Y/n's P.O.V
Seeing Meliodas, Ban, and King standing in that arena full of people scared me a bit. I wanted to go help but I didn't have training or any powers I could've been using.
"Good luck you three..." I mutter to myself as I saw the referee blow a whistle and that's when all hell broke loose. Everyone in the arena began punching each other.
"Try not to kill anyone Ban~" Meliodas rolled his eyes ad he easily threw people off the arena.
"I know captain~ I bet I can kick more people out then you!" Ban shouted as they begun competing. I laughed at their silliness.
"I hate it here!" King shouted as he ran around randomly and somehow avoided people who tried throwing him out. He loves Diane so much he signed up for a fighting tournament despite not liking it. How cute!
"Hey kid! This place isn't for you!!" Some buff guy shouted at King and I glared at him. Who does he think he is saying things like that?
"Take it easy Taizoo~ This fighting festival is for everyone." Looking at that guy...I can somehow tell he's a holy knight. He seems familiar..
"Whatever Holy Knight Howzer!" Taizoo shouted and went to other people to kick them out of the arena. Howzer and I managed to look into each other's eyes and he seemed shocked to see me. I tilted my head in confusion.
"Y/n is that you?!" Howzer shouted and I gasped. He knew my name...but how? When I found out that Zaratras was my biological father...could Howzer be in my past memories I don't remember?
"Who's Y/N~?" Meliodas chuckled playfully at Howzer before kicking him away from my line of sight. I knew that Howzer was still in the arena but seeing him felt nostalgic. The holy knights may be our enemy but I knew that Howzer was different deep down. That's when I noticed only eight people were left the referee blew his whistle.
"The preliminaries are now over! You will be assigned randomly to another participant to fight!" I wonder who Meliodas will be fighting? Knowing him he'd want to fight Ban.
"How'd I do~?" Meliodas questioned cheerfully as he wrapped his arm around my neck.
"I wasn't paying attention to you~" I teased and that comment made Meliodas laugh.
"She was paying attention to that guy~" Ban smirked as he stood next to me. Meliodas looked upset when Ban said that. Could he be jealous?
"Captain is very possessive." King commented and I nodded. Meliodas always acted strangely when it came to me. That woman wearing a cloak and a hat keeps staring at me...who is she and why does she remind me of someone?
