Before the Nightmare is a great prequel novel to DMC5 because it very effortlessly destroys me about Vergil all over again just by casually saying these two things:

That Mundus found Vergil first before Dante, and so Vergil had been fighting Mundus’ forces for literal years by himself (also lmao @ Mundus basically going “OH SHIT OH FUCK THEY’RE GONNA HUNT ME DOWN AND KILL ME QUICK I GOTTA DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS AAAAA” great plan you had here fuckface)

And that Vergil would have killed Mundus if not for his previous fight with Dante

#devil may cry #lore post #before the nightmare #there's also the whole 'even as nelo angelo vergil refused to obey mundus #until he had his amulet returned to him' thing which makes me cackle #mundus really had absolutely no control over anything #and was just in a constant frantic state of 'shit shit shit I fucked up how do I fix this'#also special shoutout to the confirmation that dante used a fragment of yamato #to escape from hell back in dmc2
