Infinite: Starting from Resident Evil

Although witches have made pacts with demons, they are also among the protectors of humanity.

“However, Ceresia, you haven’t been very hospitable. Madame Butterfly came to help, and you didn’t even pour her a cup of tea.” Joan of Arc changed into slippers and went into the living room, only to find the coffee table empty. She couldn’t help but complain to Bayonetta.

Then, she paused for a moment: "Help? What happened? There don't seem to be any angels around here."

“It has nothing to do with angels. Mr. Cat just wanted to ask Mrs. Butterfly something, and he has already found out.” Bayonetta explained, then frowned and said, “Also, why are you blaming me instead of Mr. Cat for entertaining the guests? I remember you said last night that he is the master of this house.”

"It's simple. I couldn't bear to part with her, so I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you," Jeanne said with a grin. Then she plopped down next to Shen Ye and asked, "What did you want to ask her about? Did you run into trouble?"

“It wasn’t us, it was Enzo,” Shen Ye said. “He just called Miss Cat and said that his child had been kidnapped by a woman, and that the woman seemed to have connections with the devil.”

"He's really unlucky," Joan of Arc sighed. Last time Enzo was hunted down by a demon's henchman called the Black Knight, and this time his child was kidnapped by a woman who had connections with demons. It's just unbelievable.

"So when do we set off?" she continued, though she quite liked Enzo's two children, of course, she liked them because Shen Ye said he did.

Shen Ye said, "The sooner the better, preferably buy a ticket that can take off today."

“Then I’ll go book the tickets now.” Joan of Arc, who hadn’t been sitting for long, stood up again, took out her phone, and then rummaged through a phone book in a drawer under the coffee table. As she looked through the contacts, she said, “This can’t be done for nothing. Enzo has to pay us. Tickets to America are so expensive. I’m already unemployed.”

“You can spend my money.” Shen Ye pulled out a stack of euros, all of them in denominations of five hundred euros.

But Joan of Arc shook her head: "You should spend your money on yourself and on us. I'll put the cost of the plane tickets on Enzo's tab; he's got money anyway."

"Alright then." Shen Ye put the money away and said with great emotion, "Jenny, you are such a good girl who knows how to manage a household."

"Thank you for the compliment, darling." The silver-haired witch smiled happily after being praised.

"What about me?" The black-haired witch standing to the side immediately became dissatisfied.

"Of course you are too, Miss Cat."

"Not sincere at all." Although she said that, Bayonetta still laughed; she was just that easily satisfied.

The female demon sitting to the side watched the three of them chatting and laughing, and suddenly felt superfluous.

Am I really that ugly?

Thinking this to herself, Madame Butterfly touched her face...

……

After the silver-haired witch booked the plane tickets, the female demon was also sent back to hell by the black-haired witch. The three of them quickly packed their luggage and then set off for the airport.

At 1 p.m., the plane took off on time, a rare occurrence, and seven or eight hours later, it landed in that big city on the east coast.

"Oh my god, you've finally arrived."

After receiving the call, Enzo was already waiting at the airport. This very family-oriented man was pacing back and forth at the exit like a cat on a hot tin roof. When he saw Shen Ye and the others come out, he immediately ran over.

He wasn't surprised by Joan of Arc's appearance. He had been informed before Shen Ye and the other two set off, and Joan of Arc had even discussed the reward with him. He agreed without hesitation.

Upon meeting, seeing the anxious expression on Enzo's face, Bayonetta, who had worked with him many times, comforted him, "Don't worry, Enzo, we will rescue your child."

“I know, I believe in your abilities, but you’ve never been parents, so you have no idea that anxiety is an emotion I can’t control right now,” Enzo said bitterly.

Upon hearing this, Bayonetta could only shrug and say nothing more. She was still a long time away from giving birth, so she naturally couldn't empathize with her.

Shen Ye and Zhen De were no exception.

The three then followed Enzo to the parking lot. When they reached Enzo's sports car, Shen Ye asked, "When did that woman agree to meet you?"

"Tonight, at midnight." Enzo got into the car, took out the key to start the sports car, but perhaps because he was too anxious, he couldn't get the key into the ignition several times.

"Where?" Shen Ye, who was naturally sitting in the passenger seat, took the key from his hand and helped him insert it.

“She hasn’t told me yet, and told me to wait for her call.” Enzo sighed. “Whatever she wants from me, as long as she doesn’t hurt my child, I’ll give it all to her. I really can’t live without my child.”

"Don't be too pessimistic, Enzo. Maybe their demands are low!" Shen Ye patted Enzo on the shoulder. He didn't think there was anything about Enzo that Mondes was interested in. Perhaps, the other party just wanted to know the whereabouts of the Witcher from Enzo.

After all, that woman wasn't a bad person at heart!

……

Chapter 556! A scene straight out of a TV drama.

……

Enzo did not take Shen Ye and the other two to his house. After the child was kidnapped, his wife was even more emotionally unstable than he was. She cried at home all day. If Enzo hadn't said he had a way to save the child, she probably would have called the police long ago.

So Enzo took them straight to the Gates of Hell bar, where he needed some alcohol to soothe himself after a day of anxiety.

Unlike the previous times Shen Ye came, this time the bar was unusually lively. The dozen or so tables were packed, and several scantily clad bunny girls carried plates and flitted between the tables like butterflies. Even when drunk customers groped them, they didn't care. Instead, they would giggle, wink, and run away.

"Tsk, it's quite lively." Shen Ye's gaze lingered on the bunny girls for a moment before quickly shifting away. It wasn't that he was afraid of offending the witches if he looked at them too much... In fact, the witches were staring at the bunny girls without any restraint, because they could all tell that these bunny girls were not human.

"I thought Rodin was a decent person, doing legitimate business!" Shen Ye whispered to the witch beside him.

Rodin's bar doesn't play exaggerated heavy metal music like most bars; instead, it plays soft, light music that makes people feel at ease. So even if he speaks softly, the witches can hear him, but... it doesn't seem to suit the bar's atmosphere.

Hearing Shen Ye's words, Bayonetta smiled slightly: "Rodin is a businessman. Can a businessman be a decent person?"

“That makes sense.” Shen Ye nodded in agreement, and then the group walked towards the bar together.

To be honest, the witch's appearance and figure not only meet Asian aesthetic standards, but are even more attractive to Europeans and Americans. While not all people who like to go to bars are bad people, if you take them all out, there will definitely be some who slip through the net, especially since the bar is located in the slums of America.

Just as they were passing a table, a flippant whistle rang out, and then a groping hand reached out.

However, the hand stopped halfway there, and then its owner was lifted up.

“It’s a cliché plot, but after all this time, this is the first time I’ve experienced something like this… So, buddy, how do you plan to end this?” Shen Ye said, grabbing the bald black man in front of him by the neck. Although Rodin was also black, at least he was a respectable person, while the black man in front of him was the kind of parasite that America was most famous for.

Although the black man being choked by Shen Ye had drunk a lot of alcohol, he was still conscious. He knew his weight was definitely over 200 pounds, but he was lifted up by an Asian man with one hand. This made him wonder if he had walked into the set of Terminator, and at the same time, he was deeply afraid. The other black men at the table with him did not dare to make any rash moves, but one of them slowly reached down to his waist.

"Sorry, buddy, I didn't mean to," the black man said with some difficulty, feeling like he was about to run out of breath.

"So it was intentional!" Shen Ye's lips curled up slightly as he turned to Enzo and said, "Want to vent? Here's a ready-made punching bag."

Enzo thought for a moment and realized he really needed a chance to vent, so he kicked the black man in the groin without hesitation, causing him to faint from the pain.

Seeing this, not only Shen Ye, but many men in the bar subconsciously glanced down at themselves, feeling the same way, thinking that it must be extremely painful.

As the black man passed out, several other black men at his table jumped to their feet. One of them even pulled out a pistol, but he easily threw it to the ground because the two witches had already pressed the muzzle of their guns against their heads.

Shen Ye threw the black man in his hand on the ground and coldly said to the other black men, "We don't have time to play with you. Now, take him and get out of here, or I'll make you just like him, destined to be eunuchs for the rest of your lives."

Upon hearing this, the black men didn't dare to say a word. They carried the bald man away from the bar, and the other customers at the other tables also turned their attention away. To them, fighting in bars was commonplace and nothing unusual.

After the black men left, Shen Ye said to the two witches with a hint of helplessness, "I usually only see this kind of scene in TV dramas. It seems that with you two around, I won't be seeing this kind of thing often in the future."

Both witches understood the meaning behind Shen Ye's words, and Joan of Arc said with a smile, "There's nothing we can do about it, what can we do when we have such good figures!"

"It's more accurate to say that the security here is terrible. Do you agree, Rodin?" Shen Ye was already used to the witches' narcissism. He walked to the bar and spoke to Rodin, who was ignoring everything.

"Don't worry, these scum won't live much longer, my friends," Rodin said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Shen Ye noticed that there seemed to be fewer bunny girls in the bar.

"Hopefully this won't make tomorrow's headlines." Shen Ye roughly guessed what those bunny girls were up to, but he didn't sympathize with their fate.

“A few deaths in the slums are nothing. Forget about making headlines, the police in this area won’t even glance at them. Besides, it’s impossible to find their bodies. At most, it’ll be treated as a missing persons case.” Rodin said the most terrifying words in a calm tone. Then, he looked at Enzo: “When you’re in a bad mood, you need a drink. Enzo, this time it’s on me. I’ll treat you to the best wine, and you won’t have to spend a penny.”

“Thank you.” Enzo jumped onto the bar stool, nodded gratefully to Rodin, and then added, “Can the previous drinks be waived?”

"What do you think?" Rodin glanced at Enzo with annoyance, then took out a bottle of his treasured wine from under the bar and poured a glass for everyone.

After taking a sip of his own drink, he looked at Jeanne d'Arc sitting next to Shen Ye.

"I didn't expect that besides Bayonetta, there were other survivors of the witch race."

"I never imagined that an angel would fall into demonhood and even become a middleman," Joan of Arc said with a smile, taking a big gulp of wine.

Shen Ye was a little confused by what she said, and he asked Joan of Arc what she meant by "middleman".

Jeanne immediately explained, “Not all demons can tempt humans to give up their lives, nor can all vampires have a full blood bank. Some low-level demons who are struggling to make ends meet will sell their freedom in exchange for fresh food from middlemen who can protect them. However, these middlemen are the main targets of some churches and demon hunters.”

These words made Shen Ye frown slightly.

“I would never lay a hand on a good person. The world is bad enough as it is, there’s no need to make the already few good people even fewer.” Rodin also explained, “Those guys were pre-selected targets. What they did deserved that fate.”

"Then I'm relieved." Shen Ye breathed a sigh of relief. His moral bottom line wouldn't change because of a relationship, at least not for now.

……

(This will enrich the new world view and make it easier to expand the plot in the future.)

(For example, you can add anime and movies like Hellsong and Underworld, and some games can also be added.)

(Of course, I can't guarantee that it will be written exactly like this. Maybe I'll just write a story about witches and Devil May Cry. It depends on my writing skills... but I'm sure it will enrich the world-building.)

Chapter 557! Trish

……

The conversation didn't linger on Rodin's current activities for long before quickly returning to Enzo, since Shen Ye and the other two had returned to America so quickly for his sake.

Rodin was very fond of the barware. As he wiped the glasses with a cloth that looked like it was made of animal hide, he asked, "Hasn't that woman called yet?"

"No." Enzo, whose emotions had finally been calmed down by alcohol, became agitated again. He, who was usually very conscious of his image, ran his hands through his messy hair and said painfully.

"Whatever she wants to do or what she wants, just call me as soon as possible."
