DISCLAIMER: My brother and I do not own Devil May Cry and Tales of Zestiria. We just decided to make a crossover fanfic about them 'cause we wanna. We do what we want.
3rd Person POV:
Sorey yelled in pain as he fell down, promptly surprising the others. Mikleo immediately goes to help Sorey up after Dante got off, glaring at said half-breed as he went. Rose stepped forward a bit cautiously.
"Who are you and what did you do that for?!" She asked angrily as Lailah looked on in concern. Edna stared quietly, trying to assess him. Dante shrugged as he dusted his coat, for no apparent reason.
"He was in my way. Can't exactly maneuver while doing a flip, you know." He said jokingly. Sorey groaned as he sat up, and at this point, Mikleo was already glaring a thousand daggers into Dante's back.
"That we can understand. But why were you doing a flip in the first place?" Edna asked in a monotone voice. Dante chuckled, scratching the back of his head.
"Well, I was falling, jeez. Had to make it more interesting than just staying still. At least I didn't fall on his whole body. That would'a hurt more." He joked even more. Edna rolled her eyes before turning around. "Whatever."
"You could've killed somebody!" Mikleo retaliated. Dante turned and looked at the seraph. "But I didn't, did I?" They then heard Sorey grunt in pain.
"Uhh, yeah you did." Edna joked as she went over and poked Sorey in the head with her umbrella. "Ow! Edna, what was that about?" He asked as he winced and held the spot she poked. "Oh, look at that. You're still alive." She bluntly said before opening her umbrella and walking away.
"Even so! It'll only be fair if you apologize to Sorey." Rose said. "Alright, alright. I'll apologize." Dante then turned to Sorey.
"Man, I'm really Sorey I kicked your head, in an awesome way." He said before mock-bowing. Lailah covered her mouth as she giggled. "I'm so sorry. It was just so good!"
"Really?" Edna deadpanned. Zaveid then snickered. "I gotta admit, he is good."
"Shut up. Nobody asked you." Edna told the man. They then decided to see how Sorey was doing. And Dante went off, going to wonder around since he was sure as hell that they wouldn't want to talk to him more.
"Hey, Sorey. You alright?" Rose asked, helping him up. "Yeah, I'm fine. But that really hurt." He answered, before turning to look at where the man had been, only to see that he was gone.
"Wait, how was he able to see and hear us?" Mikleo suddenly asked the others. Lailah's eyes widened before thinking for a moment.
"He must have had high resonance. Either that or-" She started, hesitating at the end. "He had a bit of malevolence in him." Zaveid cut in, crossing his arms.
"He's got half the malevolence of a hellion." Edna remarked as she shifted her umbrella on her shoulder.
"Really? Why don't we go chase him? And he still didn't apologize properly to Sorey." Rose mused as she put her hands on her hips.
"But he said he was Sorey!" Lailah part-protested and part-joked. Mikleo shook his head disapprovingly. "Did you really have to say that?"
"Wait, if we're gonna follow him, we're supposed to know where he went to." Sorey said, putting his hand to his chin as he thought.
"Hey Rosy! Why don't you go tell your guild about that guy so they can help us find him?" Zaveid suggested. Rose's eyes widened.
"Woah! You've got a point there, Zaveid! Let's go and tell them right now. I know Eguille is still in Pendrago, let's go back there and let him know." Rose exclaimed.
Meanwhile...
Dante had gotten hungry, and so he decided to look for a place to buy food, and maybe some civilization somewhere. After traveling a bit, he encounters what look like demons. Convincing himself that they were demons, he shot at them as he passed by, not bothering to even stop and confront them since he was craving for some pizza and strawberry sundae at that moment.
Then, he stopped at a huge gate and eyed it for a moment before entering. The guards didn't even bother to stop him or question him. 'Guards? More like armored statues.' He thought to himself as he walked. Walking around the fountain that spewed water towards him, which he dodged, he climbed up some stairs and went into the structure that had a sign that indicated that it was an inn.
Walking in, he immediately went to the bar. Many of the men looked at him funny, one of them holding the child with him close. He raised an eyebrow at this but shrugged it off. Putting his elbows on the bar and slumping forward, he looked at the barkeeper.
"Hey there. Do you happen to have some strawberry sundae?" He asked smugly. The barkeeper shook his head.
"Nope. We don't sell any of that here. You're gonna have to try some other place." He answered. Dante frowned. "Oh, come on! Could you just do me this one favor? Just one?"
"Well, if that's the case, you're gonna have to pay some gald first."
"Gald? Don't you mean gold?"
"No. I meant gald. Why gold?"
"I should ask you the same thing. It's pronounced gold, not gald." Dante turned around to look at the other men. "Right? Only morons would call it gald!"
"What did you say, Snowflake? Every single one of us calls it gald. I believe you're the only moron here, punk."
*One bar fight won by Dante later*
"Well, if I'm gonna be around here for a while, I'd better get some gald, as they call it. I heard there were some ruins holding some treasure around here. Maybe I could sell what I find there and sweet strawberry sundae, here I come."
MEANWHILE
Arriving at Pendrago after having to fight Hellions that blocked their way, and wondering whether or not Zaveid has been killing Hellions behind their back (having seen dead ones from far away), Sorey and the others immediately spotted Eguille standing by a post near the fountain. Rose enthusiastically ran up to him.
"Hey, Eguille!" She greeted as she stopped in front of him. Turning around, Eguille smiled down at Rose. "Hey there, Boss. Was there something you wanted?"He asked as the rest of the group caught up to Rose.
"Yeah. There was this guy we ran into somewhere I want you to inform the others about. We felt something off about him and decided to investigate but he escaped. The guy has white hair, blue eyes, a red coat, and carries a huge sword." She explained. The man thought for a moment.
"Well, I've just heard that a guy like that made a ruckus in the inn and that he left Pendrago awhile ago. Some people told me he was planning to go to a ruin or something so that he could buy...strawberry sundaes." He informed them. "I suggest you try searching the nearest ruins here."
"Alright. Thanks, Eguille." She said before waving him goodbye and telling the group. Sorey nodded as the seraphs stayed quiet.
"Nearby ruins, huh? Why don't we try searching Gaferis Ruins?" He suggested. Rose nodded. "Sounds like a good idea to me."
Somewhere in the middle of Lastonbell, a strange man, who seemed to have albinism, with a black coat and a mechanical looking sword and a huge revolver looked around frantically, while making sure to keep his left hand out of view.
MEANWHILE = Sorey and Co.
Meanwhile... = Dante
And then = ?
