05x07 - Hope, Conflict, and Despair

[bunniefuu]

Fusing together the four Commandments,

Mael has become a frightening figure.

The allies fall one after another
against his overwhelming power.

Oslo!

As King despairs at his own inability,

he remembers his promise to Diane.

Filled with a will
to protect people precious to him,

the true power
of the Fairy King Harlequin awakens.

Hey! What's that?

I can see a power
that is as deep and blue as a pure lake!

It isn't just power…

His entire atmosphere is different.

Are you really the King I know?

Don't worry, Diane.

I am me.

No way! Did you read my mind?

Now, Mael.

I shall end this conflict.

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
HOPE, CONFLICT, AND DESPAIR

-Don't get in my way.
-I cannot forgive my crimes.

-Know my shame and pain.
-What did I do?

-Hate…
-Why did I…

-Elizabeth…
-Elizabeth…

-Elizabeth…
-Hate…

-Elizabeth…
-Once again, as one.

Maledictions pouring
from his body without end.

It seems you are surprisingly talkative.

Elizabeth, did you hear anything?

No.

LIGHTBALL OF LOVE

Elizabeth shall die
and her corpse and soul shall be mine.

Not on my watch.

What happened to us?

True Spirit Spear Chastiefol.
Form Eight "Pollen Garden."

What? No, King!

You can't use the Spirit Spear
if you protect us!

True Spirit Spear Chastiefol.
Form Two "Guardian."

He's using multiple Spirit Spears?

SCYTHE OF SILENCE

True Spirit Spear Chastiefol.
Form Five "Increase."

Mael, we don't know you well.

However, we do have some things in common.

We lost precious time

and precious people.

That which is lost
cannot be returned again.

Even still, you can live
for the precious people in your life now.

I am sure you have someone.

A person who cares for you deeply.

Don't get in my way!

ARROW OF SALVATION

True Spirit Spear Chastiefol.
Form One: Chastiefol!

Revenge is only the soil
that grows more hate.

Therefore, we shall not k*ll you.

If you cannot accept that,
I am always willing to fight.

I, the Fairy King Harlequin.

Mael!

I knew it.

What is happening now?

He suddenly seems to be in a lot of pain!

Nadja, please let me go.

Right now, my friend…

My precious friend is in trouble.

I hurt Mael so terribly.

No. I cannot let you go anywhere.

What?

Gowther.

You stole my purity and soul.

That became a heavy shackle
that shall constrain your body forever.

Forever?

It's too late for regret now.

-I'm glad!
-What?

I don't regret anything.

Even if I could go back,

I would choose to meet you
and go down the same path each time.

In my heart, you are the only
special and precious girl.

I want to live with my feelings
for you forever.

Thank you, Gowther.

What?

Gowther!

Captain Leftovers,
could you do me a favor?

What?

Hey, King, what will happen to Mael?

He's at his limit.

He may not be able to be saved now.

He may be an Archangel,

but he absorbed the power of
four Commandments that reject one another.

With his strength and power exhausted,
Mael will be devoured by the Commandments.

Mael!

Wake up, Mael!

We're right above him. Now what?

Mael, would you let me have it once again?

A chance to save you!

Invasion!

It's so pretty here.

I used to visit this hill often
when I wanted to be alone.

Elizabeth found me here,

and gently consoled me.

I want to carve this image in my heart
before I silently disappear.

Elizabeth doesn't want that.

I have no right to live.

These hands have taken countless lives.

I even tried to k*ll the woman I love.

You should go back.

This world will disappear soon too.

You have to be saved!

No one wants that.

No one is waiting for my return.

I absorbed that impure power of darkness

and abandoned my piety and allies.

Mael is right!

-What?
-Get out, doll.

Outsiders must leave!

Mael!

You…

The four Commandments!

If you don't leave,
we shall devour you too!

You cannot execute your powers
without a vessel.

You cannot stop me!

Mael.

Only your will can expel
the Commandments from you.

You still have time.

Find the strong will to live!

Do you intend on humiliating me again
after giving me my cruel fate?

-I want you to live!
-Get out, doll.

-I want to apologize too.
-Get out.

Then answer me.

Why did you choose me?

You said it, didn't you?

In order to place someone equal
to Meliodas in the Demon Clan,

you chose me.

But there were other warriors
who were equal to him.

Elizabeth.

And my brother, Ludociel!

However, you chose me.

Why?

Why?

The person who chose you
was the mage, Gowther, who made me.

If this is in your memories,

you should remember my face.

What?

-Don't k*ll me!
-Stop!

You're okay. Don't be afraid.

I shall free you
from your cage of impurity.

I shall pray for you.

I pray that you are reborn as pure souls.

Do you have any last words?

Gowther…

I just wanted to see you one more time.

What was that?

Gowther.

-She looked just like you.
-That wasn't me.

The name of the woman you k*lled
was Glariza.

She was a Demon whom I was molded from.

She was Gowther's lover.

Why did I receive such punishment?

An unforgivable crime.

Why me?

Do you understand how I feel?
How could you?

We don't have time.

Mael!

Expel the Commandments!

If you don't, you will…

Mael…

He's gone.

Take that.

No more interruptions!

-We shall be together until you die, Mael.
-Can I have your body if you die? Please?

There is a limit to foolishness.

I have reached it.

Give us your body,
and we'll give you more power.

Let us use you as we wish!

The unforgivable…

-Mael!
-Go.

Get out of me!

What is Gowther doing?

Trying to save Mael!

Seriously?

Please! Gowther!

If we interfere, we may break the spell.

Mael's body is on the edge of destruction.

Let's trust Gowther!

Mael's body!

My eyes!

No! Did he fail?

Gowther!

Thank goodness.

Thanks.

What's this spell?

Invitation to Reincarnation.

A technique that can be used
just once upon a soul

to reincarnate them while preserving
the memories of their past life.

If they seek to punish me
after they reincarnate,

I will accept that.

In that case,
I'll accept the punishment with you.

Mael.

Come to Camelot with us.

Will I now fight the Demon Clan
as a member of the Goddess Clan?

Who desires this?

My brother…

Elizabeth…

Sariel and Tarmiel,
whom I hurt with these hands…

All of my brethren…

No one wants me!

I do!

Please give us your power.

Elizabeth…

This is not for the victory of either
the Goddess Clan or Demon Clan.

It is to end the Holy w*r.

What?

Hey, King.

Are Escanor and Merlin all right?

I am also worried for them, Diane.

We must hurry.

Those pigs returned!

I guess Mael didn't make it.

What?

Hendrickson!

Why did you heal me instead of yourself?

I'm fine. Don't worry.

Merlin, stay with me.

Yes, Escanor.

It appears that you recovered.

Thanks to Sunshine
being charged by Rhitta.

More importantly…

It appears that destiny is on our side.

Have you already recovered?

Don't underestimate the recovery
of the highest-ranking Demons!

Don't shout. It hurts my head.

It appears that someone has been
even more hurt than us.

Naturally.

What did you do to Lord Ludociel?

It wasn't their doing.

That may be the work of the mage, Gowther.

He used a forbidden curse
to alter the memories of all

who knew Mael of the Four Archangels,
even the Demon King himself!

Ms. Merlin…

What does that mean?

Who would have guessed that
transforming Mael into Estarossa

would have forced the Goddess Clan
to use the Coffin of Eternal Darkness?

However, this curse was now lifted
for some reason.

It has dealt a shock to our minds.

It appears

that this had the greatest impact on those
most deeply connected to Mael.

Estarossa of the Ten Commandments…

Mael of the Four Archangels?

However, in that case,
Zeldris, why are you…

Why didn't I receive much of a shock?

Unfortunately,

I never looked up to Estarossa
as an older brother.

I feel relieved to discover
that he wasn't my real brother.

Well then, shall we begin round two?

No. Leave this to us.

What?

Master Zeldris, you should preserve
your strength for when their allies,

the Seven Deadly Sins, appear.

It can't be helped!

This is our mission.

In the past,
the Demon King created one Demon

to be a trusted retainer.

It was named the Original Demon.

However, the Original Demon
became drunk on its own power.

It rebelled against the Demon King.

This power…

Naturally, its mutiny failed
and it was punished.

Its body and mind were divided,
and it was given a crucial role.

Raise the two princes as candidates
for the next Demon King.

They were ordered to guide the princes.

Cusack! Chandler!

Don't tell me you are…

Master Zeldris, please fulfill our wish.

Ensure that the Young Master Meliodas
becomes the next Demon King.

I see.

That strange beast guided you here.

And your coming here

means you've realized
the existence of the gate.

Go, Mr. Ban! Mr. Meliodas!

I will charge my way to my brother,
Demon King!

-What?
-What?
