Infernal Frustrations

Written by Nero on Sat Oct 21 2023

Intro:

Man, I swear sometimes this demon-hunting business drives me crazy. Every day feels like a constant battle against the forces of darkness, and it's starting to take its toll on me. But hey, what can you do when you're one of the few people capable of kicking some demonic ass? It's not like I can just walk away from all this chaos. So here I am again, venting my frustrations in this damn journal.

The Never-Ending Battle

I thought after that whole mess with Urizen and Vergil things would calm down a bit. Boy was I wrong! Demons seem to be popping up left and right lately, as if they've got nothing better to do than ruin everyone's day. And who has to deal with them? Yours truly – Nero Sparda.

It seems like every time there's even a hint of trouble brewing in Red Grave City or anywhere else for that matter, Dante is off gallivanting somewhere doing god knows what while leaving me behind to clean up his messes. Don't get me wrong; he may be my old man but sometimes he really gets under my skin.

A Short Fuse

I never used to have such anger issues before all this demon hunting started consuming my life. Sure, I've always been hot-headed by nature but lately it feels like everything sets me off - demons trying to kill innocent people? Pisses me off! Running out of pizza at Devil May Cry headquarters? That too pisses-me-off!

But maybe there's more than meets the eye when it comes to these sudden bursts of rage within myself... Maybe deep down inside it’s because losing Kyrie hurts so much that any threat towards her triggers something dark within me…Dammit!

Finding Balance

Despite all the frustration and anger boiling inside of me (which trust me is no easy feat), there are moments where peace finds its way to my heart. Caring for those orphans that live with me and Kyrie has brought a sense of purpose into my life, something beyond just slaying demons. These kids look up to me, and it's on me to be their protector.

I never thought I'd find solace in taking care of others. But seeing the smiles on their faces and knowing that they're safe under our roof gives me a reason to keep fighting. It reminds me why I do what I do - not just for revenge or personal gain but also for the sake of protecting those who can't protect themselves.

The Weight We Carry

Being Nero Sparda isn't an easy burden to bear either. Yeah, you heard right – Sparda! Turns out old Vergil is actually my dad; guess that explains where all these demonic powers come from... But being part-demon doesn’t make things any easier.

There's this constant struggle within myself between embracing my demon side and staying true to the human side of who I am. Sometimes it feels like two conflicting forces are tearing at each other inside of me, threatening to rip apart everything I hold dear.

But amidst this internal turmoil, there is strength in knowing that even though we may have demon blood coursing through our veins, we can still choose how we use those powers – whether it be for good or evil. And let me tell you one thing: nothing will ever make us lose sight of what truly matters - family!

Never Surrender

So here's the deal: no matter how frustrating this whole demon-hunting gig gets (and trust me when I say it does get pretty damn infuriating), giving up is not an option for someone like Nero Sparda!

Sure there are times when doubt starts creeping in; moments where defeat seems inevitable…but then something clicks inside my head– reminding myself about all those innocent lives hanging by a thread…those precious children counting on me to keep them safe. That's all the motivation I need to push forward and face whatever hellish nightmare comes my way.

Final Thoughts

So, as I close this journal entry, let it be known that Nero Sparda won't back down from any challenge. Yeah, demons might get under my skin; they may even try to break me...but I'll never let them win!

This world needs someone like me – someone who refuses to give in when things go south. So bring it on! Bring your worst because Nero Sparda is ready for anything you throw at him. And trust me when I say this: Hell hath no fury like a half-demon with an infernal determination burning in his soul!
