under his control.

There is no safety and no place here.

But Nero couldn't think about it, because if she did, she would give up, and giving up would mean complete death. She could only convince herself that since Sparta had been with "a certain woman," he should have also left two sons.

I believe that Dante and Virgil will still rebel against the Demon Emperor and will not let this world become a dystopia dominated by the Demon Emperor.

"—!"

Thinking of this, Nero suddenly realized why the runaway simulated star creation map brought her here.

This wasn't just because the same Demonic World Tree likely existed in this world, but also because a young beast from another [Closed World: Dystopia] was being born in this world. It could even be said that this Demon Emperor even more closely matched the definition of a "Dystopian Demon Lord" than Urizen, Vergil's half.

The Anti-Kabbalah Tree is eager for the birth of a new master, whether it will be Nero or Mundus. If Mundus really completes his domination -

Then the Demon King of the Far West, who once destroyed the most gods in the [Final Trial of Humanity], will return again.
