As Dante chases after Vergil, he meets a large demon named Beowulf, who wants to get revenge on Sparda's betrayal of demons by killing his children. However, Dante blinds him by cutting out his other eye, so Beowulf runs away and looks for Vergil. The second time Dante and Vergil meet, Vergil kills Beowulf and acquires a new weapon to fight Dante with. Before the fight finishes, they are interrupted by Mary and Jester. It turns out that Jester was Arkham the whole time. Arkham then uses the twins' amulet and sheds blood of his own daughter, Mary, the daughter of the priestess, to break Sparda's seal. This transforms the tower and unlocks portal to the demon world. Arkham wishes to go to them demon world to take the Force Edge, Sparda's sword, to take Sparda's power and rule over a demon-infested earth.
