05x05 - The Tragic Strike

Post by bunniefuu »

Three thousand years ago,
in order to end the Holy w*r,

the mage, Gowther, cast a forbidden curse.

The curse altered the memories of one man

and the minds of all those who knew him.

After , years,

the curse was finally lifted and the minds
of the accursed began to rupture.

Who is the man whose memories
were altered by the mage, Gowther?

Why?

Why did the Demon, Estarossa,
grow wings like a Goddess?

Estarossa of the Demon Clan
no longer exists.

What?

Gowther?

That is his true form.

I am…

Mael of the Four Archangels.

This is a tale of ancient times,

when the human and non-human worlds
had not yet split.

The Holy w*r, once more!

How the battle over the fate
of Britannia would progress

was something
not even the gods could predict.

But even so, they continue to battle.

They fight to destroy the evil rule

and protect the future
of their loved ones…

Therefore, they are known
as the chosen heroes,

the Seven Deadly Sins!

EPISODE
THE TRAGIC STRIKE

But…

Mael? Is it you?

Was I having a nightmare?

He looks just like Ludociel!

You won't get braver
just because you copied his hairstyle.

Your hair is too wavy.

Are you bullying him?

I am not.

I think it looks great on you.

As expected from a brother of mine.

Will I become like you someday?

I guarantee it.

You shall become a man who surpasses me.

My brother had taught me.

k*lling the Demon Clan was not a crime.

It was an act of justice that saved
souls trapped in a cage of impurity.

Yes. That is why I k*lled
countless members of the Demon Clan.

In time, I became the strongest
of the Four Archangels

and a warrior feared by the Demon Clan
as the "Angel of Death."

My older brother was proud of me.

That made me so happy.

However, you, Elizabeth…

You did not give me a second look.

You chose Meliodas, an impure Demon.

Do you understand
how painful that was for me?

What was that?

I am Estarossa…

What am I saying?

I am…

How pathetic.

I have k*lled the most powerful
of the Four Archangels, Mael!

I dedicate this victory to my father,
the great Demon King.

What is with this hair? Such a bother.

Now I have the same hairstyle
as my brother Meliodas.

Well done, Estarossa.

I thought you were an incompetent son,

but I shall grant you this as a gift.

Father, is that the Commandment of Love
that my brother left?

Incredible!

This is my new power!

This is incredible!

This is a nightmare.

This can't be real!

It wasn't a nightmare.

I can feel it in these hands.

The feeling of k*lling thousands
of my brethren…

The feeling of destroying
innocent townspeople…

Who…

who would do this?

Me.

I am responsible for everything.

So break me.

Gowther, mage of the Ten Commandments.

You…

Gowther!

Do you understand what you are saying?

I have accepted my fate.

You made me hate
my honorable brother as an enemy

and obey an impure brother
of the Demon Clan!

You stole my Grace and justice!

This is an unforgivable crime.

Gowther!

Gowther of the Ten Commandments,

before you die for your crimes,

you shall answer my questions.

Why did you do this?

Why did it have to be me?

The cause of the Holy w*r , years ago

was a shift in the power balance
of the Demon Clan and Goddess Clan.

This was due to Meliodas
betraying the Demon Clan

and joining the Goddess Clan.

I needed to give a warrior
with the power of Meliodas

to the Demon Clan

and restore the broken balance of power.

I chose you, Mael.

The Goddess Clan lost you

and the Demon Clan gained Estarossa
to maintain this balance.

But a w*r that has already begun
cannot end so easily.

In the end,
the Goddess Clan was forced to use

the Coffin of Eternal Darkness.

That is how the Holy w*r ended.

To end the Holy w*r?

You caused me such pain and embarrassment
for that righteous purpose?

In that case, I have no choice
but to give you the same pain and…

That body…

I am a doll created by the mage Gowther.

It can't be…

How can I get revenge on a doll
that doesn't feel pain?

Do you intend to continue mocking me?

Don't, King…

I don't want you involved.

Law Four of the Seven Laws
of the Seven Deadly Sins.

"If a friend is in crisis,
we must do everything we can to help."

Right?

Are you a friend of Gowther? Perfect.

If your body cannot feel pain,
I shall cause you mental suffering.

I strongly hope there is a heart
in that fake shell of yours.

-Stop!
-What?

Increase!

Arrow of Salvation.

King!

The Arrow of Salvation leads Demons
to a mercilessly painless death.

However, beings of other clans
shall feel unbearable pain.

How sad.

Break me instead! King did nothing wrong!

Yes.

That is what I wanted.

There is no way of getting revenge
without that.

True Spirit Spear Chastiefol.

Form One "Chastiefol."

What?

Spear of Judgement!

The more you struggle,

the longer Gowther will suffer.

Keep it up, Fairy.

I am the King of the Fairies!
Don't look down on me!

What is that child doing to Mael?

Tarmiel, let's go too.

Yes! We need to help Mael!

No! We need to help the Seven Deadly Sins!

Are you serious?

Gowther was the one who forced Mael
to take the form of Estarossa!

More than that,
Mael is our precious companion!

Yes.

He lost the Grace of Sunshine.

However, as one of the Four Archangels,

he has complete control
of the powers of the Commandment.

It's a skill unique
to the strongest of the Four Archangels.

However, it is a power of darkness
that does not fit the Goddess Clan.

Each time he uses the skill,
his heart will be devoured by darkness.

What can we do?

I cannot fight a friend like Mael!

Then save him! As a friend!

Elizabeth!

Elizabeth, stay with us.

Derieri…

What should I do?

I can't believe that
Estarossa was actually Mael.

How can I save him?
How can I save his heart?

Sorry, Derieri.

I know Mael stole someone special to you.
You don't want me to save him.

No. Let's save him.

Just like you once saved me.

King! Enough!

This will all be over if I'm dead.

I don't want to lose
anyone special to me again!

Unbelievable!

What?

If you know the pain
of losing someone special,

then don't talk about dying.

Got it, Gowther?

Sorry.

This is really fun.

Both of you should att*ck me next.

-No, four of us!
-What?

Hi there, Sariel and Tarmiel.

Mael.

I'm glad to meet you again.

I'm sad that we can't be fully happy
for such a reunion.

Why do you oppose me?

Why are you protecting the criminal
who stole everything from me?

Isn't the mission of the Four Archangels
to exterminate the impure Demon Clan?

I understand how you feel.

But think about this.

We can slowly regain the time lost to us.

You understand how I feel?

Regain lost time?

You understand nothing!

I can't regain anything!

You aren't thinking straight!

Let go of the Commandment!

The Grace of Sunshine won't return
as long as you bear the Commandment.

I cannot.

Since I lost my Grace,
the Commandment is my only hope.

If you wish to steal this hope from me,
I'll give you something else instead.

Despair.

Save Mael?

It is true that Mael k*lled Monspiet.

But that is just because
he happened to be his opponent.

Monspiet and I should have d*ed
, years ago.

You and Meliodas saved me.

We k*lled members of the Goddess Clan

and other clans without any hesitation.

I believed that this was natural.

After you saved my life,
I didn't stop fighting.

I mocked Meliodas for running
to your side.

But I am the fool.

Why didn't I realize this earlier?

I don't know how Monspiet felt about me.

My feelings for Monspiet
are what's truly important.

When you told me that, I thought about it.

He was always
my precious partner and ally.

I just wanted him to live.

I must end this meaningless fight.

Stopping Mael
is the first step towards that.

Derieri…

However, I cannot remove
the Commandment myself.

I have an idea.

You just rest up here.

What?

Nadja, what should I do?

I cannot watch my friends get injured.

However, I cannot hurt Mael either.

Gowther!

Derieri.

Read my mind right now
and tell everyone besides Mael!

-What?
-Quickly!

BROADCAST

Now's my chance!

Stop right there!

Such an irritating little fly.

First, the Fairy King will distract Mael.

Once he is focused on him,

Sariel and Tarmiel will do all they can
to hold him on both sides.

To be honest, I want no part
of a Ten Commandments' plan!

I'll do anything if it means saving Mael!

I will att*ck Mael
until he is on the verge of death.

Combo Star!

Gowther, use that opening to find
a way to remove the Commandment.

How much longer?

Please just be
a little more patient, Mael.

This is all to save you.

Where is it?

Tarmiel, why?

Where?

I'm always the one…

getting the poor treatment…

How much longer?

Save me…

Found it!

Thank you, brother.

Accept it.

The love of the Angel of Death.

Do not resist conversion.
Ten Commandments.

Derieri!

Is he trying to take
the fourth Commandment?

Mael!

If you absorb more Commandments,

you will no longer be yourself!

Please, Mael! Stop!

I thought I failed to stop Mael…

I see. I d*ed.

This place is so familiar.

It looks just like the Demon Realm.

It seems like the rumor
Meliodas escaped the Demon Realm

with a prisoner
of the Goddess Clan was true.

It can't be…

How?

He is simply the leader
of the Ten Commandments.

Who knows?

Wait a second!

Meliodas was the leader
of the Ten Commandments long ago!

-You have to be kidding!
-What?

I don't care if he's the leader.
Betrayal is betrayal.

I cannot forgive this!

I'll capture him!

It's me.

This is the Demon Realm , years ago.

Hey, Derieri.

Why don't we copy Meliodas?

-What?
-What?

Don't go prattling on!

I'm just joking.

Or maybe I'm not.

Do you want to go or not?

I'm going alone!

Don't get so mad. I'm going too.

I can't let you go off on your own.

I see. You told me how you felt back then,

but I didn't even try to listen.

Thank you, Monspiet.

Thank you, Elizabeth.

Derieri, leave the rest to us and heal up.

Your desires will not be wasted.

We'll stop the Holy w*r and Mael.

And I will definitely save you, Meliodas!
