For the first fight you have to fight against two lovers. Summon Phantasmaraneae to help eliminate them.

Enchantment #1
Approach the building hosting MC Enzo’s show to unlock this Watch MC Enzo’s show on the Giant Monitor enchantment.
Verse #2
Advance to the next cutscene to join the next battle. You have to fight against flying enemies called Lacunosus. They can be incapacitated by Phantasmaraneae’s web, allowing you to easily hit them. Eliminate all other enemies to continue.
Tears of Blood of Umbra – Crow
Go to the circular building to find the crow sitting on top. Depending on where you approach it, it will either fly left (circle) or right (straight). The easiest way is to get it to fly to the left so it circles and you can quickly intercept it.
Umbran Tears of Blood – Cat / Hex #2
There is a parking lot right next to the round building where the cat is. Use Demon Pulse to quickly chase and chase the cat. You can also destroy the trucks that are in the way.
You can use Phantasmaraneae to scare the cats three times to unlock them Scare stray cats with hell demons 3 times enchantment.
Map Pack #1
At the very back right of the parking lot you will find a pack of maps.

Usurer #1
Go to the building with burning upper floors near the circular building where you will find a Wriggle carrying a #3 Witch Heart Fragment.
Verse #3
Go to the building with the blue square billboard and climb it. You will find the portal to verse #3. In this challenge you will have to use Phantasmaraneae’s massive web and then burn the enemies caught in it. You must do this eight times to complete the challenge, then you will be rewarded with a Moon Pearl Fragment.
Verse #4
Move further into the city to another burning part. Use Phantasmaraneae to climb the giant water tank on top of the building to put out the flames and gain access to the other side. As you cross, the next encounter will ambush you. Remove them to complete the verse.
Verse #5
From the point where you entered the previous verse, make a left U-turn to see another portal that was visible from the area before. In this verse, you cannot use torture attacks, so you must activate witch time by dodging perfectly. You can also use your summoning during witch time to kill the enemies quickly. Completing the challenge will reward you with a #4 Witch Heart Fragment.
The Gates of Hell
Head through the foggy streets to the next area. On the right you will find another entrance to The Gates of Hell to drop by and buy items or accessories.
Verse #6 / Enchantment #3
The next verse comes right after the short cutscene where Bayonetta hears Viola’s voice. Asperatus will burst out of the billboard on the left. Watch his charge and plan your dodges to get free hits in Witch Time. Watch out for his ground slam attack when he jumps high; A green circle will appear on the ground where it will land.
You can also use the Massive Web Attack and if you successfully run it three times, it will unlock Stop Aspertus three times with Massive Web enchantment.
Verse #7 / Enchantment #4 and #5
This verse lets you ride Phantasmaraneae through the roofs of the buildings while fighting enemies. When you get to the top of a building that oversees two helipads, first go to the upright helipad on the right to get a #5 Witch Heart Fragment, then move on to the other helipad.
You’ll reach a winding road with two of those purple trees. Approach them to unlock them Take a specific path while riding Phantasmaraneae enchantment.
Keep moving through the buildings while being chased by another giant homunculus. You also need to do some QTEs along the way, especially during the swinging part. If you manage to get to the edge of the run without falling into the clouds, you’ll unlock it Ride Phantasmaraneae without falling into pits or clouds of obliteration enchantment.
Figure Box #2
After the cutscene, turn around and you’ll see a cube on the rubble. Press on it to reveal a platform. Climb the platforms in front of you to get the figure box.
Tears of Blood of Umbra – Toad
Just as you are about to reach the huge buildings, go to the rubble on the left and you will hear croaking noises. The toad is just somewhere in the middle of the rubble.
Verse #8
This verse has a different pannus, so avoid using your summon to hit it.
After killing the Pannus, a cutscene will show the Twilight Wanderer Strider. It’s quite a powerful and agile enemy that can destroy your summon in one hit. To defeat it, it’s best to use your witch time and only use your summon while inside. Pull them back immediately once you get back to normal time to avoid getting hit.
Once you manage to subdue it, it will be empowered by moonlight and enter its second phase where the battle will take place on the side of the building. Continue using the same technique until you enter another cutscene where Bayonetta will eventually subdue it, but it will flee.
