THE SEVEN DEADLY SINS
GRUDGE OF EDINBURGH PART 1

NORTHERN BRITANNIA - LIONES KINGDOM

- How's that?
- Too easy.

Be careful, you two.

You know what?
You're pretty good at this, aren't you?

You're not so bad yourself.

Of course.

That's what happens when you've got a dad
like Meliodas of the Seven Deadly Sins.

Well, in that case,

I don't think I have to remind you
who my father is, do I?

This is so fun.



It feels like...

...my heart won't stop pounding.

What's happening?

My head...

My blood feels
like it's on fire.

Hey.

Prince Tristan!

Prince Tristan!

He wasn't out in the courtyard.

Are you sure?
Because he isn't in his room either.

Prince Tristan!

We searched inside
and outside the castle,

but we couldn't find him.

What shall we do
about this, King Meliodas?



Gone again, huh?

Wonder where he could be now.

Whoa! Whoa!

Impressive.

Your horsemanship's
already quite respectable.

I wouldn't have come this far
without all of your help, Gowther.

From the looks of it,
I have nothing left to teach you.

No way.
Feels like I'm just getting started.

There's so much I wanna learn.

You aren't gonna leave the castle
anytime soon, are you?

I'll still be around
for a little while longer.

But more importantly,

should you be out riding horses
with me right now?

Captain... Uh,

I mean,
your father is expecting you, isn't he?

Yeah, but it's okay.

You sure about that?

Uh... uh...

Is there something on your mind?

No, it's nothing. I'm all right.

It's just...

- What was that?
- Let's find out.

You're all right, you're all right.

Hey! What happened?

It's Prince Tristan!

One of the carriage wheels came loose.

These two were thrown off.

Just hang in there.
Tell me where it hurts.

Hmm.

It seems this man severed
his extensor carpi radialis longus muscle.

The other broke his right costal
and ensiform cartilage.

We need to get them both
to Hendrickson's medical center...

Understood!

Hey. Are you all right?

I'm fine.

He's okay.

I see.

It seems he's inherited
his mother's powers.

Enjoy.

We'll be okay. Thank you.

Now...

Why eat together
when we're so far apart?

I agree. This is much better.

So why'd you skip practice today?

There was a big accident in town,

and I was helping the people
who were hurt.

Be honest.

You were out riding
with Gowther, weren't you?

But I really did help
those people.

And yesterday?

Um...

Well, that's when Hendy
was teaching me how to make medicine.

I can heal wounds,
but I can't cure diseases like Mother.

So I wanted to try and learn
how to treat them. That's when...

Since when did you become
a pharmacist, Tristan?

Your dream was to become
a Holy Knight one day

and fight against the evil in this world.

Y... yeah, but that was back
when I was only a kid.

Pretty sure you still are one.

You're never gonna understand
how I feel, Father!

Hmm?

Excuse me.

Someone, help!

Are you okay?

Tristan, that power, what is it?

You're hurt. What'd I do?

What happened?

It was Prince Tristan, my king.

I'm gonna be all right.

I don't understand.

I didn't mean to do it.

I'm sorry! I'm sorry!

There you are.

Mother.

What's bothering you?

I don't need to be a Holy Knight
who fights bad guys, right?

Can't I be one who tries
to help people out

who are suffering instead?

That's a wonderful idea.

And it's so very like you.

Yeah. I mean, the Holy Knights are about
a whole lot more than just fighting.

But Tristan,

what if there comes a time when that's
the only way you're able to help somebody?

What would you do then?

It's not always easy,

and your father knows that
better than anyone.

If it's bothering you,

why don't you just sit with him
and talk about it?

Good night, Mother.

Trist...

ALPA FOREST

Watch out!

Who are they?

Stop!

Gandf!

What... what will we do?

Ugh! I can't believe the nerve
of those savage brutes!

They put Daddy in a cage.

Wait, hold on.

No! If you start crying,
they're gonna find us!

Huh?

Looks like they found us.

I think it's time to go.

I'm stuck!

Who's there?

Thank you for rescuing us, kind stranger.

So the rumors were actually true.

Huh? Who are you?

And what do you mean by rumors?

I heard that there's a strange group

that's been going
into Giant and Fairy villages,

attacking each one
and taking the villagers.

They're gonna take Daddy
and the others away?

Probably so.

Uh, we have to go and rescue them!

Are you crazy?

We're outnumbered.

If we left, we'd just be captured.

Yeah, but at this rate, Recela's gonna be...

Daddy.

Guess they found us.

It's time for us to get out of here.

We'll worry about the others later.

Wait up!

EDINBURGH CASTLE

Please let us go!

Let us out!

You gotta get me out of here!

Why are you holding us captive
like this?

You need to calm down.

I'll free you from this place soon enough.

You're never gonna get away with this!

You understand me, human?

But why are there
all these demons in here too?

Staff of Chaos,
please reveal your true power to me.

Lowly races who dare defile mankind,

on this fateful night every one of you
shall be reborn

and become my loyal servants!

Magnificent.

Priest, the time has come.

Take action once things have been readied.

Of course.

Empty!

Continue to seize non-humans
from across the land

and bring them to me.

I'm finally able to exact my revenge.

And soon, I will begin with them.

Prince Tristan! Prince Tristan!

It's an emergency!
So, please wake up!

Five more minutes.

Queen Elizabeth is in trouble!

Wait! What about my mother?

She collapsed a moment ago.

Prince Tristan!

- Mother!
- Oh, please.

Hold on!

Prince Tristan!

How did she end up like this?

What happened to her?

Earlier this morning
she started feeling some pain,

and then she just passed out.

But she seemed perfectly fine last night.

Hendy, do you think she could be sick?

No. I've given her all kinds of medicine,

but none of them are working.

I think somebody
may have put a curse on her.

An extremely powerful one.

But who would want to do that, and why?

You can't use your druid magic
to cure her?

I tried, but it didn't work.

Lady Elizabeth could probably break
the curse easily using her own magic,

but in her condition...

Let me try.

Tristan.

I'm gonna rescue you, Mother.

Where am I?

Huh. He's right. Somebody did this to her.

Who's there?

I want answers.

It's your turn.

Now you'll pay.

What is it, Priest?

It would appear
that someone has detected me.

What?

Could it be Meliodas?

No.

This was different.

The magic felt much weaker than his.

It's nothing to worry about, then.

All right?

That must have been some random wizard.

So you can continue casting the spell.

Yes, sir.

We have to be persistent.

I want them suffering
in anguish even more.

Are you okay?

I can't break the curse.

I'm not powerful enough.

Listen, you should get some rest now.

No!

So what's all the commotion about?

Tristan!

Aren't you energetic.

- Gowther!
- Hmm?

I can sense it.

I know what direction
that curse is coming from.

Oh. Prince Tristan!

I will save Mother,
no matter what it takes!

Though I can't pinpoint
his exact location,

Tristan seems to be heading east.

East, huh? Why would he be going there?

Elizabeth!

Meliodas.

Stop Tristan before...

Stay with me!

Long ago I read something
in an ancient book.

To break a powerful curse like this,
there are two methods.

The first is with the healing power
of the Goddess race.

And the second is an age-old remedy
used by the Fairy race.

Fairy race?

Sparkle!

THE FAIRY KING'S FOREST

Did you hear what happened?
Alpa Forest was attacked too!

Yeah, I did. That's so scary.

I wonder if we're gonna be next.

Now there's no need to worry

'cause we have the Fairy King
and we have the Giant here, so...

Your Highness!

Queen Diane!

Hey, you guys.

You haven't seen my kids
around here, have you?

I just saw them right over there,
by the stream.

Really?

Do you want us to help you look?

Thank you!

I swear. They keep on skipping breakfast.

What is with them?

Time for me to...

Elizabeth!

What happened?

BENOIC KINGDOM

Are you all right, Ban?

Yeah.

I was just thinking about him.

Wondering where he is now
and what he must be up to.

Hey, don't worry.
Lancelot is your son, after all.

Oh, when you're right, you're right.

Is there something wrong?

The hell?

Just as I thought.

It's east.
That's where they're all headed.

So how are we supposed to save everyone?

Well, I've got a plan.

Oh! I wanna know what it is.

Go on, you can tell Kulumil.

Please?

You're being too loud.

So, keep it down
or they're gonna hear you.

Be quiet, you two!

It's this way. I'm sure of it.

But now I wonder what could be up ahead.

Help!

Wh... what's going on?
What are those children running from?

Wait, stop! That's enough!

We'll do what you say.
Don't attack us, we surrender!

Huh?

Are you kidding me?
What do you think you're doing?

Are we... are we gonna get captured?

I already told you guys I had a plan.

So just follow my lead and...

Don't move!

Stay away from them!

Huh?

It's him.

That was close!

Those guys almost saw me land flat
on my face.

You've been chasing after these poor,
innocent children,

and I won't stand for it.

Idiot! Bad idea!

I will be the one to face you!

Tristan, a Holy Knight!

Huh?

Hey, you can't just fire on somebody
when they're in the middle of a speech!

Where are your manners?

Seriously?

Now, fight me fair and square!

Stop that! It'll attack again!

Put your weapon away!

I'm a Holy Knight, and we never surrender!

Full Cou...

Hey, that's too high!

Too low!

Hey! Can't you aim
a little closer to the middle?

You... you have any idea
what he's doing out there?

No.

All right.

Full Counter!

He reflected the attack.

Wow!

So that's Full Counter, huh?

Yes, I did it.

Don't worry. You're safe now!

I just taught this monster a lesson.

It's never gonna do something
like that again.

Look out! Behind you!

Huh?

If you wanna make sure they're dead,
you've gotta finish the job, dummy!

Uh, wh... wh... what did you do?

Come on!
You didn't need to kill that thing!

Whoa.

Nothing's in there.

It's totally empty on the inside,

which means it must've been controlled
by some kind of magic.

Did you really think
it was gonna listen to you about manners?

Look,
I really don't appreciate that.

I was only trying to help you guys out.

- We didn't need your help.
- Huh?

I was gonna get them caught on purpose

so we could cross into enemy territory
and take down whoever's behind all this.

You would've put us in danger like that?

Just for a little while.

A little while?

Hmm?

Oh, sorry.

People who we all really care about
were just taken away

by the same group of monsters.

But why would they wanna do that?

Where are they?
And what are these things, anyway?

Uh, um...

If we knew that,
then we wouldn't be in this mess.

There's a lot about this
we don't understand,

but he told us the same thing's happened

to a whole bunch
of Giants and Fairies lately.

Yup, that's right.

I have managed to figure out
which way they're headed, though.

Really?

Yeah. They're moving east of us.

East, huh?

If it's okay, would you mind
if I were to come along with you guys?

Wow.

The great Prince of Liones
wants to join us for a little adventure.

Well, forget it
'cause this isn't some kind of game.

It's not a game to me, either.

I also have a reason for going out there,

and it's important to me!

Oh, really?

Be quiet, you big oaf!

Um, hello there.

My name is Kulumil, the fairy.

Pleasure to meet you.

Uh, um, my name's Tristan.

Fate must have brought us here together.

It's like a blessing from the gods
themselves, wouldn't you say?

Guess so.

My name's Minika!

And I'm Tyrone.

I can tell
we're all gonna get along.

- You look really strong.
- Whatever.

By the way, what's his name?

Come to think of it,
I don't think he ever told us.

Huh? So you all just met each other?

Mm-hmm. I've never seen him
around the forest until today.

He showed up when we were being attacked
by that monster and saved us.

Mm-hmm.

Anyway, I wanna know a little more
about you, Prince Tristan!

Y... you do, huh?

So are you really the prince of Liones?

Yeah. Do...

A prince on a white stallion!

That's so cute.

We're different races,

but still, I just know the two of us
would make such a happy couple.

Yes. Like the fairy-world legends.

King Ban the human
and Lady Elaine the beautiful fairy.

I think I'm starting to blush.

Hey, so who are you really?

With those bow skills,
you don't seem like most fairies.

What does it matter to you who I am?

That scar.

Hmm?

Nothing! Sorry.

Well, in any case,

I sure wish we knew exactly
where those things are headed.

- You haven't figured that out yet?
- Huh?

Further east of this place,

there aren't any Human, Giant,
or Fairy settlements.

Only one thing's left.

Edinburgh.

A kingdom that was destroyed by vampires
over 20 years ago.

The Vampires of Edinburgh?

I've heard of them.

They were all destroyed.

Father and the Seven Deadly Sins
took them down.

- Yeah, that's right.
- Hmm?

And then, six or seven years later,
the whole thing was rebuilt

when the remaining survivors
and their allies

took back the fallen realm.

I had no idea about that.

Liones doesn't have any contact with them.

It makes sense.

Edinburgh collapsed again soon after.

Huh?

One of the survivors who was
in charge of re-establishing their domain

eventually became its new king.

But he wouldn't work
with any races other than Humans,

persecuting Fairies, Giants,

and any others
who lived in the surrounding area.

Eventually, the people
who once fought so closely beside him

ran out of patience
and left Edinburgh forever.

Even though he became a king
without any subjects to rule,

he still clung on to the throne.

Hm.

I see. He sounds sad.

Wonder what could've led up to this.

He was a Holy Knight.

It has to be done.

I need to prove that even humans
have the ability to slay an ancient demon.

Lord Denzel,
are you really going through with this?

Don't worry.

I'm ready to pay the price.

For our kingdom's very future,

I willingly offer these old bones to thee.

Manifest!

Oh, please!

I'm begging for you to help us.

To fight the Demon race,

the one whose body you inhabit
gave up his life.

I refuse.

But why?

The monster who took Lord Denzel's life.

The evil being who brainwashed us,

controlling our every move.

How could I ever serve in a kingdom
where the king and queen who rule it

are a Demon and a Goddess?

I will make a country of my own.

One made only for humans.

Lord Deathpierce.

What is it?

After searching for those
who dared to destroy an Empty,

I found them.

Really?

They're just a group of children.

That's remarkable!

He's truly the spitting image of them.

Till now, I had only heard the rumors.

He's jumping into the fire
to try and rescue his suffering mother!

To see Meliodas in agony,

I cursed the one person in this world
I knew he couldn't live without,

but this way, I'll be able
to cause him even more torment.

Knight, Mage, begin.

Hey, that's it. Edinburgh Castle.

It has to be.

I can feel the one
who put that curse on my mother.

- Hey, down there.
- Huh?

Huh?

It's Daddy!

Now, we made it out here,
but it's time for the hard part.

'Course if it weren't
for some idiotic prince,

the four of us would be inside that cage
and heading straight for the castle.

We can't risk going through the front

'cause we don't know how many
of those things are inside that place.

But the back might be... Hang on.

Are you listen...

Hey! What are you doing?

I have to try and save everyone!

Twinkling stars, carry out justice!

Falling Star!

Good.

You are so amazing!

Kulumil feels more inspired than ever!

Uh...

What was all that about, you big dummy?

Here's an idea.

Maybe you should try thinking ahead
before doing something stupid!

You're gonna blow it for the rest of us.

So stop trying
to take them on yourself, got it?

Hey, you guys?

- I hate to interrupt, but look!
- Huh?

Hurry and reflect them back
with your Bull Counter!

No, it's full, not bull.

Full Counter!

See that? I got two in a row!

Maybe you oughta try reflecting them all!

Hey, I'm going the best I can!

Getting the timing down isn't easy!

Well, it looks like they're not gonna
let you use your Bull Counter anymore.

It's Full Counter!

And I'm ready!

Twinkle Star!

The magic controlling them
has disappeared.

Or was it purged?

Hey, you know what? You're not bad.

Hmm?

Yeah. Feels good.

That sensation's gone.

I can handle those things, now.

Moron! Pay attention!

Huh?

Prince Tristan!

What is this?

Daddy!

- Recela!
- Minika!

You're all right!

Are you the ones who set us free?

No, it wasn't us.

These two are the ones who saved you.

Well, uh, just at the right place
in the right time, I guess.

I must thank you, brave travelers.

Oh, I don't think we've met before.

You must be
from another forest, aren't you?

You guys need to gather up your children
and leave here just as soon as you can.

But there have to be
more prisoners here like us.

Ones who are still trapped in that castle.

Don't worry. I'll take care of it.

I'm coming with you.

I thought you were here
for something else.

I mean, yeah, I am.

But as a Holy Knight,
I can't just ignore other people in need.

Is that so?

We'll help too. Any way we can.

Right.

This is gonna be harder
than anything we've faced so far.

Do you really wanna stay out here
and put your children in danger?

Daddy.

Very well, then.

Thank you.

You take good care of your dad.

Huh.

Now, go!

This way!

Prince Tristan!

All right. Let's do this.

So you're a little weird,
aren't you?

Yeah? How?

Hmm.

I'm not sure what it is,
but you don't act like the other fairies.

Almost seems like you're human, to me.

You think so, huh?

Well, you're right,
'cause I am a little different.

What's this magic
I'm sensing from them?

It's not just
the Fairy or Giant kind.

There's something dark mixed in.

What's that?

It's you!

Hey!

You won't be going any further.

Get out of my way!

Damn!

Come back here!

What's going on?

What was in there?

It was the one who put a powerful curse
on my mother.

I saw him.

Your mom's been cursed?

Well, for right now,

we've gotta take those two out first!

Calm down!

There's no way you can do any damage
with tiny swords like those.

No, 'cause this one's mine!

Tristan!

Star Breaker!

Well, look at you go...

I think you should be worrying
about your own well-being right now.

How unfortunate.

Instead of an opponent who's truly worthy,

I have to face
a weak-looking fairy like you.

Maybe this won't be a total loss.

The least you can do is die in a way
that's somewhat entertaining.

Well, you're much faster
than I thought you were,

and it's starting to get on my nerves.

I'm afraid you've reached the end.

You'll no longer be able to see me.

Unfortunately,
that includes my attacks as well.

What will you do?

You can't run from me.

I know exactly where you are.

And I'll never tell you when it's coming.

You'll simply die
before putting up any resistance,

submitting to the full power of my wrath.

Terrifying, isn't it?

Of course I won't kill you all at once.

I want you to suffer first.

What?
How is he dodging my attacks like that?

So irritating!

Oh.

You think you'll hit me by aiming blindly?

Go ahead and try!

How? That's impossible!

You shouldn't be able to see me at all.

If you really want to know,
then I'll tell you.

I'm that strong.

It's pretty simple.

What?

They were also captured,

which means that thing was too.

Hey, Tristan! If you destroy...

What is that idiot doing now?

My blood feels hot.
My pulse is racing.

My head's starting to feel numb too.

This sensation.

If I keep on fighting,
it's just gonna happen again.

No.
I won't be myself, and I'll lose control.

I know it.

And I'll probably end up hurting him!

Tristan, move!

Hmm?

You!

I guess it's also too big
for these arrows to work.

Get back! This thing's too powerful!

You don't think I have what it takes, huh?

Yeah. Well, I'm full of surprises.

Huh?

Are you...?

It can't be.

Lancelot?
