03x07 - Where Memories Lead

[bunniefuu]

The trial imposed by the Ten Commandments.

King and Diane were turned into Gloxinia and Drole

and sent to Britannia , years ago.

As the Holy w*r intensified, another Gowther appeared.

He said that his objective is to end the Holy w*r.

...and then end the Holy w*r.

Meanwhile, the treachery of Rou and the other humans

nearly caused King to lose control of himself,

but he stopped short at the last second, and made a safe return.

However, the one to appear before Diane, who's still caught in the Holy w*r, was...

the Executioner, Zeldris.

Isn't that kid...

Gowther, the Demon King is livid.

Return to prison immediately.

Otherwise, this will be seen as a rebellion,

and I'll have to deal with you.

Oh dear. I was hoping to conserve as much magical power as possible,

but if you're my opponent, that won't be possible.

This is a tale of ancient times,

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

The Ten Commandments, the Demon race's elite troops,

have been released from a , -year-old seal.

Their rule extends over all of Britannia, and a dark age approaches.

After a deadly struggle, the Kingdom of Liones drove back the Ten Commandments.

The counteroffensive to liberate Britannia was about to begin.

Standing in that vanguard is the pride of the kingdom, a legendary order of knights.

They're called the Seven Deadly Sins.

EPISODE SEVEN: DEADLY SINS, UNITE!

Both of you, leave this to me and run!

Stay back, Diane. It's too dangerous.

I'm the one he wants.

It'll be fine. I'm the king of the Giants right now.

Besides, we need you to stop the Holy w*r!

So please go!

We're leaving, Gowther.

Let's meet again, Diane!

You're Drole the Giant King, one of the wings of Stigma, aren't you?

I see. So this is that renowned dance of Drole's I've heard so much about.

A monstrous amount of the earth's magical power

is gathering to him.

Okay, come on! It's time to fight me fairly!

It's unfortunate to have you as an enemy.

Giga Crush!

Giga Fall!

No way. The Ten Commandments' att*ck didn't even make me flinch before!

Gaia Form!

Huh?

My magical power isn't activating.

I've sealed your magical power.

Don't worry, I'll return it to you soon.

Sealed my magical power?

Even if it's temporary, I'm the king of the Giants right now!

Yet he so easily...

He's somehow different from the other Ten Commandments.

He's too powerful!

My name is Zeldris.

I am the one who wields the magical power lent to me by the Demon King.

The Demon King's surrogate, so to speak.

The Demon King's magical power? The Demon King's surrogate?

Make your choice, Giant King Drole.

Either die right here, or join the Ten Commandments.

If you desire, I can grant you even more power.

What do you say, Drole?

It's not a bad offer.

As if I'd ever take such an offer.

As one of the Giant race,

which considers fleeing from battle to be more shameful than death,

I only had two choices at that time.

Either choose death, or join the Ten Commandments.

What do you mean?

Then even if Diane...

makes a different choice than you...

no, no matter which option she chooses, she can never return?

I just wanted to know.

Live as a member of the Ten Commandments,

or die as a member of the Giant race.

Which was the correct choice?

But...

Drole.

Diane.

Giant King Drole, the heavens have bestowed two things upon you.

That uncommon strength and loneliness.

Your physique greater than any other in the Giant race.

Your skin as blue as a sapphire.

That single magical eye.

Your four arms shaped like strange rocks.

Even among your clan, it seems like you've been treated like an outsider.

The king of the Giants?

Any Giant who resents and hates fighting isn't a member of the Giant race at all!

You're an outsider.

Just like me.

Because the Giant race values fighting and strength above all else,

you may be celebrated as the king of the Giants now,

but you don't have a single friend who truly understands you.

But we're different.

Because the Demon race's very existence is considered an outsider to the world.

My answer is...

Now, choose.

I've decided. No, it's already been decided.

Death?

Don't do it, Diane! You can't choose that one!

Or become a Ten Commandment?

Diane!

Yes!

Diane.

I made it back!

Impossible!

Which one did you choose?

No, you shouldn't have been able to return no matter what you chose.

So how did you...

Oh, about that.

I ran away.

Ran!

Run away!

You're back, too, King!

Thank goodness. I...

Kiss!

I love you.

Hey, Oslo. I was just having the best dream.

What kind of dream?

Well...

Diane and I...

we kissed!

It wasn't a dream.

Diane?

You scared me when you suddenly fainted.

Why did you ki...

I mean, I was really happy about it, but...

To thank you for keeping your promise from years ago, I guess?

My promise from years ago?

I'm coming back to you, no matter what.

I promise you.

Could it be that your erased memories are...

Gowther said it was an apology and a gift to me.

He restored my memories.

Gowther did...

The two Gowthers aren't the bad people you think they are.

I was such a jerk to him, wasn't I?

He said the precious memories carved deeply into our hearts,

even if you forget them for a while or they get all foggy,

never actually disappear.

There's something I've wanted to tell you for a long time.

You see...

until now, I've always loved you, and I always will.

King... do you still love me now?

I'll always love you, and I'll always be by your side!

Oh, hey, King, is your back okay?

My back?

They've sprouted!

My wings have sprouted.

It's like a dream!

Good for you!

Now I can become a proper Fairy King...

-Gloxinia said that's normal at first! -I'm just a...

Oh, hey, Diane. Where is Lord Gloxinia?

Over there.

I won't ask you to forgive me.

I just want you to let me say I'm sorry...

about Rou, and for being too afraid to find out if you were alive or dead.

That's all in the past.

Besides, both of us were prepared for it.

Brother.

It's not what you think, Oslo!

This is my elder brother, not our enemy!

Oslo!

It's natural for him to be hostile toward me.

Hey.

Oslo was born right after you vanished, Brother,

and he's been protecting me in your place.

And since I'm unable to serve him now,

he's been protecting King Harlequin in my place.

Oh hey!

Stop that. Come on, Oslo!

Hey, stop that.

Could it be?

The voice I heard from within someone's heart that day.

The next time I'm reborn, I swear I'll protect you.

I'll protect what you cherish in his place.

No matter what form I take.

You're one faithful guy, huh?

Oslo!

No, it's okay.

Come on, Oslo. Let Brother go!

King, let's go back to Liones together.

That way, you can see Elaine, right?

You should go.

If you're worried about the forest, I'll guard it in your place.

I don't know what's going on in the kingdom right now,

and that's why we should go there right now!

Because we're the Seven Deadly Sins!

Yeah. Besides, we have to save Gowther.

Right?

Please.

Guide me to the right path!

Yeah!

Okay!

Then we're counting on you, Oslo!

This brings back memories.

This is the old castle where we were framed for the m*rder of the grand master.

Hey, Merlin.

What did you want to talk about, gathering us in a place like this?

Do you remember His Majesty's vision?

This morning, His Majesty saw that same vision again.

When the moon shimmers at noon,

and the low-hanging fog

fills the kingdom.

Atop the peak of the fateful castle that made us traitors to the kingdom,

like a shimmer of hot air, another moon appears.

The Seven Deadly Sins...

I feel like I've seen this somewhere before.

...will gather once again.

Hey, everyone, long time no see.

Are you both in good health?

Where did you come out from?

Diane, King, are you all right?

I'm so happy to see everyone again!

If only the captain were still alive.

But I am alive.

Just barely, underneath your butt.

I've waited so long for this moment.

I see you've gathered at last.

The Seven--

It's the captain's ghost!

There we go.

How could such a foolish runt of a ghost even exist?

It's just as Mr. Ban says.

That is undoubtedly the captain, in the living flesh.

Could you please listen to...

Well, to sum up, a lot of stuff happened, and I came back to life.

You're really alive!

That's too summed up!

I made all these wrong assumptions about you,

and I said a lot of horrible things too.

So, I'm sorry.

King, where'd you get these wings?

Puny!

So they finally sprouted, huh? Congrats!

Now you can proudly join the ranks of the grownups!

But they're still kid-sized!

Jeez! What's your problem? I'm being serious here!

King, don't get mad.

Can't you see the captain and Ban are happy for you?

You think so?

Yes, they are!

Well, if you say so, Diane.

Has something changed?

So you noticed?

Well, it's hard for me to say it myself,

but I finally got my feelings across, or rather,

we connected, or maybe we've joined together, or...

Not you, I meant Diane!

Yes, I got my memories back.

Your memories? Is that true?

That's impossible.

Memories that have been purged can't be restored.

No, that's not true, Gowther.

The precious memories that are carved deep into your heart,

even if you forget them or they get all foggy, never disappear!

That's what your creator said.

So I'm going to fulfill the promise I made to him and you.

Gowther.

Together, let's get back the heart you lost!

The heart I lost?

According to my vision--

According to His Majesty's vision,

Gowther appeared, and he was lit up by the emotions that he once had.

What? Then could that mean...

Yes.

In the past, Gowther had a heart.

That's what we can infer.

About that, I can explain.

King Bartra?

I finally got to make my entrance.

-How long have you been here? -Don't ask.

I finally found it. Do you remember? Gowther.

Bartra, what is...

Gowther! Wait!

Your Majesty, what did you show him?

In the past, this was embedded in Gowther's chest.

According to what he himself told me, it's infused with a heart's magic.

A heart's magic.

Merlin, make me smaller!

Let's hurry and chase after Gowther!

The Seven Deadly Sins' Seven Codes,

Article Four.

"When one of us is in danger, everyone uses their combined strength to help!"

Yeah!
