Plot remainder: Some dude falls in love with a singer he manages at first sight and then he proposes two days after. Since psychos are the common rule in this place, she accepts.
The guy doesn't even suspect that there's something weird about accepting a wedding proposal two days after meeting someone either, but in his defense, the guy isn't the full quid: two years of marriage in which we learn nothing about how the wife personality is like, how the guy treats her, how the town takes it, or anything really, the guy hears the door of his house and instead of thinking "oh, it must be my wife, you know the one I marry two years ago and the only other person with a key to my house" thinks it's a robber and grabs a loaded shotgun that he had just hanging in the wall and shots the wife at first sight, no warnings or anything. A genius, right?
But that isn't as preposterous as what's next to happen: turns out that the wife had already foreseen that the idiot was going to kill her and left a letter saying that "a guy" is going to help him bring her back, without cluing the guy about who the guy is, how is it possible to bring her back to life or, you know, the demonic plot about Asmodeus the king of hell hunting her down because she's the leader of the rebellion. A tiny detail, right?
I mean, the guy as stupid as he might be was going to find out eventually. Anyways, "the guy" (Asmodeus), shows up saying that now to bring the wife back he needs to summon and pimp a bunch of succubus to later kill them.
That's supposed to be sad and morally conflicting but it isn't because; first, they're flatter than a plain with literally twenty dialogues less than ten lines long.
Secondly, to pimp them one has to avoid having any emotional bounds, and if you had any is completely dissever.
Thirdly, because not only killing them feels more like possessing that assassination because unlike the previous game where there was a whole decorum in the killing scene, detailing how he brutally kill his daughters specifically depending on their race and how they beg for their lives in "my lovely wife" there's only a ratty, jerky animation of the guy thrusting a dagger towards a poorly drawn heart that shatters on touch with the blade, but also because one can summon another succubus exactly like the one that he just killed. EXACTLY. Hell, it must be the same one. 2/10
