Original subtitles

Under Grand Master Hendrickson's orders, Elizabeth has been abducted.

To bring her back, Meliodas and the rest infiltrate the capital, Liones.

What is Arthur Pendragon, king of Camelot, after?

And now, two Holy Knights make a stand in Diane's hour of peril!

Despite your stature as Holy Knights of Liones,

you're defending this heinous criminal

and raising your swords against me?

A human who would've been sacrificed for the greater good...

She gave up her body to save him!

How could I let her die?

Hey, Guila!

Stop joking around. Come back!

Little Guila, I thought you wanted to know the real reason your father went missing?

Yes. But I think I know the answer.

If she hadn't protected him, my little brother...

would've died at your hands!

Is that so?

Apparently, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree!

Our mission as Holy Knights

is to condemn evil and set an example for the people, nothing more.

Return here at once.

Do so, and I'll sweep this foolishness under the rug.

Now, then...

You fools!

This is a tale of ancient times,

when the human and non-human worlds had not yet split.

Not content with just Liones,

nations with Holy Knights have extended their reach

across all of Britannia!

Magic is power...

and it is this power

that can sway an entire country's fortunes.

Of all these knights,

one group is renowned throughout Britannia.

Their name is...

EPISODE 18 EVEN IF IT COSTS ME MY LIFE

Platinum-ranked Holy Knight.

What are our odds of winning this hopeless struggle?

With our magical powers, those two behind us could get hurt as well.

Don't come out.

And that's not all.

We're against a Grand Master, a cardinal,

and a Diamond-ranked Holy Knight, the next in rank.

Our odds of winning are zero.

Not by a long shot!

Rising Tornado!

A highly-condensed tornado whose range is focused to the utmost!

Guila! Pour every last drop of your magical powers into my tornado!

Stop it, Guila! I'm your comrade, dammit!

Forgive me, Jericho.

But I have no other option!

Shot Bomb!

Combined Skill, Bomb Cyclone!

Keep firing until our magical powers are depleted!

I don't want to die!

The Seven Deadly Sins have come to wipe us out!

A tremendous outpouring of magical power.

But it's not Diane.

Seems like something has begun.

Elizabeth, looks like this is the underground pigpen!

Let's head aboveground!

Pigpen?

I mean dungeon!

Father!

Big Sister Margaret! Where are you?

Father!

Hey, pipe down! If you shout too loud, the guard will come!

Is that you, Elizabeth?

Elizabeth... is it you?

Big Sister Margaret...

Don't burn out, Guila!

Don't you, either!

How long will you be doing that?

I knew it, you're the one guy we couldn't keep in check.

ENCHANT "RESIST FIRE," "RESIST WIND"

For a jerry-built combo, you guys came real close!

But it's just a stopgap.

This is all the damage I can cause at full magical power?

He's totally unscathed!

Silken Skewer!

-Who's that? -Who's that?

Who do you think?

Big Sister! Is that you, Big Sister Margaret?

Sister... Are you well?

I'm fine.

What about you?

Both Father and I have been worried about you.

I'm...

You don't have to worry about me. But...

I'm sorry. Because of me...

Because of me, Veronica is...

Elizabeth, don't blame yourself so much. All right?

She certainly wouldn't want you to, after all.

Because she really cares for you deeply.

I know it's strange, but--

Big Sister Margaret, we'll talk later. Let's escape this place together!

Are you sisters discussing a prison break?

You look so innocent,

but just what method did you use to break out?

Let my sister out of there now!

You're totally mistaken about that.

Lady Margaret went into that cell of her own volition.

Do you really think I'd believe such a lie?

If you don't, then fine by me.

Now, then, Lady Elizabeth,

let me take you somewhere safer than this--

Who's that?

Ultra-Knockout Blow, Forget Meal!

A forbidden technique, where I conceal my presence

and attack my target's blind spot!

Anyway, you've been totally ignoring me all this time!

I'll be the one to take you on first!

Hawk...

A talking... pig?

A pig?

Out of my sight!

Elizabeth? Where are you?

Elizabeth! I'm right here, okay?

So annoying...

There's nothing I despise more than pigs!

Where on earth did he wander in from?

Elizabeth?

She fainted, that's all.

Oh, almost forgot!

Just as your sweet little sister asked, I'll open that door for you.

Now then, go wherever your heart desires!

That is, if you're prepared to abandon him.

Wh-who in the world are you?

A goat symbol! Don't tell me...

I'm afraid so.

The Seven Deadly Sins' Gowther the Goat Sin is here.

That's him?

He looks nothing like his wanted poster.

Gowther...

For fighting to protect Diane, I thank you, Guila.

I've understood the situation from the last few minutes

from yours and Dreyfus' memories.

Dreyfus, I'm going all-out to defeat you.

Well, it's...

Piercing Stab!

Silken Skewer!

It's mutual, you know!

Your magical power which eats away at the mind...

In a way, it should be feared the most of all the Seven Deadly Sins.

So, all I have to do is stop you before you activate your power!

You ramble on too long!

Impossible! I pierced his body...

How can he be moving?

Don't overthink it.

What's going on? It's a nightmare...

What, did you have a nightmare?

That's your punishment for dozing off here in the middle of the day, I bet!

Hendrickson?

Is that you?

Who else do I look like?

Get a hold of yourself, Dreyfus.

Hey, about what the King said yesterday... What did you think?

What the King said?

About being able to avoid the Holy War of the ancient prophesy...

True,

His Majesty's Vision is a magical power that can see the future.

But if the Holy War is truly avoidable...

then is there any point in us Holy Knights existing?

It made me think...

Even if there are no battles,

the threat of monsters and barbarians isn't going to go away.

No matter the size of the threat,

we Holy Knights are needed here to protect the Kingdom.

If push comes to shove, we should just cause the Holy War ourselves!

Father! Welcome home!

I'm back, Griamore!

Today, I sparred with Gil ten times, and I beat him three times!

I see. You've gotten really good!

Someday, I want to become a Holy Knight, too!

I know you can!

-Just like me-- -Like Uncle Zaratras!

Everybody says that Gil's dad is stronger than my dad.

Is that true?

Well, I don't know.

Since I've never gone all-out against my brother.

"I'm the stronger one!"

Anna? What did you just...

Can't beat a drink after training!

Still, that Zaratras has some mad skills!

I don't feel like I have a chance.

You're being modest.

You Seven Deadly Sins are the only ones in the Kingdom

capable of going toe-to-toe with Zaratras.

Even Dreyfus has never beaten him, even once!

So you say,

but if you look at just the sword skills, Dreyfus, I think yours top Zaratras'.

Do you really think so, Meliodas?

I wouldn't lie to you.

That's great!

If I had to say, all you lack is experience and drive, maybe?

That's right. I'm not inferior to him.

Someday I will surpass him and become Grand Master!

Hey, but on second thought, that won't happen.

You've lost that chance.

-Chance? -Right, Zaratras?

B-Brother...

Stop it! I never... I never...

I never wanted to do such a thing...

I didn't mean to kill you!

I swear it's true!

You've got to believe me, Zaratras!

Atone for your sins.

I'm sorry...

Sorry...

I'm sorry...

Nightmare Teller.

Humans are so fragile.

Dreyfus, I'm leaving now,

but you're never going to awaken from your nightmare.

Who are you?

Wh-what's going on?

Gowther touched the Grand Master

at the same time as his Piercing Stab,

and they've both been frozen on the spot.

Gowther...

Sorry to disappoint you, Gowther! Looks like I'm the one who made it back!

And I shall never see you again!

-Lord Dreyfus! -Grand Master...

I don't believe it.

Looks like I sustained more damage than I thought.

-I owe you one, Gilthunder. -Oh, no.

Sir Helbram, I'm leaving the rest of the cleanup to you.

As you wish!

Seriously, appearing with a bang only to get taken out right away...

Is that even possible?

No... He's worthy of being a Deadly Sin.

Thanks to him, even if it's only temporary,

we now only have to face Sir Helbram.

"Now, the battle just got easier..." Is that what you're thinking?

Now that it's not a melee...

I can do whatever I want. Did you forget?

Call of Inferno!

This black fog...

The magical power of Death!

Are you insane?

What if there were stragglers nearby!

Sane or insane, who really cares which I am?

Either way, you're going to go down writhing--

No way am I going to let anyone die!

Diane...

Howzer... Take this boy and run!

Zeal...

Don't give me that! There you go again. Always thinking of others...

How about thinking about yourself for once?

Pesky giant, aren't you?

Diane!

Bye-bye!

Stop it...

Knock it off!

Well, well, if it isn't the Fairy King?

That's...

The Sin of Sloth... King the Grizzly Sin!

Who did this?

Who did such a terrible thing to Diane?

Was it you?

Was it you?

It wasn't them...

Those two protected me.

So, please don't blame them.

You call that protecting her? You didn't protect her at all!

Don't you mess with me! Apologize!

Hey... hey!

Why? Why?

Why is it that I... I can never... ever...

protect the ones I love?

You always came late. No, you were always too late.

Like 20 years ago, when the Fairy King's Forest vanished.

Or like that time 700 years ago, and today as well.

Thanks to you, the giant girl will die!

Shut up!

Did he get him?

ENCHANT HARD PROTECTION

Say your prayers.

Hey, you're more motivated today than at Vaizel, huh?

Go back to your original form.

You know you can't release your true magical powers like that.

Helbram!

A Fairy?

Is that... Sir Helbram?

That day at Vaizel, I never dreamed it was you.

Thanks to that dingy helmet of yours...

Shut up!

I admit it's one dirty helmet.

But I couldn't bear to discard it.

This helmet serves as a warning to myself.

I don't care about that!

What have you been so grumpy about all this time?

Are you that dejected about Miss Big & Sweet over there?

But she's just one of your motley crew of ragtag knights, isn't she?

I'm not asking you to understand

how important she is to me!

In that case, why don't you just stick her in a box?

Oh, wait, you can't.

You know it as well as I do, don't you? The pain of losing a loved one!

Then do you understand the pain of losing a loved one

before your very eyes?

Hey, nice save!

All right, next one!

Don't tell me that's your idea of an attack?

You sure can bounce, Fairy King!

Oh, please.

You can't take me out with that Chastiefol of yours!

A no-good Fairy King like you

can't master a Chastiefol made from the Holy Tree!

Why don't you just feast your eyes

on the sight of your beloved giant being ripped apart?

Eat that, you monster tree!

Wow! That was amazing, Howzer!

Did they regenerate?

Now then, Fairy King,

Burn the image of your loved one's death

onto your eyelids, your mind's eye, and your soul!

Do you want to see your cherished giant pulverized into ground beef?

Then why not get a closer look?

-Captain... -Yeah.

As Diane and Gowther's magical powers began to fade,

I started sensing King's magical powers rising to unbelievable levels!

Impossible!

The attack had no effect at all?

From the start, did you abandon both your attacks on me, and your own defense,

so you could pour all your magical powers into saving that giant who refuses to die?

Helbram...

Seven hundred years ago, that promise I made with you...

Let me fulfill it now.

Don't go, Brother!

How are we supposed to protect the forest without you?

I can't just leave Helbram like that!

It's just for a little while. Please, Elaine!

Come back, Brother!

You guys!

Where's Helbram?
