The Wandering Demon

After the tragedy of losing his loved one, Ender began roaming the different realms to find something to do. There were times where Ender was forced to teleport to Meliodas just to watch him seeing Elizabeth die and be reincarnated again.

Ender cried every time when he saw Elizabeth die, struggling to scream for Meliodas to hear him, but the curse prevented it.

Time flew by and Ender lost track of how many times he watched Elizabeth die.

In the beginning, Ender still had his funny personality, but as time went on, he started to change. His funny attitude still remained when he interacted with other people but it was something like a mask Ender put on to remember his old days, but slowly, over time, Ender started to lose his emotions.

The only thing that kept him going was the love he had for Merascula.

One time Ender had enough and tried to kill himself, but his own body reacted to it. The moment Ender got a single idea of suicide his strength left him.

His immortality given to him stopped him from killing himself. He had a mission to do and dying was not an option it seemed.

At one time, Ender traveled to the Fairy King Forest and encountered Harlequin and his sister. Ender had many years to learn how to hide his demonic energy to only be seen as a weird creature, so over time, both accepted him inside.

Everything was good for a time but that changed when Harlequin's best friend Helbram was captured by a human and then went on a killing spree. Harlequin left to find his friend, leaving his sister Elaine and Ender to watch the Fountain of Youth.

Ender guarded the Fountain for some years but eventually grew bored and left to find Harlequin. He eventually met him at the time when he regained his memories and saw the fight between Harlequin and Helbram, ending with the latter's death.

Harlequin erases the memories of Diana who nurtured Harlequin during his time with memory loss but when he saw Ender he froze.

"So, what are you going to do now, Harlequin? You killed your best friend and erased the memory of this little girl. And then I came and saw everything you have done," Ender asked, smiling at the Fairy King.

Harlequin looked at the demon sadly: "I am sorry, but I don't want anyone to see what I have done. It is a sin I have to bear alone." He activated his magic and tried to use it on Ender. Unfortunately, the commandment of cowardice repelled it and instead of Ender forgetting about the event, Harlequin forgot about Ender.

Ender seeing that Harlequin forgot about him because of his commandment took Diana to the other Giants before running away not wanting to get attached to the little girl.

After dropping Diana, he returned to Elaine. Elaine asked about her brothers whereabout but Ender lied, saying he never encountered him.

Time again flew by as Ender lived with Elaine. Elaine, who was not believing Ender, tried to see through Enders' thoughts, but she found out that she only heard her own.

Although both lived together, no one had any relationships further than just guardians. Elaine, as she didn't know what feelings really were and Ender who always held his distance as he had only one love. During his time in the forest, Ender experimented with his teleportation.

He discovered that his teleportation worked with jumping fast between two worlds. The void as Ender called it was the dimension he could see for a fraction of a second during his teleportation.

Having all the time he needed, Ender found out more about himself. He could not only teleport himself but also objects. Ender had to concentrate really hard to move a single leaf but over time he could move larger things.

As Ender worked to perfect his technique, time went by in a flick.

One time his teleportation ended up in Liones.

Kingdom of Liones

"Brother, help, there is a black figure in my room," screamed a girl. A door opened and two persons came through.

'I still can't believe that this happens. I am certain I did not want to be here,' thought Ender as he clutched his head.

"Who are you?" asked the silver-haired boy. Ender turned and to his surprise, he met a living being that he knew from before. It was Gowther or rather the doll Gowther created.

Ender bowed: "My name is Ender and I am sorry that I startled you. I did not want to come here."

Gowther was the first to speak. "Is that you, Ender?" Bartra and Nadja looked at Gowther. "You know him, Gowther?" Gowther nodded. "I have met him only shortly. He is a demon from many years ago." Ender facepalmed. Telling humans that he was a demon has never ended well.

Nadja saw the face Ender made and smiled: "You believe we will dislike you because you are a demon right, Ender? My brother and I don't discriminate against other races. Even Gowther is a doll. So don't be afraid but tell me, Ender, how do you know Gowther?"

Ender explained how he knew the man who created Gowther and after the story, Bartra promised to keep Ender's appearance a secret. One day Ender came to Bartra.

"Greetings, Ender, why have you come to see me?" asked Bartra. Ender smiled: "I want to talk with you about your ability to see the future."

Bartra was taken aback. He did not expect Ender to ask him about the future. "Relax, I don't want anything to know what you saw. I just want you to promise me one thing." Bartra nodded: "What is it?"

"If you ever meet someone named Meliodas or Merlin, please don't tell them about me. I can not force you to do so but I beg you as a friend to keep quiet. Would you be so kind and fulfill my wish?" Bartra thought for a second and smiled: "Sure Ender. I will keep my promise."

Ender then left to guard the fountain again.

It surprised Ender as he heard a shout coming from the Fountain of Youth. Teleporting there he saw Elaine looking into the forest. "What happened?" asked Ender. Elaine looked at him: "A human came to the forest and tried to steal the Fountain of Youth. He is probably dead so you don't have to be concerned."

Now one very important thing to consider was Ender's memory. During all those times he had interaction with the people he didn't know them.

Someone like Ender who lived for over a thousand years, seeing so much pain and suffering, had done something incredible.

Ender closed up his memories of being a human in the back of his brain to lessen the grief he felt all the time, but it had unforeseen consequences.

Doing so resulted in him forgetting about the anime Seven Deadly Sins and the important characters. The only things that let him stay human in mind were the belief of pacifism and his love for Melascula. Ender, neither knew about Harlequin being King nor Diana or Elaine, being the lover of Ban. Not even the doll Gowther brought Ender's memories back.

So he just shrugged not remembering Ban. He walked up next to Elaine as both sat on a tree watching the forest. It was a voice that brought both of them back to reality: "Man this tree is big. Climbing it the second time doesn't make it any easier."

Ender looked at Ban and something in his mind tried to ring but Ender dismissed it. Ban looked at Ender seeing a new face: "So you are the guardian of the Fountain, right black stick?" Ender had a tick mark on his head but just shook his head: "No, you stupid thief. I am just a resident of the forest."

Pointing at Elaine. "She is the guardian and you, my friend, got beaten by a child." Ban went to Elaine and looked down on her: "She is the guardian? Don't make me laugh. A child cannot protect something so precious." It annoyed Elaine being called a child, so she did the right thing.

She attacked Ender with her wind magic. Ban looked dumb as he saw the child using her magic on the black stick, but then he felt flying again.

"Hey, don't use me to power up your attacks," cried Ender.

"Shut up. I can't hit you with it, so at least I can annoy you and now he is gone," said Elaine.

Ender rose an imaginary eyebrow. "Are you sure, because I can hear him singing again?"

Ban was back again. "Man, that was a strong breeze. So please give me my immortality." Elain looked dumbfounded while Ender started to laugh. "Who are you not dead? You fell many hundreds of meters down," asked Elaine. Ban just shrugged while Ender muttered a word he didn't know existed: "Plot armor?"

"Well, that was all fun but I want to have the cup, thank you." Ban took his nunchakus and stole the cup. Before he could drink it vanished and was back at its place.

"Huh?"

Elaine looked at Ender, who just nodded as he used his new ability to get the cup. Elaine was sure that Ender would never drink it as she once asked him if he would but he denied it, telling her that he did not need it. Further questioning and mind-reading resulted in failure.

"You can't just take this cup and drink it. Without it, the forest would die!" shouted Elaine at the thief.

"Oh, ok then. If it is like that I won't do it," said Ban as he looked down. Elaine, as well as Ender, just looked at him not believing a single word.

Elaine used her ability to read his mind and was shocked to see that he wasn't lying.

And so time flew by.

Ban got back and brought Elaine a book, and he started reading her stories about humans. Ender watched them both being happy. He was not jealous of Ban having found the love of his life, but sorrow that he couldn't be like the thief right now.

It was random but on one day Ender remembered who Ban really was. "How could I forget about him? He was one of the Sins," muttered Ender.

"What is wrong Ender?" asked Ban.

During his stay with Ender and Elaine, Ban started to be friends with Ender. It started when Ban tried to steal with his ability something on Ender but instead became naked. Ender laughed and Elaine blushed at the failed attempted.

When Ban asked Ender the question, they heard a roar. 'You have got to be kidding me. I remember him and now this guy comes,' cursed the Enderman. All three of them saw a red monster walking to the main tree. "What the hell is that?" asked Ban. "A demon, also known as a red demon," answered Ender. "But that is impossible. They should be sealed away in the last Holy War," said Elaine.

Ender shook his head: "Oh Elaine, you are wrong. Not all demons were sealed away. Some just survived. One even wanted to be sealed away to be with his loved one, but something prevented it."

Elaine's eyes widened as she realized what Ender had said. "Are you a demon, Ender?"

Ban and Elaine looked at Ender shocked. The Enderman has a sad smile in his face. "And that is why I didn't want to tell you about my race. Well, I will try my best to handle the demon. Protect the Fountain of Youth." Ender teleported to the red demon.

"No, Ender wait. I didn't mean it like that," shouted Elaine, but Ender didn't hear it.

Ender teleported in front of the demon and shouted: "Hey, you big, fat, ugly thing, try to hit me if you dare!" Ender saw to his surprise that the red demon didn't even bat an eye on him. 'Damm this guy thinks I am on his side and my power level so weak I can't do anything.' Then Ban took the demons' heart.

"No Ban, what have you done!" Ender shouted at his friend's foolishness. "I killed it. Took his heart. Took his life." Elaine tried to run to Ban to tell him that demons had more than one heart but she was too late to warn him.

The demon pierced Elaine's body and part of Ban's. "Ender, please help me," said Ban as he tried to stay conscious. Ender watched in horror, remembering the past. He started to hyperventilate and walk to Ban, thinking of a way to heal him.

But to his horror, Ender could not move any further.

It happened again. Ender knew this feeling all too well. It was something he would always remember.

The curse activated.

It forced him to go, unable to help his newfound friends. "I am sorry Ban, Elaine. I know that everything will be fine. I am so sorry, but I am a coward. My name was and always will be forever, Ender the coward. Goodbye." With that Ender teleported away, trying to forget the horror he remembered.

And another one. I tell you it is difficult to write this when you also read the manga and just think when will I even finish this Fanfiction.
