《The Eight Deadly Sins》Chapter 7
Advertisement
"WHAT," the sins yelled.
"Captain, why would he go just like that?" Diane asked.
"don't know, he didn't say much,"
"Then what did he say," King said.
"He said "something popped up while we were in the necropolis, and I need time to think on it," but he didn't say what it was, he just said I can't ask him his what his sin is."
"You think he will return?" Elizabeth asked.
"If you ask me, he won't," Hawk said.
"He will, I don't think he has ever left any of the sins to fight on their own, doubt he would do it now,"
"at least he gave us information on a potential weapon that is ours," Ban said.
"we'll see, okay next stop Vaizel,"
(Y/N) was walking on the road that heads towards Cains village.
"Man, I wonder what has changed since I was gone, I wonder in Twigo has managed to get rid of the bugs in his bed yet, hehehe,"
As (Y/N) continued down the road he stumbled into security, but this guy clearly was a regular knight, him and his black eyes and black hair, he couldn't stand to an apprentice holy knight.
"Hey, you stop there," a knight ordered.
"Sup,"
"I am a holy knight of Liones you better state your intentions, the sins were spotted in this area, so I demand that you tell me what you are doing here?"
'a holy knight really, this guy can't even be an apprentice holy knight,' (Y/N) sighed "I am just traveling through the area, I have no intention of staying," 'hopefully he will let me pass,'
"If you are at all traveling, why don't you have traveling supplies?"
"I am more or less just wanting to go on a walk, nothing more,"
"You are several miles from the nearest village, how are you just going for a walk?"
'Man, this guy won't give up,' "I started my walk in the morning, we are in the afternoon, obviously I have been walking for some time,"
"You have a smart mouth mister," he said pointing a sword at his neck and (Y/N) didn't even flinch "I see that you are so scared that you can't move, what is your name?"
"I can't tell you that," (Y/N) said rubbing his head.
"And why not?"
"Well, if I say it, you will assume that I'm someone else,"
The knight drew back his sword, "okay then tell me,"
"(Y/N),"
"Like as in the ape sin?" he said eyes wide.
"Told you, I get so many problems because of that sinner, every time I go anywhere people will arrest me because of it,"
"Then did you break out?" he asked ready to attack.
"No, no, no I would never, I was set free the moment they found that I wasn't him," then an idea popped into (Y/N)'s head "look at my left forearm, if I don't have a mark of a beast then I must not be a sin," as (Y/N) grabbed his left sleave pulling it up only for there to be no mark.
"I guess you aren't him then,"
'That is because it is on my right, not left,' "well then can I go on my way?"
"Yes, I sir Andrew, will allow you to pass,"
"Thank you," (Y/N) said as he continued down the path.
(Y/N) had finally arrived at Cains village, and to his surprise, Twigo had not destroyed the village.

As (Y/N) walked through the village, he managed to avoided people looking at him, just in case people recognized him, when he reached the cave, it looked as if no-one had been here.
"wow, they still haven't found this place, o well, I better get Ragespike," as (Y/N) entered, he found where he had placed his sword ten years ago, there was a bit of dust on in, but as he reached to grab the blade, he heard voices echo in his head, and each one was screaming in pain, he griped his head and fell to the floor, "gurr, I need to do this,"
Flashback to the necropolis.
"Hello there, it's been a while, Siara," (Y/N) said.
"(Y/N)?" Siara said as she wrapped her arms around him "it's been so long," as she started to tear up, then punched him in the gut as (Y/N) fell to the floor.
"Yup, I deserve that,"
"Humph, that is because you have changed again... well I am happy to see that you have friends again,"
"Well, they did get me to join their weird group, I have something to ask of you,"
"Why what is it?"
(Y/N) sighed "I'm struggling, to hold any form of a weapon,"
"..."
"Ever since my failure, I have always struggled, but now, I can't even hold one without going into pain, and hearing everyone's voices, and they are way louder than when I close my eyes."
"I can't believe you,"
"Huh, why?"
"You are the strongest of your kind, you are not meant to feel these emotions," (Y/N) looked down "but maybe that is why you are strong," (Y/N) was now confused "and why I love you," she said embracing (Y/N) as the two kissed, the two then parted as Siara, "by the way, i have done a lot of talking with your ancestors I found something, a myth,"
"Okay what is it?"
"a power that is unmatched, a power unlocked by a need and rage, not a desire, created by pain,"
(Y/N) looked unfazed by the myth "hold on, how many ??? do you know?"
"shh, spoilers," Siara said as an explosion was heard "looks like you are needed my ape,"
End of flashback
"I must protect the people I care about..." (Y/N) then felt a huge amount of demonic power "what the, that is coming from Vizel, what are the others doing?" (Y/N) looked at the blade that rests, "if I want to protect the people, I care about then I must get over my despair," (Y/N) said reaching for the blade as the pain returned, but he didn't let go, he raised the blade in the air, 'give me the power to protect the people that I care about, give me the strength to reclaim the power I once had, allow me to have the strength to move on, but to never forget, never forget the pain... the pain of losing your race.' as (Y/N) made his promise, the screams became quieter, eventually they vanished, as (Y/N) dropped to the floor, "it seems as if one more wall is needed to be broken," (Y/N) said as he remembered the demonic power, "but I don't have the time, maybe another day, a day when I really need that power once again, for now, I doubt I will need that power," (Y/N) sheathed his blade and put the blade onto his belt.
As (Y/N) continued his path to Vizel he stumbled upon the same man as before.

"Hey, Andrew," (Y/N) yelled seeing the knight standing guard, 'wait has he gotten stronger, not by a little, but by a lot,'
"Aha, my friend hello, are you on your way home?"
"Yes, then I might head to Vizel next," 'maybe I could get some information,'
"I wouldn't go there,"
"Why what happened there?"
"I heard the sins attacked the place,"
"Did they,"
"Yea, it was brutal, apparently, there are four of this sins that have been gathered so far,"
"Wow, maybe I won't head there, thank you for the heads up,"
As (Y/N) continued, he had a thought, 'now where would they go, knowing that captain he would head to, Ordan village, I better get there as soon as possible,' (Y/N) thought as he started to sprint to reach the members of the sins.
As (Y/N) turned up, he could feel another demonic, not like the other one, similar, but different. As (Y/N) found where the Boar hat rested, he could see that Diane was there and no-one else, even that demonic energy had vanished.
"Hey Diane," (Y/N) said seeing the giant near the boar hat.
"(Y/N), your back," Diane said with joy knowing Meliodas was right.
"I see you have Gideon, that is good,"
"And you have Ragespike,"
"So, where is the captain and the others? I sensed a demonic energy but now it is gone,"
"Demonic?"
"Yeah, there was a demonic power coming from the forest, and now it is gone,"
"The captain, probably did something about it, now that I think about it couldn't you have come with us to Vizel, we had to deal with some new generations,"
"New generation?"
"Yeah, King said that they are apprentice holy knights that gained the power of a holy knight in just one day,"
"Like Guila," (Y/N) wondered if Andrew was one, but the power was something similar, one he had not felt in a long time.
"Wait how did you...?"
"I thought something was up when Guila had the power of a holy knight, but clearly had no a lot of battle experience."
"Hey, were back," Meliodas said as him, Ban and king appeared from the forest along with a pink haired boy following behind.
"Who is that?" (Y/N) asked.
"Your back huh (Y/N), find what you were looking for?"
"Mostly, I got my sacred treasure back, couldn't solve the other problem, anyway you avoided my question, who is that?"
"Bone structure, body mass and tone, you are (Y/N),"
"Never mind, hey Gowther,"
"Gowther?" Diane said in shock, none of the sins have ever seen Gowther without his amour on.
"Nice to meet you sir Gowther," Elizabeth said, "I am Elizabeth the third princess of Liones please lend me your so we can save the kingdom."
"no."
"NO?" the sins yelled at Gowther
"It is not "nice to meet you" you have already met us when you were young."
"Come to think of it, there was a tiny girl with the king all the time."
"Huh I don't really remember."
"Then did I meet Sir Meliodas back then too?"
"Something like that," Meliodas said "so Gowther what is your answer?"
"I accept, I was appointed as a member of the sins by the king, therefore I have no reason to refuse the princess,"
"Alright, now we have gathered six of the eight sins we should celebrate by drinking,"
"WOOHOOO," Ban and Hawk yelled.
"We were already going to do that but I'm in," King said.
As the day went on the sins celebrated the return of Gowther the Goat sin of Lust.
Gowther just sat there silently, "...I'm moved I never thought to be with the others again," Meliodas said sitting next to Gowther, "...is that what you are thinking?"
"I am thinking about how none of us are the same race, and I'm thinking what (Y/N) is,"
"that's it,"
"That is, it,"
"haha, how that you mention it you're absolutely right, hey gowther, I wanted to ask you about ten years ago,"
"I see, your memories of the event are blurry, you want to know who rendered your unconscious,"
"Do you know?"
"Yes, it was the Boar Sin Merlin."
"Merlin, but why."
"I don't know, but every time I came closer to finding her location, she would disappear again,"
The day went on with gowther showing his power revealing embarrassing thoughts that they.
When the next day came around the sins were back on the move,
"Hey captain, where are we going?" (Y/N) asked.
"Did you find a lead on another one?" King said.
"Escanor or Merlin," Gowther said.
"Nope, we are going to Liones and get my sword back,"
"Sword...you mean that dragon hilt that was stolen from you,"
"We can't let them have it, we may only have six members here, but that should be more than enough, so who's coming?"
"That sounds like a pain, I'll pass."
"It is your fault it was stolen."
"You must take responsibility for yourself,"
"I'll come,"
Everyone turned to (Y/N).
"Thanks," Meliodas said.
"No problem captain,"
"Why the hell are you helping him get back something he lost?" Ban asked.
(Y/N) just stayed silent, worrying the sins as he normally answers all the questions apart from his sin and race.
"The sword handle, no, the dragon handle that was stolen from me, is a fragment of a ritual relic "the coffin of eternal darkness,"
"The coffin of eternal darkness?" King said, "that's... It is something mentioned in folklore."
"It most defiantly is not folklore," (Y/N) said.
"How do you know," King yelled only to be ignored.
"What would be the point in that, what's their goal?" Hawk asked.
"Most likely the revival of the demon race, and restart the holy war," (Y/N) said.
"Why would they do that?" King asked.
"You mentioned how there was a man-made demon using a holy knight, right? If you are mad enough the demon race is the best to test a new power on."
"Wait, if they have the captain's sword, does that mean the demon race is resurrected?"
"Nope, it is an incredibly strong seal, so there would be some way of knowing," Meliodas reassured.
"Come to think of it they always wanted your sword and Elizabeth," Hawk said.
"Because she is the last piece to its release," a woman said standing behind Elizabeth.
"ELIZABETH, GET AWAY FROM HER," Meliodas yelled only for the two to vanish with Hawk tagging along, "DAAAAAMMMMM IIIIITTTTT," Meliodas grabbed Liz's sword and ran outside.
"Was that a holy knight?" Ban asked.
"Not sure," (Y/N) said.
"That was a high level of teleportation." King said.
"What happened?" Diane asked.
"Elizabeth was captured," King said.
"No way... to where?"
"To the kingdom," Meliodas said "I'm going to rescue Elizabeth,"
"But it is forty miles away," King said.
"Everyone who is coming grab hold of me," (Y/N) said.
"Are you going to carry everyone?" Gowther asked as Ban Meliodas and Diane were holding onto (Y/N),
"No but I can get us all there," (Y/N) said as King and Gowther grabbed hold.
"Go (Y/N)," Meliodas said as (Y/N) put two fingers to his head as the sins suddenly found themselves on top on the building that they were framed.
