【Chapter 17】
❝ 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐜𝐮𝐭𝐞. ❞

Once (Y/N) went inside the Boar Hat the rest were left outside, still trying to process what the hell just happened. Even through the mist of their confusion, Meliodas who never seems to be fazed by anything just happily skipped inside the tavern. Looking back to the others Meliodas said, "Hey, are you guys coming?" The rest of the sins unconsciously nodded as their eyes still held astonishment at the power of (Y/N), the biggest mystery of them all.
Looking around inside the tavern (Y/N) and the other sins found it completely trashed, beer bottles shattered and chairs and table destroyed into splinters of wood. As Merlin went up towards the rooms she found them in mint condition, not harmed or touched in any way as they have seen when they left.
Even though Merlin has seen many things throughout the days, nothing that she has seen can compare with the power that (Y/N) has shown today, 'truly, being able to contort a natural element against its will turning it into a huge blow of concentrated wind to blow away nine of the Ten Commandments is no joke, none of them were able to resist the blast, to others that will lead to extreme exhaustion and eventually, death. However, when (Y/N) made that blast she didn't even seem to break a sweat. Makes me wonder what else she can do.'
Hearing footsteps going up the stairs Merlin immediately got out of her thoughts as she turned around with her usual confident smirk. Seeing that it was Elizabeth who causes her to go out of her thoughts made her give her a slight nod as she passed right by here and towards Gowther who was downstairs reading.
Sitting down next to Gowther Merlin let themselves engulf each other in silence, that is until Gowther let out an exasperated sigh with him getting the bookmark that was on the table and placing it in his last read. Looking up slightly towards Merlin he spoke with his same neutral tone, "Is there something you want of me, Merlin?" Letting out a low chuckle Merlin looked straight in his eyes, "Let's talk somewhere more private, shall we?" When she was about to get up Gowther gave the last comment, "It sounds like we're going to make love in private, or so I've heard when walking down streets and from books."
His last comment made Merlin give him an irritated look, with Escanor sadly overhearing it making him well up in anger, and it didn't help that it was daytime. Once they went outside the tavern quickly became quiet, though (Y/N) broke the awkward silence as usual.
"So, can anyone tell us four on what we missed in the meeting? We are also a part of this war as well so we should also get the juicy details." (Y/N) said in her normal tone, everyone looked at her with insecure looks, should they tell her? Even though it would probably result in heads spinning it's worth a shot, almost.
(ᴛʜɪꜱ ɪꜱ ᴡʜᴇʀᴇ ᴛʜᴇ ᴏʀɪɢɪɴᴀʟ ᴀɴɪᴍᴇ, ᴛʜᴇ ꜱᴇᴠᴇɴ ᴅᴇᴀᴅʟʏ ꜱɪɴꜱ, ᴡɪʟʟ ʙᴇ ᴛᴡɪꜱᴛᴇᴅ ᴀ ʙɪᴛ ᴛᴏ ꜱᴜɪᴛ ᴛʜᴇ ɪɴᴄᴏᴍɪɴɢ ᴍᴇꜱꜱ. ᴅᴜᴇ ᴛᴏ ʜᴇʀ ᴀʀʀɪᴠᴀʟ ᴀɴᴅ ᴇxɪꜱᴛᴇɴᴄᴇ, ᴛʜɪɴɢꜱ ᴡɪʟʟ ᴄʜᴀɴɢᴇ ᴀ ʙɪᴛ ꜱᴏ ᴘʟᴇᴀꜱᴇ ʙᴀʀᴇ ᴡɪᴛʜ ᴍᴇ.)
Meliodas, being the leader, was the none that everyone was looking at. What? Do you actually think that they were going to tell (Y/N) the plan? No, never will they ever try to dig their own grave. Gulping, Meliodas gave (Y/N) a sheepish expression, "Well (Y/N), you see, our original plan was riskier as well more dangerous, but with your arrival, you have made things easier for us! You see, the plan is, you will go to the Ten Commandments and ask to join them, and with their proposal just now this will help a lot more with the plan! So (Y/N), what do you-" Before Meliodas could ask his question he was grabbed by the front collar and thrown out a nearby window and into a mountain.
With an infuriated expression (Y/N) glared at everything in the whole world in just one moment. "You said what!" The room dropped thirty degrees colder as (Y/N) gave the direction of where Meliodas went with a deadly glare, who would have thought that the chill girl who they have met not so long ago had such a drastic mood swing like 0-100, just like when Diana found out that another girl was traveling with them, good times.
Hearing a slight shift in the wind (Y/N) quickly became alert as she sidestepped to her right. Looking back at the thing that was about to hit her she found out that it was Meliodas who was heading directly for her chest but landing in a bunch of broken shards of glass and splinters of wood. (Y/N) covered her mouth as she gave out a little chuckle towards the pathetic sight of Meliodas who was getting helped out by Ban and Diana.
King went next to her as he let out a disapproving sigh, seriously what's with people and sighing today? Looking to his left he saw (Y/N) still looking at the fallen Meliodas, tugging at her sleeve she turned around to see King pointing at the mess of the tavern. "Oh, sorry about that. I just didn't want to do anything rash like fighting them by myself so I decided to trap them in here, though I suspected for them to do more damage than this so it can't be that bad." (Y/N) said with a nervous tone to her words, oh how she wished they didn't make her clean it up, she feels too lazy to do so.
Meliodas suddenly appeared beside her making her jump to her right just into Kings' pillow, helping her up King began to pay attention to the incoming show that's about to happen. "You know (Y/N), the Ten Commandments did ruin the tavern on the first floor, and since it was you who traped them in here it's your responsibility to clean up after them, no go. The broom is in the closet in the kitchen, the rest will be left to you." Meliodas said with a mischievous tone and expression as an evil aura began to erupt from him resulting in (Y/N) already going towards the kitchen in a quest to get the broom.
Merlin and Gowther entered the tavern only to see, to their relief, (Y/N) gone. Merlin was the first one to speak about the plan after Meliodas, though he made sure that only the sins as well as Elizabeth and Jericho to listen in. "I heard a loud boom in the mountain that is just across from the tavern, and the throw came from the Boar Hat. So I suppose you already told (Y/N) about her involvement in the plan?" To Merlin's question, Meliodas only nodded, stretching his muscles now and then.
"This is really not good, but it was expected. One of us has to convince her to join in with the idea for her to put all effort into it, who will go?" Merlin asked as she looked around the room with a questioning face, everyone in the Boar Hat raised their hands, well, except Hawks, that guy never wakes up.
Though there were more candidates than Merlin thought there would be, she still found this as a good thing. Now, (Y/N) seems like a person who can be chill and kind, but when you piss her off a complete reincarnation of the devil. Who would be able to fit perfectly to convince her into this?
As Merling was weighing the pros and cons she found that the best solution would be...Diana. Someone caring and gentle to the people she loves, yet brave when others need her. Certainly, the only cable of giving her a good girl time without anything too sappy going on, perfect to be able to convince someone like (Y/N).
"I pick...you Diana." Merlin said as she pointed a finger at Diana, Diana squealed in happiness. 'Finally! I certified girl's night out! Though it's only for two girls...that doesn't matter, me and (Y/N) will have so much fun!' Diana thought, and once (Y/N) came back with the broom she got to work, as well as the other sins helping her here and there.
