Summary
After narrowly escaping the Demon World, an injured and weakened Vergil finds himself with a whole new set of problems when he discovers a boy he cannot deny is his son. Trying to hide from any demons that might be pursuing him while also figuring out how to raise a child with issues of his own, Vergil knows he's in way over his head.
But Nero is his son and his responsibility. Learning to live with each other may not be easy, but Vergil is determined to make it work. He's never shied away from a challenge, and he refuses to let fatherhood be the one he fails at- especially when Vergil knows better than anyone the horrible fate that lies before a child with no one to protect him.

Summary
Their family may not exactly be functional, but Vergil, Dante, and Nero are making things work the best they can. When Nero decides he wants to go to school, it presents Vergil with new challenges in his journey of fatherhood: Relearning life without a child by his side, accepting he can't always protect his son, and, hardest of all, learning to let Nero go.
But in the midst of this, Vergil's own traumatic childhood threatens his relationships with his son and brother. That coupled with an ever-growing threat lurking over the family may finally lead to the downfall they've been fighting so desperately against from the start.
