The Eight Sin The Sin Of Love - Chapter 23 Match
While waiting for his big brother to come and meet him Jax was looking around. A brave woman stepped up in front of him. At least she pretended to be, “how dare you kill the Holy Knights” it was a girl that seemed to be just a little bit older than Jax himself, probably around 18 years old. She tried to be brave but the shaking in her arms was present. Jax looked at her and knew her from the original story, Jericho.
The woman that would fall in love with his older brother Ban. Jax hated woman with a passion after what Rose did to him but he didn’t feel like killing her. Her fate was already sad to love a man that would never love her back. And he was not worried that she one day could harm even one of the people close to him. She just worked here to become stronger and earn her status as a real Holy Knight. Nothing more than that.
He just gazed at her with his cold eyes the same eyes he had when he killed the 4 Holy Knights before. Even if his plan wasn’t to kill her the cold look was still there after all he didn’t trust woman after everything that happened to him.
“Girl you better leave and tell your boss Hendrickson that he should watch out with who he angers,” Jax said with real hate in his voice for Hendrickson. From the original story, it was seen that he made hybrids between Demon and Human.
And after spending time with Luciv for these past ten years he hated people that glorified things like that. Luciv went through hell because of being a hybrid yet here there is a Holy Knight making hybrids. And also the pride he took in being a made hybrid was something Jax couldn’t stand.
It was in his blood the pride of the Demon clan and the pride of the Vampire clan. Even if the Royal Vampire clan wasn’t as strong as the Demon clan it was far stronger than any human society. The only exception being Ban and Escanor. So he couldn’t stand a guy acting as if he had become the strongest existence with just some trash demons blood.
Jericho didn’t know what the guy in front of her meant with who he angers but she was scared of the tone of the man. Yet she knew she couldn’t defeat no less even hurt him. But she took her battle stance prepared to die for her kingdom. As soon as Jax saw this he saw a Holy Knight that was not worth killing at all. Slowly he could be heard murmuring something, “Zaratras, after all, there are still people like you in this damned kingdom.”
When Jax saw the determination that Jericho had he felt happy this was something his best friends father would have liked to see.
Jax just released all of his killing intent knocking out the girl in front of him. After this a chuckle could be heard, “hahaha kiddo why didn’t you just kill her” a man stepped out of the shadow his beard was gone and his hairstyle changed to the hair cut he got from Jericho. It was his brother Ban the fox sin of greed.
Jax smiled “How did you get your hair like that I remember it being longer”
“Just found a sword and did it like this looks cool right kid,” Ban said while smiling.
“Hmm you still look stupid” Jax teased him.
“you little brat you have grown quite a lot in size, huh and even in your word capacity,” Ban said while his smile grew he was happy to see his little brother here.
“I guess so so shall we continue where we left off,” Jax said while getting his arm ready. Ban also got his arm ready and a second later they locked hands and were ready to arm wrestle. It was the exact same thing that Meliodas and Ban did when they reunited after 10 years.
It became a habit for Jax to join in on their matches when he was around four years old he saw Ban and Meliodas arm wrestle and decided to challenge Ban to a match. After that Jax lost 50 times and the stand right now was 0-50 in favor of Ban. But Jax was ready to finally get his first point after 10 years of physical training.
Ban smiled and started teasing his little brother, “you ready to be defeated once more little boy”
Jax started smiling before putting more strength into his arm and Ban started to shake so Jax decided to tease him, “sorry I guess today is the first time for a loss to be added to your record.”
The two started to put more and more pressure on it before Jax decided to finally get his first win. He released his full strength on Ban and in the next instant Ban arm hit the ground while bleeding. Ban was shocked while looking at the arm before smiling, “I guess your height isn’t the only thing that increased your strength has too” he said feeling happy his little brother got stronger. “I guess so,” Jax said while smiling.
Afterward, they both started laughing before they said, “shall we get going then” and both walked slowly out of the prison as if nothing happened. Their arm wrestle match had destroyed the whole castle yet they walked out of it as if nothing special had happened. Both just talking to each other and Ban asking questions like where is captain.
And Jax just answering while smiling. Before both of them decided to try to find Meliodas and Dianne but before they could do so they saw them walking towards the prison. Meliodas just smiled at Dianne and Elizabeth when he saw the state the prison was in. “I guess Jax already took care of freeing Ban” Dianne was laughing at this sight but Elizabeth was scared. After all, how could he have such strength? But inside Hawk, the demon king was watching while thinking,
“he is a better vessel I will wait for the right time” a malicious smile formed on his face.
