"That's the royal capital." Elizabeth pointed to the gray city wall that was faintly visible in the distance, her eyes a little complicated, "I went round and round, and finally came back..."

"Yes." Meliodas put his hands on the back of his head and couldn't help but yawned: "It has been more than ten years."

Elizabeth was stunned for a moment, then suddenly said: "Yes, Lord Meliodas, you used to live in the royal capital."

Meliodas looked at Elizabeth, blinked, and said half-seriously, "Not only that, I hugged you before, well... you were quite cute when you were little."

Hearing this, Elizabeth blushed, "No... don't say this, Lord Meliodas, I have grown up long ago!"

Meliodas looked at it for a moment, "Indeed -"

"Hey! Melly, don't bully Elizabeth."

Beautiful women always have guardians around them.

Piggy took on such a role without hesitation.

But he saw it knocking Meliodas away like a cannonball, and two streams of white air came out of its nostrils.

Meliodas rubbed his lower back and was about to say something when Ben, Jin and Escanor came over.

"Captain, Marlene sent a messenger." Jin said lazily.

Meliodas listened and asked curiously: "Where is the messenger?"

"Here." Ban threw something casually.

Meliodas caught it, only to find it was a gray pigeon that had been crushed to death.

"Ah this..." Meliodas looked at Ben.

Ban spread his hands helplessly: "Don't look at me, who knew this thing was a messenger? He bumped into it carelessly, thinking he could add another dish tonight."

"A pigeon, plus vegetables? It's not enough for you." Meliodas complained and clicked on the unique pig-shaped mark on the chest of the gray pigeon.

In an instant, Marlene's illusion appeared in front of everyone.

"It's been a long time." Marlene was a little confused: "And why is my signal here intermittent?"

Meliodas pointed to Ben next to him.

Marlene understood and stopped worrying. She smiled softly and said, "Diane and Gowther have been found. Where are you?"

"It went very well here too. Not only were Ban and Escanor recovered, but Jin is also with me." Meliodas said truthfully.

"In this way, none of the familiar partners are left behind." A trace of nostalgia flashed in Marin's eyes, and she turned to talk about other things: "By the way, my informant in the royal capital told me that the Kingdom of Leonis

The army is gathering troops. Guess who they are making such a big show of for?"

Meliodas scratched his eyebrows: "As for that - I haven't done anything yet."

"Haha." Marin smiled: "Captain, although I don't want to say this, our 'Seven Deadly Sins' are not the main target of our crusade this time. You have a little too much self-awareness."

Meliodas was a little surprised, but then he reacted, "You mean, they put the main crime on Jon?"

Marlene smiled half-heartedly: "That's right, our Lord Jon Joestar is now a 'legendary villain' who has shouldered the Seven Evils and committed a total of 31 crimes. He only abducted and killed the princess of the kingdom.

Just one thing, and he will be regarded as an eternal enemy by the Lyonnis Kingdom, and he is still the kind who will never stop fighting."

"Why is this like this!" Elizabeth couldn't stand listening anymore and said excitedly: "Lord Jon, it's obviously me..."

Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Marlene: "Your opinion is not important."

She shifted her gaze to Elizabeth, "Now you are a ghost, a deceased princess who was expelled from the Kingdom of Lyonesse. Who cares about the words of a dead person?"

Elizabeth was speechless for a moment.

Meliodas scratched his head and comforted softly: "It's okay, the truth will not be buried, I will help you, we will all help you."

"Lord Meliodas." Elizabeth's eyes were filled with tears.

Taking a deep breath, she clenched her fists and said word by word: "Yes, the truth will not be buried. Lord Meliodas, you should not have to endure so many injustices. Evildoers will definitely be punished!"

"Oh~" Ban clapped his hands: "I'm very motivated."

Escanor smiled without saying a word, his eyes full of tenderness, filled with that graceful figure.

"Well, have you not distilled the key point? Isn't the key point that the kingdom has assembled its army to deal with us." Jin couldn't help it and spoke angrily.

He lay down on the sleeping mat and looked around: "What should I say? It wouldn't be good to kill all those people."

Can be killed.

But it's not necessary.

Anyway, Jin doesn't want to go on a killing spree on humans.

Ban was a little confused, "What's wrong? Anyone standing in front of you is the enemy. Isn't it natural to kill the enemy?"

"No!" Elizabeth quickly shook her head: "Everyone was deceived by bad people, so..."

"Little sister, it is not advisable to 'want and have both'. If you want to regain the power that belongs to the Lyonnese family, it is impossible without bloodshed." Marlene said lightly: "Naivety is a good thing, but remaining naive is a bad thing, because then

It means stupid."

"I...I..." Elizabeth didn't know what to do.

In her subconscious mind, the army and the Holy Knights are also the people of the kingdom who should be protected.

"Elizabeth, Marlene is right." Meliodas comforted her gently: "It would be great to behead someone and solve the problem at its root. But if that is not possible, we can only go to war with the kingdom."

After a pause, he pretended to be relaxed and said: "When the time comes, I'll throw Escanor over at noon."

"I'm very happy." Escanor put one hand on his chest, but did not salute: "I will give them the greatest mercy at that time."

"The sun without mercy~"

"The sun without mercy~"

Jin and Ban spoke in perfect agreement.

After saying that, the two looked at each other.

After being stunned for a moment, he turned his head awkwardly.

At first glance, they look like an adolescent couple.

"Thank you everyone, I know what to do." Elizabeth has grown a lot since she first escaped from the royal capital.

She has seen all kinds of things in the world, and even killed people with her own hands.

When it comes to having to fight with swords, she will not relent.

Just before that...

"I want to talk." Elizabeth's eyes were firm, "Please let me talk to the leader of the army!"

"Talk?" Meliodas was a little embarrassed, "Is it really necessary?"

"I know this is childish and even irresponsible, but I want to try my best." Elizabeth raised the corner of her mouth, "With the harp left by Lord Jon, I think I can protect myself."

"That thing is very powerful. The problem is you, Elizabeth. If the enemy is so strong that you can't even pluck the strings." Meliodas tried to dispel Elizabeth's idea of ​​negotiation.

However, Elizabeth's attitude was unexpectedly tough, "Sir Meliodas, I don't want to leave any regrets."

"Sorry..." Meliodas seemed to have thought of something.

Back then, there was a girl who was as stubborn as Elizabeth standing in front of him.

The two figures gradually overlapped.

He smiled with relief: "Okay! Let's do it then."

Turning around, "If the kingdom takes the opportunity to take action, we will start fighting directly."

"No problem, I applaud with both hands!" Ban was extremely happy.

Escanor smiled and said nothing.

Jin Ze seemed a little hesitant and raised his hand weakly: "Just the seven of us, okay?"

It's not that he doesn't have confidence in the strength of his companions.

The main reason is that after more than ten years, everyone's fighting spirit has almost been worn away.

Escanor is as strong as it gets, but it has a time limit.

The leader and the class even lost their artifacts.

I think Diane and Gowther on Marlene's side are similar.

Do the math.

There's no advantage.

"It's not seven, it's eight, oh no, ten." Meliodas hugged Hawk with a smile. "Don't underestimate the strength of the leader of the Leftovers Disposal Knights!"

Seeing this, Jin was even less confident.

And deep down, he didn't really care who was in charge of the Kingdom of Leonis.

After confronting Madara, all he could think about was getting to the 'City of the Dead' as soon as possible to find out the truth about that year.
