Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Demonic Decedents. Enjoy the 900-word chapter. I don't own DMC, Hideki Kamiya, Capcom and a few others do.
Seth left nothing but dead Draugr behind him, he brushed off his jacket and then leaned on a torn apart car.
"Hmm…" Seth said before 2 more Draugr before a hail of gunfire cut them both down.
"I thought you were taking another path." Seth, he knew without looking that it was Lady.
"We still have to have that talk." She said, Seth planted Vendetta into the ground and leaned on it.
"And what do we have left to talk about? I told you, I don't know about my past… All I know is it involves Dante." Seth said, Lady huffed and walked closer.
"And yet your half demon… Sparda's sons were the only half devils." Lady pointed out, Seth nodded and leaned on his sword.
"You want to have a history lesson and question who I am…. Or you want to kill the ugly eyesore that's sitting in its throne at the top of the city?" Seth asked, Lady sighed and walked past him.
"I'm asking Dante when we get back." Lady said, Seth shrugged and leaned on Vendetta one last time before he put it onto his back once more.
"Whatever floats your boat… You know Grendel probably has an army of these guys… Every Devil I fight seems to be like that… Just like the other who went after my sister." Seth said, Lady nodded.
"So, we just clear our way through them till we get to Grendel." Lady said, Seth shook his head and looked to the side.
"No, that will take too long and we have no idea if Grendel will run or not… What we need to do is corner him… Get his back to the wall so he can't handle us… Once we do that… The rest of the Draugr will retreat… Their master will be gone, without their master, they have no leadership." Seth said, Lady nodded.
"You kill the head of an army and they have no leadership…. What about Nidhogg?" Lady asked, Seth frowned and turned to her.
"Can you handle that big rattlesnake? I'm going to find Grendel and force him to fight me." Seth asked, he went to move before Lady stopped him.
"Why do I have to handle him while you handle that ugly freak of a Demon Lord?" Lady asked, she crossed her arms.
"Because based on last time, only I will be able to handle him... I'm going to draw him out… Plus that giant earthworm is going to try and block our way out of the town… He's not so tough…. Besides…" Seth said before he walked past Lady.
"It doesn't really affect our paycheck who fights who… So then… You have fun… I'll see you after I get back." Seth said before he quickly drew Damnation and shot 2 more Draugr which tried to flank him.
"I really hate when they do things like this…" Lady muttered before the Demon in question popped out of the ground.
Lady saw a squadron of the Harpy like demons, he shot one before grabbing onto another which flew him into the city, trying to shake him free.
"I'm getting hazard pay for this…" Lady joked before she turned her launcher at the Draugr and fired a missile before the massive Demon General lunged at her, fangs ready to skewer her like a hors d'oeuvre.
(With Seth)
Seth rolled and turned and shot the other Harpy through the head before he blew the smoke off the demonic revolver before he put it on his waist hostler.
"Hmm… Now, if I was a giant demonic ogre who's bloodthirsty enough to rampage through an entire town…" Seth said before a massive demonic mace whistled through the air.
Seth flipped through the air and slid under the weapon to see a massive hulking brute of a monster which had layers of teeth and black and red armor that looked like it was covered in a thousand blades and spikes, horns like a crown grew from its head.
"A son of Sparda… And yet not the one who fought the Demon Emperor Mundus… Nor the other who walks the island where the emperor now slumbers." The figure said, Seth chuckled and landed on a car which looked like it had been torn, beaten and then trampled into scrap.
"Ah… You must be Grendel… I see the family resemblance… Wait… What did you call me?" Seth asked as Grendel tore his mace out of the ground.
"You are a decedent of the Devil General Sparda…. And yet you have no idea of your heritage?" Grendel asked, Seth shrugged and pulled Vendetta from his back.
"Maybe we should discuss this like reasonable adults… Nah, this is more fun." Seth joked before he lunged at Grendel. He had answers and Seth wanted them.
"Prepare to meet your father, child!" Grendel yelled and swung at Seth who smirked.
Author Notes
Phew, another chapter done! I apologize for this chapter being late, other stories and all… With DMC 5 about to come out, I'm more hyped then ever for this story… Next chapter will be on next Thursday or so and will show Seth fighting Grendel and Lady fighting. I also want to point out some of the chapters will be a bit late. Until next chapter, Lighting Wolf out!
