Chapter 11

3rd POV

"So where are we headed now?" Ban asked
"Do you have a lead on our next comrade?" King asked laying his head on the table counter.
"Escanor and Merlin..." Gowther mumbled.
"I already know where Merlin but for Escanor I have no clue." (Y/n) said.
"You do?!" King exclaimed. "Then we should go to her."
"No!" Meliodas yelled suddenly. "First, I'm going to sneak into the capital and get my sword back."
"Sword? You mean the dragon hilt that you lost?" Ban asked.
"I can't just let that go." Meliodas slammer his fists on the table with a smile. "Guys, you'll come with me, won't you?"
"It sounds like a drag, so..., I pass." Ban said in a bored tone.
"Yeah, it's your own fault that you lost it."  King added.
"He has a point." Gowther said while (y/n) just giggled at the sins lazy behavior.
"I'm so sad." Meliodas said while putting his face in (y/n)'s chest which caused Diane to break her head through the window and yell at him. Of course (y/n) punched him away so he got to work fixing the window Diane broke earlier.
"Right. The Coffin of Eternal Darkness... that dragon hilt is a fragment of a ritual relic."
"The sword you had?" Elizabeth asked.
"Yeah, according to an ancient legend... it's one of the fragment of a relic created to seal away the Demon race... when the Goddess, Giant, Fairy, and Human races joined forces long, long, ago."
"But what are the Holy Knights planning to do by gathering such things?" Elizabeth asked.
"They are probably planning to resurrect the demon race." (Y/n) answered.
"Those miserable bastards again." Ban said.
"Come to think of it, it was Hendrickson who turned Dale into that monster, wasn't it?" King asked.
"Yes. No doubt about that." Gowther answered.
"I don't understand why he and Dreyfus would do such a thing. It doesn't make sense. Why would he resurrect the demon race, what could he accomplish?" Elizabeth asked.
"Maybe he wants to be friends with them." Hawk suggested.
"No way." Elizabeth said.
"Then what does he want?"
"So you mean they've already used that sword of yours to resurrect the Demons?" Diane asked.
"Not yet... it's a pretty powerful seal, so if they do manage to break it there's sure to be a sign." Meliodas answered and then Hawk stomach started to growl while he cried out in pain.
"It's a sign.... I'm getting a sign!"
"Of a dump?" Ban asked.
"The seal is about to be broken..." Hawk said while sweating and walking slowly to the door.
"Hawk, are you alright?" Elizabeth asked.
"Hang on... why were those guys after not just the sword, but you, too Elizabeth?"
"Well that's because." A mysterious voice said from right behind Elizabeth. Standing there was a Holy Knight dressed in a long magenta dress and a mast with hands on it. "She's the last key to breaking the seal."
"Elizabeth! Get away from her!!" Meliodas yelled.
"You're coming with us too, Demon Princess."
"(Y/n) run!!!!" Meliodas yelled and before she was able to do anything she was teleported away in a flash of light.
"DAMMIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Meliodas yelled so loudly that some of the Sins were shocked. He grabbed his dagger and ran out the Boar Hat leaving the sins a little stunned.
"Most likely, it was a mage. Instantly appearing in just the right spot and then vanishing." Gowther explained while the other sins ran outside as well.
"Captain!" Diane called.
"Follow me! To the capital! I'm heading over right now to save Elizabeth and (y/n)!!!!"
"But it's more than 40 miles from here..." King said.
"Diane!" Meliodas called. She looked confused at first but then she began to understand.
"Gotcha!"
"Hold up! I'm coming with you." Ban said hugging Meliodas in the air with a smile which turned into an evil smirk when he said, "I can't let them get away with taking my goddess like that."
"I'll go with you." Gowther said hugging Ban from behind.
"You, too Gowther? What are you doing?" King asked.
"The captain and Ban are always fighting. I'd like to learn by observing them." Gowther explained as Diane grabbed the trio.
"Here goes. Bear with me if I'm a little off."
"As long as it's in the right direction, no problem!" Meliodas said as Diane positioned herself properly.
"No matter what happens make sure to bring Elizabeth and (y/n) back, alright?" Diane ran forward a few steps before launching the trio into the air at such fast speeds that they were in the castle in only a matter of seconds. They crashed into the ground in front of a large group of Holy Knights and ran forward to the castle.
"Our only objective is Elizabeth and (y/n). Keep the fighting to a minimum!"
"Roger that."
"Yeah, but we could still have a little fun, right?" Ban asked. Meliodas answer was definitely unlike anything he would have ever said. It wasn't in his character but the look on his face showed it all. It showed what a sin it was taking those girls or more like one in particular.
"Go straight for the kill!"

***

Eight Holy Knights attacked Meliodas using magic and with one swing of his dagger each magical attacked was turned back on them in double strength. Anyone that stood in there way were killed without an hesitation whatsoever. The sins broke right through there defenses until suddenly coming to a stop sensing a strange magical power.
"What's the strange power?" Ban asked.
"It appears to be coming from the other side of the castle." Gowther answered. Meanwhile on the otherwise of the castle, stood a massive army lead by the new king of Camelot, Arthur.
"I am one of Liones's Holy Knight grand masters, Hendrickson. I understand that you are a King from a nation to our South, but showing up here without sending an emissary in advance is somewhat discourteous, wouldn't you say?"
"I am Arthur Pendragon, King of Camelot. I apologize for my rudeness. Years ago, the King of Liones did me a good turn, and I've come to express my gratitude."
"With an army?"
"I thought that I wouldn't be granted audience unless I did so."
"What?" In a snap of a finger by the cloaked finger next to Arthur, the entire army disappeared. "Well, I see that we've been taken in. However, I regret to inform you that the King has suddenly fallen ill, and is currently bedridden. I ask you to turn back today."
"All the more reason I cannot turn back. My companion has the ability to cure the king's illness."
"We appreciate your goodwill but please turn back." Hendrickson repeated and in turn Arthur remover his helmet.
"I will not!"
"How dare!" The knights behind Hendrickson we're ready to attack until he stopped then.
"Come again?"
"Lord Hendrickson, I can see that you're dealing with some problem that you wish to keep from outsiders. But we will be glad to offer our aid in resolving that problem."
