But more were coming. From streetlights, from corrupted billboards, from the tear in the sky that now wept silent, pixelated rain. And somewhere deeper—past the null zone—a signal pulsed. A familiar demonic signature, but twisted. Processed. Digitized.

The sign flickered above the worn-out shop: Devil May Cry . Inside, Dante tipped back in his chair, a half-eaten slice of pizza balanced on his chest. The air smelled of old leather, gunpowder, and rebellion. But tonight, even the usual neon chaos of the city felt wrong—too still, too quiet.

So Dante stopped assuming.

Then the sky split open.

No demons scratched at the door. No calls came in from Lady. Even the phone line hummed with dead static.

Dante grinned. “Finally. A challenge that doesn’t bleed out in two hits.”

He closed his eyes. Let instinct override logic. Fired Ivory blind—not at the NSP, but at the memory of where it had been . The shot curved. Reality hiccupped. The creature shattered like a frozen window.
