Chapter 11: Necropolis
Hadrian walks towards the Boar Hat Tavern alone because King said he had something to do before rejoining the Sins.
Oh well, when he does it he can join Hadrian thought as he walks through the town.
While walking Hadrian saw Diane laughing at something, what it was he didn't know.
Odd, wonder what it is, Hadrian thought as he went towards Diane.
Once reaching Diane, Hadrian saw Ban standing in a field of pink flowers covering the entire area
"Yeah that is so not you Ban" Meliodas agrees chuckling
"What's going on?" Hadrian ask curious
"Ban was standing in a field of pink flowers," Hawk says, looking at the pink flowers closely.
"Oh yeah guess what Harry?" Diane says excitedly
"What?" Hadrian asks curious
"We found King" Diane says excitedly
"It's not King! It's some little kid who says he is!" Ban protests
"No its King, I asked him something only King and I know and he was really embarrassed and told me the answer" Hadrian replied
"Wait so that skinny kid really was King!?" Ban exclaims shocked
Before Hadrian could answer Hawk blows one of the flowers which sent the petals flying which soon led to all of the petals flying upwards before circling everyone like a tornado
"What the fuck is going on!?" Hadrian exclaimed confused
"Language!" Diane scolds.
As the petal tornado stops everyone is shocked to see the area is completely different
"Where are we?" Diane asks amazed by the scenery
"I think we're in Necropolis" Meliodas answers
Ban then says something and runs off, everyone then noticed King flying after Ban
"What the hell is King doing in Necropolis?" Hadrian asks confused
"I don't know Harry" Meliodas admits confused
"I think we should go after them" Hadrian suggests
"Yeah, let's go," Meliodas agrees.
Meliodas, Hadrian, Diane, Hawk and Elizabeth go to look for King and Ban.
Walking through Necropolis the group can't find any signs of King and Ban
"King! Ban!" Diane calls out as the group continues to walk
"Sir Ban!" Elizabeth calls out
"Whatever grabbed their attention seems to be incredibly important if they are willing to run around an area we have no idea about" Hadrian comments
"What could be so important?" Elizabeth asks confused
"This is the land of the dead, take a guess" Hadrian stated
Meliodas hums scratching his chin.
Hadrian's eyes widen when seeing a familiar set of hair disappear off in the distance
No it can't be Hadrian thought as he chased after the owner
"Sir Hadrian!" Elizabeth calls out and the group sees Hadrian running off
"Harry, where are you going!?" Meliodas and Diane calls out confused
But before they could chase after him he was already gone
"What the hell was that!?" Hawk demands confused
"Guys, I don't think were alone" Meliodas informed the group as he looks around as if he's searching for someone
"What? I don't see anyone out here but us" Elizabeth says looking around confused
"Yeah there hasn't been a ghost that appeared and tried to scare us" Hawk comments
"Wah? There's ghosts?" Elizabeth says fearful as she clings to Meliodas
"There obviously no point in staying here so l-let's look around for those three" Hawk says nervously
"Sounds good to me" Elizabeth comments nervously
"Why do you think grabbed Sir Hadrian's attention?" Elizabeth asks after several minutes of searching for the three Sins
The group then stops when they see a young lady with black hair and a white outfit with a rapier by her side
"Hello Meliodas the Dragon Sin? How do you do Diane the Serpent Sin?" The young lady asks nicely
"My name is Guila a Holy Knight" Guila introduces herself
"Wait, how did a Holy Knight get here?" Hawk asks confused
"Simple, by dying" Guila says shocking the group
"Did she just say she got here by dying?" Hawk says shocked and confused
"She sure did" Meliodas confirmed
"That means this lady is bad news if she's willing to kill herself to get to us" Hawk says worried
"Actually I think she is only here for the Sins, not us" Elizabeth comments
"You will learn of my goals when I desire to" Guila says before pulling out her rapier creating a shockwave, flinging Elizabeth and Hawk back while Diane and Meliodas are unaffected.
"Hawk, take Elizabeth and get as far away as you can" Meliodas orders
"Alright get on Elizabeth. It's time for you to see a pig that can fly! Piggy truck, piggy truck, piggy truck" Hawk says running off with Elizabeth on his back
"Stay safe you two!" Elizabeth calls out as she is taken away by Hawk.
"That Guila girl is dangerous" Hawk says as he continues to run away from the Sins and Guila
"Yeah, I think so too" Elizabeth agrees
"My wild senses are telling me she is something bad" Hawk says running
"Yeah, even I felt that" Elizabeth agrees
"Really? It was not nearly as bad as when we met Hadrian though" Hawk says as he continues to run
"What?" Elizabeth says confused
"Yeah, my wild instincts were screaming at me to get as far as I could away from Hadrian, whatever he can do. It will be scary" Hawk says with a shiver
"Do you think we made it far enough?" Hawk asks as he stops
"Yeah, maybe to far" Elizabeth says worried
Just then a body smashes into one of the crystal columns shocking Hawk and Elizabeth
"Sir Meliodas?" Elizabeth calls out in shock
"What are you still doing here? Go further!" Meliodas ordered
"You have got to be kidding me!" Hawk exclaims running once more
Just then Diane falls from the sky and Meliodas jumps on a spiked crystal shard and stops Diane from getting stabbed
"Captain?" Diane asks confused when she feels Meliodas holding her
"You weigh a ton" Meliodas says struggling
"That's so mean! No wonder our relationship has problems" Diane complains pouting
"Now's not the time for this" Meliodas says annoyed
Guila hears this as she walks towards the Sins
"Diane the Serpent Sin. Possibly one of the strongest Sins in terms of physical strength. And as a giant having a close connection to the earth and possessing the magical ability 'creation'" Guila informs the Sins
"I have been looking forward to seeing it in person" Guila says
"And. What do you think?" Diane asks annoyed
"Franky a little disappointed, it didn't quite live up to what I heard in the stories" Guila admits dissapointed
"Then let's see how you like this" Diane says smashing her hands together before putting her knuckles to the ground
"Sand Whirl" Diane says as Guila begins to sink into the ground
"We can also turn minerals into sand, Just so you know" Diane states
"Oh I see, most informative" Guila says nonchalantly as she sinks into the ground
The sand then explodes and Guila jumps into the air
Diane gets angry and destroys a piece of the crystals and throws at Guila, upon reaching her Guila explodes the crystal sending Diane back as she lands on the ground.
Meliodas then charges at Guila who dodges before Meliodas could hit her and she strikes at Meliodas who blocks the attack creating a minor shockwave destroying the ground below them.
"And then there's the Legendary Captain of the Eight Deadly Sins, your might does indeed live up to the story and seem to be the real thing. But it's odd, I see you aren't using your sword" Guila says, looking at the dragon handle holstered on Meliodas' back.
"Do you think your bare hands can stop my blade!?" Guila demands as she charges at Meliodas
"Ok, I guess I can show you something" Meliodas says with a smile
Guila then fires a ball of fire which Meliodas hits with his broken bladed sword sending it back to Guila
"Ah I see, your magical ability is Full Counter, if there's any offensive magic directed at you then it will be sent back to the caster at double strength, fascinating. In short the more powerful your opponent the more fearsome its effects are" Guila says impressed.
"But it's one weakness is not being able to initiate an attack" Guila says
"Ah, I see. You knew that so you were holding back weren't you?" Meliodas says impressed
"Come now, both of you. Time to try harder. After all I did kill myself to be here" Guila says
Running through the Necropolis Hadrian finally sees the one person he has wanted to see in such a long time
"It's good to see you again" The person says with a smile
"Hello. Dad" Hadrian sees with tears in his eyes
"You have grown these past ten years" Zaratras says with a smile
"And you didn't change for shit" Hadrian teased
"Oh, language" Zaratras lightly scolds
Just then an explosion happened
"A Holy Knight?" Hadrian asks shocked
"It would seem so, I am proud of you Hadrian" Zaratras says with a smile
"Even when I lost control?!" Hadrian asks with his fists clenched
"You had no idea it was possible. And you did it for the right reasons, even if you did cause a large amount of damage" Zaratras says chuckling
"Thank you, Dad" Hadrian says grateful
"I am so proud of you, I just wish you weren't ignored by your parents because of your twin sister" Zaratras says putting his hand on Hadrian's cheek
"You saw?" Hadrian asks surprised
"All of it, I wanted to see what made you the person you are today" Zaratras replies
"What made me the person I am today was you and the Sins" Hadrian says proudly
"And I'm happy to hear that, make me proud. Son" Zaratras says with tears in his eyes
"Thank you, should I tell the others you say hi?" Hadrian ask curious
"Yes, and some of the Holy Knights intend to bring the Demon Race back" Zaratras wants
"What?" Hadrian asks shocked
"Yes, you have to stop them before they can succeed" Zaratras states
"Got it" Hadrian nods
Soon an explosion is heard from a distance and a shockwave shook everything nearby
"Looks like you have to save them" Zaratras teased
"What can I say? I'm the strongest Sin at the moment" Hadrian laughed as he ran towards the fighting.
"This is the Legendary order?" Guila asks shaking her head disappointed
Meliodas and Ban charge at Guila while Diane remains on the ground as she lies down tired.
Ban goes to kick Guila only for her to shoot a fireball, Meliodas then goes to strike her only for her to smokescreen him and then kick him in the face.
Guila then turns around and stabs Ban in the throat who tried to grab her
"In the end I suppose Legends are nothing more than fantasy in the end" Guila says before the ground beneth her cracks surprising her
Guila turns around to see a young man with black hair
"And who are you?" Guila asks kicking Ban back
"Hehe, your fucked now" Ban laughs
"Oh, am I not that well known?" Hadrian pouts before it turns into a smirk
"Hmm, from what I can see you have some similarities to the wanted poster I can only guess you are Hadrian, the Phoenix Sin of Imitation" Guila guesses
"That's right, at least I'm somewhat recognizable" Hadrian chuckles
"Hadrian, Sin of Imitation. You are the 3rd strongest Sin and your magical ability is something not many people know of, in fact even I don't know about it" Guila admits
"Doubt you would need to know since I don't need to use it" Hadrian states walking towards Guila
"Cocky aren't you, I have taken down the Sins by myself, do you think you can fight me?" Guila asks curious
"Do you know how old I was before Zaratras died?" Hadrian asks curious
"Hmm, I can only assume you were in your teens" Guila says
"I was 10, 10 years old and I was that strong. How strong do you think I am now?" Hadrian asks
"The legendary order is not so legendary from what I've seen, so you're certainly no different" Guila says, shooting a massive fireball at Hadrian.
Hadrian doesn't move and the fireball hits him exploding and creating a massive shockwave that nearly sends all the Sins back.
"See, he wasn't as legendary as he was said to be" Guila says before turning to the other Sins
"Why do you seem so unaffected by his death? Are you all so heartless that you do not care for the death of your comrade?" Guila asks surprised when she saw the Sins remaining passive
"It's Hadrian, he's always done the impossible" King says as he floats near the Sins
"Ah, King, the Grizzly Sin of Sloth, I'm not surprised by your betrayal but this is quite disappointing" Guila admits
"Never said I was allying myself with the Holy Knights, and besides were not your opponents" King states
"Oh?" Guila asks curious
A whistle is heard behind Guila and her eyes widen when seeing Hadrian completely fine and unaffected by her attack
"That's Hadrian for you" Ban chuckles
"Impossible, I hit him with everything I had" Guila says shocked
"Really? That was everything? Damn you should just go home because you are screwed" Hadrian chuckles
"Arrogance will not get you anywhere" Guila says charging at Hadrian.
When her rapier hit Hadrian she was expecting it to pierce him. To her complete shock the rapier snaps and Hadrian remains unaffected
"I am more than what I was when I was younger, Holy Knight, you should have assumed that when a 10 year old was as strong as multiple Holy Knights" Hadrian growled before flicking Guila which sent her flying and crashing through multiple crystal columns.
"How much stronger has he gotten?" King asks shocked by Hadrian's power
"That was quite something" Guila says as she returns to the area completely bloody and damaged
"Really? I flicked you and you're this badly damaged? Sheesh your not going to last against me" Hadrian said shaking his head
"It was luck, nothing more" Guila says calmly but you can hear slight fear in it
"Really? Hmm, I guess I will do something different then" Hadrian smiles as he snaps his finger.
"Shadow Blade" Hadrian says and several blades made of shadow appear and charge at Guila who begins to dodge them.
How is this possible? Why was he considered the third strongest when the Dragon Sin was so easy to fight? Guila thought as she dodged the blades but when she tried to destroy it her eyes widened when she saw the rapier go through the blades and the remains of the rapier were completely obliterated.
Soon she dodged another blade and her eyes widen in shock when she was face to face with Hadrian
"Goodbye Holy Knight" Hadrian says punching her directly in the face, everyone is shocked when her body was completely obliterated
"Looks like it's over" Hadrian says cracking his back
"Wow, that's Sir Hadrian's power?" Elizabeth says amazed
"Nah, that was nothing. But I am curious about that shadow blade move" Meliodas says interested
"What!? How strong is he!?" Hawk says shocked
"Considering he didn't put any effort in the fight I would say he's gotten a lot stronger than was before" Ban states.
Just then everyone began to glow gold
"What's happening!?" Hawk asks fearful as his ears began to disappear
"What's going on? It feels gross!?" Elizabeth exclaims scared
"Tell me does it feel better when I do this?" Meliodas asks groping Elizabeth's chest
"Hey get your hands off her Captain!" Diane demands before she notices she's glowing as well
"The Necropolis senses that you do not belong here, so it's pushing everyone out. That was awesome by the way" The two children from earlier say happily
"What are you two doing here?" Ban asks confused
"Hold it, were you residents of Necropolis all this time?" King asks
"The food you cooked for us was very yummy" The little girl says with a smile.
Soon everyone began to disappear and Hadrian saw Zaratras looking at him with pride in his eyes
Thank you, Dad Hadrian thought as he disappeared from Necropolis along with everyone else.
"Looks like were back in our world" Meliodas says as everyone finds themselves in the rundown town
"That place really weirded me out" Diane admits with a shiver
"Ah!" Everyone hears Elizabeth scream
The group finds Guila with her hand in her chest
"I see, she put herself in near death to get to Necropolis" Meliodas realizes
"Doesn't that mean she will be waking up soon?" Hawk asks worried
"Yeah, we should get out of here" Elizabeth suggests
"I say we kill her while the killings good" Ban suggests
"You barbarian, I'll petrify her" King says
"Take it easy guys, I'll handle this" Meliodas states.
The last thing anyone expected was for Meliodas to magically summon a marker and start drawing on her face
Ban snorts and looks at Meliodas with a smile
"I was not expecting that" Ban admits trying not to laugh
Hadrian is just rolling on the ground laughing
"Hold on, let me also do something" Hadrian says and all the Sins gulp
"Oh this is going to be scary and funny at the same time" King says slightly nervous
The end result made everyone try not to laugh as hard as they could.
Guila had her face drawn by Meliodas while Hadrian changed her Rapier so that when she hits something it would make a moaning sound and her skin was changing colors consistently and her outfit was a bunny costume (Mascot bunny without the head so not the sexy one).
"That is the most cruelest prank you have ever done" King laughs
"It is the second most cruelest" Ban states
"Actually no, your one lasted a day. This will last a week" Hadrian informs the group
"Yep, this is worse" Ban agrees
Sitting by a lake the group are enjoying some Ale and food
"Here Captain, I boiled this just for you. Open up" Diane says pushing fish towards Meliodas
"That's a little to big for me" Meliodas says while Diane pushes the fish into his hair.
"Say 'ah'" Diane says happily
"Diane, the fish is 3 times his size" Hadrian chuckles
"Uhm, Diane. Are your injuries really healed now?" King asks worried
"S-Sure I feel fine" Diane says embarrassed
"Dumbass, she pretended to be hurt to get the Captain to give her a smooch" Ban says drunk
"Diane's not that kind of girl ok" King protests
"Ah" Diane says, looking away with her.
"Haha, she is!" Hadrian laughed rolling over the ground
"Come on would you three just take it easy" Meliodas scolds
"Speaking of which, I haven't asked. What's your relationship with this girl?" King asks gesturing to Elizabeth
"The lovers kind" Meliodas says with a smile as he gropes Elizabeth
"No its not" Elizabeth says embarrassed
"The grope and get groped kind" Meliodas says putting Elizabeth's hand on his bare chest
"Sir Meliodas" Elizabeth says red faced
"What she is is the princess of the realm. You're the third one, correct Elizabeth?" Meliodas asks
You already knew that Meliodas! Hadrian screams internally
"Uhm, yes" Elizabeth nods
"A princess! You should have told me, if I would have known I would have made myself more presentable" King says before growing a little
"You don't have to" Elizabeth was saying
"Eeeeh, Doh" King was saying before he exploded and went into his fat form.
Both Hadrian and Ban spat out their drinks when seeing him change
"Wow you changed your clothes" Meliodas says amazed
"Look closer!" Ban and Hadrian exclaimed
"You know, it takes a great deal of mental effort to change into this form" King states proudly
"What a pig" Hawk says with food all over his mouth
"Eh?" Ban asks shocked at Hawk's hypocrisy
"Hello, I am King the Grizzly Sin of Sloth of the Eight Deadly Sins. I'm glad to make your acquaintance, I apologize for my poor manner here in the Necropolis" King apologizes getting a little too close to Elizabeth that she has to back up a little to not have their faces squished together.
"Think nothing of it, please don't feel that you need to stress yourself to be around me, just relax and be yourself around me like you would with any other person" Elizabeth says with smile
"If you insist, your majesty" King says before he turns back into his skinny form and falls down where his chastiefol in its pillow form catches him.
"Ah. That took a lot out of me" King admits tiredly
"Wow, he's clothes changed back" Meliodas says surprised
"Look closer damnit!" Ban and Hadrian exclaim annoyed
"I must say Hadrian, you are truly a powerful Sin. You took out that Holy Knight all on your own" Elizabeth says looking at Hadrian
"He has always been one to defy logic when it comes to his strength" King admits with a chuckle
"Don't we know it" Ban laughs
"But any of us could have taken down that Holy Knight if we just unleash our full power" King says before looking at the 4 Sins "Now fess up, where are your Scared Treasures?" King demands
"I lost mine" Diane says putting her pigtails in front of her face sticking out her tongue
"Sold mine" Meliodas says happily
"Mine got stolen" Ban chuckles smiling brightly
King stares at the three Sins before changing into his fat form
"Shame on you" King scolded with a pig noise in the background
King then narrows his eyes on Hadrian
In response Hadrian summons Insidious
"What the hell!?" The Sins exclaims surprised
"Never let it leave my side" Hadrian shrugs before drinking his Ale
King then looks at the other Sins
"So what were you doing when you were an ally to the Holy Knights?" Meliodas asks
King then began to inform the group of information he's gathered.
"So this New Generation is a group of apprentice Holly Knights who've gathered power over night?" Hadrian asks after King explained everything
"That's right" King nods
"Doesn't sound too good does it?" Ban asks worried
"Yeah" Hadrian nods
"Now let's back up for a moment, you took the Sacred Treasure that was bestowed upon you by King Liones himself. And Sold it!" King exclaims looking at Meliodas
"I needed seed money to start the Tavern" Meliodas explains with his goofy face
"Yours was stolen!?" King exclaims looking at Ban
"When my ass was thrown into that prison" Ban explains
King then turns to Diane and he freezes at seeing her sad face
"Am I a bad girl?" Diane asks tearfully
"Yes you are" Hadrian interrupted
"Harry!" King exclaimed before turning to Diane "I'm sure he's just joking, after all I'm certain you just misplaced it" King says trying to make sure Diane doesn't cry
"Hey, I don't understand why you are getting so upset, these guys did pretty good without it" Hawk says confused
"Sir pig" King says turning to Hawk
"Uhm, Sir pig?" Hawk asks confused
"Let's just say that this lake represents the mana used by one of the Sins" King says gesturing to the lake nearby
"How much of the lake's water could you scoop out with just your hands?" King asks
"Hands?" Hawk asks showing his hoofs
"That's right. No matter how much there is, you are limited. But if you have a weapon, such as a Sacred Treasure, you could draw out incredible amounts of magic" King says making the water in the lake rise of incredible proportions
"Sacred Treasures are pretty awesome" Meliodas says with a smile
"That makes sense" Hawk says smiling before he gets angry "Why the hell did you give yours up Hamhead!" Hawk demands shaking Meliodas repeatedly while his face remains goofy
"In any case, we will have to get you, your Sacred Treasures back. Assuming that you're serious about saving the realm" King shrugs
"King, I hope you realize that I'm strong enough to solo all of Britinia and come out with only scratches" Hadrian informs King
"Perhaps, but we should get the others stronger" King informs Hadrian
"King, I fought that Guila person with no Sacred Treasure, no Magical Ability, and with the weakest magic I have. I can solo it" Hadrian states annoyed
"What did you do these past 10 years to make you so strong?" King asks curious
"That is something best not known" Hadrian says, slightly shivering.
Hadrian then walks over to Meliodas who is drinking his Ale
"I met Zaratras in the Necropolis, he says that there are Holy Knights who intend to bring back the Demons so be careful" Hadrian whispers and Meliodas' eyes widen in fear and anger.
At night the Sins are getting ready to sleep, King ends up sleeping with Ban much to his disappointment and Meliodas sleeps with Elizabeth but was tied up by Hawk.
Hadrian on the other hand was sleeping outside with Diane much to everyone's surprise and King's jealousy.
"Why did you want to sleep out here?" Diane asks as her eyes slowly begin to droop
"Thought you might want some company" Hadrian replies before they both fall asleep.
The next morning upon waking up Hadrian found himself between Diane's boobs much to his surprise.
Omake
"Hadrian" A voice calls out and Hadrian turns around to see Diane in an incredibly revealing outfit
"Is there a reason you're dressed like this?" Hadrian asks confused
"I'm a bad girl, and bad girls need to be punished" Diane says seductively as she drops her clothes shocking Hadrian
"Now come on, punish me" Diane says bending over offering herself to him
Do it A voice inside Hadrian's head demands
"Looks like you do need to be punished" Hadrian says dropping his pants revealing his member
"Oh my. Time for you to punish me" Diane says, shaking her butt at him.
Hadrian smirks and punishes Diane.
