Love and Death

Chapter Two

Previously,

"So than what really happened three thousand years ago?" Diane asked anxiously.

Merlin frowns "I'm unsure myself" she interjected with an unsure look on her face.

"So what Diane and I saw was an illusion? There's no way and what does this woman have anything to do with the Captain and why haven't we seen her in the training given to us by King Gloxinia and King Drole." King stated with an anxious look on his face.

Chandler scowls angrily at the mention of Ryoko's name "So that woman still haunts you Master Meliodas! That loathsome bitch should have died from that curse her coven placed on her 3,000 years ago. She refused our King's offer but she seduces both of his sons such a vile woman she was, the Goddess pretty much did you a favor young master" he complained.

Meliodas's black eyes shifted to his former mentor "That's enough Chandler, you will not insult Ryoko any further. Also what happened to her?" He demanded.

Chandler frowns "She died protecting Zeldris and she killed her entire coven while the curse was still intact and she died a painful death" he blurted, Meliodas's eyes widen in shock along with the Sins and Elizabeth.

"Her coven found out and placed the curse of death on her and they were planning to confront the Demon Race and to kill the Sons of Demon King for "raping" their sister. You were still with that little goddess, so you don't what occurred young master but yes the other grand witches wanted to kill you both but she stopped them I can remember it as if it was yesterday.

Flashback

3,000 years ago,

The Bellatrix Coven attacked the demon race.

"Where are those Hell Spawns!? they dared forced themselves onto our sister!" The Head Grand Witch demanded angrily her silver eyes glowing with menace.

Five Gray Demons were blocking her way.

"Silver Blaze!" She shouted setting all of them on fire destroying their hearts at once.

Zeldris confronted the enraged witch "Where is she!? Where is Ryoko!?" He demanded angrily.

"I don't answer to a rapist! What the hell did you and that dreadful brother of yours have done to her!" She angrily demanded.

Zeldris scowls "None of your business bitch! And you like you can talk you placed that damn curse on her and you have the gall to call her your sister!?" He sneered.

"Now where is Ryoko!? I won't asked again" He demanded angrily taking out his sword, he will find his lover himself.

The Head Grand Witch was about to answer but she starts to cough harshly, spitting up blood.

"What happening!?" She angrily her lungs felt they were on fire, the young witches were dropping like flies but the ten grand witches were not affected as a result of their high magic capacity.

Zeldris noticed the black ash was falling.

"This spell" he muttered, it was Ryoko's.

"It can't be, why would she do this and to protect a demon no less!" One witch shouted angrily and she was coughing blood violently and she dies painfully.

Ryoko stumbles onto the battlefield she looks as if she's on the verge of death. Her brown skin was coated with sweat and was paler than usual, she has dark circles underneath her eyes, she also look emaciated. She was only wearing her black dress and was barefoot, she wore her signature black pendant.
