"Let's get away from here, everyone!"

"Let's kill her while the killing's good."

"Don't be barbaric. I'll petrify her."

"I do believe burning her while she's unconscious would be a much better idea."

"(Y/N)-sama!"

"What does "sama" even mean?!"

Even though with all of these ideas given to their boss, Meliodas, he did not see anything that could change his mind. "Nah, let me handle this." Meliodas stated, his eyes serious as he crossed his arms on his chest. 

'Master...' (Y/N) sighed, disappointed in her master's decision. 


˜"*°•.˜"*°• ---- •°*"˜.•°*"˜


On land near a lake were the Seven Deadly Sins and their companions, relaxing and catching up on lost time as they enjoyed the calm scenery and food available to them. Well, two weren't.

"Ow! (Y/N)-sama! Be gentle!"

"You wouldn't be complaining if both of you didn't break your arms!" 

"It wasn't our fault! It was that lightning!"

"Lightning my ass!" (Y/N) yelled, tightening the wraps around Denki's wrist making him cry more. "We're telling the truth, (Y/N)-sama! Sparks of lightning did come out of Denki-san's hands! Just like green ones came out of mine!" Izuku swore, this only further angered (Y/N).

"Don't try to put the blame some lies! I told both of you to stay behind, but you didn't! Now you're hurt!" (Y/N) exclaimed, finishing tying Denki's sling and putting it over his arm. "We're fine now, (Y/N)-sama! So please, don't worry anymore!" Denki smiled, his smile blinding (Y/N). 

"They're right, (Y/N). Stop worrying about them and eat some tasty cooked fish!" Diane interrupted, thrusting the fish towards (Y/N) and poking her cheek with it. "No offense, Diane, but that's way too big." (Y/N) replied with a poker face, too mentally tired to deal with Diane's attempt of babying her. 

"Say "ah"!" Diane instructed, only for (Y/N) to be saved from none other than King. "Didn't you hear (Y/N)? She said that's that fish is way too big!" King exclaimed, putting himself in front of (Y/N) body in an attempt to shield her from Diane's vision only to fail. 

Hearing this, Diane frowned down at the small fairy. "(Y/N) once ate a whole cooked bear! I think she can handle a fish. Besides, she needs her nutrients!" Diane retorted, now pointing the fish towards King. 

"Ha! (Y/N) is completely ignoring you two!" Ban laughed as he was completely drunk with the beer from the tavern that he made (Y/N) bring to him. Ban's black eye was still slowly healing. 

Both of them turned towards where (Y/N) was only to find-- to their horror-- that (Y/N) was indeed ignoring them and instead was still scolding the two while making them some cooked meat. 

"(Y/N)!" Both of them yelled, crying imaginary tears as they looked away from the sight. "Calm down, you two." Meliodas demanded, sitting by (Y/N) as she was still cooking the meat. Turning to look at his captain, King saw Elizabeth and Hawks sitting beside (Y/N) as well. 

"Speaking of girls, I never asked." King neared Elizabeth, floating in front of her as both Meliodas and (Y/N) were now looking at King. "What is your relationship with this girl, (Y/N)?" King asked her, (Y/N) now glancing away from the cute fairy. 

"Ahh... she's a friend that we picked up and saved one day. Why do you ask?" (Y/N) questioned him, giving the fork to Meliodas as he didn't want her feeding the two injured boys. King shrugged, "No reason." 

"To be honest, I don't know much about her," 'That's a lie. I know everything down to her first life as a goddess.'  "but I do know that she's the third princess of the Kingdom of Liones, Princess Elizabeth if you will." (Y/N) answered his question, going back to try and calm Meliodas down from shoving the fork down their throats. 

King looked away from the sight only for a moment later for his eyes to widen, looking back over at the Princess in disbelief and horror. "A-A princess?! You should have said so!" King exclaimed, looking down at the relaxed (Y/N). Looking away from (Y/N), King instead looked down at his hands with a glare as he clenched his hands into fists. 

"If I had known, I would have made myself more presentable!" King announced, starting to make a weird sound making (Y/N) look up at King in confusion. 

'Is this dude powering up or something-'

Spitting out her apple juice (Y/N) looked up at the transformed King in disbelief, remembering the first time that she saw ever King that he was in that form. 

"Your clothes changed!"

"Look closer!"

"It requires mental effort to change into this form." King explained to the others, putting a dainty hand on his chest. "Sheesh, what a pig." Hawks commented making Ban look at him in disbelief. 

Bowing down towards Elizabeth, he maintained eye contact with her as he presented himself. "I am King the Grizzly Sin of the Seven Deadly Sins. I am glad to make your acquaintance." King introduced himself, his odor making (Y/N) cover her nose due to her sensitive nose. 

"O-Of course, the pleasure is all mine." Elizabeth shyly responded, her also being surprised by King's transformation. "I was unaware you were a princess! Please forgive my poor manners in the Necropolis!" King begged for forgiveness, nearing Elizabeth's face making her slightly panic. 

"You're using poor manners right now, King. Nearing a princess so closely is sure to get you beheaded." (Y/N) commented, getting back from getting more apple juice. Yelping from the realization King backed away and began to ask for forgiveness more. 

"Forgive me! Forgive me! Forgive me-!"

"Don't worry about it!" Elizabeth mentally cheered as she watched King relax a little. "Please don't be so stressed out. Feel free to relax." Elizabeth reassured him, beaming at the sweating King. "Oh. Well, if you insist." King replied, puffing out of his form as he fell on top of his green leopard pillow. 

King sighed in exhaustion, relaxing on his pillow. "I'm out of practice; that was exhausting." King whispered, (Y/N) trying to go to his side only for her necklace to begin to burn her skin making her sit back down. 

"His clothes changed back!"

"Look closer, damn it!"

"I have to say, you sure are powerful, Sir King." Elizabeth complimented King, King floating around while hugging his pillow making (Y/N) secretly squeal. "True, I'm fairly powerful, but you guys should have beaten that Holy Knight if you'd been able to unleash your real power." At this, the four stiffened up as (Y/N) got up from her seat on the ground. 

"True power? (Y/N)-sama, you must really be powerful!" Izuku exclaimed, smiling up at the sweating (Y/N). "Fess up, you three. Where are your sacred treasures?" King demanded, glaring at the four. 

"I think we might need more wood..." (Y/N) stated, turning around and quickly walking away from the group only for King to appear in front of her. "Fess up." King demanded once more, (Y/N) stepping away as she let out a nervous chuckle. 

"I lost mine."

"I sold mine!"

"Mine got stolen."

'You're the Fox Sin of Greed, your magical power is literally called Snatch. You're the last person that I would ever think could be robbed.' (Y/N) sweatdropped only to snap her attention back on King once she felt him glaring at her. 

"Yours? Where is it?" King asked her, continuing pressing her where her's was. "Some Holy Knight's stole mine when I was looking for a book." (Y/N) confessed, melting on the ground due to the amount of courage that took out of her. 

'I've never been so irresponsible before! I feel like dying!'


˜"*°•.˜"*°• ---- •°*"˜.•°*"˜


"The Next Generation?" Meliodas questioned. Behind the group, the sun was already setting as dark was soon covering half of the sky. (Y/N) joining King on top of the pillow finding standing to be such a chore. 

"Apparently, there have been some failed apprentices who have gained powers like those of a Holy Knight overnight." King explained, braiding (Y/N) hair as an expression of remembrance settled on his features while doing so. 

"Guila for instance." King started. "She was a Holy Knight apprentice until just the other day. Can you believe that?" King asked them, this making (Y/N) chuckle. "Her?" Meliodas questioned, just as confused as the others. "In spite of the mess we're in you took the sacred treasure King Bartra bestowed on the Seven Deadly Sins when it was founded and sold it?!" King exclaimed, glaring down at the others as (Y/N) was now behind King, protecting herself from King's glare attack. 

"I needed to use money for the tavern." Meliodas defended himself, doing an 'OK' sign as he scratched the back of his head. 

"Yours was stolen?!" 

"When I was thrown into prison." Ban stated, hanging onto King as he was now flat-out drunk. 

"You lost yours?!" 

"It's not easy walking around when you have something big with you!" Diane huffed, sitting back down on the floor, and turned her head away from King. 

Looking back over his shoulder King melted as he saw (Y/N) giving him a puppy face. "Please don't kill me." (Y/N) asked, this statement completely being repelled from her puppy expression. "W-Well, since it was robbed from you only they are to blame!" King reassured her, this making (Y/N) give a smug look over at the others who were yelled at. 

'He's my best friend, deal with it suckers.' (Y/N) smiled back at King, snuggling closer to his chest making King begin to panic. "Don't be in such a huff, King. These guys do pretty well barehanded." Hawks reassured him, this making King look over at Hawks. 

"Good Sir Pig."

"S-Sir Pig?"

"Let's say that this lake represents the mana of one of the sins." (Y/N) sweatdropped at what he said, a single thought crossing her mind. 'Is this why you brought us near a lake?'

"How much of a lake's water could you scoop out using your hands?" King asked him, this making Hawks and (Y/N) look at him in confusion. "Hands?" King asked, lifting his two-nailed hand to show King. "Right." King answered him, (Y/N) sweatdropped. 'Then very, very little water. Like, I'm talking a little drop of water here.'

"No matter how much mana there is, your hands limit you, but if they used a weapon, especially their sacred treasures," Stretching his hands towards where the water is, King caused some water from the lake to spiral with one another and spring up. "they could draw forth vastly greater amounts of mana." King explained to them, a huge chunk of the lake now in the air and turned into a blob. 

"Sacred treasures sure are awesome, huh?" Meliodas asked Hawks, though instead Hawks was mad. "Oh, it all makes sense! Why the hell did you give yours up?!" Hawks shook an unfazed smiling Meliodas, somehow being able to with those hands. 

Seeing the big chunk of water falling (Y/N) looked back at Meliodas in worry. "In any case, we will need to locate your sacred treasures. Assuming that you're serious about saving the realm." King questioned, sitting back down with (Y/N) as he continued to braid her hair. 

"Excuse me... Sir King, you were working with someone inside the castle, weren't you?" Elizabeth questioned, walking towards where the two were while Meliodas was biting a handkerchief that he got from somewhere in jealousy, a drunk Ban thinking that a tree was (Y/N) and hugging it. 

"Yes, more or less." King responded, getting lightly hit on the head by (Y/N). "Do you know what became of my father and sisters? The King and the other princesses?" Elizabeth questioned him, worry but hope flaring in her blue eyes. 

"No, I'm sorry." King apologized, finishing braiding on the hair of (Y/N) and putting some flowers in it. "Oh, I see..."  


˜"*°•.˜"*°• ---- •°*"˜.•°*"˜


"This is the room I'm sharing?!" King exclaimed in disbelief and bliss, floating next to (Y/N) bed as she was already in her nightgown. "Pervert." Hawks commented, walking out of the room as Ban went and looked around. 

Smacking Ban's head, (Y/N) walked over to her bed and kneeled beside it pulling out four blankets and two pillows. "Meliodas said that he would sleep with Elizabeth in one condition; that the two of you sleep on the floor or float nowhere near me." (Y/N) stated, handing King and Ban two blankets and one pillow. 

Both King and Ban looked over at (Y/N) in disbelief while the other two just sighed. "We have to deal with that rule, too." Denki commented, sleeping up as he didn't want to make his left hand hurt, Izuku doing the same. 

"However, she can still touch us." Izuku smiled over at the two glaring males as he laid beside (Y/N) bedside, Denki on the other side while the other two had to sleep in the corner. 

"Good night, Ban, King, Izuku, and Denki." (Y/N) smiled over at them, walking back towards her bed and undoing it as she got on top, pulling the covers over her body as she stared at the open window that showed the starry night sky. 

Both of the sins looked at (Y/N), sighing as they prepared to go to sleep. "Good night, (Y/N)." Both of them said in unison, Ban laying down on the blanket and covering himself with the other one as King laid down on his pillow, pulling (Y/N) blanket over him as he smelled her scent. 

"Good night, (Y/N)-sama!" Izuku smiled back at (Y/N) snuggling closer at the blanket and closed his eyes. "Good night, my goddess!" Denki exclaimed, pulling the blanket over his head as he tried to block the glares that the sins were giving him. 

(Y/N) smiled at this and also snuggled closer to her blanket, leaning over to her bedside and blowing out the candle, darkness soon settling in the room. 

"What about a good night kiss?"

"What about a good night cuddle?"

"That goes against the first and only rule, King and Ban."
