Jake tossed Vergil against a wall. The nephelim has drawn his sword, but jake seems to have a grip on him that gives him the full advantage during the battle.

"You cannot escape", Jake states. "See, I am the archdemon of lust and hedonism. When someone sleeps with me, I take something from them. I took something from your brother. I took power from him, the moment he shared an orgasm with me. The moment he came inside me. And the thing about twin nephelims is, what works against your brother, works against you too"

Vergil felt ashamed for his brother, but decided to focus on that later. He unseathed Yamato, his katana and rushed at the archdemon.

Jake formed a sphere of purple smoke in his hands and tossed it against the nephelim. Vergil was once more tossed against the wall, shattering a big chunk of it. He fell on the ground, coughing blood.

"I am no match for him", the nephelim admitted silently. Suddenly, Jake appeared above him, Yamato in hand. The archdemon picked up the injured nephelim, who struggled but to no avail.

"Your nephilim powers truly don't have any effect on me whatsoever", the archdemon pointed out amused. "In that case, I only have need for your brother", he added as he buried the katana deep in the nephilim's abdomen. Then he took it out, and released the nephilim who fell on his knees, desperately trying to hold on to his intestines which were dripping from his grave wound.

"Don't worry though", Jake added as he positioned himself behind the nephilim. "You are the lucky one. What I will do to him is way worse than death". And with that, he slit Vergil's throat. Blood sputtered from the nephilim, as his hands fell on the ground, and his guts poured into the ground. Seconds later, his lifeless body made a thud hitting the ground. Vergil, now a corpse around his fallen comrades, was no more. Jake, now standing victorious among his minions who spread death, was one step closer to his victory.

All Dante could do now was twitch whenever he was close to cumming. His body had long abandoned him. Only tears could come out of his eyes. In his mind, pictures started showing. Pictures he didn't remember, but was sure he had seen before. A beautiful blond woman, having tea in a garden as two children played on the grass. Then the same woman, mauled to death by a demon, blood all around her, and the two children crying. What was this? Was this part of his childhood? Were the missing years coming back to him?

Jake suddenly entered the room.

"How is it going?", he asked Alexander.

"Per your instructions sir", Alexander responded.

"Bring me the pliers", Jake ordered. Minutes later, Alexander returned with a pair of pliers and handed them over. Jake took them and pulled out one of Dante's nails. Dante let out a moan and twitched, but his body was completely devastated from Alexander's torture.

In his dream, Dante still saw the same images. Besides the pain from his nails getting picked off again and again, He had lost all contact with the outside world. Suddenly, he started remembering. His mother. Vergil. There was a time when they lived happily. Peacefully. Until Mundus changed it all. Until he killed their mother. The events of that day rushed in his mind like an avalanche.

Jake felt the wall in Dante's mind getting weaker. "Yes, remember Dante", Jake happily exclaimed. "Remeber your history, and soon, ytou will remeber that incident. The one I want you to remember. The one that will awaken my power".

Dante started getting spasms as the memories flooded his brain. Jake pulled out one more nail, but Dante didn't even flinch. He couldn't feel anything anymore.

Jake put down the pliers. "Let those memories sink in for now", Jake decided. "We will continue tomorrow".

"As you wish, Master", Alexander complied.

"Today was a great day Alexander", Jake stated. "Today the road to victory was laid before us, and the first steps were taken. I will celebrate".

"Would you like me to bring up slaves?", Alexander offered?

Jake paused for a few minutes. "No", he replied. "I have come to like you a bit. Come to my room alone. YOU will entertain me tonight".
