Where are They? |Seven Deadly Sins|

Episode 5: Season 3

"I've been wondering about something, ever since we were released from the seal, it feels like something has changed. Right Zeldris?" The Commandment of Faith asked the Commandment of Piety. She looked over at him from her flouting position.

"Yeah, I can sense it to. The magical power that flowed abundantly in Britannia 3000 years ago had dried out." Zeldris looked out into the distance. He could feel her magical energy.  He wanted her back here. He raised his left hand, "No wonder it's taking so long for us to regain ours.

"Odd considering that power started the war between the Five Races in ht first place." Monspiet, the Commandment of Reticence, mentioned.

"No, things haven't become that disappointing." Fraudrin, Commandment of Selflessness said.

"Hey, you there!" Yelled a voice from below the weird plant. The Commandment of Purity looked down from where she stood. "Where'd you poachers come from? This is our turf, you know!"

"Humans?" The Commandment of Faith asked with a bored tone. Her head rested on arms that  laid on the darkness around her.

"I know why you are here! You are here because Edinburgh's rich with high-quality stones for glassmaking."  The first miner said, he had a cloth over his head.

"If you really want to mine, you'll have to give us a cut!" The second miner said. He was leaning against the pickax. 

"Magical power once flowed through the earth, but now flowed over into the wildlife and plants that exist here over the past 3000 years. The being that once run rampant in this land has each been absorbing it." The Commandment of Selflessness that possessed Drafus said.

"Hey, you guys! Did you hear what we're saying, for-" The miner in the green clothes got cut off.  The Command Meant of Purity landed infant of the miner scaring him. The commandment had on a emotionless look on her face while the miner was shocked. "H-how you doin', sweetheart?" The guy said nervously. The Commandment put two of her fingers on the stomach of the guy. The guys froze up and looked into the distance with a glassy look over his eyes. 

He started to make these strangling noises. His mouth opened as wide as it could go and a blueish white orb came out of his mouth. The mans eyes drooped and his body became more relaxed. The orb went into the hand, made of darkness, that the girl possessed. She then proceed to put the orb in her mouth and chew.

"Wh-What did you did? H-Hey, get a hold of yourself." The other miner said. Derieri looked at the guy slightly.

"Tell me, how does it taste?" Melascula of Faith asked with an amused look on her face.

Derieri swallowed the soul that she eat. With a smirk on her face she replied, "The bottom line is, it's killing two birds with one stone." She gave a thumbs up with her hand made out of darkness.

A hand came up and touched the back of the other miner. The miner gasped and his soul came out of his mouth the same way the other soul did. "All though I'm sure the favor is off, these souls containing a dash of magical power certainly are quite tasty. If we use them as a stopgap nourishment, we can exterminate these swarms of Humans, killing two birds with one stone, 'eh?" The Commandment of Reticence, Monspeet said as he grabbed the soul and ate it.

"All right, then, why don't I send the honeybees out to gather tons of honey?" She put he hands together and starched them out. She then said "Summon Ring." as a giant spinning oval made of darkness appeared in the sky. "Fraidrin, is there a village of Humans nearby?" Her hands were stretched out as far as they could go and she was slightly listed off the ground. "And I mean a nice, big one. You know?" Yellow and red eyes began to appear in the darkness.

"Why are we not attacking the bad guy?" The bear said to the girl in the white dress. She looked over at the bear. The girl then rested her hand on the fur of the bear.

"Patience. We do no know if Meliodas can defeat the Commandment of Truth. It will be surprising if he is able to, since most of his power was taken by Merlin, he is not where he could be, power wise, that is." She looked over at the battle that was in front of her. "Meliodas is strong either way. Even though he is strong, he is still no match for the Commandment. Both are not fully," She thought for a moment, "charged, but Galan has the advantage. Meliodas is still taken by surprise, as well as needing to protect the other people around him. Galan doesn't care. Which gives him the advantage."

"So, when they lose, will you let the Commandment kill them or...?" The bear trailed off. 

(Y/N) hummed in response. "Yes, someone will save them, of course, it isn't me directly. It is very simple, once everyone is out like a light, then we, or should I say I, will have a little chat with our villain." She leaned back against the building she was by. "Until they need help, I'm going to take a little nap. Wake me up when they are dying."

(Y/N) started to hum. The song that she hummed was soft and caring. The sound of the music reached to the ears of the panicking people. As it reached the ears, it touched their hearts. Slowly one by one the city that was being destroyed by the high level demon, was falling asleep. The people forgot about the worries of the city that could fall any second if the young girl wished of it. One by one they all calmed and fell asleep on the side of the street. The panicking city was long gone. 

The hum passed over the ears of the warriors that were fighting for the lives of the people in the city and the ones that they held dear in their hearts. It passed over the ears of the people watching through the clear, purple cube.

Magic was held in every living thing in this world. Just because one does not posses the power to wield the electricity from the ground and sky to come forth, does not mean they are forever going to be magic less. 

The balance between good and bad has been reaching its limits. Bad or could it be good, has been overthrowing the land. With overwhelming strength reaching up and crushing the angels held in the sky. One by one they will fall down into the fiery depths of the land below. Covered in the flames of hell and human. Blood was shed for the good of the people, or was it the good of the rich. 

Humans are simple minded. They think they are complex, but in reality, they are the opposite of complex. Simple minded, same personality, same mind. Never will that change. They will always be the weakest creatures that walked the earth.

Welcome to thy home. The home of death and life, dark and light, day and night, yin and yang. Forever will you stay.

Should I make a schedule to update?

Honestly, I am bad at updating. Oops.

So, what does the last part mean?

Again, ask questions if you are confused or curious. I am also open to suggestions, that doesn't mean that I will do them, please understand.

Anyway... I bid you a good night, day, evening, afternoon, mid day, morning, day break, dusk, dawn.
