"You're saying this kid is one of the Seven Deadly Sins?" One of the men say

"I don't believe it!"

"No, he totally stopped my fully-charged arrow, I just can't imagine some random kid'll be able to pull a stunt like that!"

"That is correct, I am the one and only Gowther the Goat Sin"

"Huh? So back then you were the one wearing that armor? I was always convinced that it was stuffed with a giant old man" Ban says circling Gowther

"Your gaze, your stride, tone, attitude, the scar on your cheek, are you Ban the undead then?"

"Now that's the Gowther I remember!"

"He's one of the Seven Deadly Sins to? So that means that young boy who is a dead ringer of the Meliodas I knew from long ago must be..." a girl soldier speaks up

"Yep you got it, I'm Captain Meliodas! Over there is my wife Lexi, nice to meet you!" Meliodas points to himself then Alex

"This little squirt is the captain of the Seven Deadly Sins? And that's Alexandria?! I thought she was like old and..." A man says looking over at Alex

"I am not wrinkly! Please delete that image from your minds! It's a drawing!" Alex runs a hand down her face dramatically

"Yep! Anyways you guys surprised?" Meliodas asks

"Yes!" The man says

"It's astonishing," Gowther says

"What, you mean you don't see it in him? Then what about that guy!" Ban points to King "your so gonna flip! That's King!"

"No, that's someone else. The bone structure, the tome, the body odor is nothing like King's."

"Ew body odor? What do I smell like?" Alex says

"Like the Captain but with a hint of strawberry" Gowther turns to look at her for a second while speaking to her

"Oh wow" she pulls her shirt up to smell it "but I don't smell the strawberries" she frowns and Gowther turns back around to see King switched back to his other form

"It is undeniably King"

"Way to backtrack" Ban grins

"Wonderful! I got to run into not only Gowther but three of the Seven Deadly Sins, plus Alexandria... so happy! I would love to ask you for a match, but... What a pity! Our mission today is solely to bring home that Armor Giants head" The man with the mask speaks up

"By the way, who's inside the armor?" Meliodas asks

"I'm not really sure" Gowther answers

"Now then! Time to get to work!" The masked man says

"I'd actually prefer if you left him alone? Please."

"What's going on Gowther? Why not just let them do what they want?" Ban asks

"Yeah the fact is the only reason we tried to protect him was because we thought he was you"

"If Gowther wants him to live so be it, if you guys don't get up on this front line to protect him I will personally kick your asses. Thank you." Alex looks at all of them and they scramble to get beside her

"Even after sensing this power firsthand, you still think you can defeat him?" Gowther says

"Yes, we can. I'll admit, I'd say two of us... no, one of us is sure to die, but it's a sure bet that we'll be claiming this one's head" the masked man answers
