The Deadliest Sin

As I landed at the front of my tower I was greeted by James. Before when I dropped off Simon and Kon I never got a good look at his new appearance. He changed, now he looks badass. As I approached him he got on one knee and looked to the ground, making me raise a brow.

“I am sorry, my liege, for abandoning Simon during the fight.” As he spoke I could hear the fear in his voice. He looked up to me, his white eyes burning in regret, and bowed. “Please show mercy on this loyal subject. I was afraid and feared I would only get in the way of Simon as he fought.” I began to approach him once more but before I could say anything the rest of the mummies burst out of the door and jumped in front of James, trying to protect him. In a panic, the head butler got up and tried to quell his fellow mummies in order for them to not be punished.

I walked past them all without saying a word. I looked back at James and gave a quick nod to him, causing him to fall to his knees in relief.

Locking in on Simon’s magic signature I make my way over to where he is. We have a medical area underneath the library. This tower has so many things I don’t know about. I made my way through the hallways and I found the room where Simon magic is the strongest. When I open the door I see the newest sin Greed standing over Simon with his hand planted over his mouth.

In an instant I was next to the dragon and grabbed him by the throat, lifting him up in the air. “What do you think you're doing?” I question in a dark tone as Kon tries to pry my hand off of him.

“I.. am trying… to help.. him… YOU IDIOT!” he said in between breaths. I dropped him to the ground to let him explain. “There is residual poison from our fight in him. And my poison is extremely toxic as you should know by the amount of damage caused.” He stood back up and placed his hand back over Simon’s mouth. “For the past three days, I’ve been coming here and taking the poison out of his system slowly so as to not cause any internal damage.” As he said that he raised his hand and out of Simon’s mouth came a string of poison that flowed back into the dragon.

Simon woke up and burst into a coughing fit, before calming down and going back to sleep.

Kon looked at me and shook his head. “Don’t worry he’s been doing that every time I extract poison. I’ll come back in an hour and two, to check up on him.” The dragon then walked out of the room making his way to the lounge area.

Walking up to Simon, I place a hand on his head and use a healing spell. “That's good,” I said as his breathing evened out and he stopped sweating. Now I need to go see how the ponies are doing.

Canterlot Castle, Throne Room

“What are we going to do, Tia?” Luna questioned as she paced back and forth in the middle of the throne room. There weren’t as many guards with them as they were still recovering from the effects of Kons rampage. “Our ponies are calling for the dragon's head, but Zeldris took him in.”

Celestia who was sitting on her throne began to rub her temples. “I have no idea, Lulu.” She then let out a long sigh. “We will have to consult the demon and see if he’ll give us the dragon. If he doesn’t,” a dark look crossed her face. “We will have to take it by force.” Luna shivers at the thought of fighting against the demon and fallen duo again.

“Have you gone mad sister? What chance do we possibly stand against them?” Luna started to laugh madly. The pressure in the room became very heavy, and the guards were casting glances at one another nervously. Luna then looked at her sister with a crazed smile on her face. “If you try to take something from that man, you will die.”

Before Celestia could retort the doors flew open. “Aunties what’s going on! Why are my subjects rioting in the streets?! I’ve put up with it long enough!” Blueblood yelled in anger. “GUARDS! Go teach those ungrateful nobles their place!” The red-faced prince commanded the guards in the room. The royal guards began to move before being stopped.

“You will do no such thing, return to your position, Day Guards. And dear nephew…”

“SILENCE AND BE GONE!” Both Luna and Celestia yelled in the royal Canterlot voice in unison, causing Blueblood to fall to the ground in shock.

In a huff he scurried out of the room, the guards shutting the door behind him.

After a couple of minutes, somepony finally spoke. “How are Twilight and the elements of harmony doing?” Luna asked as she walked up to her throne and took a seat next to her sister.

Celestia sighed. “They are fine, just a little shocked from all the aftermath of the fight. I think.. umm.. what was her name? Butters? The yellow one was the one who was hit the hardest.” Luna quirked a brow. Seeing this look Celestia continued. “She is the one who loves animals, and with the forests being damaged by the poison cloud some of the animals were affected.” Luna nodded in understanding.

“Well, that’s good to hear as long as none of them were hurt—”

“Worrying about me how kind,” I said as I entered the room using a gate. The guards around me went to attack but Sloth raised her hand.

“Ah, Captain, just who we wanted to talk to.” Sloth rose from her throne, followed by Envy, and met me in the middle of the room. “Now, how about we talk about this dragon you’ve taken in?”

I smirked. “Oh, you’ve heard? So you should also know that said dragon is your fellow sin.” Both of their mouths dropped at that. I chuckled a little before continuing. “Judging from your reaction, you didn’t know!” I said in mock shock as I put a hand over my mouth to cover my smile.

“How can you let a dragon as vile as that be a sin! Isn’t our job to protect ponies? He’s done nothing but kill them!” Luna yelled in protest. She became began to let her bloodlust loose on me.

I wasn’t having that.

I let my bloodlust out, and let it fill the room until it was hard for them to breathe. Once the guards fell to the floor I stopped. “What is the name of your group, hmm? The Seven Deadly Sins. Sins are not a good thing. Sins are evil are they not?” I questioned sincerely. “And our job is to protect the whole world, not just the ponykind.”

“That may be the case, but me and Lulu are Sins. We are not evil.” Sloth said in defense

Looking at her in the eyes I spoke. “Yes, yes you both are. Or were. In the past, you two must have been terrible ponies to be named a sin. I don’t know much of the history of this world but from my travels, in the multiverse, I do know of your dirty secret Envy.” A chill went down her spine as a wicked smile crossed my face. “Nightmare Moon.”

She fell to her knees and was immediately comforted by her sister. “Now I just need to find out the full story of your sin Luna. And I need to find out how you acquired the sin of Sloth, Celestia.”

“It was not Luna’s fault she was possessed by a demon! It’s not her fault at all.” Sloth said as she helped Luna back to her feet. “Now apologize to her you—”

Luna quickly stood up, startling her sister. “It’s alright Tia. It’s just it caught me off guard that he knew.” Dusting off her dress she cleared her throat. “Now back to what we were discussing before, our ponies demand the dragon's head. Without it, I don’t believe we can calm our ponies' rage.” Luna stated calmly.

“Ok,” I said rubbing my chin in thought to the surprise of the two princesses.

“Wait what? You're really going to kill him? I thought you said…” Luna trailed off confused.

“No, I’m not going to kill him. I’ll use a little trick called deception.” The princess tilted their head in confusion. “Follow me outside.”

We made our way outside to be greeted by a large number of ponies outside that were in a crazed state. Most had fresh tear stains, while others eyes were red from having cried so much before. Some were angry and yelling their heads off about the injustice that was committed. While others had a blank stare looking off into space. These were all the various types of ways the ponies felt with the grief, of losing loved ones.

“Ahem.” I clear my throat to get the attention of my subjects— er the ponies. Celestia was on my right and Luna was on my left. We flew up above the crowd so they could all clearly see us. “Most of you may not know me, but I am a close friend of your princess.” Both of them scoffed. “They have called me to deal with a problem you wanted to get rid of. A certain dragon problem.” At saying that they began to cause a ruckus again. I raised my hand for silence, which I got. “Thank you. I am sorry for all of your losses. But do not fret, for I have the thing which you’ve asked for.”

I raised a hand palm facing the sky and above us, a purple dragon's head materialized. Shocking the princesses and the ponies below. You could clearly see where it was cut off at, and it was not a clean cut. A lot of the ponies threw up upon seeing it which cause me to snicker.

After they had a minute to see the head I ignited it on fire and it vaporized instantly.

“You no longer have to fear! I have slain the evil dragon! Now is the time to rejoice!” I said, my voice amplified by magic. I wrapped my arm around Celestia and Luna and teleported back into the throne room.

“What was that?!” Luna yelled as she wiped the bewildered look off her face.

Letting out an exasperated sigh I spoke. “It was just a simple illusion spell.” Both of their mouths dropped once again. That is getting annoying. “Have you not noticed my power up? I have my second demon Mark activated, which means I have access to all of my 9th and 10th tier magic and more transformations.”

Celestia shook her head. “No it’s just for that illusion magic was so real, it reminded us of a certain someone we had to deal with when we were younger.” I saw her shiver at the thought of the person.

That interests me greatly, but it’s time to go. For some reason, I’m feeling extraordinarily tired. “That is interesting but I have other things to do, so we will talk about this later.”

Back at The Finger

As I made my way to my throne, a peculiar Mickey wrapped present was on it.

“James.”

“Yes, my liege?” He asked as he appeared besides me. Before I could speak he noticed the gift on my throne as well. “Why is there a box on your throne?”

I sighed. “That is what I was going to ask you.”

He walked up to my throne and grabbed the gift, then brought it down to me.

Once the present was in my hands I noticed a letter attached to it. The letter read…

Dear Asshole..

My baby brother went through hell to get this. He literally tore apart his body in the process. He is in bad shape right now so I'm delivering it on his behalf. BE GRATEFUL. I don’t know how long he’ll be down as I’m only helping him a little. I’m his brother, not his nurse, but that doesn’t mean I don’t keep an eye on him or Asta for that matter. In the box is something in a set of six, where the others are, I have no idea. Use it well and know another one of your sins will come soon.

From,
Edward Elric

P.S.-I also saw Asta has given you Waterbending but no scrolls for you to learn from. I have corrected this with a box of them that will appear after you open your first gift.

P.S.S- Go fuck yourself !_!

“Ok then… Wonder if I should pop in on Gar and see if he is alright?” I mumbled to myself as I opened the box. Inside was a soul, but in the soul was what appeared to be a red right-outward facing crescent moon with a circle in the center of the moon on it. “Interesting, this is a demon's soul, if I remember correctly that is Pump’s demon mark. Wait a second, the soul of the other supposed ‘Six Knights of Black member’ Sith didn’t have a demon mark on it.” I rubbed my chin. “Must have been a fake.” I hummed out in thought.

Another box appeared, and I let the soul flout next to me. In the box were the waterbending scrolls like he said. “Ah, finally I can work on my bending.” I stored the scrolls on my inventory and was about to walk off. “Oh can’t forget about you.” I grabbed Pump’s soul and devoured it. “That had to have been the best soul yet.”

On my way to my room, my body started to feel weird. A burning pain ignited all over my body. Placing a hand on my chest I casted heal, which seemed to have made whatever was happening stop. “Strange… I guess I need some sleep..”

And with that, the day is over.
