The Forgotten Sin

The Rusted Knight

I pull away quickly noticing what I had just did. I just met Meliodas and I treat him like I knew him for a long time. Speaking of that I'm still confused why he does seem familiar. Suddenly the tavern starts to shake and I look outside to see that we're..in the air?!
"To the next village we go!" Meliodas shouts loudly.

-timu skipu-

Another turbulence signals that we have made it to the next village. Meliodas caught me in a very awkward position which made me slap him after words.
"Hey Y/N do you mind going out into the village and telling people about the tavern?" Meliodas asks while he rummages around behind the counter.
"Sure thing!" I reply swinging my F/C
Cloak over me shoulders and putting the hood on. I walk outside with my hands in my pockets and look around.
'Lots of people..good thing I put on my cloak'. I spread the news about the tavern and quickly walk back.when I get back the tavern is already packed with people and I take off my cloak.
"Nice job!" Meliodas shouts from behind the counter. I smile and sit down at the counter.
"Hey ya mind helping with something else?"
I look up,"like what?" I ask.
"You can be a waitress!" He says handing me some clothes. I look at the clothes and they seemed a little..showy.
"A-alright." I say unsure if I should or not. I walk to the room to put on the "uniform" and like I thought, it was REALLY showy. Meliodas walks in moments later with a satisfied smile.
"I don't know if I wanna wear this.." I saw as he looks me up and down.
"Don't worry!" He says," You'll look good!" He says giving me a closed eyed smile. Hawk shakes his head in dismay. "I'm sorry his tastes are really showing."
"Cmon let's get to work!" Meliodas says rushing down the stairs. I walk down as well and some of the guys are already eyeing me. My face turns red and I just try and focus on the work.
I manage to listen in on some interesting conversations but one catches my ears the most. The Wandering Rust Knight. Meliodas gives me a plate of food and I hand it to the guys. As expected the spit out the food in disgust.
"What is this?!" One of them shouts. I keep a straight posture. Meliodas walks over to my side.
"Well you didn't say specifically what you wanted." He replies coolly.
"You pickin a fight with us?!" The buff one shouts at Meliodas.
"W-watch it! He's got a sword!"another says wearily. Meliodas snaps his fingers his face isn't the usual happy one. "Clean this up." He says and glances behind him. Hawk walks over mumbling to himself,"what is it this time?" He asks unenthusiastically.
"You know," Hawk starts talking,"I deserve better scraps than this." Hawk mutters as he finishes the scraps.
"Hey if any of you want I can make roast pig?it only takes a cooking spit." Meliodas says looking over at the three men.
"These scraps are out of this world!!" Hawk says, this time enthusiastically.
"Heh..I'm not hungry anymore." One of them reply before sitting back down.
"How about another drink?I travel a lot so I have the best stash of alcohol around!"
"Alright then give me a tasty drink!"
As Meliodas walks back to the counter I hear the conversation again. I look to see Meliodas is even listening.
"Seven Deadly Sins..."I murmur under my breath. I look down to see the mark on my chest is slightly showing and quickly put my hand on it. I remember Meliodas asking about it but I guess he forgot about it, hopefully. Little did I know he was watching me wondering why I had covered 'it' up.
Then the bustling in the tavern stopped as loud thuds could be heard coming from outside.
Meliodas looked up just when the rust knight broke in. Everyone in the tavern rushed out with shrieks and cries. He jumps over the counter and walks in front of the rust knight.
"Who are you?" He asked. Just then after the small silence the rust knight fell backwards and the helmet fell off.
My eyes widened as I noticed who it was but I didn't say a word.
