I do not own Seven Deadly Sins/Nanatsu no Taizai. What I said in chapter 1, I will try to update at least once, each 2 weeks, same for other stories. military time, 0:00-23:59
(Day 2, 5:00)
Sophia wake up it's 5.
`Already?`
Yep, get up, or else I'll drag you out. With your armor.
`Which do you want to do first, magic, or sword fighting?`
Magic, you need to brush up on your sword skills.
10 minutes later...
"Hey Merlin, I'm with you first," Antonio said, when he got to Merlin's tower.
"Okay, so which do you want to do first? Enchantments, and magical objects; teleportation, and barriers; or other," Merlin said.
"What about demonic magic, Gowther taught you?"
"That's not for beginners, so?"
"Okay, magical objects."
"Grab an object, then I'll tell you what to do."
Meanwhile...
"Sophia, your with me first?" Meliodas asked.
"Yeah, Antonio wanted to do magic for reasons that I might not want to know," Sophia said flatly.
"Okay, so right now you'll be dueling Gilthunder, and I'll evaluate your skills," Meliodas explained.
"That's probably the fanciest, and most etiquette things I've ever heard you say," Sophia insulted.
"Whatever, just duel."
"Hey Gilthunder, if Margaret comes by, I'll lose on purpose, okay."
Gilthunder turned extremely red, and turned away.
Back to Antonio...
"I chose this mirror," Antonio said, carrying a mirror larger than himself.
"Isn't that a bit big?" Merlin asked.
"Only one I could find," Antonio shot back, and that's what she said.
"Okay, so concentrate on the object, say what you want the object to do, and imbue magic into it."
"Okay. Metaférete ton chrísti brostá apó tin anaklastikí epifáneia stin opoía epithymoún na perásoun mésa apó aftón ton kathréfti(Transport the user in front of the reflective surface they wish to go to through this mirror.)," Antonio incanted in Greek. He then thought about where to go, and then vanished.
(Antonio's POV)
I imagined standing in front of Carl's bathroom mirror. I was glad that that Carl(5' 8", a bit lighter skin than me, and looks like he could be my brother) wasn't here because he was in a summer camp for quantum physics, and stuff. While Carl was gone, I bided my time on his computer, reading manga, and listening to music from the 60's-80's. I sat in his living room, making random devices, and experimenting with chemical mixtures. I printed out many things I may be able to use in Britannia. I am so happy Carl is like me. The 'you never know' guy.
When Carl came in, and saw me he freaked out, and I was "randomly" recording while he came in. "How did you get in? I never gave you keys to my apartment!" Carl screamed.
"I'll just keep that tape," I said with a smug smirk on my face.
"Seriously though, how did you get in?"
"I teleported."
"What?" Carl made a gesture from 'Friends' a 90's sitcom, that means Fuck, or the middle finger, I get mixed up.
"I went to a different dimension. I went to Britannia, and it was the Seven Deadly Sins, Britannia. So I met Merli, and she showed me how to enchant items, and here I am."
"What the actual fuck?"
"Yeah, yeah. Hey do you have a reflective surface of some sort?"
"Yeah, two actually. Why?"
"I have an idea, give me both."
Carl went, and got two identical, 3 by 3 in mirrors, and had them encased in two black boxes. "Here."
"Okay, so I am going to enchant this so we can communicate," I explained, but I couldn't believe he was this compliant, "I got the Idea from a few things. Also this takes a lot of concentration so try not to disturb."
"Got it, and the spell might work even better because are what they called twin mirrors."
"If the user is near his, or her mirror they can contact the user of the twin mirror," I incanted in Latin. After I enchanted it I felt tired, and almost blacked out on Carl's couch.
"You tired?"
"Yeah, but I think I can't do another incantation, so can you?"
"Maybe, just tell me how."
"So choose the desired object, then incant whatever you want it to do, it doesn't have to be in a different language though. It takes a lot of concentration," I said, my eyelids heavy, "Incant this on your bathroom mirror, 'Transport the user in front of the reflective surface they wish to go to through this mirror', okay?"
"'Kay," He said, then went to the bathroom, and five minutes came back, tired, "I think I did it. I'm tired."
"Okay, that probably means you did it. So take this mirror."
"Okay."
I went to his bathroom, and imagined Merlin's laboratory, and appeared in front of the mirror, and held the black box that held the mirror.
"So, how was it?" Merlin asked.
"How long was it?"
"Maybe four hours."
"Okay, it worked, but now I'm more tired because I enchanted two more things," I said, "I need to sleep, or something."
"I'll send you to the training grounds."
"Okay, just send me," I muttered, right before I appeared where Sophia was training. I walked over to a nearby wall, and just sat there.
(Sophia's POV)
I saw Antonio randomly appear, and sat down against a stone wall. I was still dueling Gilthunder, and decided to try harder so I could get this over with I used a move Antonio taught me. I backed up, then ran to Gilthunder's left, and he parried my attack, but I used my leg to kick him in the side(right below Gilthunder's ribs) which hindered him for a few seconds. I then kneed him where his ribs started to separate, which knocked the wind out of him, and made him defenseless, and I leveled my sword at his throat.
"Are we done," I asked Meliodas.
"Yeah, for like two hours."
"Okay, great." I walked over to Antonio, who seemed exhausted.
"Hey Sophia, you're done with training, or on a break?"
"On a two hour break. How are you this exhausted?"
"Um, I don't know? Maybe because I enchanted three things, and that was the first time I've used magic."
"Okay, and?"
"I enchanted things to be ale to do trans-dimensional things."
"Now that makes more sense."
"I'm going to take a small nap now."
"Okay."
"Wake me up in an hour, and thirty minutes from when I sleep."
"Got it."
I walked over to where Gilthunder is, and saw him drink water, and clutch is stomach.
"Hey, where'd you learn that?" he asked.
"Antonio," I replied, and pointed towards Antonio.
"Is he your brother, or something."
"God brother," I corrected.
"Okay, why is he sleeping?"
"Enchanted items that work across dimensions."
"Makes sense I guess..." Gilthunder said.
1 hour, 30 minutes later, and present tense...
"Antonio wake up!" I yell, but he barely stirs. `Antonio fucking wake up!`
this time he vanishes, there is a small gust of wind, and taps me on the head. "I'm up, okay."
"Whatever," I say, very irritated.
"Antonio!" Meliodas yells.
"What do you want?"
"You're training with me now!"
"Great."
"Sophia you come with me," Merlin says, appearing in the air.
"See ya!" Antonio calls out.
(Antonio's POV. Present tense)
"Antonio fight Gilthunder, so I can see your skills," Meliodas ordered.
"Fine, Gilthunder, are you ready to get wrecked?" I taunt.
"I'm not!" Gilthunder fumes.
"Okay, whatever let's start."
We are in our battle stance, and I'm tossing around the blade, seeing it's weight, while Gilthunder is in a proper stance.
"Start!" announces Meliodas.
I end the match quickly, by throwing my sword at Gilthunder, which distracts him, and then grab his wrists, then put both in one hand, then pick up my sword, having it rest on his collar bone.
"That was quick," comments Meliodas, "Who taught you?"
"I'm self taught."
"What about the move you taught Sophia?" Gilthunder asks.
"Oh that, one of my classmates did it to me in the morning once."
"That's nice..."
"Oh, and the other one he did to me during class. Yeah my class has sadists, sociopaths, and psychopaths, but my school has sadists, masochists, psychopaths, sociopaths, yeah I nickname it 'The school for children with fucked up minds'."
"Okay, didn't need to know the entire thing."
"I've got an idea, lets prank Merlin, and Sophia!" I say.
"How Antonio, Merlin would sense our presence."
"But what if we could hide that presence?"
"How, once more?"
"Enchantments, I've been able to do some trans-dimension stuff with it so I think if I make it specific, then I won't use up as much energy, so we can sneak up on them two."
"But how would we get in?"
"More enchantments, like I could make a dagger be able to teleport someone within a five mile radius, and I assume Meliodas you have access to many weapons?"
"Yep, and how would we do the presence hiding thing? Like what do we use?"
"A cloak, that could make us one invisible, and two mask our presence so even Merlin can't sense us."
"Great, but could we make it not be able to be canceled out by magic?"
"Yeah I guess, but each of you'll do that individually so I'll have to teach you to enchant, which could be exhausting, or maybe not since it won't be as tiring."
"Okay, great!"
"Meliodas get three daggers," I tell him.
"Okay, and I'll gt the cloaks."
15 minutes later...
"Okay I got them," Meliodas says, as he arrives with the items.
"Give me the daggers first."
"Here." Meliodas held out the daggers.
"Teleport the user anywhere within a ten mile radius, make the item indestructible, and immune to absolute cancel," I incanted both Meliodas's, and Gilthunder's, then I incanted mine, "alnaql ean baed lilmustakhdam fi 'ayi makan dakhil dayirat nsf qataraha eshrt 'amyal , wajaeal aleunsur ghyr qabil liltadmir , mhsnana min al'iilgha' almutlaq , wajaeal almustakhdam mhsnana min al'iilgha' almutlaq , wayakun qadrana ealaa qate 'ayi shay' mithl alzubdat , wayumkin mudaeafat aleidad alkamil bieasharat 'adeaf(Arabic, so look it up on google translate)."
"Okay, why was yours longer?" Gilthunder asks.
"Because I get to enchant the items, now the cloaks you will do yourself," I say, "Concentrate magic into the object, as you say what you want it to be enchanted with. Gilthunder you first."
"Make the user invisible, and undetectable, and this object is immune to absolute cancel." Gilthunder, after he enchanted the item he fell back tired
"Good, now Meliodas your turn."
He practically copied Gilthunder, but wasn't as tired.
"Okay, now my turn. Make the user invisible, undetectable, absolute cancel does not work on this object, nor the user, and this is resistant to magical attacks," I incant, and I feel a bit tired.
"Seriously?" Gilthunder asks accusingly.
"Hey you weren't creative enough to make it better, so don't blame me."
"Okay, fine you win."
"Now, let's go prank them," I say, as we put our cloaks on, and teleport inside, to find Merlin, Vivian, and Sophia. we each slowly creep up on one each, Meliodas, has Merlin; Gilthunder, Vivian; and I, Sophia. We grab them, and hold them against the wall, and they freak out. When we got the reaction, we took our hoods off, then started laughing or heads off.
"How did you get in without me knowing?" Merlin demands.
"Magic," I respond.
"How did we not sense your presence?"
"Magic."
"How were you invisible?"
"Magic," I respond for the third time.
"How specifically did you use magic to do those three things?"
"We enchanted daggers s we could teleport anywhere within a ten mile radius, and made enchanted the cloaks to one mask our presence, and two be invisible."
"How are you not as tired as before?"
"I didn't make it do anything for cross-dimensional use."
"How have I not thought of any of that?"
"I don't know? Lack of creativity," I insult.
"Anyways, you just interrupted our lesson," she grunts.
"Yeah, but it's just a prank bro!" I say before teleporting out, and Meliodas followed suit.
When we met up we resumed our training, with wooden swords. We stopped when it hit 17:00.
(3rd person, past tense)
"We're done!" Meliodas announced.
"Okay!"
"We are probably going to be scolded by my dad," Gilthunder said.
"If we do I'll take most of the blame," Antonio said.
"Why?"
"Because I was being a bad influence, and stuff."
"Okay, see you tomorrow!" Meliodas waves, "Same time!"
`Seriously Antonio?`
What?
`Did you have to prank us?`
It was fun.
`Whatever.`
