Author's Note: Hello, it's me again with another chapter, and there's something I need to ask. It's about Triehxa, you know, 666. Anyway, the question is what should I do about him. Most people think that he'll be an ally to Meliodas, but I think that he'll just be a major problem for him. Ophis became an Ally because she had something they needed and Meliodas had someone they could use to defeat her problem.

However, Trihexa has nothing that Meliodas wants and vise versa. Besides, the wiki says that it just lives to destroy, and it's possible that it's a mindless being. Now, this is fanfiction, and I can change it to have sentience, but it just wants nothing more than destruction. Aside from that, I don't think I'll have Trihexa as an ally and just one last obstacle for world domination.

Anyway, that's it for this and on with the Chapter.

Chapter 20-The Destroyer


(With Gowther)

Gowther had returned from the destruction of the Phenex household with his small group in tow. Over his shoulder was Ravel, the only member of the household that was a survivor. He needed to return with his Thought Projection and re-visit Azzazel to see what other information he had that could be useful. That had also reminded him, he needed to undo the spell he had put on those girls and send them on their way so the man wouldn't be distracted.

"Kill Switch," Gowther said as Ravel glowed as he gave the girl to one of the men behind him. "Take her to a bedroom. Her magic ability has been locked away until I restore it. Lock the door, keep watch on her, and give her food every 5 hours." Gowther ordered as the man nodded and left as the others left as well. Gowther headed to the laboratory, where he knew his other self was as he was correct.

"I assume that everyone has been informed of the plan?" The physical version of Gowther asked as his magical counterpart nodded. A few seconds later, they walked towards each other, and it looked like they fused until there was one Gowther remaining. Gowther sighed as he clenched his fist, feeling his power become whole again as he told the scientist to continue their work as they nodded with Gowther leaving them to talk with Azazel.

Just as he was nearing Azazel's room, Meliodas was in front of him. Gowther refrained himself from entering Meliodas's mind without permission, knowing that he had been told many times not to do so unless instructed or they were an enemy. Although he did have an idea as to what he wanted, he said nothing and allowed Meliodas to speak.

"Gowther, summon the commandments, the knights of black, Vali and his team, and Yasaka as well. Once they are assembled, I shall meet you all in the main room; bring Azazel as well. I shall then explain why, but you already have an idea as to why." Meliodas ordered as Gowether nodded. He walked past Meliodas into Azazel's room and saw him wrapped in bandages; it was as if he was a mummy.

"I have an idea as to why he represents a mummy from Egypt, but indulge me as why and how he ended up like this." Gowther asked as the girls explained that Gowther's magic had worn off due to him making it temporary, and had found themselves being groped and smothering Azazel with their breast. They knew that they couldn't harm Gowther, so they took their anger out on Azazel instead.

"Perpahs you shouldn't have made it tempory," Azazel suggested as the girls gained tic marks on their heads.

*Bam!*

"Shut up!" The girls yelled after punching Azazel in the face as he groaned in pain as the girls walked out of the room. Gowther watched them go seeing their anger as he turned back to the fallen angel.

"Perhaps that was the wrong thing to say?"

"I think your right..."

After having Asia heal Azazel, Gowther had done what Meliodas had asked of him and sent a mental message to everyone to come to Kuoh. Chandler and Cusack were the first to arrive, followed by the commandments, then was Vali and his team, and finally Yasaka as she was the farthest away but had arrived moments later with teleportation magic.

Meliodas had promptly walked into the room with Gowther and Azazel behind him. Everyone stared at him as he came to a stop in front of them as he could tell they were expecting an explanation.

"I understand that your all wondering why you're here. Some of you were training, others destroying nations that refuse to submit to us, and Yasaka specifically leading her group. Well, I am here to tell you that we have put this off for long enough." Meliodas started explaining as Vali coughed in his hand and stepped forward, getting everyone's attention.

"And just what have we put off exactly?" Vali asked as many agreed as Meliodas smirked.

"What we have put off...is the invasion of the Underworld."

Meliodas couldn't help but smile, seeing the shocked faces of everyone that wasn't one of the commandments or the Knights of black. He wasn't surprised, the demons were use to conquest, he was surprised that Yasaka seemed shocked herself, having figured that she knew this day would come.

"Invading the Underworld. Meliodas, I hope you realize that this will be no small or easy task even with all your power." Bikou commented as Meliodas nodded. He knew that it would be no easy task; he could admit that. However, what he wouldn't admit was defeat, and he declared that victory would be theirs.

"Sir Meliodas, let us say that you could conquer the Underworld. What would you do about the Crimson Satan? Or the other two Maou for that matter? There is also the Red Dragon Emperor to deal with, but I'm sure that Vali could deal with him." Arthur asked as everyone wanted the answer to that question. Meliodas said that Vali could indeed deal with Issei as he no longer had any interest in him.

"Vali shall take Zeldris to combat the red dragon, to take his Sacred Gear. I shall be dealing with the Crimson Satan. I've learned that he is no pushover and that he has a form that quickly puts him as one of the Top 10 strongest beings in this world. To deal with this...I shall become the Demon King." Meliodas explained as this time, everyone was shocked. To become the Demon King wasn't something to joke about. The demons knew this, and for those of the opposite dimension, they how much power Meliodas's Father had and dreaded to think how much more powerful Meliodas would become.

"Sir Meliodas, to become the Demon King means you need to absorb the commandments, and they are a fraction of your Father's power that has been divided into ten pieces. Thus making the Ten Commandments." Chandler started explaining as he walked to his student. "However, your Father still exists as the Demon King, and as such, the world will reject two Demon Kings as the world requires one. Not only that, your power as the Demon King would require you to reside within Purgatory or the Demon Realm as this world could not handle such power." Chandler finished his explanation as he walked by and closed people's mouths as he said they wouldn't want to catch any flies.

"W-Wait a minute! You mean to tell me that if he becomes the Demon King, his mere presence could destroy the world!?" Kuroka shouted as Chandler nodded. Kuroka nervously chuckled as she reminded herself not to betray them or do anything that would warrant her death along with her sister's.

"Meliodas, If I may ask. After taking over the Underworld would you not have to go and defeat your Father?" Azazel asked as Meliodas nodded. Defeating his Father would be a challenging task, and despite the state he's in from battling Great Red, he would still put up a fight.

"Fighting my Father is a task that I will deal with personally after conquering the Underworld. This takes priority; by conquering this realm, we are showing the supernatural how strong we truly are. We've already shown the humans are strength, and now it's time to show everyone else." Meliodas declared as everyone was silent before agreeing. They couldn't put it off any longer; if they did, they gave their enemy the chance to attack them.

"Well, we should start getting ready then." Ace spoke up as everyone nodded. "We can't stand around any longer, we need to start assembling our armies for this war, and Meliodas needs to prepare himself for becoming the new Demon King." Ace explained as everyone nodded once again. Meliodas ordered the commandments to follow him while leaving Chandler, Cusack, Azazel, and Yasaka in charge.

"Chandler, Cusack. I don't know how you wish to go about this but I suggest we start coming up with strategies to combat everyone. Azazel, you should start gathering any tools you may have to asisit us." Yasaka commented, seeing the commandments leaving into a separate room. The demons agreed as Chandler ordered the knights of black to summon everyone as they nodded before bowing, leaving the three in charge to discuss battle plans.

Azazel did as he had been instructed, saying he'd head back to his room for a few minutes before heading towards the laboratory.

(Timeskip) Song End


The commandments had followed Meliodas into a medium-sized room that was enough to fit them all. Meliodas continued his stride until he stopped causing the rest to stop as he turned to face them. His face was expressionless as he started to speak.

"The reason I have brought you all here is to retrieve the commandments from you all." Meliodas explained as Zeldris and Estarossa nodded while the rest seemed hesitant. Even Ophis's hesitance wasn't unknown. They were all defying the Demon King himself, Ophis knew that he had defeated Great Red, whose strength was on par with her own, more than likely exceeding her.

"I know that you all are hesitant to go against my Father. His power is genuinely nothing to scoff at, and his magical ability, The Ruler, makes him almost invincible. However, that doesn't make him unbeatable, and with me as the new Demon King, I can defeat him. Only if you give me your commandments, which will also release you from their curse, allowing you all to do whatever you wish, such as Galand can lie without being turned to stone, and Grayroad can kill others without losing the rest of her remaining life span." Meliodas explained, wanting their trust as they all looked to one another. It was when Zeldris took a step forward and stood in front of Meliodas that gained their attention.

"Meliodas is correct. Our Father is nothing more than a tyrant, a tyrant that Meliodas has shown me. The Supreme Deity is the same, which is why if we wish to defeat them, Meliodas needs to become the next Demon King." Zeldris declared as he started muttering an incantation.

"Wozun Meihen Ka." (Do not resist conversion)

"Ishuma No Jimeu." (Ten Commandments)

Just as he finished, a purple light shined in the room until it died down. In Zeldris's hand was his commandment, the Commandment of Piety. He looked at it for a few moments until he handed it over to Meliodas as it vanished. He didn't absorb it, not until he received the others. Zeldris had walked over to Estarossa and muttered the same incantation as his hands phased through his brother's body as he pulled them out along with Estarossa's commandment, which he handed over to Meliodas.

"That's two commandments I now have along with my own making three. That only leaves seven remaining, the ones you all possess. Now then, I must have your answer. Are you going to give me your commandments and join me in killing my Father and the Supreme Deity, or will you stay loyal to my Father? Just know that if you do indeed choose to stay with my Father, you shall leave here immediately, and the next time we cross paths, it shall be as enemies, and I shall show you no mercy." Meliodas asked as he explained what happened after they made their decisions. It was simple, join Meliodas in rebellion against his Father, or stay loyal and fight Meliodas.

Ophis floated over to Meliodas. She said nothing but gave him a look as he nodded and muttered the incantation as he held the Commandment of Patience. Ophis still said nothing as she stood next to Meliodas as his eyes flickered to the rest of the commandments. "I now await for the rest of you." Meliodas blankly said as they all stared at each other until Gowther stepped forward.

"I'm curious as to how events will play out. So, I shall revoke my commandment." Gowther explained as Meliodas put his arms through Gowther's chest and with another purple light as in his hand was the Commandment of Selflessness. After Gowther stepped forward, the rest of them walked towards Zeldris and Meliodas as they said the incantation as they took the Commandments from them.

"...Thank you." Meliodas muttered, but it was loud enough for them all to hear. Some smiled while others smirked, knowing that emotions wasn't something Meliodas was used to, especially gratitude. However, that didn't stop him from trying, nor did it stop him from showing it.

"Aww would you look at that, Meliodas is showing gratitude. I didn't think I would see the day." Derieri teased as Meliodas grew a tic mark on his head. Derieri, somehow, was the only one who could get away with teasing him. Anyone else and they found themselves in the infirmary, even his brothers and Chandler as well.

Gowther messed with him as well, but he had a pass because he had no concept of emotions at all.

"Sometimes I wonder how Meliodas met Derieri that she can freely tease him like this." Galand muttered as Melascual nodded in agreement while Monspeet was quiet but held the same question himself.

"Now that we are free from the binds of our Commandments, will you not be affected by them?" Grayroad asked as Meliodas shook his head. He explained that if it was indeed the case, then his Father couldn't handle his own power, which is where the Commandments originated.

"If I become the Demon King, I would become immune to the Commandments curse. If my Father is immune to them, then I shall be immune to them as well. There is, however, only one problem." Meliodas said as he caught everyone's attention. They didn't think there was a problem with him becoming the Demon King, yet Meliodas himself stated that there was a problem.

"And what would this problem be exactly?" Ophis asked the question that everyone wanted to know. Meliodas sighed as he walked towards the doors and stopped.

"The problem is, is that I run the risk of my Father taking over my body." Meliodas explained as he walked out the doors hearing them all gasp as he continued his stride. It wasn't their problem, it was his alone, and it would only become a problem if his Father took over his body.

"And that is something I shall not allow. Father, I suggest you regain as much power as you can because there can only be one Demon King. I'm coming for your throne, and there's nothing you can do to stop me." Meliodas thought to himself as he decided that he would need more information about the Underworld. Yasaka would be a good choice, but she was more involved on Earth.

So, the next person was Azazel. He could trust his knowledge because he formerly was from the enemy side, but he still kept him at arm's length. Still, he had no other choice. Ravel was still a child who hadn't truly experienced the world, and he while he didn't doubt that she held valuable information, Azazel was the better choice.

"Time to pay him a visit."

(Timeskip)


Meliodas continued his walk towards Azazel's room. He needed the man's knowledge of the Underworld, along with all of its inhabitants and any significant enemies that would be a thorn in his side. Meliodas needed as much information as he could obtain from Azazel before declaring total war against his enemies and laying siege to their homes.

The Demon Prince had reached the man's door as he flung it open, scaring the Fallen Angel as he managed to catch a sword before it had pierced his foot. He chuckled as Meliodas sighed. He knew he couldn't blame the man, he had practically broken his door down with no warning, but a man of his caliber shouldn't have been scared from something so small.

"Oh! You scared me. Sorry." Azazel said as Meliodas ignored him as he stared at the weapon in his hand. The weapon was a curved shortsword with a Dragon tattoo emblem into its hilt and five holes along the middle of the sharp blade and five half-moon holes along the other side of the blade. The blade was split into two different colors, the sharp part is silver, and the opposite is a dark green moss.

"What is this weapon?" Meliodas asked as Azazel as the man seemed...annoyed? Meliodas looked perplexed, seeing how annoyed Azazel looked when asked about the weapon. This only made Meliodas more curious about the weapon as he swiped it from his hands, ignoring his shout as Azazel sighed.

"It's a weapon that I've called Lostvayne. I was going to use it myself, but I realized that it's too small for me. I was going to discard it but if your interested in it you can have it." Azazel explained as Meliodas nodded. The shortsword felt right to him, even better than the katana that Ophis had made for him out of Great Red's scales.

"I shall take this. In return, you can have the weapon that Ophis crafted for me. It's made from the scales of Great Red, along with the armor she gave me as well. In time I will have no need for the armor, I can have Melascula use her magic to enlarge it for you." Meliodas said as Azazel seemed very giddy about weaponry and armor from Great Red himself made from his robust scales.

"I should mention that this sword has a special ability. It allows you to make Physical Clones. However, they are half of what the original has. So if you were to make one clone, it would have half of your current power, the same if you were to make four or six clones with your power being evenly distributed among them." Azazel explained as Meliodas nodded. He didn't have a sheath for his new weapon, so he used darkness as a substitute, keeping it latched onto his back.

"Now, as for why I'm here, Azazel, I need your knowledge of the Underworld. I need to know everything, from where certain places are, the strongest beings, and most importantly, a place where I can battle Sirzechs without causing any casualties towards our group." Meliodas explained as Azazel nodded and started thinking. There were many places within the Underworld where Meliodas could do battle with Sirzechs, but if he wanted a location away from the actual war...

"If I remember correctly, Lucifaad, the original capital of the Underworld, should still be abandoned. No one ever goes there, and there's hardly anything for them even if they did." Azazel explained as Meliodas grinned. He asked for the location of Lucifaad as Azazel started going through his things and gave him a piece of paper.

"This will take you to Lucifaad. Just make sure that Sirzechs knows where you are, if not then you'll be pretty far away." Azazel commented as Meliodas nodded, taking the magical parchment and stuffed it into his pocket. Azazel told him that all he needed to do was channel his magic into it, and he would appear at his destination.

"Good. The moment I even sense him, I shall give him a message of where to meet. Then, we can decide the fate of this world." Meliodas explained as he walked out of the man's room, who was almost right behind him after grabbing his new weapon. The armor wouldn't fit him, not until he got Melascula to use her magic and change its size so that it could fit him.

Meliodas and Azazel went their separate ways. With Meliodas heading towards a sealed-off room, Azazel headed towards where Yasaka, Chandler, and Cusack discussed their battle plans. Before that, before they could start their invasion, Meliodas needed to do one final thing.

And that...was to become the Demon King.

"Once I become the Demon King, there shall be no one to stand in my way. Once this war is over, Father shall be my only opponent left." Meliodas muttered to himself as Gowther appeared by his side. Gowther, other than Zeldris and their two masters, was the only one who knew what he wanted and could give advice from every angle along with their possible outcomes.

"I've already prepared everything that's needed. All that needs to be done is for you to absorb the Commandments, and then battle your Father as a spirit to gain control over your body." Gowther explained as Meliodas nodded but asked for an explanation on fighting his spirit. "You see, the Demon King requires a vessel to remain in power. However, in order to do that, he would need to completely take over the person's mind. If were to defeat his spirit, he would no longer be in control of your body."

"I see. Then let us get this over with. I assume you know what to do?" Meliodas asked as Gowther nodded, and with a snap of his fingers, the former commandments appeared. Gowther had already informed them of what was happening as Gowther started changing the room around them, making it far bigger than what it originally was, and sealed off the exit.

Play Song MajinO Four Archangels (Side note: Ik that Meliodas entered a cocoon or something like that to become the Demon King, but I'm just going to ignore that, cause you know, it's fanfiction and my story)

"Be prepared. That is my only warning and advice for what is about to come." Meliodas said as they all nodded. He walked away from them as he brought out the Commandments and said the spell to absorb them.

Ishimeyoma (O Commandment)

Shigai Eniwa Kota (Respond to my will)

Garakachi Wa Natore (Become my power)

The Commandments were absorbed into Meliodas as he finished the spell and was engulfed in darkness. Zeldris was the first to draw his sword as darkness cackled off it, with Estarossa following him, drawing his own sword as swords of darkness circled around him. Gowther summoned his bow as Monspeet held a sword of fire while the rest of them prepared their magic.

The Demon King from the Demon Realm felt all of the Commandments being absorbed. He couldn't hide his feral grin as he sent his spirit to the one who absorbed them all. During that, Meliodas found himself in his subconscious as he held Lostvyane until the spirit of his Father appeared.

"Well, my son...it seems as if you've absorbed the Commandments, as well as you've been expecting me." Meliodas's Father mused as his son gave him a harsh glare. They both knew the true reason for him being here and irked Meliodas that he was beating around the bush as he pointed his sword at him.

"Enough games Father. You're here to take over my body so that you can continue to rule as the Demon King for eternity." Meliodas explained the obvious as he could see his Father's devilish grin. Now that he knew for sure, he would take down his Father within his mind, the only thing that worried him, was what was happening outside of his mindscape.

Outside his mindscape, Meliodas's appearance drastically changed. Meliodas' body became that of a tall and muscular adult with long hair, a white full-body leotard, golden boots, gauntlets, and two long, clawlike protrusions coming out of a dark matter accumulated on his back. He also has several black marks around his body, including a dragon symbol on his shoulder.

The commandments stared in shock at his transformation as Ophis even had a small blush at his new look. However, his presence was completely different. It felt ten times darker than usual, and he held a satisfactory grin.

"Well, I must admit that this body feels excellent. Granted, of course, it will take me a while to get to full power, but that shouldn't be very long." "Meliodas" spoke to himself, ignoring the stares upon him. He soon stopped admiring himself as he now focused on the high-ranking Demons and Dragon God in front of them.

"Ah, the Ten Commandments. I never believed that you would betray me, but of course, everyone should expect the unexpected. I can admit, that it was my own fault for not keeping you all in a tighter leash." The Demons now knew who they were up against, the Demon King, as he crossed his arms and looked around. "I must say, this place we're in, I can sense the enchantments placed all around. However, this merely isn't a room; this is a Pocket Dimension of someone, Gowther's to be more precise."

"How did he know? He's only just appeared, and yet he's figured out the place he's in." Melascula said as sweat rolled down her forehead. This was very advanced magic that Gowther learned for various reasons, as his Pocket Dimension it was a place where he could control. One could be sent here and couldn't even know the difference, and the Demon King had already figured it out along with who possesses the magic.

"This is the Demon King were talking about. Considering he's been to Purgatory, it would make sense if he knew he was in a different Dimension." Galand muttered as he gripped his spear, any more strength, it would snap. He never thought that he would be challenging his leader, but he would be wrong as he was standing in front of him in the body of Meliodas.

"Even so, we should stop standing around here. The longer we do nothing, the stronger he'll get until he reaches full power. Until then, we need to hold him off and wait until Meliodas beats him in his mind." Monspeet said as they all agreed. Zeldris was the first to break away from them as he clashed his sword with one of the claw protrusions as Estarossa did the same with his swords, ready to pierce his chest until a wave of magic blasted them away.

Derieri ran forward and started relentlessly pounding away at the King of Demons, but a smirk was on his face as he felt no damage at all. He punched her away, but she had a massive grin on her face as multiple magical circles appeared on where she struck and on the hand that he punched her with.

*Boom!*

They exploded in a gigantic blast as Derieri had a feral grin. This was her Forbidden Magic, Bomb Curse. It allowed her to place bombs anywhere she wanted, detonate them remotely, and even turn herself into a bomb. The more she attacked someone, or they attacked her, the more bombs placed on their body. However, the Demon King was unaffected through the smoke, and he stood there having his arms crossed.

"Heh. It seems as if not even your Forbidden magic can harm me. I am feeling merciful, so I shall give you all one chance." The Demon King spoke as they all looked at him. "Lay down your weapons, get on your knees, and pledge your alliance to me after begging for forgiveness. Then, you can be spared from an unruly fate."

"Liar! You only wish to see us throw away our pride before killing us like animals!" Zeldris shouted as they all agreed with him. His Father sighed; Zeldris was too perceptive for his own good. He stared at them as he started gathering magic, but before he could unleash it, his body tensed. The Demons realized this as Ophis was the first to vanish and appear in front of Meliodas's Father as she slammed her fist in his stomach.

"Black Lightning!" Ophis chanted, sending a blast of powerful lightning magic at him creating a gigantic explosion. Within the Demon King's mind, he was also fighting Meliodas. Meliodas was proving to be a challenge, but it wasn't anything he couldn't handle. He was currently far stronger than him. However, Meliodas summoned something in his hand.

"...And what makes you believe that whatever is in that jar...can defeat me?" He questioned as his son smirked. Meliodas ran at his Father, gripping the Jar in his hand but making sure not to break it. His Father sent waves of darkness that Meliodas destroyed or sent back as he threw the Jar. Meliodas never considered his Father a fool, he was the oldest being in existence, and his knowledge was as ancient as himself, but only today would he calm him one for letting his guard.

The Jar broke against the Demon King's armor as Meliodas sent a wave of magic as his Father could now see what it was. Within the Jar were souls. Countless Souls attacked the Demon King as he angrily roared at his son, who chuckled.

"Father, clearly, you don't know what I've been doing during your rest. Honestly, did you not believe that I would have thought of a plan to combat you. Brute force is Derieri's occupation. We gathered these souls to combat you and the Supreme Deity. However, it seems that all these souls will go to weaken your spirit for the time being." Meliodas explained as his Father growled. He underestimated his son, something that he would never do again.

His physical form was fighting off his former subordinates. However, only Ophis had actually gotten him to move from his spot. Zeldris was close to second as he continued blocking more attacks. He grabbed Zeldris's sword when he went for another strike and snapped it in half as he kicked him away.

Monspeet rushed him as he used his Ash Dragon from above to distract him as Grayroad used Black hurricane, magic that uses Anti-Magic as she sent her attack from behind the Demon King. However, the Demon King extended one of his claw protrusions, catching Monspeet as he threw him into Grayroad's attack before catching the fire dragon like a ball before throwing it at Monspeet and Grayraod.

Lucky for them Melascula had used her Territory Magic to send them into a small pocket dimension of hers before releasing them behind her. They thanked her before focusing their attention on the strongest being within the Demon Realm.

Zeldris threw away his broken sword and used the Scared Gear he possessed to make a new one. Galand was in his Critical Over state as he appeared next to the Demon King, slamming his spear across his chest, but his attack didn't even cut his clothing as he was given a glare before being punched away.

"Grrrr! I've had enough of this! I say we give him everything we got!" Galand yelled as he started gathering his magic, not waiting for anyone else's reply. He was right as Zeldris ordered them all to use the Forbidden spells they learned against him. While hesitant, especially Ophis, they all complied and started charging their magic as they prepared to use their strongest of spells.

"Perhaps after you've used your strongest attacks, to see that it will do nothing against me. Maybe then, you will see that challenging me, was nothing short of futile." The Demon King spoke as the Demons ignored him.

"Hado 90: Kurohitsugi!" Estarossa yelled as a black box started forming.

"Cero Oscuras!" Zeldris chanted as a green blast of magic was fired.

"Black Lightning!" Ophis chanted as from her hand and the sky. Her black lighting magic struck down.

"Licht Regen!" Gowther said as he fired multiple arrows.

"Lanza Del Rempago!" Galand yelled as he clasped his together before bringing them apart, creating a spear of magic as he gripped it and threw it.

"Barara Saiqa!" Monspeet shouted as lightning struck his sword from the clouds as he gathered the energy before releasing it.

"Hado 99: Goryutenmetsu!" Melascula chanted as five purple dragons of destruction raged crossed the field.

"Respira!" Grayroad yelled as she sent a wave of magic that ate away at the ground that she made sure didn't hit her comrades.

"Explosion Wave!" Derieri yelled, sending an explosion of magic at her former leader.

The Demon King smirked. He could see that these were by far one of the strongest of magic within the Forbidden library. He raised his claw protrusions to shield himself. This was powerful Forbidden Magic, he refused to take any chances against them, knowing that he could still be damaged and possibly killed. However, he tensed once again, knowing that Meliodas refused to submit to him.

Because of this, the protrusions couldn't properly shield himself from the blast of magic as he struggled. The Demon King roared in fury and took the force of the attack.

*BOOM!*

The magic had eradicated the land around them as Gowther struggled to keep his dimension from collapsing in on itself. The Demons weren't as tied as they thought they'd be, but they had drained a good portion of their magic. Through the smoke...stood the Demon King. Blood trickled down his mouth as his clothing took some damage with small tears.

The Demons could only stare in shock that he was still standing. However, he started gripping his head as he yelled, knowing that Meliodas was behind it. He felt himself being cast out, back to his original body as he gave the former Ten Commandments one final glare.

"When I am fully healed, I promise you all that a fate worse than death awaits you!" The Demon King roared, cursing them all as they felt a chill go down their spines. It was as he said, he didn't threaten them, he promised them. Ophis was slightly scared herself, as she wondered what sort of fate he had for her.

Within his mind, he was severely beaten. His sword was broken and was missing an arm. His armor was dented from small balls of darkness that Meliodas bombarded him with. He felt himself returning to his body, he had been beaten by Meliodas as he gave his son one last glare.

"Remember this well...the world cannot have two Demon Kings. And when you come for my throne...I'll be waiting." Meliodas's Father warned as he vanished from Meliodias's mindscape. After that, the world around the Demon prince crumbled as he felt himself returning.

The former commandments watched as Meliodas was once again consumed by darkness as it quickly settled down, revealing the true Meliodas, who was back to his original height with his short hair and having his ahoge once more. He fell on his back as he stared into the sky as Zeldris loomed over him.

"Is that you Meliodas?" Zeldris asked, ensuring that this was his brother and not his Father.

"Yes. It's me, and just to prove it to you. You asked me when you thought it would be a good time to cou-"

"Enough! It's you! No need to say that!" Zeldris shouted, having a blush on his face as Meliodas couldn't help but grin. The only person who probably knew of this was Chandler, one of the many things Meliodas loved to do was tease his siblings, even if he wouldn't admit it. His emerald eyes added to his grin, making him look like a child until he stood up.

"Alright, enough of this. It's time that we invade the Underworld." Meliodas declared, dropping his demeanor as they all agreed. Gowther teleported them all out of his dimension as Meliodas wanted to hear of battle plans that were made.

Chapter End


Author's Note: Alright end of the Chapter. Sorry about not getting this out sooner but, I was doing other things. Anyway, this is gonna be short because I wanna sleep. So, a lot of people were saying about Sirzechs one-shotting the commandments and shit, but because of how many of those are, I'll save for the next Chapter.

Anyway, how'd you think of the battle at the end? Btw, all the spells that the commandments used were their Forbidden Spells. Melascula has Bakudo and Kido, not just Hado 99 like how Estarossa has Hado 90. The spells were either from you guys, which was most of them), or I choose things that were interesting to me, were awesome, or it matched their personality.

Anyway, that's it for this, and hope you all have a Happy New Year.
