A hundred years had passed and Meliodas was swinging his sword against the practice dummy. Behind him was Zeldris observing. He swung his feet contently on the bench. He was absolutely mesmerised by his brother.
"Why don't you get off your lazy butt and practice Zeldris?" Meliodas snarled. He was finding himself getting distracted by the boy.
"O-Of course brother!" Zeldris stuttered and picked up a sword. He moved to a practice dummy next to Meliodas and began running through drills.
Despite the fact he had gotten Zeldris doing something useful with himself he was still getting distracted by him. Meliodas sighed and put his sword against the wall.
As he did that Gowther walked up. "Yello Meliodas!" he greeted happily.
"Gowther, do try to greet me with some formality when we're in public," Meliodas groaned. Gowther just laughed and smiled. "What do you want?"
"First, your father wishes to speak with you. Second, Derieri and Monspeet finished their mission," Gowther informed.
Meliodas nodded and walked away. Zeldris continued to run through his drills as Gowther watched him.
"You've improved a lot, Lord Zeldris," Gowther commented. Zeldris stopped and looked at him, confused.
"How come you are formal with me and not my brother?" Zeldris asked curiously.
Gowther smiled. "He doesn't care." Zeldris turned back to the dummy. "Would you prefer if I didn't call you lord?" Zeldris hesitantly nodded. "Let's see your magic. Charge at me!"
Zeldris froze. "W-What?"
"Go ahead," Gowther coaxed.
"O-Oh okay..." Zeldris then ran at Gowther.
