The Seven Deadly Sins (七つの大罪)

The fourth of the Seven Deadly Sins, King the Grizzly Sin, was alive.

You walked right into my trap.

Filled with intense hatred, King doggedly pursued Ban.

Ban, meanwhile, was pursuing something himself.

And in addition to that, a woman was tailing the entire group.

It would seem that the Necropolis actually exists.

Um, who is this?

Hang on, are you a Holy Knight?!

Stop--

If it's not too much trouble,

would you mind showing me how to reach the Necropolis?

Like we would ever tell you!

Brother... can't breathe...

Be a good boy and tell me.

"Precious memories shared with the dead will guide you to the capital."

I don't quite follow you.

How would we know about the land where the dead go?

The dead? Ah, I see. Thank you.

Don't!

This is a tale of ancient times,

when the human and non-human worlds had not yet split.

Long ago, the Holy Knights joined with the three other races

and drove the demons into the shadows.

With the passage of time, this war, known as the Holy War,

has faded from the memory of men.

But the Holy War is crying out once again.

It demands the eradication of the Seven Deadly Sins!

THE FEARSOME PURSUER

-Ban! -King!

-Sir Ban! -King!

Sheesh, where'd those two run off to?

Sir Meliodas?

We're not alone.

Um, I don't see anyone here but us...

There isn't even a single ghost here, either!

Actually, I'd be terrified if there were.

There's no point in hanging around here. L-Let's look for those two!

G-Good idea!

Does he think he can escape from me?

You again, Fake-king?

Fake-king?

No, I really am King.

I'm a busy man! Shoo!

I don't think so.

Izzat so?

You haven't changed at all since the old days, have you?

As long as it feeds your greed, you couldn't care less if it hurts others.

You're really King?

Didn't I say so?

Then I can kick your ass without holding back!

You used to backhand me like that all the time back in the day.

So you've turned up to settle your old scores with us--

no, with me?

Feeling this way after being reunited with you is the last thing I wanted.

Ten years ago, driven from the capital on suspicion of plotting a coup,

I had nowhere else to go, so I returned to my homeland.

But what welcomed me

was the heartrending sight of my homeland burnt beyond recognition.

When I was in the Sins with you, I never gave it much thought.

As to why a human like you was unkillable.

I never suspected

that you had killed the saint and drunk from the fountain.

Hang on, how do you know about that woman?

The saint you killed,

Elaine was my little sister!

Oh, now I get it. You want to kill me to avenge her?

Sorry, but that's not going to happen. I can't be killed!

You know that my Sacred Treasure has a variety of configurations, right?

Oh, right.

Anything you're not interested in goes in one ear and out the other.

Spirit spear Chastiefol, third configuration!

Fossilization!

Come again?

It turns things to stone.

I've been waiting for this moment.

Are you watching, Elaine?

I wish it had been me that Ban came to steal

instead of the Fountain of Youth...

Should I, then?

You said you were going to get something to eat!

I found some lingonberries right over there.

Now, let's get started!

Stop teasing me!

I'm serious, trust me!

I never seem to hit it off with humans.

Besides, you hear me out and take me seriously.

I can't! I'm flattered,

but I must protect the Fountain of Youth. This forest is--

Hey, I've got that covered.

I'll find your brother and bring him back here.

You told me about him once, remember?

About having a big brother who left hundreds of years ago.

If he comes back, you'll be free and clear!

Ban, hold on!

What... just happened?

What the hell is that?

A Demon.

A Demon?

Only one thing can set the Fairy King's Forest ablaze,

and that's the flames of Purgatory.

But I thought they were defeated by the Goddesses in the Ancient War

and locked away!

Is the Fountain of Youth okay?

Don't worry, I made sure of that first thing.

Good. You take that and get out of here.

Come with me! The Demon hasn't noticed us yet!

Shh! I'm gonna take it out while its back is turned!

Now!

What did I tell you? One shot.

No, Ban! A demon has more than one--

If you have a deathbed confession, I'll hear it.

It won't mean that I forgive you, though.

What's so funny?

Don't act tough. I know this must be driving you crazy.

Goodbye, Ban.

There's no sign of them...

Maybe they've gone back to the real world?

Who's that?

How do you do, Meliodas the Dragon Sin? Diane the Serpent Sin?

My name is Holy Knight Guila.

- How did you get here? - By dying.

Uh, did she just say she came here by dying?

She sure did.

Doesn't that mean that this lady is bad news?

Yep. Seriously bad news.

Hawk, take Elizabeth and get as far away from here as possible.

Will do! Hop on, Elizabeth!

O-Okay...

Now, watch this pig fly!

Try to stay safe, you two!

That Holy Knight named Guila is really dangerous!

That's what my wild instincts are telling me!

No, I felt it, too.

You did?

We should be far enough away by now.

Um, I think we might have gone too far.

- Ouch... - Sir Meliodas!

What are you still doing here?! Go farther!

Are you kidding me?!

-Captain! -You weigh a ton!

That's so mean! What a tactless thing to say!

This is hardly the time!

Diane the Serpent Sin.

Possibly the strongest of the Sins in terms of physical strength.

And as a Giant, a race with a close bond with the earth,

possesses the special magical ability "Creation."

I had been looking forward to seeing it in person.

What do you think?

I'm disappointed, frankly.

The ability didn't live up to the stories I'd heard.

Let's see how you like this, then!

Sand Whirl!
