Dreyfus, you take care of the Seven Deadly Sins.
Very well.

It is a story of ancient times.{This is a tale of ancient times, from when the worlds of humans and non-humans were not separated.}
Liones wasn't the only nation with the power of the Holy Knights.{Liones was not the only kingdoms to have holy knights.}
They are used throughout all Britannia.{They existed throughout Britannia.}
Magic is power.
And that very power
is what shapes the fate of each nation.{Magic gave power, and that power would control the fates of entire kingdoms.}
Amongst the numerous Holy Knights, there is one group whose fame stretched all across Britannia.
And that group's name was—{Among the many knights, the ones whose name was known throughout all of Britannia were...}

Episode 17
First Casualty
Open the gate!
I am Hendrickson, one of the commanders of the Holy Knights of the Kingdom of Liones.
I understand you are the ruler of a kingdom in the south,
but don't you think it bad etiquette to visit without first sending a messenger?
I am the King of Camelot, Arthur Pendragon.
I apologize for my lack of etiquette.
The King of Liones once did me a great favor,
and I have come to express my gratitude.
With an army at your back?
I surmised that this was the only way to receive an audience.
What?
I must admit you had us deceived.
But unfortunately, the king is currently bedridden due to a sudden illness.
Please come back another time.
That is all the more reason I cannot leave.
My companion can heal the king's illness.
We appreciate your kindness, but we must still ask you to leave.
I shall not.
Insolence!
What do you mean?{###}
Lord Hendrickson, I can understand wanting to avoid outsiders prying into your matters,{Hendrickson-dono, I can understand that you are currently dealing with sensitive matters and would like to avoid outsiders prying into them,}{don't know what you do with the suffixes}
but I would like to offer our help in solving those problems.
Wh-Where am I?
I was in the Boar Hat just a moment ago...
Lord Meliodas?
Welcome back to Liones.
Did you bring me here?
Please, take me back to Lord Meliodas—
Is this really Liones?
Hawk?!
Where am I?!
I seriously can't hold it in anymore!
It's coming out! It's coming!
Super Loin Illusion!
Mission complete!
Hawk! You're bleeding!
What was that noise?
A guard! Hide—
Rolling Ham Attack!
All right! Let's go!
O-Okay.
Three?
Haven't five of the Deadly Sins already joined together?
{thoughts} If Diane came, she'd really stand out.
{thoughts} Thank goodness...
{thoughts} No, that's nothing to be happy about!
As Hendrickson's faithful dog, you must know something, right, Cardinal Helbram?
How can a mere cardinal like me have access to information that you don't, Lord Dreyfus?
Yikes!
Well, if there's anything they would be going for,
it would be Lord Hendrickson's magic research lab.
Don't let Meliodas use his Full Counter!
Take him down with your weapons directly!
How do you expect to win without using magic? Idiots.
Well, using it won't help you much either.
And they still keep sending more waves.
I guess we just need to beat them all up.
Let's be efficient.
Sacred Treasure, Twin Bow Herritt.
Sacred Treasure Twin Bow Herritt
Sacred Treasure?!
Where the hell was he hiding that?
Rewrite Light!
Rewrite Light
Hey, Gowther, that thing didn't do anything.
Meliodas! My son!
Ban! I missed you, Brother!
Gowther!
Gowther, what the hell?
These Holy Knights currently think we are their relatives, friends, or lovers
who they had not seen for a long time.
You overwrote their memories?
It's a rather simple trick.
Once they notice the inconsistencies, they'll revert back to normal.
Also they won't have any recollection of what happened while they were under the effect.
Never ever use that on us!
Roger.
All right, we snuck into the capital, but what now?
And we can't just start fights inside the city.
Yeah, that's kind of a pain in the butt.
With this many Holy Knights around, it's difficult to search for Elizabeth's presence.
Let's go to the castle.
In fairy tales, the princess is always locked away in the dungeon under the castle.
Isn't it on the top floor of a tower?
The castle, huh?
Hold on! What is the meaning of this?
Envoys sent to other kingdoms sometimes get assassinated,
even if those envoys are kings.
What is your goal?
Well, that's a secret.
Oh my, are you busy?
Shall I lend a hand?
What happened to the last fragment?
She's in the castle dungeon.
Should I have brought her directly to the ritual site?
The Seven Deadly Sins have infiltrated the capital.
Make sure they don't take the fragment.
The Deadly Sins are here already?
Very well.
Then, pretty boy and shabby-looking mage, I bid you good day.
That was teleportation!
Was that a Liones mage?
You don't need to know.
Commander Hendrickson!
Arthur Pendragon.
I see you are not a king in name only.
So this is the level of a Liones Holy Knights commander.
This is looking better than I expected.
We'll aide you, sir!
Take care of the other one.
What the hell?
Judging by the sound and vibrations, it's 0.5 miles away.
It's between the south gate and the castle.
Well, there was someone with ridiculous magic power around just now.
The faint sensation I'm getting now is Hendrickson's magic.
He's the man who was ranked platinum ten years ago.{He's the man who held ten years ago held the title Platinum.}{"was known as" if it's not a thing}
We're going there. Come on!
What? Weren't we going to the castle?
The quickest way to save Elizabeth is to defeat him.
I think we'd best follow him.
What was that explosion?!
It's a battle! A battle is starting!
Guila{-onee-chan}...
I know! I know!
Say...
What is it?
Have you seen the commander like that before?{I don't know what title you've used before for Meliodas}
No.
I was a bit startled myself.
I don't think I've ever seen him that furious before.
Do you think he'd be that furious if I was the one kidnapped instead of Elizabeth?
Diane...
Well, of course he would be!
You're a cherished team member.
Yeah, he's pretty kind.
Still, I don't think it would be quite the same.
I... I'd be totally furious!
And I'd go rescue you even if I had to do it alone!
King... {My instinct was to put a `:)` at the end of the line}
Are you trying to console me?
That... That's not what...
I was—
Y-You're right.
We need to hurry.
Oh yeah, that's right!
Oslow!
Is that... a dog?
A black hound.
A type of fairy who lives in between the worlds of humans and fairies.
This one's an old friend of mine.
They have a magical ability to transport something they swallow to another place.
So he can send us to Liones right away?
Exactly!
Why didn't you introduce your friend to us earlier?
The commander wouldn't get mad.
One more dog doesn't make a difference at this point.{I'm guessing the commander was mad about some of the other animals}
The problem is he likes pork.
I see.
Let's do this, Oslow.
Is this really Liones?
It's very dark. I can't see anything.
And my butt is stuck so I can't get through.
Please push my butt!
Pushing Diane's butt...
Come on!
But...
I'm not sure if I'm ready to take this step.
What's in here?
It's a magic research lab, so there is a plethora of precious magical items.
I guess they just want to get their hands on anything expensive because they need money.
Listen up, Guila and Jericho!
You two should also get hyped up and put an end to these Seven Deadly Sins once and for all!
Tan?
We shall not let you down.
And when we're done, I ask you to reveal to me
the reason behind the disappearance of my father, Holy Knight Dale.
Hmm... Well, all right.
The cellar.
Wha— Please wait, Lord Dreyfus!
The Serpent's Sin!
Diane!
Hey, this place is crawling with Holy Knights!
{part b}
Long time no see, Deadly Sin.
What business does one of the Deadly Sins persecuted by the kingdom have here?
Where's Elizabeth?
What are you talking about?
Give us back Elizabeth!
Idiot!
Run!
Get out of here now!
It seems you do not realize the position you're in.
I shall slay her.
There's no need for a High{/greater/supreme} Knight to bother with some huge immobilized opponent.
Godly Swift Bone Crusher!
Godly Swift Bone Crusher
Blacking out just as the battle begins... What do I do with you?
That is the level of power they can manifest through their sacred treasures.
You're no match for them.
Retreat from this battle.
No way!
We're Holy Knights too!
Gilthunder. Hauser.
Sir!
I won't repeat myself.
Shut up!
Gil! Wait!
Purge of the Thunder Emperor.
Purge of the Thunder Emperor
Diane!
Something's happened on the other side!
Oslow!
So this is Gilthunder's magic, Thunderbolt.
Some of the electric surge is spilling over in our direction too!
It's tearing at my body!
What's the matter, Hauser?
Faltering when faced with a Deadly Sin?
Commander Dreyfus, I...
Or do you have a reason preventing you from attacking this one?
Rising Tornado!
Joint technique, Dragon Castle.
Joint Technique Dragon Castle
Crap!
Good boy.
Hello, little badger.
Now that we have a lighting tornado, we are going to...
Gustav, I'll be borrowing your ice magic.
At your disposal.
Hail Bullet.
Hail Bullet
That's humbling.
Don't think lightly of giants!
What was that? Did you say something?
Giant or not, I think you're at your wit's end, aren't you?
Ground Gladius!
Ground Gladius
Commander, look!
Yeah, it's Ground Gladius. Diane's technique.
What's she doing in the capital?
That's weird.
But this is without a doubt her magic.
What are we going to do, Commander?
I'll go.
You should prioritize rescuing the princess, Commander.
I praise your fighting spirit and courage to not falter when faced with us.
You are a worthy opponent.
Diane of the Seven Deadly Sins,
your death will raise the curtain of the holy war.
Give me back Elizabeth! Give me back my friend!
The princess is your friend?
Give her back!
Weak!
Ground Gladius!
S-Seriously?!
He stopped it with a sword?
Magic is a manifestation of one's willpower, ideology, and experience.
I'll crush anything that hinders the realization of my ideal and move forward!
The name of my magic, born from my pursuit of supreme might, is Break!{Looks like a sign is missing here}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}
Break
Die.
Awe-inspiring.
This is the power of a commander of the Holy Knights.
This can't be happening...
Your skills are as outstanding as ever, {O, }our most powerful Holy Knight commander.
Cardinal Helbram, you survived unscathed?
Well, I managed to cast my substitution magic just in the nick of time.
Several guys were killed by that attack, but who cares?
I can always get more.
Helbram, is the princess currently in Liones?
Is she? Perhaps that giant girl just had false information.
Elizabeth was assailed by one of you people.
They appeared out of nowhere, grabbed her, and disappeared.
Is she immortal or something?
Stop it! Don't stand up!
Giants are much tougher than humans think!
Fabric Pierce. {this is a stupid technique name... the "ra" literally means "gauze"... maybe that idea is that it pierces anything as if it were piercing gauze?}
Fabric Pierce
Crumbling Strike.
Crumbling Strike
What in the world is happening all around the kingdom these days?!
No idea, man.
Run!
Over in that direction...
Zeal!
Guila! Where are you going?
This is Holy Knight Commander Dreyfus.
People of Liones, hear my words.
It's Lord Dreyfus' voice.{what do we do with sama?}
The rebels known as the Seven Deadly Sins have infiltrated Liones.
They have taken destructive actions.
That bastard.
The Seven Deadly Sins?
Then this giant...
Yes, it's her. It's Diane of the Serpent's Sin.
The holy war prophecy of old has come to pass.
But have no fear!
The Holy Knights and I are here for Liones.
Those of you who can fight, take up arms and stand strong!
{crowds} Scoundrel!
{crowds} Get that Deadly Sin ruffian.
Please stop.
I... I'm not your enemy.
Shut up!
You tore through our town!
She's getting away!
After her!
The giant started attacking!
No. It wasn't me.
Zeal! Zeal!
What am I doing here?
Humans... A human kingdom... Why should I care about them?
I've always been alone.
I can just go back to that.
No. I made a promise.
To Elizabeth.
Diane.
What was that explosion?!
A giant who destroys a town.
How picturesque.
Aren't you the one destroying things, Cardinal Helbram?
It's okay. No matter what I do, the only one close enough to get hurt is Diane.
I'm adding production value.
What is the meaning of this?!
Don't you see?
We need the one cast as the villain to do some flashy evil deeds.
In order to have the righteousness of knighthood, we need a villain.
We need the utter evil of the Seven Deadly Sins.
Then what about the information that the Seven Deadly Sins
are planning to overthrow the rule of the kingdom?
Is that a lie too?!
Guila!
Who cares about that?
Our job here is to take Diane's head.
When that's done...
Jericho,
why did you drink the blood of the devil?
Sis!{or Onee-chan}
Guila{-onee-chan}!
Don't come this way!
A-A giant...
Zeal!
Did you... save me?
{flashback?} Friends.{or "comrades"? I guess you'll copy it from a previous episode anyway}
{flashback?} Yes, we're friends.
I'm sorry...
I couldn't help you...
This seems to be the end of the road for you.
Commander Dreyfus!
Please let me, Jericho, be the one to take Diane's head!
Very well.
When I succeed, I'd like to become a High{/greater/supreme} Knight.
What is the meaning of this, Hauser?
You told me something once.
You said I should use my power only when I feel I'm in the right.
That time has come!
You intend to stand against us by yourself?
No.
He's not alone.
Hauser? Guila?
