Jon finally arrived at the battle site between Meliodas and Hendrickson.

Looking from a distance, the surrounding terrain has been completely changed by the two beings with the power of the devil, turning it into a desolate land with deep pits within deep pits.

"There's quite a commotion~" Jon whistled and walked straight into the battlefield like no one else.

Meliodas and Hendrickson, who have become demons, have different perceptions than ordinary people, and they immediately noticed the uninvited guests.

The two of them stopped with a tacit understanding and looked at each other sternly.

But their reactions next were completely different.

But Meliodas quietly exited the demon state and said in a relaxed tone: "Why are you here? I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Then he looked at Hendrickson, "You're done. If Lord Jon takes action, you won't be able to last three seconds."

"Jon... Sir? Meliodas, are you serious?" Hendrickson's eyes kept looking at Jon.

Finally, Dreyfus landed at the opponent's feet, and his expression quietly changed.

"Don't look, the demons hidden in his body have already escaped." Jon put down Dreyfus, "It will be your turn soon."

"The Demon Clan...what are you talking about?" Hendrickson pretended not to know anything and waited in awe.

Jon said calmly: "Stop pretending, I'm not afraid to tell you. I let that guy go on purpose. After all, he's just a pawn. It's easy to kill him. It's better to let him go back and use it as bait to catch a few big fish."

"You're talking nonsense, just a bard, a clown hanging around at banquets!" Hendrickson waved his hand, showing his arrogance, "You're worthy of talking to me?"

"The verbal attack has started, right? Okay, okay, very good." Jon pulled out his homemade fluorescent sword: "By the way, don't you really want this thing? I'll give you a chance, come and get it."

Fragments of the Coffin of Everlasting Darkness!

His brain was working rapidly, and Hendrickson understood everything.

The one who appeared in the royal capital before was the unassuming bard in front of him, not Meliodas.

He and Dreyfus were fooled!

"Let me guess, you first sneaked into the royal capital with that woman Marin, and then deliberately released the aura of the fragments of the Ever Dark Coffin..."

At this point, Hendrickson simply stopped pretending, "Then you stay where you are to attract Dreyfus, while Marlene sneaks into the castle and rescues Lyonesse's family.

Your purpose is to make me misjudge Meliodas's location so that I can relax my vigilance."

"That's right." Jon nodded: "I've told you everything."

Hendrickson added: "That woman Marlene deliberately left the mark of teleportation magic on King Leonis in order to lead me here."

Meliodas: "Not only King Leonis, but Margaret also has a teleportation mark on her body. No matter who you kidnap, the result will not change."

"Are you so sure that I will use hostages?" Hendrickson asked curiously.

"Scumbags like you can't resist the temptation to coerce others." Jon smiled, "That's true, isn't it?"

Hendrickson remained silent.

accurate.

But there is no reason to refute it.

"Okay, I admit that you guys have failed, and I underestimated you." Hendrickson let out a sigh of relief and said with a sneer.

After a pause, he added: "We have made arrangements in and outside the city. I believe that the garrison and knight troops also have your back-up staff."

"It's just a last resort. Who told us to have a silly sweet princess? All we want to do is talk, talk, and do nothing wrong. We have to be the one to talk to." Jon spread his hands helplessly.

Meliodas cooperated and made the same move: "So, we sent the person who is least likely to lose to calm down the situation."

Hendrickson:???

What are you talking about? Why can't I understand?

"Anyway, I won't bother you over there." Meliodas was full of confidence in Escanor during the day.

In Hendrickson's eyes, the blond boy looked relaxed and had a different kind of pleasure in winning.

Too--

In this operation, Meliodas did almost nothing. He just pretended to activate a plug-in, and after delaying Hendrickson's actions for a while, he achieved unexpected results.

The offensive and defensive lines of the royal capital blossomed.

Meliodas said that it was really nice to get things done by scratching the surface without having to fight for life or death~

"One link after another, amazing." Hendrickson sighed.

He and Dreyfus made a lot of preparations.

Unfortunately, Jon Joestar and the Seven Deadly Sins were able to move faster than they thought.

It was as if I had just loaded the bullet and before pulling the trigger, I was shot in the middle of my eyebrow.

This shot is called Good Night——

What is there to say now? Being at a disadvantage and being defeated are completely different things.

As long as we kill these two troublesome guys in front of us, we still don’t know who will win!

The demonic power gathered, and Hendrickson looked ferocious.

He was planning to fight to the death.

Jon suddenly swayed.

The next second, he came behind Hendrickson, "Surpris!"

"What?"

The enemy's speed was beyond Hendrickson's imagination. Before he could react, Jon took action directly and recorded a 'righteous backstab'.

"My brain is not bad and my determination is strong, but my reaction is a bit slow."

That was the last sound Hendrickson heard.

Immediately, he knew nothing and closed his eyes heavily.

"Dead?" Meliodas hurried forward to check.

Jon said with relief: "Don't worry, I just wiped out the demon blood in his body. Hendrickson himself is still alive and well."

"Oh, that's good~" Hearing this, Meliodas felt relieved.

Not only did Hendrickson watch him grow up, he also had many unforgettable memories when he was an errand in the Kingdom.

He didn't want to see his old man die unless it was absolutely necessary...

Especially the death caused by being infected by the blood of the devil.

"Is this done?" Meliodas put his hands on his pillow, "Although I haven't done anything, I feel very tired for no reason."

"I've finished all your work, and you're still tired?" Jon weighed the hilt of the lightsaber, "By the way, didn't you even notice that this thing has been subcontracted?"

"Ah?!" Meliodas was stunned for a moment, then broke into a cold sweat.

After grabbing the strange lightsaber, he looked closely and saw some clues.

"you you……"

"What are you doing? Don't worry, I still have the original copy." Jon smiled, and like magic, he took out the dragon-shaped broken sword, which was the fragment of the coffin of Everlasting Darkness that Dreyfus and Hendrickson had been trying to get.

.

Meliodas's heart suddenly returned to his stomach.

"Don't scare me, Lord Jon." Meliodas said angrily.

The reason why the fragments of the Coffin of Eternal Darkness were entrusted to Jon was because, as the incarnation of "that" will, Jon was more suitable to keep the key that sealed the Demon Clan than himself.

Everyone is a brainiac.

Everyone is a riddler.

Jon's identity is obviously not simple in Meliodas' mind...

"There is no other meaning. I just follow the trend of the times. The unblocking of the Demon God Clan is a matter of time. It won't work in ten or eight years, but it will succeed in thousands of years." Jon held two swords, one real and one fake: "Instead of waiting passively, it is better to

Take the initiative, do you understand what I mean?"

Meliodas is not stupid.

Wen Xian Zhi Ya's intention, he spoke tentatively: "Are you saying that you deliberately exiled the fake Eternal Darkness Coffin fragments to the outside world?"

No one else dares to say more, but Mr. Qiao’s ability to get things done is absolutely top-notch.

This suggestion directly poked Meliodas in the heart.

Take the initiative?

sounds good.

"We will discuss this matter later. Anyway, let's go meet Diane and the others first. By the way, we also need to inform Escanor that there is no need to engage in a useless battle."

Meliodas forced down the messy thoughts in his mind and gently scratched his brow.

The most important thing right now is to put an end to things in Lyonis Kingdom.
