"All right, this looks so good" She puts the fork, with a piece of meat on, into her mouth. Her whole body tenses.
"What do ya think?" Meliodas asks, leaning on the counter "Awful isn't it"
"Yes"
"Knew it was," Hawk, Meliodas and Y/N say in unison. Elizabeth starts crying.
"Wow, great going Meliodas. Your food made her cry" Y/N says, teasingly.
"No" Y/N looks at her "It's delicious. More than I can say" She wipes her tears. Y/N and Hawk look at each other confused.
"So...What exactly were you doing walking around in that old armour?"
"I'm on a personal quest to find the Eight Deadly Sin" Y/N and Meliodas share a quick look.
"Why would you do that?" Hawk asks "No one has any idea if those guys are still alive or not, and they're serious villains" They are cut off by a loud knocking at the door. Elizabeth jumps and looks around. Meliodas and Y/N turn their look to the door.
"Open up!" A voice orders "The villages told us who's in there" The man stops knocking "We, are the order of the Beard of the Mountain Cat. Serving under the holy knights from the foot of the mountain" He says "Wandering rust knight, member of the Eight Deadly Sins, come out! and do so peacefully"
"What's the matter with everyone today," Meliodas asks.
"Meh," Y/N says, finishing her booze.
"Holy knights," Elizabeth says.
"I don't think they're coming out," One of the holy knights say.
"This is kinda strange. When did somebody put a tavern on top of this hill?" Another Holy knight says.
"You know, now that you mention it, I don't remember seeing this place three days ago"
"On your guard, cause we're about to go up against a holy knight who answered directly to the king 10 years ago," The leader says.
"Come on, there's nothing to worry about, Allioni. I'm sure he's old by now"
"That's right. He won't be a match to fighters like us, trained by Sir Twigo himself"
"How many times have I told you, don't underestimate them. When the uprising happened in Liones, dozen of holy knights were butchered in an instant!"
"Yeah, about that..."
"What is it?"
"Well, I kinda wonder if things were exaggerated a little bit"
"And? What are you trying to say" Allioni asks?
"Well, everybody says that one holy knight is as powerful as 100 ordinary soldiers. So dozens of them murdered"
"Nah"
"I saw their bodies with my own eyes!"
"Everyone, calm down. For now, just stand back, Allioni" A small Holy knight says "I think we can handle one old man" He turns to the door "Hey! Get out here" Meliodas then walks out, Y/N by his side in her wolf form, he holds her red collar.
"Yeah? What's up"
"Who are you, little kid?" Allioni asks.
"Well, I'm the owner of this place. And this is my friend" Meliodas says, gesturing to Y/N. Y/N growls at the knights and one of the tall ones jump slightly "Don't worry, she only attacks command"
"The wandering rust knight is here. Send him out" Meliodas sighs and turns around.
"Better come out"
"Who is calling for me," Hawk says, walking towards them, dressed in armour "I'm Sir Hawk, the rusty knight" Hawk walks outside to stand on the other side of Meliodas.
"So this pig is one of the Eight Deadly Sins?"
"Well, of course, it's not"
"How about a little respect. I'm the captain of the order of Scraps Disposal!"
"There is no such order"
"If this pig is what you after, you can grill him if you want"
"Give it a rest will ya'!"
"You little punk" Allioni grabs Meliodas by the collar of his shirt and pulls him up. Y/N growls and snarls at him "Making fun of knights like this" Y/N continue to growl at him "And shut your mutt up!" Meliodas holds out his hand and Y/N stops. Elizabeth looks around the corner of the tavern before running off into the forest. However, one of the Holy knights spots her.
"Allioni! Look, a girl ran out the back!" Allioni drops Meliodas, who is caught by Y/N on her back.
"What! We have to inform Sir Twigo. She must be the wandering rust knight. Get her!" All the holy knights run to the forest after Elizabeth.
"Yes sir!"
"Hold it right there" Meliodas, Y/N and Hawk look to where the Holy knights ran off to.
"Oh no"
