DEVIL MAY CRY: Chronicles of the Dark Hunter

Capítulo 1: Chapter 1: Awakening of the Devil

In the dimly lit back alley of Redgrave City, the air hung heavy with the stench of despair and decay. The city had seen better days, but that was before the demons began to infiltrate every corner of human life. It was a place where the line between the living and the supernatural had blurred.

Dante, the infamous demon hunter with silver hair and a devil-may-care attitude, sat perched on a rusted fire escape, surveying the desolation below. The weight of countless battles had etched lines of exhaustion into his face, but his eyes still burned with an unquenchable fire.

The night was unusually quiet. Dante had grown accustomed to the sounds of chaos—demonic screams, gunfire, and the wails of despair. But tonight, a foreboding silence hung in the air, unsettling him. It was the calm before the storm.

With a graceful leap, he descended to the alley, his crimson long coat billowing around him. As he stepped onto the cracked pavement, he heard a faint, desperate cry. It was a child, lost in this nightmare.

Without hesitation, Dante followed the sound, his boots echoing in the desolation. He turned a corner to find a young girl huddled behind a dumpster, her tear-stained face peeking out. She couldn't have been more than ten, clutching a worn teddy bear as her only source of comfort.

Dante knelt down, extending a hand, but he didn't need to say a word. The girl recognized him—a legendary protector of humanity, the one who defied demons with his very existence. She hesitated for a moment before reaching out, allowing Dante to lift her to safety.

As he carried her through the desolate streets, he couldn't help but wonder how many innocent lives had been shattered by the demonic invasion. The child's whimpering was a stark reminder of the suffering that surrounded them.

They reached the Devil May Cry office, Dante's iconic sanctuary hidden amidst the chaos. It was a place where weapons, trophies, and demon-related artifacts filled every corner. The office bore the legacy of countless battles, a testament to Dante's unwavering resolve.

Dante gently placed the girl among the others in the office and stood before them, his gaze unwavering. "We can't let the demons take our world," he said, his voice filled with determination. "It's time for an eternal reckoning."

The survivors looked to Dante, their reluctant savior, and nodded. The battle was far from over, but in the face of darkness, a spark of hope had been kindled.

With that, Dante prepared his weapons, knowing that the demons would return, fiercer than ever. The eternal reckoning had begun, and he would stand at the forefront, ready to face the hordes of darkness to protect what remained of humanity.
