Inside of Istar stood a weird group of people who seemed to be ready to die, but not yet. "So you mean to tell me, the reason on why you separated the Ten Commandments was to make it easier to eliminate them one by one?" Gilthunder asked him, his eyes showing nothing but puzzlement. Meliodas nodded eagerly, "Yep! Though don't worry, I made sure that (Y/N) didn't see anything!" Meliodas exclaimed though the said girl in the back glared at him while drinking some booze.

"You know I'm right here, right?" (Y/N) said in an angry tone. Meliodas looked back towards her, sending (Y/N) a warm smile. "I know!" (Y/N) groaned at his response as she looked away from him and lifted her cup, Escanor immediately pouring more.

"Smart move, however, how do you think we can find them while they're all separated?" Merlin asked him, her eyes criticizing his every movement. Meliodas let out a laugh as he looked up at Merlin, his gaze mocking. "Only time will tell, Merlin." Meliodas responded, however, everyone expected a smart, and well-thought-out answer, only to leave them to sigh.

Hawks, who had enough of no one noticing his new looks gave an angry huff as he trotted his way towards the others. "What about me! I went through all that pain all for you guys to not even notice my new look?!" Hawks exclaimed. Everyone turned around to stare at the pig, though not everyone gave satisfactory responses.

"You do look a bit different, Hawks. Did you get some sort of costume?" (Y/N) asked him, her eyes glancing over at Hawks only to return to the empty bottle. Hawks looked over at (Y/N) as his eyes were a blazing red. "A costume?! No! I went through a series of-" 

"I get it, I get it. Now may you please shut up and let me savor the last moments of freedom before I'm forced to train?" (Y/N) yawned at the end, giving the empty bottle of booze at Escanor. King floated towards (Y/N) as he gave her a criticizing look. (Y/N) noticed this and looked up at the figure that was on the pillow only for her to be picked up and placed next to him.

"There were too many eyes." King mumbled, though (Y/N) was able to hear it as she gave King a happy smile. "Thanks, King." (Y/N) said, her tone less serious and more childish. King looked away from her as the tip of his ears went red. "N-No problem." 

Having enough of this Ban let out a yawn as he rested his head near where (Y/N) was and looked at his captain. "So... where to next?" Ban asked Meliodas, though Meliodas just shrugged. "Maybe to stop the Ten Commandments. I was planning to go and find Escanor and all but since (Y/N) here found him already then we can just scratch that off the bucket list." Meliodas answered him, though Escanor gave him a confused look, but decided to not mention anything.

"My my, not to ruin the mood or anything but who is this lovely goddess? My lovely goddess, did it hurt?" Howzer asked (Y/N), his hand near her face. (Y/N) raised her eyebrow, "Did what hurt?" She asked him, though what she had just said must have been the worst mistake she ever made.

"When you fell from Heaven." Howzer finished, doing finger guns last. (Y/N) and Meliodas stared at him blankly as their eyes showed no emotion. Howzer let out a yelp when he felt being picked up and looked behind him only to see Ban with an angry look, as well as the others staring daggers at him which surely made him feel safe.

"Do you want to die?" Ban asked him casually, though his eyes told another tale. Howzer let out a nervous chuckled as he avoided Bans burning glare. "No, not really, no." Howzer answered, sweat pouring out of his face at a worrying rate.

Letting go of Howzer, Ban walked back to his spot as he laid his head next to (Y/N) as he gave a small smile in happiness. The other's glares seemed to slowly disappear as time went by as Howzer let out a relieved sigh as he massaged his neck. "Damn, they're such bullies." Howzer mumbled as he walked back to his friend, Gilthunder.

"So... Diane's gone? (Y/N) asked everyone as she calmly sipped some tea that King made her, if she could describe it in a word it would be heavenly. Meliodas nervously laughed as he scratched his head. Ban looked away from her as he cleaned some dishes. King just looked at her while she was sipping his tea. The others wanted to go to the nearest village to pick out some clothes so they went, leaving (Y/N) alone with a pervert, a Gordon Ramsey, and a tsundere prince.

"Yeah... it was nighttime when she sneaked out of the Boar Hat and went to go look for you. She was the least composed out of all of us in that situation, and that's saying a lot." King said to her as he too began to stir his tea, the cubes of sugars slowly disappearing. "I see, and we are going to go and find her, right?" (Y/N) asked them, looking up from her teacup. Meliodas nodded as he took a swing of his booze.

"Yep, though when I went to visit the commandments she wasn't there. (Y/N), you were there the whole time, right? You must know where Diane's at." Meliodas asked her, though (Y/N) just sighed and shook her head. "Nope, didn't hear or even see Diane in my time there. Diane must have gotten there while I was sleeping." (Y/N) said, her voice starting to get more agitated. Meliodas hummed as he poured himself another round of beer.

Looking at King (Y/N) pocked him in the shoulder making him look over at (Y/N) with an annoyed stare. "What?" King asked her, though (Y/N) just took a sip of her tea. "Aren't you going out there and go look for Diane?" (Y/N) asked him. King just looked away from her as he sighed. "Do I have to?" King said childishly, however, what he said surprised himself as his eyes became wide.

(Y/N) looked over at him in a questioning manner. King immediately got up from his seat as he looked over at (Y/N) with a red face. "O-Of course I wanna go rescue Diane!"King exclaimed, though his voice was louder than he wanted it to be as everyone stared at him making King clear his throat and sit back down.

Meliodas glared at him as he scoffed, "Then go do it then." Meliodas said to King, King also returning the glare. "B-But..." King mumbled though he was not heard as everyone went back to what they were doing.

Grasping back his teacup King took a long sip as he looked out the window and sighed. 'What the hell did I even say? Of course, I want to get Diane back! Though, why did I say that in the beginning as if I didn't want to get her back? However, I don't want to leave (Y/N) alone with these animals, I saw how they stared at her and I don't want any of them getting their way with her... but why do I even care! She means nothing to me, and I just meet her a month ago!' King thought to himself, his expression contorting into frustration.

Looking away from the window King glanced over at (Y/N) secretly as she was sipping her tea. A small smile spread over his face as his cheeks got red, though quickly concealed it by laying down his head on his arms. 

'I know I can't trust her just yet, but for now, she is a teammate so the least I can do is get to know her better, right? Yeah, besides, she's not that bad.' Seeing the flowing tree leaves from its branches dance beautifully with the wind, with no rhythm at all gave him a sense of happiness.

'For now, I'll just get to know her better and see if I can trust her, and protect her as well.' King concluded in his thoughts, giving a determined pat on the shoulder to himself.

Looking back over at (Y/N) he saw Ban and Meliodas trying to win over her attention as they began to shove booze and food at her face. Frowning, he decided to interfere as he saw (Y/N) face become slightly uncomfortable, and how did he do that? By joining the battle of course, but only to fight in his (Y/N) honor.

Yeah, his. That sounds nice, his (Y/N). Has a good ring to it, don't you think?
