(Y/n)'s POV

After we had defeated the demons and the Demon King, I restored the Kingdom of Liones to its former glory by simply raising my hand and saying, "Restore." Instantly, the desolate kingdom bloomed with lush greenery, vibrant colors, and majestic structures. The scars of battle vanished, replaced by an aura of tranquility that permeated every corner of the land.

Not far from our sight on the outskirts, we can see the citizens returning to their kingdom, their faces filled with awe and disbelief at the sudden transformation that had taken place. They dropped to their knees, expressing their gratitude and admiration for their newfound admiration or hero. With tears of joy streaming down their faces, they knew that they were finally safe and protected. The air was filled with a sense of hope and renewed determination as the citizens of Liones set out to create a stronger and better future together.

Then, after the citizens returned to their homes, the last to enter the kingdom were the royal family and Elizabeth, while they waved and bowed to me as a sign of thanking me and everyone else. And I thought, 'Yes, bow to me, you lowly humans, for I am the one who saved you all.' I smirked triumphantly, relishing in the power and control I had over their lives. "Hey, what is that smirk for?" Meliodas asked as if he knew what I was thinking. "It seems that there's nothing I can hide from you, dear Meliodas," I giggled. Meliodas chuckled and shook his head, his eyes sparkling mischievously. "Oh, I've always known what lies behind that smirk of yours," he said, his voice filled with fondness. "Okay, fine, I'm sorry. I was just kidding with my thoughts and also trying to see if I could get a reaction out of you all," I admitted sheepishly. The tension in the room dissolved as everyone burst into laughter, happy to let go of the power play. In that moment, I realized that true control and power came from genuine connections and trust, rather than manipulating others. Meliodas truly knew me better than anyone, and I was grateful for his understanding and love.

Elizabeth came rushing to us and shouted, "Everyone, I have great news!" As Elizabeth caught her breath, we all turned our attention to her, curious about the news she was about to share. Her eyes sparkled with excitement as she exclaimed, "We will be having a banquet this evening to celebrate our victory against the demon clan!" The entire group erupted in cheers, clapping and hugging each other tightly. The news of a banquet lifted our spirits, knowing that our hard-fought battles were not in vain and that we had the opportunity to come together to celebrate our triumph. In that moment, I knew that our bonds had grown even stronger and that our unity and trust would continue to be the source of our strength in the battles yet to come. 

Eventually, we went into the castle. The maids unexpectedly met us and took us to our rooms while assisting us in changing. The maids were gentle and kind, and their warm smiles put us at ease. As they helped us change into fresh clothes, the fatigue from the battles seemed to melt away. The castle rooms were spacious and beautifully decorated, a stark contrast to the harsh realities of the battlefield. We couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude and comfort, knowing that we were safe and well cared for. The banquet was just a few hours away, and we couldn't wait to gather again, this time in celebration and the company of our fellow warriors.

Meliodas POV

The banquet is about to start, and the castle is filled with an air of excitement and anticipation. The aroma of sumptuous dishes fills the hallways as the chefs work diligently to prepare a feast fit for us. The sound of laughter and cheerful chatter echos through the corridors as warriors from different kingdoms reunite and exchange stories of their triumphs and near escapes on the battlefield. As the sun sets, casting a warm glow through the stained glass windows, we take our seats at the grand banquet table, ready to celebrate our victories and honor the fallen. I've been looking around, and I can't see (Y/N) yet. The anticipation builds as the feast is about to begin, and I feel a twinge of worry. Suddenly, the doors swung open, and there stood (Y/N). Everyone was stunned by her presence and the beauty she radiated. Her entrance was like a breath of fresh air, as if she had brought life and hope back into the room. Clad in a magnificent gown that shimmered with every step, she exuded an aura of strength and resilience.

As (Y/N) gracefully made her way towards the table, a sense of relief washed over me, knowing that she had made it through the battle unscathed. "You're looking like a goddess, (Y/n)," I complimented, giving her a kiss on the cheek. (Y/N) blushed, and she replied humbly, "Thank you, dear Meliodas." As we sat down at the table, I couldn't help but admire (Y/N)'s strength and resilience. Her presence brought a calming energy to the room, and I felt a surge of gratitude for her being by my side. As she sat beside me, I couldn't help but admire her strength and resilience. Her presence brought a calming energy to the room, and I felt a surge of gratitude for her being by my side. I knew that with (Y/N) by my side, we could face any challenge that came our way, and our love would only grow stronger. "Now, where is your guardian Death?" I inquired. "Well, he'll be here in a minute," she said. "In his form as Death?" I inquired. "No, he's not, I've changed him into a human," (Y/n) softly implied, leaving me in awe of her extraordinary powers. As I looked at (Y/N) in awe, I couldn't help but marvel at the extent of her powers. The fact that she had transformed Death into a human was a testament to her incredible abilities. In that moment, I realized that there was nothing she couldn't do.

Suddenly, the doors swung open, and there stood a mysterious man. He had an air of authority about him, and his piercing gaze seemed to penetrate into my very soul.

(Y/N) placed a hand on my shoulder and whispered, "This is Death, in his human form." As I looked at him, a shiver ran down my spine, realizing that the person standing before me was the embodiment of life's greatest unknown. Death approached us and said in a deep, grave voice, "Sorry I'm late, Master," referring to (Y/n). (Y/N) acknowledged Death with a nod. "I forgive your tardiness this time," (Y/N) replied calmly. "By the way, I couldn't call you here, Death; I should name you something more fitting for your new human form." Death raised an eyebrow in curiosity, awaiting their new name. (Y/N) hesitated for a moment before finally deciding, "From now on, you shall be known as Shin." A faint smile crossed Shin's face, as if he appreciated the chosen name. From that moment on, I realized that Shin was not the fearsome entity I had always imagined. He was simply a servant, carrying out (Y/N)'s bidding in their realm of existence.

The King of Liones had arrived and given a long speech.

"Ladies and gentlemen, honorable citizens of Liones,Today, I Bartra, King of Liones stand before you to address a matter of utmost importance.

In the past, it was believed that the Seven Deadly Sins had betrayed their kingdom and committed horrifying crimes. These accusations were founded upon the tragic death of Lord Zaratras, a highly respected individual within our kingdom. However, recent revelations have shed light on the true perpetrators responsible for this heinous act - Fraudrin and Hendrickson.

Let it be known that the Seven Deadly Sins have been unjustly branded as traitors. Lord Zaratras, firmly proclaimed that the true culprits behind his demise were none other than Fraudrin and Hendrickson. Their sinister plot aimed to sow discord amongst us and tarnish the reputation of our esteemed warriors.

As your king, it is my duty to acknowledge the truth and rectify the unjust treatment faced by the Seven Deadly Sins. They valiantly fought against the demons, risking their lives to protect our beloved kingdom from the looming darkness. Their intentions were never driven by malice or betrayal, but rather by a profound love for Liones.

It is crucial that we restore the reputation of the Seven Deadly Sins, recognizing their unwavering loyalty, selflessness, and sacrifice. They stood tall against the demons, facing insurmountable odds with unmatched courage and skill. Their commitment to defending our land is an inspiration to us all.

The time has come for us to unite and show our gratitude to the Seven Deadly Sins. We must acknowledge the hardships they endured, the battles they fought, and the unwavering bond that binds them together. They embody the virtues of bravery, resilience, and determination, showcasing the very best of what it means to be heroes.

I call upon each and every one of you to stand alongside me in recognizing the innocence and valor of the Seven Deadly Sins. Let us cast away the shadows of doubt that have besmirched their names and honor them as the true protectors of our kingdom.

May this revelation serve as a turning point in our history, where justice prevails and the truth shines brightly. It is time for us to extend our hands in friendship and forgiveness, embracing the Seven Deadly Sins as the esteemed allies they truly are.

To the Seven Deadly Sins, I offer my sincerest apologies on behalf of the kingdom. Your unwavering dedication and bravery have not gone unnoticed, nor will your sacrifices be forgotten. From this day forward, you shall be hailed as heroes, revered and respected by all.

The story revolves around the Kingdom of Camelot, which strayed from their friendship under King Uther Pendragon. However, King Arthur's unwavering efforts and heroism led to the defeat of demons and restoration of their alliance with Camelot. Under King Uther's rule, their commitment to the alliance began to waver, causing division and mistrust. King Arthur, guided by noble values of justice, compassion, and unity, led his knights to battle demonic forces, resulting in victory and the restoration of their alliance. This renewal of alliance demonstrates the power of redemption and forgiveness, highlighting the potential for growth, understanding, and reconciliation.

That's how King Bartra ended his speech. 


(Y/N)'s POV

The crowd went silent for a moment, the weight of his words sinking in. Then, thunderous applause erupted, echoing through the grand hall. The people were moved by their king's determination and unwavering commitment to their welfare. It was a powerful moment, one that would forever be etched in the hearts of the citizens, igniting a renewed sense of unity and hope in the kingdom.

I turned to look at Shin and thought, 'Wait, my Shin didn't even recognize his contribution to defeating the demons and the remaining commandments' so I immediately stood up as the crowd's eyes were on me. "Halt! My Shin didn't receive any complementary words from the King; well, anyway, it's my fault for not telling the King," I said with a mix of frustration and determination. The crowd murmured in agreement and shifted their gaze towards King Bartra, who looked slightly taken aback by my sudden interruption. Sensing the tension in the air, I continued, "Your Majesty, may I have a moment to acknowledge Shin's bravery and selflessness in this great battle?" The King nodded. "So, everyone, Shin battled with us to defeat the demons and the remaining commandments. Also, one of my guardians!" I exclaimed, gesturing towards Shin standing proudly beside me. The crowd erupted into cheers and applause, their admiration for Shin evident in their enthusiastic response. King Bartra smiled, his initial surprise giving way to genuine pride. "Indeed," he replied, "Shin has proven himself to be an invaluable ally to the kingdom. His courage and loyalty are commendable." With those words, the King bestowed upon Shin a prestigious honor, solidifying his place as a revered hero in the annals of our kingdom's history.

"(Y/n), what do you mean by *MY SHIN*?" Meliodas said in a jealous voice, and it seems he is irritated. "You know he was created by my power, and I don't love him as much as I love you, Meliodas," I said while a drop of sweat rolled down my forehead. I tried to reassure Meliodas, "Shin is merely a fictional character, a creation of my imagination. He holds no real place in my heart compared to you. But I was grateful to him for helping me through difficult times and providing inspiration for my writing. I hope you understand that he is just a symbol of my creativity and not a threat to our relationship." Meliodas's expression softened as he listened, realizing that his jealousy was unfounded. Then he suddenly leaned in closer as he kissed me. "Well, I was just kidding, (Y/n)," he whispered with a mischievous grin. "I never really doubted our love, but I couldn't resist teasing you a little. You are my inspiration, my muse, and nothing, not even a fictional character, could ever come between us. I love you." And in that moment, all doubts and worries melted away, replaced by a renewed sense of trust and understanding.

"Also, I forgot to say. Sorry, Arthur, for making you wait," I said as I looked at Arthur. His eyes gleamed as if he were waiting for someone special to come back into his life. I nodded and exclaimed, "We wouldn't mourn for (N/n)! Since she will be with us today!" Arthur's smile widened as he realized that his long-awaited reunion with his beloved (N/n) was finally happening. The crowd murmured, as if they couldn't believe what was happening because it's impossible to bring back the dead. But in that moment, I raised my hand, and the fragment of (N/n) came out as it settled on the floor in front of Arthur. As her body materialized, he reached out to touch her, unsure if she was merely an illusion. But as his fingers grazed her cheek, he felt the warmth of her skin and knew that she was really there. The room erupted in a mixture of elation, disbelief, and overwhelming joy as the impossible became reality. Tears welled up in my eyes as I watched Arthur and his beloved embrace, their long-awaited reunion finally complete. It was a moment of pure magic, reminding us all that sometimes the extraordinary can happen.

"Now, everyone, let the banquet begin!" King Bartra exclaimed. The guests cheered with enthusiasm as they took their seats at the elaborately decorated tables. Platters of delectable dishes were brought out, filling the air with enticing aromas. Laughter and conversation filled the grand hall as everyone savored the moment, knowing that this night would forever be etched in
