Everything was calm, the Demonic One-Eyed, as Dante named it, was reasonably simple, actually comical that the dungeon's final boss was so straightforward. It simply dodged and struck when it saw an opportunity, actually too simple.
Dante was tired of following the same irritating formula and began using the One-Eyed to polish his skills.
Yes...
At this moment, Dante was testing fire spells... On an intermediate rank demonic creation... but it turned into a skills-whetting stone...
"I can't believe this," Nagasawa said, watching Dante play football with the creature's head.
"Hey, want to try too?" He shouted, waving with a smile and kicking the eye towards Nagasawa. The eye was too dazed and dizzy to react anymore.
Nagasawa started to laugh lightly and juggled the eye with her feet, then sent it back to Dante, who hit it with the side of his sword as if playing baseball...
Perhaps 'childish' isn't the word, but if anyone saw such a scene, they might think they were two demonic children playing with a demonic beast, well... it wasn't entirely untrue, as Dante and Naga had absorbed various malefic energies during their journey... but it was still extremely childish to see a being that should be the pinnacle of the dungeon... well, being treated like a toy ball.
[Consume] The eye grunted and began to change.
"Looks like we annoyed him," Dante said with a mocking smile as he used the Devil Durandal as support.
"Hahaha, took longer than I thought," Nagasawa laughed as she twirled the nunchakus.
Clep Clep Clep
Dante clapped his hands as he watched the eye slowly grow larger, consuming all the tentacles.
"Let's go, big guy! Reveal your final form! This is boring!" Dante shouted, using his hands to "amp up the volume."
"Poison won't work." Nagasawa commented, and Dante pointed to the eye, "Don't worry, I found the weak spot." Dante said with a smile, and Nagasawa looked puzzled.
"You did?"
"Of course, damn it, look at the size of that eye. Stick the sword in deep, and this damn thing will explode like fireworks HAHAHA" Dante laughed. "Damn, it's obviously the center!" Dante shouted.
This is what boredom does to a warrior... turns him into a barbarian in front of a disappointing enemy.
"Lilith," Dante said as the Woman looked at him, she analyzed him thoroughly, and a second later, she put her hand on one of her horns and broke it, subsequently, she began to walk towards Dante and thrust the horn into his chest, he had time to react, but couldn't, it was as if he were completely paralyzed.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Dante screamed, a sharp pain engulfed his entire body, his body burned with pain as if he were melting in lava.
As Dante fell in pain, Lilith's spirit walked to one side of the combat arena and began to merge all the energy of the Demonic Eye that was in the air, Nagasawa couldn't move, she wanted to help Dante, but nothing could be done, she couldn't do anything, not even using all her strength.
Lilith raised her hands, and a coffin rose from the ground, a secret chamber opened, and a body came flying from the ground.
Dante looked into Lilith's eyes that slightly curved, he felt a strange sensation... as if this were... familiar?
"Re- Release me!" Dante tried to shout, but nothing mattered.
Dante watched as Lilith approached again, trembling with fear. He didn't want to feel that pain again. But time stood still for him when he saw the body Lilith brought...
The body of a woman, a woman Dante knew from the previous paintings, the body of Eva.
Lilith raised her hands, and the preserved body of Eva began to disintegrate, turning into nothing but one thing... Blood.
Lilith's ethereal body began to take on a physical form, and she held Dante's face, then she mixed her own blood with Eva's and forcefully injected all the blood into him.
Dante felt as if he were drinking poison, how could he not? Eva was a divine creation from God, after Adam, she was the Progenitor of Humans, both had the same status, and Lilith was a demon goddess, a divine being who fell into hell.
"!@#&$!@$" He said and disappeared as Dante fell to his knees on the ground, trying to vomit but nothing came out. His body began to combust and burn like the flames of hell.
Everything turned black for him for a second, everything was complete chaos, he was completely insane, he began to burn so much that he started punching his own head to lose consciousness, Lilith's horn came out of his body, he fell forward and began convulsing.
Nagasawa still couldn't get up and began crawling towards Dante, but her hands started to fail, and she passed out.

N/a: Hey, my dear readers, the chapters will be reduced for some time. I'm having health issues and can't focus on writing the chapters. I'll schedule only one chapter per day for now. I hope you understand. As soon as I recover, I'll resume with two chapters per day as usual. Thank you for reading!
PS: Please, I know it's annoying to have to ask this, but I would like you to evaluate the work. We're already in chapter 86, I know you like her, you wouldn't come here! This helps a lot and motivates me to keep bringing Dante's story! Thanks!
