Well enjoy!
Gowther and Merlin smiled at him. Giving him a warm smile and a nod from Merlin and a thumbs up from Gowther.
There's a ruckus happening and Meliodas let them calmed down for a whole 30 minutes. After that he then decide to go to his house, and also tour them on the way in his original home.
"These buildings are tall and inside of it, there are many technology, you can't found at britannia." Meliodas spoke with his cheery expression and a kid tone voice.
Ban and the others look around, witnessing a supernatural moment where can only been found in this world. Guess they've been in shock and awe as they first witness a non-magical thinggy.
There are many signs, billboards, restaurant, some food vendors on the street and more. Many people walking around as they also walk and encounter them by banging to each other, causing some people to be push back.
King and Hawk, stares at the window of a Japanese restaurant. Drooling as these two saw some people eating a magnificent food, that they never seen before other than Ban's cooking food and Meliodas scraps.
Diane looking at the buildings with a figure moving on it, with some letterings formed and some magic appeared. There's also a toy figure for a shop commercial she don't know which Meliodas explained.
Gowther and Merlin faces are blunt, but full of interesting thoughts. As they look around, none of the people seems looking at Merlin who is almost naked and floating. This confirms Merlin and Meliodas thoughts of, "Magic existed here already", which Meliodas keep thinking why and how magic formed in the first place when he died.
Escanor. Of course Escanor the prideful man, in night form, looking at window of the bar where he was captivated by some beautiful and attractive fancy utensils such as glass, plates, tables, chairs and spoon and pork. Then he was dying interested when he saw some never seen before type of beers that can only found in this country called 'Japan.'
When he was noticed by some flexible guards in black, guarding the door's bar. He was lifted up by picking his green and white shirt collar. Ban approaches, and stops them effortlessly, Meliodas and the others runs away.
Zeldris and Gelda was the same. Exploring, looking at some shops and more as Zeldris brother, Meliodas explains what they see.
The best experience they had is, seeing the vehicles as they moved around with lights shining in the front without magic. King and Diane screamed as they saw a car was approaching them as they walking to the pedestrian lane, which Ban and Zeldris, almost attack the car. They was stopped by Meliodas and explained it to them what is a vehicle. For a 5 minutes of confusion, the group finally understand it and continue the tour.
Also Meliodas explained the laws of this world and how it works and was received a nod by them. They explored around for 2 hours and as Meliodas walking, he stops. He stood there frozen. On his mind, he never thinks of how much Japan changed when magic existed. Then he looks at some TV in the buildings and saw the Time. His eye's widened as his eye's illuminate and registered on his vision was.
August 16, 2046. 9:47PM.
Then he started walking again, along with his group. His face keeps smiling and stare at the sidewalk next to the streets where vehicle's roam around.
"So I came back 20 years." He thought to it.
Then for another hour, he reached his home. Where he live as a human. The house interior haven't changed. There are some light's on inside. They approach the door and stops.
For Meliodas, this will be a reunion he will had for 20 years off to his family. He kept thinking, 'how will his sister and his acting mother and father react?', 'what kind of greeting he will do?', do they still accept him as he changed in many way?. Through inside and outside.
But one things curtain.
Is to meet them again.
And to meet Asuna again.
While Meliodas kept thinking, he was hit in the back. He turned around to see Ban smiling and the others.
"Go. Do it." Ban smiled at Meliodas to keep him calm as to realize, his friends was there for him. Meliodas then looks at the door again with determination. He clicked the doorbell and caused a sound *ding* *dong* which the other's got alerted and go to their battle stances as Meliodas calmed them down.
Suddenly there was a voice calling "Sugu! Get it!" it was a manly voice and another voice seems to respond with. "Okaaay!" the footstep getting louder and louder. Then the knob caused a sound while it was twisted, then the door moves. What Meliodas see was a girl standing in front of him.
Her supposed to be short black hair, was now become dyed yellow and long, tied in a ponytail style. Sways as she moved around in the door. Her greeny eye's sparkling, as her vision registered and saw an familiar face. A messy yellow hair with antenna on it, his green emerald eye's shining because of the house lights, registered on her eye's. He was wearing an unusual clothes. While he smiles and spoke.
"Hey! Sugu! Been a long time hasn't it." Meliodas spoke with a kiddy cheery tone. While doing a salute from his forehead. (You know the usual Meliodas way.)
To Sugu she was surprised. Her mouth separated for a centimeter, she was speechless as the boy in front of him was greeting her. She was hit by her memories of someone that looks familiar to him. 'But how can that be?' she thought. 'There's no way he will comeback here.' But suddenly she was feeling a hot sensation in her eye's falling to her cheeks. She touched it. What she realized is that, she was crying. Then a warm voice spoke.
"Hey. Sugu. Why are you crying?" Sugu was hit by a wave of emotions she can't tell. But she's aware that, this boy in front of him a midget. A kid. But all she know was.
That's him.
While crying, she called out to his brother's name.
"O-Onii-chan... I-Is that you?" She spoke. Her voice trembling as she was shocked that, she finally see his brother again.
The boy spoke while his right hand waving at her, and doing his usual 'Ni shi shi.'
"Yeah it's me! Your one and only brother. Kirigaya Kazuto."
Then after an awkwardly greeting, Kazuto or Kirito or Meliodas was hit, by his sister's arm surrounding him and crushing him. He just let her be as she cried while hugging him tightly. There was a wave of emotions that Sugu let out while hugging him. Meliodas patted her. And look back to see his friends and his brother, smiling and some of them almost fall a tear.
"Onii-chan! Onii-chan!" Sugu cried to the fullest. Calling her died brother again and again. Then Meliodas spoke.
As the reunion still ongoing, there is someone was so shocked that he's just standing there frozen. Can't seem to speak as a word can't leave his body.
There, Zeldris look at Meliodas and Sugu with a full of confusion while his body tingling from getting shocked at this.
"I-I h-have a s-sister?!"
The rest look at him while smirking and some of them holding back their laughter, as they saw Zeldris looking dead.
"Hey. Hey. It's okay now. I'm back." Meliodas calmed Sugu down as to get back on their tracks.
Sugu then break the hug and look at him with teary eyed face. Then teased him while wimpering.
"Y-y-you look small! What happened to you?"
"It's a long story, but I'll explain it to you and to Okaa-san and Otou-san." Sugu nodded. Then wiping her tears. She don't noticed the other people looking at them as she look to call their parents.
"Okaa-san! Otou-san! Onii-chan is he-" Suddenly she was cut off by a two people running and hugging Meliodas tightly. Their faces are flooded by tears, as a wave of emotions hit the two and let it all out.
Meliodas greets the two who hug her, with a warmth and a kiddy voice.
"Hello Okaa-san. Otou-san. I'm home!" he hugged them back. Enveloping his two arms and touched their backs. The two people who hugged him, was his Aunt and acting Mother. Midori Kirigaya. And his Uncle and acting Father. F/N Kirigaya. They hugged him as they saw and recognized him instantly. His figure changed, but they all saw the Kazuto in him, which they recognized it, it was really him. Back to life.
The two spoke in unison after they hug Meliodas.
"Welcome back Kazuto." They smiled while Meliodas smiled too. Then, he spoke.
"Can we come inside?" The three comeback to their senses as they wiped the remaining tears and respond to their son.
"Oh! Yes! Come inside! We're almost done preparing dinner." After he heard the answer, he spoke again with a smile.
"Thank you." They let him and his friends come inside. Meliodas let them come in by moving his hands up and down. Then the Sins and the leader of the 10 Commandment come inside the house.
Not much have changed but the living room and the kitchen, seems bigger compared than before. Which while coming in, it feels not cramped. Meliodas was staring to the whole living room with a normal expression. (Just like the Meliodas way.)
"Everything in this house is changed." Said Meliodas. Sugu respond to him.
"Yeah! It's because magic exists now!" Sugu spoke in excitement and raised her slender arms as she opened her hands wide. What appear on her palm was, a circle floating few centimeters away from his palm and, it rotates. Then a little fire formed on top of the circle and burst out a medium sized fire. She then looks at his brother with her face shows "See!" while showing her proud attitude to her brother, which he only gives thumbs up as the others look at her with a smile looks away.
"I see. That's good. But, you'll need to learn more." Meliodas smiled, patting her head and goes to the dining table. Sugu's just stare at one point and just stood there. Her face show clearly dead, her soul leaves her body as her green eye's was already lifeless.
She came back to her senses and turned around and faced her brother with, a furious look. She glares at him sending off some cold vibes and atmosphere, while gritting her teeth to death. She then spoke with a serious tone in her voice.
"Why are you so uninterested in this? You know, you love magic! Maybe you never experienced magic before, except back on ALO, so you got jealous Onii-chan. You know I can teach you if you want to." She grinned mocking Meliodas while looking at the food. Then with all those mockery, she only receive a deadpan expression from him. She was about to lost it when her mother calls everyone to eat.
"Everyone! It's time for dinner!" Midori called out Sugu and Meliodas along his friends. Midori prepares a 6 long table with 9 other chairs for Meliodas and his friends.
Ban saw the food and laughs while he grabs King who complaining about Ban. Diane and Escanor walks casually and sit on the chairs, looking at the glorious food that, they about to eat. Gowther and Merlin already sits at the chair smiling. Meliodas lead Zeldris and Gelda to the table and sat at the chair. They toast with their glass at the air and started to eat.
They chat for a long time, while Escanor singing a reciting his prideful poem that he created. Ban, as always drinks some never tasted before beer from Japan, and starts to tease King who always getting angry at him and complain and retorts. Diane talking with Sugu with an excited smile on her face talking about Earth. Merlin just eats casually while talking to Midori. Gowther was eating, (Lemme just add this.) while smiling to the noisy crowd. After they'd eaten, Meliodas, Zeldris and Gelda smiles at each other and stares at the happy people creating a ruckus at the dining table.
Zeldris stares at his brother, as he finally realized something and spoke.
"So this is your family huh."
"Yeah. This is what I have, when I was living in here." He smiled with his usual tone. Zeldris respond again to his brother.
"I finally realized what you've been through these years brother. And I'm sorry." When Meliodas saw Zeldris bowing, he patted his shoulder as a sign of "It's okay." Zeldris put up his face, then nodded.
Then, the atmosphere that, that was happy and alive was turned into silence. Meliodas don't know what's going on, and stared in front of them. He saw a Sugu froze looking at both Meliodas and Zeldris, Midori and his father also do both. With Meliodas questioning them "What is it?"
"Kazuto. Did you just say, brother?" Midori spoke with her eye's widened, her hands is shaking as she try to raise it.
"Yeah. Zeldris is my brother." He spoke giving them a cheeky smile and a grin afterwards. What he receive was, his parent and sister froze. Dropping on what they have on their hands.
Sugu broke the silence by shouting at him.
"WHAAAT?! I HAVE ANOTHER BROTHER?" Her face clearly shows confusion, shocked with depression. As when she saw Zeldris at first sight, her heart was taken away by him. But now all the hope are lost, as she realized she have a new brother.
It's not over yet, as a pig walk around. The three stood there with a confusion. Then the pig announced himself.
"Behold! For I am Hawk! Captain of the order of scraps disposal!" He introduced his title with a proud voice. He smirk at the three, expecting him to be praised. But all the reaction they have was.
"A TALKING PIGGGG?" Sugu, Midori and the unknown father (which I forgotten to remember his name) shouted to the highest voice pitch they had. As to witness a pig, talking like person.
Everyone laughed to the comedy scene happening.
Meliodas looks at Sugu's figure and realized something.
"Hey Sugu, did you change your face and rework your body?" As Sugu heard and gotten into her head what was Meliodas saying, she grinned as her face lighten up as she stare at him with aa mocking expression.
"No. When magic become a thing, I tried to use my character "Leafa" from ALO. Which it worked. And now this is me. It's rather complicated to explain tho. But, that's the gist of it."
Meliodas nodded and continue eating. Sugu or Leafa stared at him with deadpan expression, which she finally thought he was interested in this whole thing of magic. Finally expecting, he was asking with disinterest, which make her mad and irritate.
After that.
Ban hit Meliodas in the back with his elbow, causing him to flinch and remember the explanation he about to do.
"Sugu. Tou-san, Kaa-san. I think I need to explain this to the three of you." He spoke with carefree voice and sniggered a bit. Sugu and her parents nodded at him seriously, preparing their hearts for the story.
Then as he tells it. As for short, reborn as a demon and named Meliodas. Betraying his clan and getting cursed as punishment from both of the gods. Living for 3000 years, until he met the 6 people who changed him and, creating a seven deadly group known as Seven Deadly Sins and so on.
It lasted for about an hour. He explains it all, every detail of it along with the others adding up their adventures and memories with Meliodas.
All Sugu and her parents can do is stare at them. They froze again, but they'll listening to an extreme. The three just gulped and nodded. After the explanation, Meliodas just smiled and laugh a bit, to his parents that seem dead. Then the clock ticks, where the three of them came back to their senses. Midori raised her arm and check out her wrist to see a watch, pointing it is now 12AM.
She clap her hands loud, to get everyone's attention and spoke with a mothertified tone.
"It's midnight now! All of you. You need to sleep. You can sleep on your room Kazuto, but for the others you can sleep here. Understand?" Her eye's glare at them like a lion looking at it's pray before attacking. King and Diane flinch. While the others even Merlin nodded.
Meliodas yawned, signaling for him to sleep. He take the upstairs to go to his old room before he remembered about her. He then take a step back and, saw Sugu talking with Diane. He approached her, called her with his usual tone. (Meliodas way.)
"Yo! Sugu. Need to ask you a bit." He said, cheerfully. Sugu turned to him. Her face seems confused when she look at him. Se spoke with a normal tone.
"Yeah? Onii-chan" Meliodas smiled to her. After that, he changed his usual carefree face into serious and curious look and glare at her. Then I ask what was bothering me.
"Sugu. How's Asuna?" I finally said it. I can't help but, be bothered on Sugu's next line. I prepared my self, as I look into her eye's shows how I missed her. Sugu just look at me with a surprised pikachu face. Then after a moment, she looks at me with her tears crying. Sugu speak to me with wary and like he needs a help from me. Or is it?
"A-Asuna is!" She spoke in a high tone almost shouting, which everyone tend to look at us. They know about her, because of me, so they willingly want to hear about her situation.
Sugu faltered for a moment. Then tried to make a word but couldn't let it out. Sweats starts to develop, as I looked to her closely, which shows somethings bad is happened when I'm gone. Sugu shook her head and spoke.
"Nothing! Nothing bad happened to Asuna." Her voice trembles. She tried to exchange the topic and can't help but worry about me. I then nod and spoke "Okay." (Meliodas way) and turn upstairs.
I opened my door. Showing me was my room. Nothing's changed. My computer was here, the bed and my nervegear that started it all, on how I meet my friends and Asuna. How I become the Black Swordsman and how I save the 6,000 people and become the hero of SAO. All my memories of my past lives resides again into my mind. Whenever I remember my old persona, it kind of makes me cringe, for who I am now.
I then get in the bed, I feel the coldness and nostalgia of the never touch for 20 years pillow and my blanket. Then I sniff it. It shows no smell means this is new. I sat up and lock the door. Then sat to my bed. With a whole 5 minutes of staring at the wall, I snap my fingers causing a *click!* sound.
Then in an instant, Ban, Diane, King, Gowther, Merlin, Escanor, Zeldris and Gelda appeared out of thin air.
I stare at them with serious expression as to remember the signal I gave to them. Which they clearly remembered.
Merlin activated her spell by snapping her fingers.
"Zero Interference." Merlin activate her spell with her calm voice and grin.
An air blows us horridly, swaying our hairs and clothes. After a minute had passed, the wind stops to pummel us with it's strength. Then merlin, announced as it's finishes.
"The spell is activated Captain. No one can interfere with their magic's to eavesdrop on us nor to detect it. Now, go on what's on your mind Captain." Merlin looks at me. Then I touch my hair using my hand as I tell them the reason I called them.
"I need your help guys." I spoke with my eye's staring at them. Then after that they nodded. Fearless smile all I can see through their faces. Then I nodded back to them showing my gratitude to my everlasting friends.
I turned to look on Gowther, who closing his eye's seems to focusing on something while whispering.
"Gowther." Meliodas spoke in a calm voice. Gowther opened his eye's when he hear Meliodas voice. He turned to him, staring at him. Then he just nod, as if he'd understand him instantly just by hearing his serious yet calm voice of his.
Gowther raised his one hand and glowed, a wave of magic appearing on his hand as he intertwined his index finger, to his middle.
A figure appeared. Or just an illusion. Magic occupied the space surrounding us. Then it formed into a circle full of magic covering it. A figure illuminates in our eye's, as it somehow appeared instantly inside of the magic Gowther used.
A person then another, and another. The loop of these seems to feel like endlessly. Every person here appearing one after another, as it's changes every scenery. Gowther explained on what's happening at the very front of us.
"I read the Captain's sister's memories, just like he asked me to. I deep search into her memories while we we're eating. And this is what it showed." He points at the magic circle and created a pose again and spoke.
"I think these memories Captain asked me with, are the one her sister can't say out loud regarding to Asuna."
There at the magic display, saw Asuna who was sitting spiritlessly near a white coffin. Her hazel eye's are lifeless. She'd just stare on the floor like a soulless person. Every time she was called, she would not respond. Sometimes she would have to be carried on their way home. Her heart and mind always filled with regret, hatred, sadness and despair. It cannot be healed by anyone, none other than her beloved Kirito. Her friends look at her with sympathy and pity looks, as they can support her anymore.
Sometimes they would cheer her up. But not even one would budge. She looks like who give up on reality, and want's to die badly. It goes on for 15 years until an encounter, in a bad way.
After the phenomenon where, magic just formed and spread out in the world, Asuna received a very high magical power. High magical power ever recorded second to the most powerful magic user who she encountered with. And it was Sugou.
With his supreme power, as no one can stand above to him, he tried to rule Japan and tried to retake Asuna. As their friends who also received magic, they we're stomped by easily. Sugou threatened her by killing them in front of her. Then her trauma of her beloved being killed, suddenly kicks in and caused her to burst out tears and agree to marry him. She doesn't have no choice but to agree to his nasty request.
She still got to live as a normal, also see her friends but if Sugou likes it.
They watched and stared in disbelief and a feelings mixed with hate and disgust can be seen on their faces. The faces of them seems like, they're ready to kill. As the memory video ended, they look at the Captain, who hiding his eye's from his hair.
Silence and a uncomfortable atmosphere befall to them. But it was lasted for a whole 2 minutes, as Meliodas stand up and look at the white wall. He clenched his fists, his happy go lucky atmosphere was changed into a sinister one, as sudden fury dwell inside him. He grit his teeth as his demon power almost appear. He was stopped by his best friend by calming him down.
"Don't worry Cap'n. We will get her back." He smiled to an angry, that will explode Meliodas. He look up to his best friend and his most important people that's been with him for years. His mouth opened for a moment and closed it. Then his atmosphere changed. Instead of a ready to kill Meliodas, he came back to his usual self. He sniggered and do his usual 'Ni shi shi' and balled his other hand and bump it to his palm near the chest. And spoke.
"Thank you, guys. I don't know what I will gonna do without you all, who changed me." He smiled at them and shows his gratitude towards them.
"Anytime Cap'n." Ban spoke, his mouth opened while his long pointy tounge exposed.
"Rely on us more." Diane spoke in her normal usual cutely voice, as she giggles and looks at King who is blushing. Then suddenly was hit by Gowther who is giggling as he pose at him and caused him to flinch and come back to his senses and turned to him and spoke.
"Yeah!" Grinning with his orange eye's glaring at him with motivation and determination as he thumbs up.
"We are friends for ever as always." Escanor who smiles while, his eye's are hiding from his glasses as he also give a thumbs up to him.
"We always help you no matter what." Merlin grinned as he look at Meliodas and nod.
"Brother, let me help you as well, me and Gelda as a favor and a sorry." Zeldris faced Meliodas with a determination and a sorry look as he smile. Gelda unified with a "Yeah. Let me help you too." As she nods at him.
Meliodas look at them, like he's going to cry. But he held back and stare at the wall with pure determination and a hope on it's eye's as, he grinned fearlessly.
