The group is finally in the Capital Of The Dead. Hawk looked at the place and couldn’t help but ask.

“Now that we’re here I Ask you guys something?”

Meliodas casually said, “Sure, sure? What is it?”

Hawk complained, “HOW IN THE WORLD IS THIS LONELY VILLAGE CALLED ‘CAPITAL OF THE DEAD’?!”

Mark looked at Hawk, and said, “Pork.”

‘Pork?!’ Hawk thought in his mind, thus Mark continued.

“This village isn’t the Capital Of The Dead, however it’s near.”

Hawk had an ‘I see’ expression, thought he didn’t get it but he did agree anyways, and the group decided to scatter around the small village, Hawk, Daine and Elizabeth went in the other direction.

While Diane and Meliodas went opposite side, while Mark and Ban went straight into the nearest house.

As Ban walks into the nearest house. Mark was following him silently, as the two continued to walk Ban paused a little bit as if he saw something.

Thus he muttered. “Elain-? No..of course not.”

Naturally Mark heard him, but he didn’t say anything either, he kept his silence and was thinking of something.

Ban saw a little girl that had the same size, as his lover Elaine, but as he saw the little girl’s face. Ban realized that he was wrong.

Ban went towards the girl. To ask her some questions about The Capital Of The Dead.

He walked toward the girl like a pedophile (Lol Jk) as he moved closer, the little girl suddenly collapsed and by instinct he caught the girl before she could collapse into the ground.

He carried the girl in a princess carry style, and a boy suddenly arrived and he shouted.

“Dun **** my Loli!!” (Jk again this is the last one can’t help it xD)

“What are you doing to my sister?!”

The boy rushed toward Ban with a rake, with the intention to stab him, however before the rake could stab Ban.

Mark stopped the rake and destroyed it, and then he looked calmly at the boy.

“Boy, it’s dangerous you know that? You could have killed a person.”

The boy fell in the ground, and his little body was trembling, and said.

“B-but I had to save my sister!”

“Save your sister? Oh… Actually you misunderstood she almost collapsed into the ground so this tall dude helped her, so peace okay?”

The boy suddenly froze, and he quickly stood up and bowed his head as lower as he could and shouted.

“IM SO SORRY!!”

Ban looked at Mark, and said. “Hey~ you know that it could do a thing to me right? Why stop it?”

Mark looked at him. “Really? That’s how you thank me? I prevented you from more blood loss!”

“No way~! I never asked you to!”

“…..You know what? Nevermind.”

Ban puts down the girl in the ground. Suddenly a spear was pierce toward Babs ċhėst, and a boy was sitting on it. Mark saw it coming but this time he didn’t help Ban, cause he doesn’t appreciate his help at all!

“Garwh!”

Ban ġrȯȧnėd, and then he looked at the spear in his ċhėst, thus after that he saw a boy riding that spear and he asked.

“Oi, who are you?”

The boy looked at him coldy, and said, “Ban the undead…I’ll never forgive you.”

“Hah? Kid-”

Ban kept spurting blood, but didn’t knee nor collapse, he looked at the boy who is now above him.

By the time he looked, the terrifying hole in his ċhėst completely disappeared without a trace.

“Kid, I have no idea who the hell are you but… Heh…”

Ban grinned and raised his right hand and said. “Snatch!”

But before could his skill work. Meliodas stopped him.

“Oi, stop.”

Meliodas grabs his hand, and successfully stops Ban’s dirty skill, taking the target’s strength and making it his own, while the original is getting weaker and weaker.

Basically the ‘Snatch’ skill is simply made for Ban, then he complained.

“Capt’~ian! Why’d you do that? That guy attacked me first!”

“I know, and I saw that but the problem is you can’t attack a teammate! But of course you’re an exception cause you won’t die no matter what!”

Ban let out a confused expression, and said, “Hah? Teammate? Who?”

Meliodas pointed above, and grinned.

“King!”

Ban was silent for a second, and then his eyes widened and shouted.

“HAAHH?!! THAT KID IS KING?!!! NO NO NO! THAT’S NOT KING! KING IS A FATASS! NOT A SKINNY KID LIKE HIM!”

“Really? I couldn’t tell the difference though? He just lost a little weight that’s it!”

“Capt!! Which eye did you use?! You call that losing a little weight?!!”

Diane also arrived at the place, and then she saw King, she smiled and said.

“Ah! It’s King!! Hello King! It’s been a long time~!!”

“Ehh?? King ignored me!”

Mark looked at King, and then he said, “So that’s the Sin Of Sloth? King…he doesn’t look the same as the poster, how misleading.”

“I know right?! Capt! See! Mark can understand me! Unlike you two!”

While they were chatting, Elizabeth, Hawk and Daine arrived and Elizabeth said.

“Meliodas, we found the Capital Of The Dead.”

Meliodas nodded, and he looked at the rest and said.

“Let’s go!”

Mark interrupted, “Wait a goddamn minute.”

Meliodas looked at him with an innocent expression and said.

“Yes?”

“Ugh…if you had that previous little body of yours it might fit your expression right now, however your new appearance looks disgusting while trying to do that ‘Innocent’ expression of yours! But anyway… aren’t we here to find King? Why are we even going to The Capital Of The Dead? We already achieved our purpose right?”

“Haha, we did but King might be in the Capital Of The Dead! Maybe!”

“To hell with that excuse! You can sense King’s location! And it’s definitely not in the Capital Of The Dead!”

Meliodas scratched his head and gave an awkward laugh, and said honestly.

“Don’t be like that, I’m interested in going to this Capital Of The Dead, I can feel a unique presence in that place.”

Mark couldn’t refute that, he could also feel that unique presence, and thought ‘It’s really different experiencing the real deal than just watching….but still that Unique presence is really interesting it should be an existence that has consciousness, it’s not a living thing nor it is Elaine or the kids…’

Mark sigh, and said.

“Fine, let’s go…I’m also interested in that ‘Thing’”

Meliodas nodded. Diane, Hawk and Ban couldn’t understand what they meant, while Daine understood what they were trying to say.

Thus the group went into the Capital Of The Dead.
