Chapter Text
After the event with Merlin, Meliodas asked Elizabeth to wait for him outside the room, as the blond was going to have a stern little talk with the sin of gluttony.
(Meliodas): Have you gone mad?! What if she got hurt.... Or worse...
(Merlin): Calm down, Captain.... But it seems that this reincarnation has developed some interesting defensive magic
(Meliodas): That's what it looks like... But I've never seen that symbol
(Merlin): Neither have I... Probably a new magic that we don't know about... But anything different with her and her magic, I want any information... And we also have to see if she has total control over this magic, imagine her accidentally attacking her sisters or even the king because she thinks it's a threat...
(Meliodas): Right... But I'm going to take Elizabeth to her chambers and we'll have a very serious talk!
(Merlin): Right! (Merlin): Right! And I have a few things to say to you too
(Meliodas): Right then.... I'll tell Bartra that you need more time to analyze Elizabeth's situation.
Then the blond man left the room, running into Elizabeth who was still waiting anxiously for him.
(Meliodas): Did I take too long, Ellie?
(Elizabeth): Not long... What were you talking about? Was it about me?
(Meliodas): It was about another mission we're going to do.
(Elizabeth): I see... But you're going on another mission?
(Meliodas): Yes ... But it's just a reconnaissance mission *tell a lie*
“(Cyn): He's lying... And he's trying to answer me mentally... So as not to show any suspicion”
Elizabeth was slightly startled by Cyn's words in her mind, but was saddened to learn that Meliodas was lying to her, but if he is lying to her, there must be a reason.
“(Elizabeth): Why is he lying?”
“(Cyn): They're probably scared of your great power, which is me... But relax... They're just worried about something they don't know about my friend.”
Elizabeth was thinking about Cyn's speech, and Meliodas realized that the little girl was feeling strange and a little tense after he lied to her.
(Meliodas): Did something happen, Ellie?
(Elizabeth): Oh nothing happened Meli
Meliodas took Elizabeth's hand, and soon they were walking through the corridors. The demon was going to take the princess to her room and stay with her for a while to make sure nothing was wrong after the incident with Merlin.
It seemed that Princess Elizabeth's magic had something to do with self-defense - little did she know that it was beyond her comprehension .... Chuckle - as he instantly threw the sorceress because he thought she was a threat.
He was worried about his beloved Elizabeth.
...
Once again, Elizabeth was in her subconscious, having slept after an exhausting and strange day.
The room that was her subconscious was strangely comforting and nostalgic, but there was also a bad feeling about being there.
(Cyn): oh I see you're back to talk
Cyn was playing with a doll, the two dolls in her hand were hitting each other violently, while she was lying on her stomach and swinging her legs, as a child would.
(Elizabeth): oh yes! You told me you were going to explain more about my magic
Then Cyn teleports behind Elizabeth, who is startled by the presence of the worker drone.
(Cyn): it is .... What exactly do you want to know? How do I work or how should you use me? What am I?
(Elizabeth): How exactly do you work?
(Cyn): The AbsoluteSolver has the ability to do extraordinary things, such as telekinesis, and can be used to move things without touching them directly, as well as doing so when in control of a host.
(Elizabeth): What's a host?
(Cyn): Host is a numerical code related to any device connected or not to the Internet, which can analyze its data... And with the solver you can modify the data given to you like this
Cyn uses her Solver to telekinetically bring up a doll that was lying on the floor. A series of numbers appear around the doll along with the solver symbol, only modified, the harmless toy is shaped into an extremely sharp knife.
Elizabeth stares in amazement.
(Cyn): We also have other abilities, such as teleportation, creating illusions, regeneration, a certain invisibility, creating force fields, creating and multiplying and transmuting...but that happens too
Cyn shows that the solver symbol changed several times.
(Cyn): Each change in the symbol is a function... The one I showed you just now was editing, being able to multiply and create....
(Elizabeth): That's fascinating, Cyn! They're like ancient runes that Merlin made on the ground when she analyzed me, right?
(Cyn): To make it easier for you to understand, it's almost like this....
(Elizabeth): So you're going to teach me how to use it? But why is it called AbsoluteSolver?
(Cyn): Basically it's an absolute solver, and it's capable of doing anything as I've shown you in these examples... And you'll be able to do all that... But there's one small problem
(Elizabeth): What?
(Cyn): The AbsoluteSolver tends to make the host very hungry and makes you feel strangely warm and you need to drink large quantities of...
Cyn thought for a moment, in her previous reincarnation, Liz drank a lot of water, because she sometimes felt hot when she used the solver, so the drone thought she could use water on a human host, because three thousand years ago, in their first life, Cyn and Elizabeth drank oil or blood to satisfy their hunger and escape overheating.
(Cyn): Water... A lot of water and eating plenty of vegetables for their development... but it's good to eat meat, a lot of meat
Cyn decided to change the subject, because even though she was sometimes clueless, she had to soften her words for the child Elizabeth.
(Elizabeth): Right! And when do I start using AbsoluteSolver?
The zombie drone seemed to think of a suitable response for Elizabeth.
(Cyn): At any moment... But you'll have to train safely and in hiding
(Elizabeth): Why hidden?
(Cyn): To show him in the future... “Meli” how strong you are using your magic again.... To surprise him! I'm sure he'll be very happy for you!
Cyn was obviously lying, she didn't want interference from that idiot demon who had ruined Elizabeth's life so far, so she would leave Elizabeth strong so she could end the curse herself.
(Elizabeth): Right! When you wake up, I'll train hard!
(Cyn): giggle hehehe... I'm sure you will... But I hope you train in moderation
Cyn gave Elizabeth a gentle smile, she missed these quieter moments.
...
It was late at night, Meliodas was in Merlin's laboratory, which was a little way from the castle and the isolated area of the kingdom, because the brunette used very dangerous utensils in her experiments.
(Merlin): Then we'll continue with the previous conversation, won't we?
(Meliodas): Yes... You said you were able to pick up some fragmented memories that seemed almost erased, were you able to see anything?
(Merlin): No... I'm still working on it, I don't know if it's the curse that caused it or Elizabeth's unknown magic...
(Meliodas): Have you seen that symbol anywhere?
(Merlin): In the three thousand years I've been here, I've never seen anything like it... And you said you don't know about her... I should have analyzed her magical aura to see if everything was in order before entering her mind...
(Meliodas): I see...
(Merlin): Do you think it might be something involving the supreme deity?
(Meliodas): No... That woman would never do that, she would never give Elizabeth something that could break the curse... All that wretch did was curse her own daughter...
(Merlin): I see... The symbol was the same color as her left eye... It's getting weirder and weirder... I want you to keep an eye on her, any change or sign of danger immediately bring her to me
(Meliodas): right
(Merlin): By the way, I want you to bring her tomorrow, I want to do a more precise analysis of her power and magic level than I did today, if I get anything out of her, if something happens like today, I want you to take care of her.
(Meliodas): I hope you don't do anything crazy that could awaken her memories.
(Merlin): I would never make such a mistake
Silence fell over the two sins, who were thinking about Elizabeth's situation.
That situation was complicated, Merlin had already interacted with legendary beings who led two opposing clans during the Holy War, and almost died deceiving both of them, and she didn't even know what was happening to Elizabeth, that situation was too new.
(Meliodas): Shit... Do you think the nightmares might come back?
(Merlin): I don't know, I didn't even have a proper time to analyze it before I was thrown, my only action was to pick up the memories...
Merlin summoned her sacred treasure, where she had placed Elizabeth's memories in the floating sphere, to make it easier to analyze, it was difficult, but Merlin was persistent to find out what was wrong.
(Merlin): How strange...
(Meliodas): Have you found anything?
(Merlin): Not exactly, the most erased memories have a series of repeated numbers... They're always the same
(Meliodas): What numbers?
(Merlin): They're always between 0 and 1... And I also found a sentence at the end here
(Meliodas): A sentence? What do you mean, a sentence?
(Merlin): “AbsoluteSolver access blocked by administrator ‘CYN’... Checking Backups”... That's intriguing... I'll have to take a closer look, if I can unblock the access of this “AbsoluteSolver” that is being controlled by this “administrator” I'm sure I can see these memories
(Meliodas): That doesn't make sense... AbsoluteSolver? CYN administrator? And what the hell is a backup?
(Merlin): I don't know either Captain, but I'll find out... I'll let you know... Don't forget, I'll want the princess to be there again for a more precise analysis...
(Meliodas): Right...
Meliodas was worried sick about Elizabeth, he would have to go back to the castle to see if his beloved was sleeping gently and without any nightmares.
...
Another day again, Meliodas and Elizabeth walked through the corridors of the castle to go to Merlin's room, for the sin of gluttony would make a more precise analysis of the child.
Elizabeth practiced a little for the first time with her AbsoluteSolver, it was easy to use, she just practiced levitating small objects, Cyn clapped her hands in her subconscious, congratulating the third princess on her proficiency in using the solver.
(Meliodas): Eager?
Meliodas felt Elizabeth's small hand was sweaty on his palm, and also her body temperature was a little feverish.
(Elizabeth): A little... If something like yesterday happens?
(Meliodas): I don't think it can happen... But if something like this happens, I promise I'll protect you... It's a promise... By the way, are you a bit feverish? Are you all right?
(Elizabeth): I'm fine Meli... We're here
They were in front of the big door again, Elizabeth was feverish from the sun, and she didn't have a proper time to drink water, since Meliodas got in her way just as she was about to go to the castle kitchen to get a jug of water. Cyn wasn't too worried, as the child's body heat wasn't serious, and she would have to wait until then to quench her thirst.
As they entered Merlin's room, the sin of gluttony was floating in the air, waiting for them, while Aldan floated beside him.
(Merlin): I'm glad you're here again princess... Yesterday we didn't have much time to analyze your situation... but I hope today will be different... Could you do me a favor... And place your hand on my sacred treasure?
So Elizabeth did, timidly placing her palm around the orb, feeling the cold orb on her hot, sweaty hand give her a strangely comfortable little thermal shock.
The orb immediately blurred with the child's touch, and in a few seconds, various fragments of red, white and purple colors passed between the bright yellow of Elizabeth's magical aura, and soon these three sequences of colors turned yellow. And then the yellow color made a strange gradient with the light magenta, in the middle of these two colors there were codes of 0 and 1 consecutively, and soon the two colors come together, but the predominant one was yellow and soon it forms the symbol of the Solver.
And soon everything was back to normal, Meliodas was shocked to see that symbol again, but a little relieved that something horrible hadn't happened.
(Elizabeth): Was that supposed to happen?
(Merlin): Well, colors vary for everyone and so does the way their magic reacts... If you like, the captain can demonstrate a perfect example of this, right?
Elizabeth withdrew her hand from the orb and stepped back a few paces, waiting for Meliodas to do the same so she could see if Merlin was really telling the truth.
Since after Cyn had informed her that Meliodas had lied to her, the girl had become a little more suspicious.
Meliodas soon stepped forward, without hesitation he stretched out his arm and placed his palm on the magical sphere, the same time it happened to Elizabeth, but with the blond there was a big change, several fragments of dark purple energy, it was as dark as pitch black, which was Meliodas' demonic energy.
“(Cyn): I told you... Demon!”
“(Elizabeth): What do you mean demon?”
“(Cyn): You're too young to have this conversation yet, but let's just say that “Meli” isn't a human.... and you'll understand what I'm saying one day”
Elizabeth thought about Cyn's words, how could her Meli not be human?
Elizabeth hated it when Cyn was vague with her.
Meliodas wasn't too worried, as this was supposed to be normal, since his magic was demonic.
(Meliodas): Have you seen Ellie? You acted differently to me too!
(Elizabeth): I see! That was amazing Meli!
(Meliodas): hehehe So Merlin, what's your verdict on Elizabeth's magic?
The blond asked anxiously, while the woman in front of him assumed her usual thoughtful pose.
(Merlin): It seems that the princess has a magic that is beyond my comprehension... Which is possibly quite powerful
Elizabeth smiled happily when she heard this from the magician, her three upper canines giving Merlin a little fear, but the short-haired woman ignored it, while the demon couldn't help but let his eyes widen in response to the talk of the sin of gluttony. The blond wanted Merlin to shut up before she did something stupid and awakened Elizabeth's memory, but Merlin's one serious look made him keep quiet about the situation.
(Merlin): I don't know exactly how your magic works, Princess Elizabeth, but I can guess that it might be self-defense.
Merlin gave the wrong hypothesis, she hardly knew the exact functions of AbsoluteSolver's corrupted code.
(Merlin): But that makes your magic pretty strong princess! I'm sure that one day you'll even be able to fight against my magic
Cyn doubted it a little, since Merlin's magic was infinity, basically infinity, but AbsoluteSolver's was exponential emptiness.
Before Merlin made a proposal to Elizabeth that he would teach her magic, so that he could study what was happening to Elizabeth and about this AbsoluteSolver. A soft knock on the door drew everyone's attention; it was one of the castle maids.
(Maid): Lord and Lady Sin! The king has asked Princess Elizabeth to be present for lunch
Elizabeth grimaced, she didn't like that, she wanted to stay longer to find out more about what Merlin was going to say about her.
Cyn thanked the meddlesome human, as she couldn't stand the situation any longer, and she didn't want to be found out or for Merlin to find out about Solver.
Meliodas laughed a little at Elizabeth's grimace, and ruffled the child's hair, messing up her big hair tie, which made her complain about the blond's action.
(Meliodas): You can go, Ellie! Your father is waiting for you... I'll meet you later!
The girl huffed in annoyance, but ignored it and pulled her hair tie over her head and went to the castle maid.
(Elizabeth): Bye Meli! Bye Merlin!
The little black-haired girl waved to them both and then left the room.
(Meliodas): Are you mad or are you making yourself up?
(Merlin): If you're implying that I almost awakened Elizabeth's memories, you offend me Captain... You know I'm very careful about that! But to change the subject... When the princess put her hand on Aldan to see his magic, his power level was unknown.... But the colors caught my eye
Meliodas became a little tense, he turned his mind to that symbol, the blond felt his worry grow inside him, making his 7 hearts beat faster because of anxiety.
(Meliodas): That symbol worries me... Is that the AbsoluteSolver you saw yesterday?
(Merlin): At best, certainly...
(Meliodas): Could it be something to do with the curse?
(Merlin): No... If it were, we'd have noticed it before... Your curses can manipulate and control your souls, but they can't change them. The curse can control how you die or when, but changing the essence of the soul? That seems impossible, especially as beings like the supreme deity and the demon king.
(Meliodas): I understand... If that were the case, they would have controlled us to hate each other... Just thinking about it makes my mouth taste bitter... Well, at least that yellow magic is expected
(Merlin): Of course not! Light magenta was what was expected
(Meliodas): What do you mean?
(Merlin): Elizabeth's magic was light magenta, not yellow, remember? And those other colors that appeared before it turned yellow also caught my eye
Meliodas' eyes widened, he felt like an idiot for having forgotten that, Elizabeth's Arcs had always been light magenta, but you couldn't see the color of her magic because Elizabeth's goddess magic was often an illuminescent hue.
(Meliodas): The white, purple and red, right?
(Merlin): Yes... I didn't sense any strange presence in those colors... But it's the yellow that worries me a bit
(Meliodas): The white would make sense if it's a part of your goddess magic and the purple something that involves demonic magic, probably affected by my presence, but it wouldn't make sense because of the red color
(Merlin): Or it could be a new type of magic, it's been a while since we've done these tests with Elizabeth since the fourteenth Elizabeth.
That event was kind of Cyn's fault.
Meliodas was worried, very worried, his mind was spinning, he felt like his brain was going to explode inside his skull and the remains were going to dirty the whole room, because it was hurting from the new information and thoughts that were swirling around inside him. He noticed that Elizabeth acted strangely and differently, and that she also looked very ugly at Dreyfus and Hendrickson, and that she always stood behind Meliodas when they were in the presence of the two holy knights.
But she was also quite troublesome with children sometimes, but when that happened her eyes were yellow.
She could find him easily, she was always waiting for him in front of the gate, even though she hadn't sent any message of his early arrival, but at those times, her two eyes were blue, until the left one turned yellow again.
Meliodas felt like an idiot for not noticing, perhaps he wanted to ignore it so that his memories wouldn't be awakened, since he was very afraid that it would happen again.
(Meliodas): Well... It doesn't matter where it came from, but we have to know correctly what it is... Elizabeth needs to learn that! If not....
(Merlin): Calm down Captain... I'll teach Elizabeth and I'll study this strange phenomenon
(Meliodas): Thank you Merlin... If it happens again... I can't stand it any longer
Meliodas spoke with a broken voice, almost crying, he couldn't stand it any longer - especially Cyn couldn't stand it, it was Meliodas and the current situation - the blond was almost crying.
And with that, Merlin set his mind to teaching Elizabeth how to use her abilities.
At first Elizabeth didn't want to, since she was training alone with Cyn and it was supposed to be a surprise, but the little robot worker allowed Elizabeth to do the training, because she knew it wouldn't last and Merlin would give up, since the AbsoluteSolver didn't have much ability to re-create magic the way the sorceress wanted the princess to.
But the AbsoluteSolver with those three thousand years could re-create magic in a different way, by analyzing all the magic around it and modifying its code, and being able to recreate certain abilities compatible with the solver.
And to nullify more dangerous abilities, such as those involving fire and electricity, since they were spells that could easily cancel out the solver, because of the heat and the magnetic field.
With Merlin's lessons, Elizabeth was failing miserably, which frustrated the girl too, but Cyn convinced her that it was a good thing, as it would give them a big surprise that she could do more, as a break from expectation.
It was easy to manipulate Elizabeth, child.
Merlin found the current situation strange, as it seemed that Elizabeth's abilities were not capable of shaping the spells she was teaching, and seeing that Elizabeth was getting frustrated, and afraid of something happening, she decided to stop the lessons and asked Meliodas to be more alert with Elizabeth, and any kind of change was to bring the girl to her.
Merlin wasn't getting it, she did a little analysis on AbsoluteSolver, she swore it was magic involving summoning circles, but it didn't seem to solve anything.
It was frustrating for both sides.
But Meliodas and Merlin's fear was persistent at the thought of Elizabeth's magic getting out of control, so they were both very focused on this delicate matter.
But as said, Elizabeth couldn't manifest her magic, of course never in the presence of the two sins.
Elizabeth felt terrible about lying to them, but Cyn still affirmed in her mind that she was doing something good.
And in order not to make Elizabeth sad and frustrated with her situation, she placed a Keybug project in Elizabeth's subconscious. It is similar to a cockroach and can communicate via text balloons that are updated live. Unlike the normal robot cockroaches seen throughout Elizabeth and Cyn's past lives, Keybug is much larger, with a golden hue and green lights.
So create something that could distract Elizabeth, and leave Merlin alone would be something advantageous for the zombie worker robot.
And also she wanted to test something on the Keybug, if she helped Elizabeth create this little robot, she wanted to see if Merlin would be able to analyze it, if not, it would be good and she could continue with the plan of rebuilding the dismantling drones.
And as the seven sins were on a mission of recognition, and then out of Elizabeth’s field of vision, which was great.
Stealing some pieces of armor and some ores that were under the castle, she managed to go to the mine using some secret corridors of the castle, and down there she even found a dead body of a gray demon, obviously who found that was Cyn as it controlled the child’s body, since Elizabeth was afraid to go there, so Cyn went at night when the little girl slept, and controlling her body straight down to collect necessary materials.
Cyn found that dead creature pathetic, but could be used his dead flesh or blood to create a beautiful replacement for the cores of the drones.
It was boring to walk with Elizabeth’s short legs in that spot, since it was difficult to walk around there.
And it was also very boring.
And after a whole week Elizabeth with help of Cyn, built the Keybug.
It was a hard work and fever, but a lot of fever, because Elizabeth wanted to know what would happen if she used for a long time the AbsoluteSolver, even against the will of Cyn, and as the robot would not control the body of the exElliot for a petty revenge for the girl to learn the reason of the danger of warming up the Solver.
Elizabeth felt her body burn inside, her left eye hurt, and she drank a lot of water.
Now she had understood the reason for using AbsoluteSolver carefully.
And that’s how she started to trust Cyn more.
What was good.
For the infected worker drone obviously.
Elizabeth drew more future projects to create, with the help of Cyn, and also she studied better her new little companion.
That every time he saw someone, the shy robot bug hid from the big loop of hair of the black-haired girl.
When Elizabeth heard that Meliodas had returned from his mission, she was extremely excited to show her new creation, and also she would call Merlin.
The platinum-haired robot that was in the child’s subconscious, was exhausted - if that event was possible - because Elizabeth was very excited, and Keybug was happy for his creator is so excited that he projected a hologram of a happy face - :) -.
Elizabeth waited for Meliodas in the palace garden, it was where they always met when he arrived - it was the first thing he did sometimes -, after an hour waiting she realized that he would not come.
"(Cyn): that idiot must be filling his face with beer..."
(Elizabeth): filling her face?
Elizabeth speaks in a whisper only answer Cyn.
"(Cyn): it’s a way of saying that he... is sbalding... I think it’s the most correct way to explain... Chuckle... You can ask any maid or servant to call him..."
Cyn gives the idea to Elizabeth to call the maid to bring Meliodas.
But something came to Elizabeth’s mind.
(Elizabeth): how do you know he’s drinking?
Cyn was quiet and decided not to answer, because she decided to think a little, and with a nasty smile she had a wonderful bad idea.
"(Cyn): let him a little to relax with friends, I’m sure that tomorrow he will be excited enough to see you and the Keybug"
(Elizabeth): Why this change of plans?
"(Cyn): simple... He just arrived, he has to stay with his companions and probably make a report of the reconnaissance mission... Don’t you think it’s fair that he has some time alone or with friends?"
Elizabeth was a little sad about that, Meliodas didn’t want to be with her anymore?
But she could not be so spoiled that way, cyn was correct.
He had to have some time alone for leisure... away from her.
But the thought of Cyn was very petty, for sure Meliodas would get very drunk, and the next day would be with a big hangover, and it would be a petty revenge of the robot worker, she wanted to see if the blonde demon would hold an energetic Elizabeth while talking extremely excited about the Keybug and its project.
It was a bit stupid, but she would delight in the little misfortune that Meliodas would get into with it.
And also she made little by little Elizabeth not to depend on that idiot demon who screwed up her life.
Meliodas
All the sins were in a tavern near the castle, celebrating a reconnaissance mission - it was just an idiotic excuse to splash themselves in beer - everyone was already drunk, which by itself was nothing new.
Ban gargled loudly when he saw his captain - Meliodas - almost fell to the ground - blame Gowther that by some morbid miracle they managed to leave the doll of the armor drunk, that obviously the cause of the drunkenness of the poor doll was due to the sin of greed Meliodas looked at the situation with a smile on his lips and ignored it and continued to drink his beer straight from the bottle at once, because in the middle of that confusion he lost his mug.
Escanor who was in his weak form thanks to the glasses of Merlin that had given him, to contain his powers during the day - and also was at night - he was desperate with situation.
(Escanor): Please my friends, be careful if we are not to be kicked out of this tavern again
It was not a big news that they had been expelled from that place several times because of their dangerous drunken adventures.
And soon Escanor recited again his poem he had written about his companions - more precisely about Merlin - and Ban just laughed while he drank even more the sin of lust to have fun with the chaos that he was generating.
And nobody was paying attention to the poem because they were extremely drunk to pay attention to something, and Merlin gave a run not to stay in that pandemonium that was becoming that tavern, because she had more important things to do.
(Meliodas): Ban this is a bad idea...
The blond told the platinum that it was a bad idea to leave Gowther drunk, but the sin of greed just laughed loud and gave him a funny look.
(Ban): what are you talking about captain? it’s a great idea... it’s the best fun I’ve had in years hahaha
He was talking, while he was lifting the beer bottle and drinking again.
While Diane was with half her torso of her body inside the bar, where it stood near their table, she clapped hands amusing, her cheeks rosy because of the effect of alcohol, while she was on the side of five barrios of beer that she drank. The giant was cheerful, probably because it is with the signs of the beginning of drunkenness.
(Diane): Hahahaha let’s captain! Let’s have fun!
She tried to offer a barrel of beer for the blonde, King was a little bit down for not having received something from Diane, and tried to get attention from the giant, but it was ignored.
All were happy to be together, for it had been a while since everyone was meeting. Since a few months ago, Meliodas was going to the castle, the others thought that because he is the leader of the Seven Capital Sins, and he would have that he is present in the castle to say about the missions and other things, But a month ago the blond was going to the castle with Merlin, which the other sins estranged.
Meliodas ignored the barrel of Diane, and continued to drink his beer from his glass, but no one noticed - only Ban - that the blond seemed alert and worried, soon the platinum put his arm around the neck of the minor, and he laughed happily.
(Ban): Let’s have fun, captain. What’s with the ass face?
The sin of greed provokes his captain, the blond gave a provocative smile as a response.
(Meliodass): Does not fill Ban
Cyn
One day passed, the sun already appeared again, Elizabeth had woken up, the little girl had woken up earlier than normal because of her anxiety to show her new creation for the two sins, Keybug was excited by his creator, he followed her everywhere she walked in his room.
'' (Cyn): Is she excited ?'
Cyn asked with a kind and friendly smile that she always had, Elizbeth could not see the smile of the drone would operate since she could only hear it, only when she was in her subconscious the ex-Elliot could see her old friend, but the girl felt that the zombie drone was smiling, Then she returned with a big friendly smile, showing all her teeth.
(Elizabeth): I’m very excited Cyn! Today I’ll see Meli and Lady Merlin, and they will meet the Keybug! You’re quite excited right, Keybug?
The robo bug responds to an electronic noise, which for Elizabeth was a familiar noise, Cyn just observed the situation she was creating, and she was already imagining how that stupid demon was with a big hangover would withstand a cheery Elizabeth.
(Elizabeth): You’re excited too, right Cyn?
"(Cyn): well... I am! You worked hard with Keybug! I’m very excited... and also would love to see the reaction of others"
"Of the rest" she was just referring to Meliodas with a sore head, Cyn would love to crush Meliodas' skull to have a more satisfying reaction, but that’s what she could have at the moment.
(Elizabeth): That’s incredible! Cyn, and I’m excited too because I’ll know the other sins! This day will be wonderful!
It would certainly be.
Break of time
Meliodas
The blond was lying on the floor of the tavern, all sins - except Merlin and Gowther - were passed out because of the drunkenness they had last night, but the door opened abruptly, causing Meliodas to wake up quickly, even with a great headache,Caused by the hangover, he looked at the apprentice of holy knight, he was panting over the door, which made Meliodas worry about the situation, thinking that something happened.
(Soldier): sorry to bother! You and the sins are needed in the castle, it is the king’s orders!
It was obvious that they would have to have a meeting with Bartra, but the head of the blond was very sore, but they had to have the meeting and describe about the situation of the reconnaissance mission.
The other sins wake up half drunk, and obviously hangover, it was a miracle they were still in the establishment, since they would be expelled at the first opportunity.
Gowther was the only one who was normal, for the effect of alcohol on his body had gone away,' and he did not feel the symptoms of the hangover.
Diane was upset that I left her comfortable position.
Escanor was lying on the ground, and over several bottles of drinks, it is not known what happened to the sin of pride.
King was dying of thirst, because he wanted to hydrate himself to relieve his hangover.
Ban was just a little sore, it was one of the benefits of being immortal, could cure him of things like that.
And Meliodas wanted to die because of the hangover.
But he hardly expected to face an imperative child encouraged by an entity to piss him off.
With that, the sins rose up with disgust,and left the tavern,and went directly to the castle.
They were orders from the king, obvious that they would not disobey.
Cyn
This drone zombie wanted to commit suicide at that moment, or a homicide, because that child who was next to Elizabeth was extremely insulting, the second daughter of Bartra was a child that Cyn would tear her tongue and make her swallow back, and one of the great factors of the drone worker not liking her, was that the girl was cruel to Elizabeth, and did not accept her as a sister, which was quite different from Margareth’s behavior, and Cyn likes the presence of the older child, and she always appeased the situation betweenElliot and Bartra’s second child.
And at the moment Elizabeth was at the table having breakfast with her family, she was next to Veronica, who at the time the child with brown eyes and pink hair looked at ellie with a certain hatred, Cyn knew that her friend was uncomfortable, but had to have a fake friendly relationship not to cause problems, not for now.
The keybug was hidden between the large hair loop that was attop of Elizabeth’s dark hair, He made little noises, and a small green glow came out where it was, since it did not hide properly, and Veronica looked at it with curiosity, Stopping to eat her meal and taking her hand towards the bow of Elizabeth who quickly held the girl’s wrist.
Let’s say that it was Cyn who controlled the child’s arm to prevent any movement of the short-haired girl. Who obviously screamed, for he was a scandalous child.
Coraline who saw the situation was surprised was to help both daughters, Bartra was scared with cry of his daughter.
Veronica tried to move towards the brunette, which was prevented by her mother, Elizabeth was scared, which made her get up from her chair and away from Veronica. She had tears in the corner of her eyes, threatening to run at any moment on her child’s face.
(Veronica): You monster! You hurt my hand!
(Coraline): Veronica Liones! Have respect for your sister!
(Bartra): Exactly young lady! What attitude is that right at the table?
(Veronica): she’s not my sister! She’s not even family! I don’t like her! And she hurt me
Elizabeth began to cry, the words of Veronica made her heart ache for every evil word, Cyn wanted to kill that human girl, but she knew it was not the time, the ex-elliot, ran away. She had lost her hunger during breakfast.
The day that was supposed to be cool, started horrible.
The child heard his parents calling and fighting with Veronica, the brunette went directly to the garden where she found Meliodas, fat tears were running from her round cheeks, her head was sore because of is crying.
"(Cyn): don’t cry Elizabeth..."
(Elizabeth): how not c-cry Cyn... It all started wrong... I didn’t want to hurt my little sister... It was just a reaction... I feel horrible....
"(Cyn): I don’t understand you calling her sister... Being that she doesn’t consider it as a"
Elizabeth started crying even more with the speech of Cyn, which was to help, only made the situation a little worse, well Cyn understood about feelings, but she was not good at putting them in practical, a beautiful drone zombie without sense.
"(Cyn): I mean... That’s what she said... But it doesn’t matter her validation... Thinking.... *says action I was thinking* The important thing is that it has to care with you"
Elizabeth only sniffed so as not to leave her nose running.
(Elizabeth): I didn’t mean to hurt her, I didn’t mean to...
"(Cyn): Relax... just ignore it Elizabeth... it seems that Meliodas has arrived... and brought his companions"
Elizabeth was excited by the speech of the drone worker, both felt the magic of the blonde, but he was not in the place where Elizabeth was crying, but you could feel that he was in the castle.
She removed the keybug from her bow, it formed a holographic screen asking if Elizabeth was okay, she gave a understandable smile to the metallic insect.
(Elizabeth): I’m fine yes key... Thank you for asking... Let’s find the meli.... I’m sure he’ll be very happy with you
The little girl ran out towards the door and kept running through the hallways until she found the blond, the insect came out of her little hands and walked through her body and stood on top of her head and then entered into the black fabric of the large hair loop that was at the top of Elizabeth’s head.
Cyn still hoped that Meliodas was hungover.
Until Elizabeth found the blonde demon, she took advantage and started playing doll.
Meliodas
The blond was with a sore head, he was with a sore head, he was sure that he should not have drunk so much, but obviously he never learns his limits when it comes to get drunk.
Ban was already cured of the hangover, because the immortal had this advantage, Diane threatens to vomit, King was still dizzy, and Gowther was a case apart, and Escanor was trembling on the side of Merlin who had a smug smile.
They were in another building exclusive to them in the castle, because of Diane, and also many knights still do not go with their face, which somehow makes sense, since most are former criminals.
Bartra entered the scene nervous, which made the sin of wrath a little apprehensive, wondering if something happened to Elizabeth.
The king only heard meliodas and others talk about the mission they had, the blonde perceived that the human was nervous ampreensivo, then the sin of gluttony with his smug smile solve ask what had happened.
(Merlin): Your Majesty, is there something troubling you?
(Bartra): *gives a small cough to clear the throat* some family problems
Meliodas got tense with the statement, thinking something happened to Elizabeth in the time he had gone away, especially if those dreams of Elizabeth came back.
(Ban): Problems with the Queen?
Ban provokes the man, who is embarrassed by the provocation of the platinum, which soon became embarrassment irritation.
(Bartra): Of course not, my two younger daughters argued this morning, the older one is grumpy and locked in the room and the younger one hid in some corner
Meliodas flashed his eyebrows with the answer of the older Liones, he was probably talking about Veronica, the girl was stubborn as a rock in the way, and did not like Meliodas, because he is a criminal obviously. But why did she fight with her Elizabeth? he felt guilty for not going to see her as soon as she arrived from the mission, probably she hid in the garden, before he thought too much, a loud bang was heard, he looked towards where the sound came from, it was the little princess, she had opened the door with a kick, what was a little curious, since a 5 year old child would not have such strength to open a door of thick wood and coated, she had a big smile that stretched the muscles of her fat cheeks, she was panting, but I could see that she was crying a while ago, the little child was running happily to the blonde, which drew the attention of the other sins.
(Elizabeth): MELIODAS!!
She jumped and embraced meliodas not to fall, so as a reaction the demon took her in his lap, he was missing that way cheerful and disgraconced of his ellie, that was the cure for his hangover.
(Bartra): Elizabeth! my daughter where were you young lady?
(Elizabeth): Hide you
(Bartra): To where?
(Elizabeth): If I speak to where there will not be more hidden...
She replied as if it were something simple, Ban laughed loud with the princess' answer, Merlin looked amusing, Diane held the laugh, King was surprised by the answer, Escanor looked in shock at the answer, Gowther was just watching and Meliodas wondered how she had such creativity to make excuses like that.
Bartra sighed wearily, as if he had not accustomed to the idiotic answers of his younger daughter, even if it was indeed funny.
The man went to the leader of sins who was holding his daughter, to rebuke her with the attitude of running away and hiding.
(Bartra): You worried me...
(Elizabeth): Sorry dad... I shouldn’t have hurt Veronica
(Bartra): it’s okay was an accident... This happens
Meliodas said nothing, he had a neutral expression for the King of Lyons, but he was angry inside, what happened to his goddess when he was absent?
(Merlin): Did something happen when we were out?
(Bartra): Nothing happened, it was only this morning that the girls discussed...
(Elizabeth): It did...
Bartra was confused, thinking that the speech of Veronica hurt her and getting worried about his daughter, Meliodas also got worried, Merlin was tense, the other sins were watching, they would ask their captain what is the relationship with the third princess.
(Meliodas): What do you mean, Elizabeth? What happened?
The blond asked, a little apprehensive.
The girl took her little hand up to her big hair loop, it looked like she was picking something inside the fabric, and then pulled out something shiny in green hue on her closed fist, when she opened her fist, there was a metallic cockroach with paws similar to small claws, he made a small cheerful noise, Meliodas was analyzing the metal insect, wondering where that disgusting creature had come from, Merlin looked facisnada, King and Escanor looked with a little disgust, Ban with his smug smile on the current situation, Gowther just looked at everything around him... While Diane?
Gave a frightened scream and threw himself back falling butt to the ground, causing a tremor in the resinto, which scared Elizabeth and the Keybug, who formed a holographic balloon and with the message of a scared emoticon, Cyn stopped playing in the child’s subconscious and began to speak "Giggle" while he was in the confusion, Bartra scared with his daughter is holding something dangerous in hand.
(Bartra): Elizabeth my daughter, give me this... it’s too dangerous
(Meliodas): Elizabeth releases it
(Elizabeth): No! It’s not dangerous... The key is cool
The blonde strange that, but he thinks there were many people in the place, he asked for the other sins to wait on the outside side, with some reluctance they foam and Merlin remained in the enclosure.
The demon put her on the floor looking into elizabeth’s eye that was not covered with the fringe of her hair.
(Bartra): Where did you find this?
The man asks worried.
(Elizabeth): Found it? I did... It looks disgusting but is very cute...
(Meliodas): Did you?
Meliodas still incredulous about it, he knew that his Elizabeth loved to create new things, but she never really put her ideas into practice, for everyone said that was absurd and useless, even Meliodas thought something improbably happened, but sees that insect of unknown nature in the hand of his beloved rencarnada was facisnante and scary.
(Bartra): C-how so?
(Elizabeth): Well... I wanted to do something different... because I was failing a lot in my practice classes of magic... and I did not want to frustrate anyone...
The blond felt bad for letting Elizabeth think that way about herself.
Merlin decided enters the discourse since she was paying more attention to the robotic insect.
(Merlin): It’s normal to fail sometimes princess, the important thing is what you learn about it... But what led you to create this curious specimen? and why this appearance? and what is he able to do?
Elizabeth’s eyes shone with emotion at the questions of gluttony, she was more than excited now to answer.
(Elizabeth): Well... I wanted to redeem myself from the problems you were having with me... so I created the keybug... Right in appearance?
Elizabeth stopped for a brief moment to think, because Cyn had told her that the appearance of the little robot would be due to its resistance and adaptation.
(Elizabeth): because cockroaches are resistant and have a great adaptability regardless of the location... And I created it thinking about it... But he doesn’t do well in very hot places
Merlin only listened, still interested in Elizabeth’s inquiry.
(Elizabeth): And what he can do... everything... that is in his ability to do
Merlin held the laugh with the silly but still curious answer, Bartra was still looking at the insect, and Meliodas was apprehensive.
(Merlin): Right... but could you show me what he does?
(Elizabeth): Sure! Are you ready Key?
The insect forms another holographic balloon thanks to its green leds on his back, it forms a message of one hand making a little to confirm that was ready your skills, merlin got beamed with the projected image, she curiously passed her fingers over the balloon, briefly disintegrating it and soon the holographic balloon returns to normal. what made her more curious about how that being was created. Meliodas looked facesome but still worried, the King of Liones surprised at his daughter’s ability to do it.
(Merlin): Curious, he has intelligence of his own, and what is that he projected?
Elizabeth had left the drawing of the project in her room so she could explain, and did not know how to respond Merlin, soon Cyn decided to come in to help the girl.
"(Cyn): The keybug took the perfect and high resolution picture of the drawing... then you can better explain the question... and what he projected was images in a prism and they are reflected to our eyes. These translucent images overlap the environment, generating a mixture between the two worlds, the real and the virtual. And the memory of the keybug is able to save these images or even produce them"
(Elizabeth): Well... could Keybug show you the drawing of your project?
Soon the cheap robo showed his drawing, the sheet was full of drawings of keybug, as its legs, antennas, leds, its chest, and its features, but the letter of Elizabeth was not very readable, Bartra had to make the girl improve her handwriting.
(Elizabeth): What Keygug projected was images in a small prism that stand on the lights of his back, and his antennas are able to pick up the signals, and the image is reflected to our eyes. These translucent images overlap the environment, generating a mixture between the two worlds, the real and the virtual. And the memory of the keybug is able to save these images or even produce them in real time
(Bartra): How fascinating... but how did you create this my daughter?
(Elizabeth): Well...
The brown-haired girl had a bland smile about how she would tell what she had done, but she was denounced by the Keybug, who changed the image and went back to the speech balloons.
"She stole materials from some armor"
(Elizabeth): You traitor! I was going to replace the armor’s fingers!
Merlin had a funny smile with the interaction, Meliodas still processing with the explanation of Elizabeth, since his head was still sore because of the hangover, and Bartra had understood where the missing fingers of the armor, but he was a little disappointed with Elizabeth’s attitude, he would have a great conversation with the 5 year old.
(Merlin): Indeed he is a fascinating creature Princess Elizabeth... Is it okay if I study your creation better?
"(Cyn): You can let her take it... she seems quite proud of you... congratulations Elizabeth"
The little girl was completely happy to possibly make the witch proud of her, and also happy that Cyn is proud of her.
(Elizabeth): Of course you can take... Lady Merlin
The former Elliot decided to speak in a more polite way because of her father who was close to her, the girl handed Merlin the Keybug with a big proud smile in the mouth, Bartra sighed, now taking his youngest daughter on his lap.
(Bartra): Sorry for the current events sins... are now dispensed with
(Elizabeth): But dad... I wanted to stay a little longer with the meli...
(Bartra): My daughter the sins need to take care of other duties... And alias I have a very serious conversation with you young lady...
Elizabeth and Cyn were confused by that, but Cyn would appreciate not to stay another minute in the same enclosure of Meliodas, soon the King with his daughter in arms left the enclosure leaving the Leader of the Seven Capital Sins and the Magician group.
(Meliodas): What the fuck was that?
