DXD: Reincarnated as Vergil Sparda

I didn't deserve it.

Everything I've suffered and this is how it all ends?

If only I had a little more time…. Maybe things hadn't ended like this….

But I was weak, I couldn't protect her…. I did not have the power to do it and she had to pay… my beloved mother…. I am sorry so much.

It was like a day like any other, I was getting ready to go to school and you were waiting for me downstairs with breakfast ready… always with a smile despite all the problems we had due to the actions of that bastard.

Like a sane person, he borrows money from a dangerous mob so he can pay for his drinks and gamble at the casino, without worrying about his family and his expenses.

And worst of all is that the bastard escaped ... he fled like a coward, leaving us both to chance, without money and receiving constant threats, fearing our safety every day.

He did everything I could ... work wherever, whatever, to be able to get rid of this without you knowing.

Seeing you every day as you came home from work at night, so tired, without strength, but when you saw me you always smiled as if nothing was happening and telling me that everything would be fine.

But I knew in my conscience that we would not achieve it, that the day when everything would end was near…. There was no way to escape, we were under surveillance 24 hours a day.

And then that day came, I was coming home after a tired day at school, it was night there were not many people on the street.

When I opened the door I noticed that the room was dark, you weren't waiting for me like always, at that moment I already knew that something bad was going to happen.

When I entered the kitchen I saw you, sitting in a chair tied with a rope, your mouth was covered, but what scared me the most is that your face was bloody ... you had wounds on your arms and legs ... it seemed that you had them they had done with a knife.

"..M-Mother .."

Whisper as if what I was seeing was a nightmare, I quickly ran towards you trying to untie you.

"I wouldn't do that if I was you"

I heard someone behind me and turned my gaze quickly, only to find a guy dressed in black from head to toe, I couldn't see his face .. he was hooded.

"W-Who are you? Why are you doing this?"

I said fearfully, the guy was slowly approaching…. I placed myself in front of my mother, protecting her with my body.

"It's nothing personal boy, it's just business"

He speak nonchalantly, as if he doesn't care about taking people's lives, as if it's normal in his life.

"The guy from the mob sent you, right? Give us a little more time, we are innocent, we have nothing to do with this, my bastard father was the one who made the deal "

I talked trying to reason with the guy, at the same time thinking of a way out of this, looking around if there is any weapon with which I can defend myself.

"Regarding your father, I will take care of him, but the boss wants to leave no loose ends"

He answered, he was already a few steps away from me when I noticed that next to me there was a knife on the counter, I quickly grabbed it and tried to cut his throat, but the guy had already predicted my action, he dodged it and with his knee and he hit me in the abdomen which took my breath away, I dropped the knife and got on my knees cradling my abdomen and trying to breathe again.

"You shouldn't have done that, it's useless, don't put up any resistance, I want to finish this job quickly"

Said the guy undeterred by my attempt to defend myself, he punched me in the jaw and then another and another…. I no longer put up resistance, I had no strength, my mink was clouding red due to the blood that flowed from my face.

"Your time has come boy, I have put an explosive in the house, it will explode in 3 minutes there is no escape, blame your father for doing this"

He spoke nonchalantly and walked out the door quickly. I already knew that this was the end, I tried to crawl towards you wanting to touch your hand…. Wanting to see your face for the last time.

"I-I'm sorry mother…. I-I've been weak… I couldn't protect you… i-if this had been different…. i-if only I had more… power "

I closed my eyes waiting for my end, when I heard the explosion I could no longer feel anything…. I'm already dead? Is this heaven ... or am i in hell? When I opened my eyes I could only see everything black, there was nothing around.

I was there I don't know how long… waiting for something to happen…. Remembering the old days ... remembering you ... if only things had been different .... When suddenly I hear a voice ...

'Fool, you really are a fool ...'

"W-what? Who are you?! Show yourself"

'You couldn't protect her ... you could have done more ...'

"What did you want me to do ?! I didn't have the strength! ... I didn't have the power"

'If you had the power… what would you do? ... '

"I would have killed him with my own hands, I would have annihilated all the cursed ones ... but I was weak, I didn't have the strength to do it"

'You're right ... you're weak ...'

"... You don't need to repeat it"

'… By now you should know… Right?'

"…Yes"

'The power…'

"It controls everything"

'Without power…'

"You can't protect anything"

'Not even…'

"To yourself"

'... Then I'll give you power ... Don't disappoint me'

I could not hear anything else and I only saw a light that blinded me and I fell into a dream that I did not know if I would wake up.

'... A storm is approaching ...'
