[dramatic music playing]

[narrator] Meliodas enters the Demon King
and Zeldris' mindscape to save Zeldris,

and is soon joined by Gelda.

Meanwhile, in the real world,

the Seven Deadly Sins continue
their fierce battle with the Demon King.

The magic lake,
which was the source of his power,

has finally vanished,
thanks to Diane's Mother Creation.

Also…

[Escanor] And we just so happen
to have one more piece of bad news

that just came in for you.

What?

It's now high noon.

[intense music playing]

THE ONE

Interesting.

So this must be the power that defeated
my sons, Meliodas and Zeldris.

The one that lasts only a minute.

I'm intrigued.

Do your worst, then.

I want to find out for myself

just what this power
of yours is capable of.

Poor, impudent Demon King.

Did you say "poor, impudent"?

Escanor, we're here to help too!

Stay out of this, all of you.

[all gasping]

[Escanor] This has been
a long time coming.

Let's give him some room.

[intense music playing]

[narrator] This is a tale
of ancient times.

An era before the human
and non-human worlds were forever divided.

The Holy War seemed to be over..

However, the Demon King managed
to resurrect himself

by taking over the body of Zeldris.

The brave heroes continue their fight

to eliminate the root of all evil.

The final battle
of the Seven Deadly Sins begins now.

EPISODE 18
THE KING SINGS ALONE

[Escanor grunting]

This looks rough.
You two should stay behind me!

[Demon King]
Have a good taste of this, human.

[Escanor grunting]

This is the power of the Demon King.

[Escanor groaning]

You'll find
I'm in a whole different dimension

compared to my good-for-nothing offspring.

Possibly,
but this is nothing more than pain.

[Escanor efforting]

[intense music playing]

Your physical strength is impressive,

but I sense no feelings from your strikes.

You're spewing nonsensical delusions.

You're a fool!

-[Escanor grunting]
-[Demon King groaning]

I can't believe
that he's enduring Escanor's attacks,

even while he's in his current state.

Even so, the Demon King
is definitely taking some damage.

[Demon King straining, yelling]

[Ban scoffing]

The biggest problem we've got is time.

[Escanor growling]

I really must commend you.

I never knew there was a human

who could manage
to hold his own against me as an equal.

That said, you must understand
that you still cannot win.

You've run out of time.

[Escanor groaning]

[Escanor] My friend,
I can finally fulfill my promise.

Wait a minute.
What's going on with Escanor?

How is he able
to sustain The One for over a minute?

[Escanor growling]

[Meliodas] Escanor,

you couldn't have…

[man] Your charges will now be read aloud.

For the crimes
of repeatedly terrorizing towns

on the outskirts of the kingdom,

assaulting the imperial Holy Knights
and the Great Holy Knight, Zaratras,

who reported to the scene soon after.

Hey. Are you okay, brother?

I'm still having a hard time believing it.

Is this really the same man
I saw during the daytime?

[man] As well as
for conducting yourself arrogantly

when brought before his Royal Highness,

the accused will now
be pronounced his sentence..

Oh really?

This is the man in question?

The arrogant criminal Escanor
shall be given 1,000 lashes

and then crucified!

[chuckling nervously]

There seems to have been
some sort of misunderstanding.

All I did was defeat the monster
that had been plaguing those villages,

but then, for some reason,
all the villagers were afraid of me.

I swear it.

And as for my behavior
toward the king and his Holy Knights,

well… well that was me,

but… but not really me.

[judge] Note any objections
loud and clear.

[Escanor yelping]

[Escanor whimpering]

No. I have no objections.

Please just kill--

[Meliodas] Hold up. I'll take this guy in.

[Escanor gasping]

[Meliodas chuckling]

Huh? But who are you?

[crickets chirping]

Is this kid the seventh one of us?

[King] This kid? I don't know.
I think he's pretty old for a Human.

[Gowther] He looks quite different
from the descriptions we've heard.

Come on. You're kidding, right, Captain?

Do you really think
I'm the type to joke around?

[Ban chuckling] Good one. 'Course I do.

Who…

Who are all these people
and what exactly am I doing here?

As of today, consider yourself one of us.

You're the newest member
of the Seven Deadly Sins.

[Escanor] One… one of you?

So tell us, new guy.
What kind of things can you do?

[Escanor yelping]

I am obviously a Giant,

and I also have the ability
to manipulate the earth.

[sheepishly] Oh. I, uh… Huh?

All right, pervert. No need to stand there
and stare down her shirt like that.

[Diane] King's a fairy.

He can be a little grouchy, but he could
also fly and has mysterious powers.

Neat, huh?

Ban's, uh…

Well, he's a sneaky thief.

Diane,
you are so gonna get slapped for that.

[Meliodas chuckling]

[Diane] And this is Gowther.
He has the ability to read people's minds.

[Gowther] Combat class 15.

I'm surprised. That's the same as a child.

[Escanor] Uh, thanks, I guess?

[Merlin] I'm glad you made it, Escanor.

[lively music playing]

This is Merlin,

and she happens to be the most powerful
wizard in all of Britannia.

A… a pleasure, Lady Merlin.

This woman looks so much like her.

Th…

This is actually our second time meeting.

[Diane] Hold on. What?
When did you meet this guy, Merlin?

A few days ago.

We heard about him
through some unbelievable rumors,

so we sought him out to meet him.

Okay. What I wanna know is
do you like big girls?

I, uh… Not particularly.

Good answer!

[Ban] So, anyway, what's your specialty?

What do you do?

[Escanor] Uh…

Are you a knife expert? Bow and arrow?

Or what about espionage?

Wait. Don't tell me.
You're an assassin, right?

-I…
-What?

-P-po…
-What?

It's poetry.

[somber music playing]

[Rosa] Please take care
of yourself, Master Escanor.

[Escanor] No. I don't want
to run away all by myself.

[Rosa] Everything's going
to be all right. I promise.

[Escanor whimpering]

I need you to trust me.

By no means will you be alone.

[Escanor crying]

[Escanor] Rosa, I'm all alone.

[snoring]

[crickets chirping]

It's going to be morning soon.

I need to leave fast.

Farewell, I say,
as I make my solitary departure.

The boy with the unruly blonde mane,

the elegant lass with jet-black tresses.

I felt the warmth
that only a person could give.

It will forevermore
keep the night closer to my heart.

[Merlin] I see.

[Escanor gasping]

[Merlin] So this is the poetry skill
you spoke of.

[Escanor gasping]

[Escanor] Lady Merlin!

But how did you…

Now, now.
Don't answer a question with a question.

What's your reason to leave?

[Escanor] It's… Well…

You saw it for yourself.

It's that cursed form
I take during the day.

There's no doubt that sometime, somewhere,
I'll end up hurting all of you.

You think you would hurt us?

[Escanor] I'm an abomination.

I should have never been born.

I should have died long before this day.

[inaudible]

[Merlin chuckling]

[Merlin] You really are
a very interesting man.

[Escanor gasping]

Hey! I'm being serious!

[Escanor gasping]

[Meliodas] I mean, yeah.
Sure, your curse or whatever it is,

must be pretty vicious,

but none of us are so weak
that it could actually hurt us.

And I'll prove it, okay?

Let me test that strength out.

Your caution's got me curious.

[Escanor] You shouldn't
joke around like that.

[Merlin] His aura changed.

[Meliodas] Ugh. First it was Ban
and now you accuse me of joking around?

I'm being serious here.

[Escanor] I'm warning you.
Turn around and go back inside.

If you come one step closer,

I can't guarantee you'll survive
what will happen.

[Meliodas] Hmm.

Guess I'll have
to take a step and find out.

-[door opening]
-[Ban yawning]

Hey, Captain.

Why don't we have
another round of drinks before we--

[blow landing]

[Escanor] This is why.

This is the reason I told you to stop.

[Diane yawning]

What's with all the noise?

It's way too early to be…

[both] Huh?

[Escanor roaring]

[yelling]

[efforting]

[Escanor] Somebody, anybody, stop me!

Put an end to this miserable life!

[dramatic music playing]

Punching away at some innocent mountains?

Not the most efficient way
to blow off steam.

I'm here if you'd like to talk.

Not much to discuss.

[sighing] This is the reason
I've lived my life in isolation.

When someone reaches out
to give me a hand,

I admit it makes me so happy,

but the moment I try to use my power
to repay their kindness in some way,

they get frightened of me and disappear.

[people screaming]

Thanks to this abominable power of mine,

I've always thought it best
to be on my own.

I understand,
but why not consider us another option?

We could find the key
to controlling that power together.

It is not only your looks
that are identical to her.

[Merlin] Hmm?

Even after having seen my curse,

you continue
to say such kind things to me.

The same way Rosa did.

And those lonely
and piercing eyes of yours?

They're just like hers too.

Thank you.

But I have no right
to such benevolence now.

I have blood on my hands.

The blood of two, in fact.

[Escanor crying]

[Meliodas] Whose blood
do you have on your hands?

[Escanor] Hmm?

Yo!

[Escanor screaming]

Are you a ghost?

H-how are you still…
I-I mean, you were… Because I…

We're real. And now you know
you're not the only monster around here.

[Diane] There they are! Hey!

[Escanor] Huh?

[Meliodas] We're all like you.

Misfits in our own way.

We all have our share of baggage.

[emotional music playing]

[Escanor sighing]

So does knowing that
make you feel any better?

If so, you should join the Sins.

Your power's amazing,
and could really come in handy.

[sighing] If you want it,
I will give it to you.

But no matter what I do,
I can't seem to control it,

and it always ends up hurting people!

I never wanted
this cursed power in the first place!

You have no idea what sort of living hell
this ability has put me through!

[Gowther] It's what drove you,
the prince of the kingdom of Castellio,

out of your homeland.

Your one and only confidant,
your maid, Rosa,

betrayed the country
so that you could escape.

Wait. How did you know about that?

[Gowther] Years later, you returned
to the kingdom worried about Rosa,

but Castellio had already fallen,

and you were never able
to ascertain her whereabouts.

[Ban] Wait a minute.

Isn't that the little country that was
destroyed by barbarians 20 years ago?

That's right.
And I'm sure all of that was my fault.

I cause nothing but sorrow.

I'm sure Rosa resents me for it.

Come on, now. You don't know that.

-[Merlin] Well…
-[Diane gasping]

Then maybe it's time
that you go and ask her for yourself.

[Escanor gasping]

[Escanor] Wait.
Lady Merlin, you know where Rosa is?

I am a wizard, remember?

I can easily track down her whereabouts.

The information Gowther got out of you
should be all I need to do so.

[Escanor gasping]

Uh, on second thought, forget it.

I'm not exactly sure
what I would say to her.

Her life was nothing
but trouble because of me.

She… she'd probably be happier

if I were dead.

-[Ban] Dammit!
-[Diane] Easy, Ban!

Quit feeling sorry
for yourself, you whiner!

You wanna die right this second?

And what would be the point in that?

Huh?

[Diane gasping]

[Escanor coughing]

Escanor,

at high noon tomorrow,
let's have a match together.

[Escanor] Uh…

[dramatic music playing]

[Meliodas] If I win,
you join the Seven Deadly Sins.

If you win, you can leave
and do whatever you want.

Impressive.

Even at noon, I'm surprised
that his magic can be this strong.

Creature that can die so easily,

I envy your fragile mortality.

[Escanor efforting]

[Escanor grunting]

[Escanor gasping]

If you truly want to end your life,

I can make that happen.

[Escanor] It hurts.

You feel pain? It hurts?

That's because you're alive and breathing.

You're able to do so
because Rosa protected you.

[Escanor coughing]

[Escanor] Rosa…

Understand what I'm saying.

Your life isn't yours and yours alone.

How dare you think
your life isn't worth living

or that you can let go of it so easily.

That's conceited.

I see now.

I'm sorry.

I still want to live.

[Meliodas chuckling]

From this point on,

if you're ever in a situation
where you can't control yourself,

I'll always be there to take you on.

This may be bold of me to ask
after such a defeat,

but, if I may,

I would like you to hear my one wish.

[emotional music playing]

[Escanor gasping]

[Escanor] Wow.

I didn't know
such a place existed in Britannia?

[Rosa] It's good
to see you, Master Escanor.

[Escanor gasping]

[Escanor] Th-that voice…

Is it you, Rosa?

[Rosa] Please turn around.

Let me see your face.

I can't.

If you see me now, you'll be disappointed.

But that's not why I'm here.

I didn't come all this way
just to say that.

I wanted to thank you
for protecting me all those years ago.

I'm going to live this life you saved,
and cherish all my days to the fullest.

No matter how awkward or lonely I am.

No matter what problems I face.

I'll do right by you, Rosa.

[Escanor gasping]

[Rosa] Of course, you will.
You've always done right by me.

And from what I've seen recently,

you're not alone anymore.

[Escanor gasping]

Uh-huh.

I have to admit, Rosa.

You haven't changed a bit
in all the years we've been apart.

And guess what?

There's this lady
that looks just like you.

[Rosa] Yes. I know.

You may not realize it,

but I've been watching over you
this whole time.

[Escanor] There have been so many
other people who've been kind to me.

There's the Captain,
who looks like a child,

but he's really strong.

And then the Giant girl.

And the sneaky thief
that's a little bit scary.

[Meliodas] The capital of the dead

that your memories
of the departed lead you to?

Are you being serious?

[Meliodas chuckling]

If you want to try visiting,

I could render you half-dead
the same way I did for Escanor.

Thanks, but nah.

I'll give that a pass.

[Escanor] Hey, Rosa…

I promise you…

[dramatic music playing]

[Escanor] …this life I almost abandoned,

the one you saved,

I'm going to devote it
to my precious friends.

What we're seeing,
that's not the magic of Sunshine.

Huh?

[Meliodas] Escanor is converting
all of his own life energy into magic

to keep his power level full.

I think he's…

he's planning on burning up
the remainder of his life!
