2000 years ago, a war broke out between humans and the demon world. The legendary demon swordsman of the demon world, Sparda, betrayed his own kind to protect humanity, defeated the Demon World Emperor with his sword, and sealed the demon world. He maintained the seal between the demon world and the human world until his death. · While in love with Eva (a human woman), his two children were born. · The two children were named Dante and Vergil. · More than twenty years ago, Dante's mother perished along with a demon, and his older brother was taken by demons. · As he grew up, Dante started Devil May Cry (a demon hunter agency) on his own. As a professional demon hunter, Dante one day encountered a woman in black, who introduced herself as Trish. She bore a striking resemblance to Dante's deceased mother. · Trish told Dante that the Demon World Emperor Mundus was attempting to revive himself and asked Dante to go to an island called Materias to stop Mundus's awakening. · Arriving on the island, Dante and Trish split up. Dante successively encountered and defeated Mundus's two main henchmen—the Phantom Spider and the Gryphon. Afterwards, Dante encountered a mysterious yet familiar black knight—Nelo Angelo. In their duel, the black knight's moves and style were remarkably similar to Dante's. In the end, Dante defeated him with his formidable power. The defeated black knight's demonic energy dissipated and disappeared, leaving behind half of a jeweled necklace that matched the one Dante wore. · Dante recalled the origin of the necklaces and realized that this black knight was his long-lost older brother. · The two necklace halves combined, awakening the demon swordsman power within Dante, and the sword in Dante's hand transformed into his father Sparda's demon sword. · In the demon world, when Dante battled a nightmare weapon, he was ambushed by Trish and discovered that Trish had actually been created by the Demon World Emperor Mundus to lure Dante. · At a critical moment, Dante saved Trish, which moved her deeply. · When Dante reached the Demon World Emperor's hall, he found Mundus holding Trish hostage. Mundus ambushed Dante, striking him. · At this same critical moment, Trish suddenly jumped in to shield Dante from Mundus's attack, falling down. · Dante awakened his full demonic power, taking on the form of his father, and engaged in a final battle with Mundus. He ultimately defeated him and placed the demon sword and the necklace beside Trish, hoping they would protect her.· Mundus chased out from the demon world, and Dante engaged him in a decisive battle inside the castle. Eventually, Trish revived and arrived to assist Dante in defeating Mundus. · The two escaped the exploding island by plane. Afterwards, Dante renamed the demon hunter agency—Devil Never Cry—and managed it together with Trish. Story differences: The script of Devil May Cry 1 can be said to be the original script of Devil May Cry, with no so-called plans for a sequel. Therefore, it is straightforward from beginning to end. In the storyline of Devil May Cry 1, there are the following points that differ from later settings. 1: Sparda's death. The beginning of Devil May Cry 1 states that Sparda has died. 2: Vergil's disappearance. In the storyline of Devil May Cry 1, it is mentioned that Vergil was taken by monsters as a child and remained in the demon world, never returning (the novel does not count). 3: Weapon setting. In the storyline of Devil May Cry 1, Dante is the only successor of his father Sparda, and his weapon is only his father's Force Sword (later awakened as Sparda). In the end, Dante gives it to Trish, while he uses the in-game Alastor. ---------------------------- · Devil May Cry 2 · Chinese name: 恶魔猎人2 / 鬼泣2 · Official name: Devil May Cry 2 · Japanese name: デビル メイ クライ 2 · Producer: Tsuyoshi Tanaka · Released: PS2 platform · Versions: Japanese / English / Traditional Chinese Story Summary: Main characters: Dante, Lucia, Matier, Arius.
