Getting to the place where the first round takes place | 13: Devil's Dalliance DMC: Devil May Cry Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
At the very beginning, turn around and jump onto an upper balcony (screen above). Here, look for a Lost Soul.
BONUS MISSION: Turn to platforms on left, shown on the 1st screen. Try to reach the bigger one, using Angel Boost and Angel Lift. Here you find Secret Door which you can open with Ivory Key and begin a bonus mission Shenanigans (2nd screen). This mission is a standard battle where you have to defeat three strong enemies. Start from the Witch, pulling her to you if you can (after destroying her force field). Then use Aquila to stop Ghost Rage for a while and attack Blood Rage in the meantime. Don't let yourself get hit, because you can't heal.
Get interested in platforms on right from the beginning place. Place yourself (screen above) and use Angel Lift to catch a Boost Ring. Don't forget about pressing a jump button. Then use Angel Lift again to get onto a bigger platform with Gold Key. After taking the key return to the beginning location, using Angel Boost.
If you need, you can use nearby Divinity Statue. Head for main stairs, but before you use them, check an area underneath it, where you find a Lost Soul. Then go upstairs.
Stand on a big plate. You have to do the same as in the case of red crystals in the floor what is using a Stomp attack of Eryx (screen above).
You'll run into a first test from a crazy TV show "The Devil has Talent". You have to use skillfully angel and demon modes to move on colorful tiles. On red ones activate demon mode, on blue ones angel mode. As the tiles are next to one another, it's best to jump into the new areas what gives you time to activate proper mode in the flight.
Move forward, using demon mode. When you reach crossroads turn right. Jump to the small platform on which you have to use angel mode. Turn right, make two jumps, firstly on platform with red tiles (demon) and then on one with blue tiles (angel). At the end use Angel Boost to reach a bigger platform. Here you find another Lost Soul.
Return to the beginning place and choose the left path. At first you have to use demon mode, but then you'll be forced to switch on a angel mode. You have to reach a bigger platform where you have to survive the first round.
