Ch 37-Damned Fox

Last time in with original Meliodas------

[Understood, so for now, we wait for the others I guess]

"Yup, that the pla-" Before Meliodas could finish his words,a knock on the door resounded in the room.

[Meliodas!] said Merlin in worry.

"I know, scan quickly and see who it is" Said Meliodas as he reached inside his coat for [Judgemet Of Shamash], Pointing it to the door as he was absolutely ready to pull the trigger. At the same time, Merlin Started to scan who was behind the door.

[Um it's an adepti] he confirmed Meiodas.

"Adepti?, Really?"

[Yes, she has white hair, blue eyes, and the tail and ears of a fox]

'White hair, fox, blue eyes. there is only a few characters i remember like that'

going close to the door with his gun still in hand, he opened it-

--------------

'Beautiful' was what Meliodas thought.

She has short white hair with pointy fox ears and 9 tails. Her eyes are a blue color with extra red makeup. Attire wise she wears a black top with a black belt below her chest.

'So it's Kaga from Azur Lane,. isn't she Japanese, why isn't she in Inazuma instead of Liyue' wondered Meliodas.

"Greetings Mr. Meliodas," she said with a small bow.

snapping out of his thoughts he narrowed his eyes at her and held out his weapon in front of her. though Kaga did not flinch at all.

"Now who are you and how do you know my name!" Asked meliodas with a cold tone.

seeing Meliodase's Hostilness she said "No need to be hostile Mr. Meliodas I am merely here to send a message from my beloved sister. And I just asked the front desk for your name and they gave it to me"

'Asked my ass, you probably bribed them. And by sister, I'm sure that she is talking about Akagi'

"I see if that is the case then what is the message" Said Meliodas with a still hostile tone.

Meliodas won't trust whatever this woman says to him, but hearing what she has to say won't hurt and it might help to find out their intentions.

"My sister would like to speak with you, if you would like I could come by tomorro-" Before she could finish Meliodas cut her off and said.

"No, il see her right now, Let get this over with. just give me a sec" Meliodas said as he closed the door.

After a few minutes, He came out with a different attire than his usual all black clothes and long coat, he had also lef his weapons behind "Alright lead the way"

nodding at him Kaga took him to her sister's place which was at the center of the city.

-------------

20 min later-

Meliodas Kept following her until they reached the heart of the city. Like any place in the Yellow Land, the castle was Chinese-themed in all red and gold though melodies felt that Wukongs Palace was definitely better than this place. though the only difference was that there was a huge tower at the top of the castle.

Meliodas Kept following Kaga through the castle until they finally reached the entrance of a room, opening the door kaga told Meliodas to climb the stairs to the top of the tower.

though suspicious, Meliodas nodded and climbed the tower. while he climbed a certain smell started to strike his nose. 'Smoke? no it's something else'

As he was thinking of what it reminded him of, without noticing he reached the top. opening the sliding door he was greeted with a woman sitting in a chair wile drinking tea and smoking from a pipe at the same time.

Akagi is a very tall and beautiful woman. She has long black hair with pointy fox ears and 9 tails. Her eyes are a fiery red color with extra red makeup to highlight her eyes. Attire wise she wears a white top with a black belt below her chest.

'Wow she's pretty, but Jingliu is better. and that smell must be weed or something, no wonder it smelled familiar.' Meliodas thought inwardly.

"Hm~ is mister Meliodas thinking of something rude perhaps" she said with a smile.

snapign out of his thought once again he started to swea tnervousy at her accurate womans sixth sense. "N-no of course not *Cough* *Cough*, anyways why have you called me here miss..."

"Akagi, you may call me Akagi, and for why i have called you here for is... well i believe it is best if you sit down with me" she said with a smile.

Meliodas also smiled back but under that smile he was already preparing to shove his three thousand Matchlocks down her throat. he could also sense great amounts of Adpetal and Cursed Enegy coming from her.

What surprised him the most was her large amounts of Cursed energy. Usually people wouldn't be able to control Cursed energy without some sort of cursed tool or a curse itself like rika, and the ones that can like Meliodas are very few in the land of teyvat.

Sitiing down next to her on the table she spoke. "Would you like some tea, this is some of my favorite green tea imported from the purple land~" she offered.

"Yes i would like some" Meliodas said a he accepted her offer.

Pouring a cup for him akagi handed over the tea and meliodas started drinking alongside her.

'Hm~ its good, reminds me of boba milk tea. Wish i could drink some right now' (Meliodas)

"What do you think of the city?" She asked.

"Hm?" hearing this Melodas became confused at her sudden question.

Thinking about it for a bit he answered "Its... sad"

"Sad?" (Akagi)

"Yes its sad, though the inside of the city might be all nice and stuff, the amount of people that live in the outskirts of the city slums are a lot. I am already aware that you cant save everybod but its quite the sad sight. There is also a lot of hidden slave auctions around your city that i have found" (Meliodas)

"... I see, although i can agree on that i also believe that the city is a beautifull place. my sister Amagi lived building this whole city and died protecting it. There use to be a lot of people that were after her city back few years ago, Merchants and nobles from around the yellow land gathered together and assaulted the city in order to claim it. But she managed to kill them all but... she went down with them in the end" Said Akagi with a sad face.

"My sorry for your loss, although i don't know the feeling of losing a family member that way, i can tell that she cared about this place and about all of you if she was wiling to die like that"

Smiling kindly at him she responded "thank you for your kind words, indeed she was a person who cared deeply about this city, and that's why when i inherited the city when she died, i to wanted to do the same."

suddenly her tone sounded serious "But one thing that i realized after her death is that money cant save you in the front of true power. that why one day i suddenly smelled the scent of a dragon~"

'Fuck so she was the one that was looking at us, she noticed the scent of Kanna and rex, not the aura or appearance that i concealed, i screwed up' thought meliodas.

"when i smelled the scent of them i was surprised to find two little hatchling being carried by a human, originally i was just curious but then it struck me. Wouldnt the city become safe if i had the power of two dragons~, and children at that so it be easy to raise them into loving the city to the point that they would lay down their lives for it~"

*Boom*

A sudden burst of [Conquerors haki] came out rushing from Meliodas after hearing her last words.

"so you bitch whant to take them to become the city guard dogs huh?, sorry but i ain't giving it to you" Melidas said with a dark tone.

On the other side Akagi felt the pressure and realized that she greatly understimated the man in front of her. the pressure that he emited made her almost kneel to the floor... almost that is~

*Cough*

Meliodases sudden bust of [Conquerors Haki] stoped as he coughed out blood and kneeled on the foor.

his body started to burn all over, and his veins started to feel like they would explode.

looking up to the smiling Akagi he asked with a furious face. "What the fuck did you do!"

"Oh nothing much, that stuff that i was smoking is a bit... pisosnous if taken in large amounts, though it isn't to myself as i have a resistance to it~" (Akagi)

Hearing her words Meliodas realized that he was careless, from the beginning he shouldn't have had started inhaling random stuff from a possible enmeies home.

"Now then its a pity that you have to die, your quite handsome and quite powerful, but i really need those dragon children in your hand so bye bye~" Saying those words a smile appeared on her face. reaching out behind her she pulled out a large knife that was hidden inside her clothes.

Meliodas panicked and started crawling towards the balcony window. and behind him Akagi just kept on smiling while slowly walking towards Meliodases slowly dying body.

Finally reaching the outside balcony Meliodas started to cough out even bigger amounts of blood and his sight started to dim, reaching out his hand he supported himslef up with the wooden railing and looked at Akagi with a scornfully look.

"My~ please Meliodas don't look at me that way. l promises il make it painless, after all your death is for the city"

"Oh don't worry i not mad at you, I'm mad that i cant see your bitch ass get knoked out with my vision turning dimer and dimer"

Hearing His worst Akag became confused.

beating me?, in that state?, don't make me laugh.

"Heh asta la vista bitch" said Meliodas as he finally died

"Asta la vista?" repeated akagi with confuson. She was werided out at how smug Meliodas looked even at his death and she also didn't know what 'Asta La Vista' meant.

*Poof*

suddenly the body of meliodas Poofed into smoke and disapeared.

'What! a clone but how?, his clone felt real and i didn't sense it having some sort of outside connection?!" she though as she panicked.

*Whistle*

A sudden wistle sounded from affar, hearing this Akagis danger sense activated and breley dodged the arrow that was aimed at her head. though when she did.

*Splat*

"AHHRGH" she screamed as she felt her shoulder be pierced by a bullet.

kneeling on the floor she felt with her instinct that she was in danger again and jumped out the tower balcony dodging bullets and arrows that were aimed at her.

"Damit! Meliodas, so you planned before this huh?, don't worry il find you and retrieve those dragons" she said with a determined tone.

reaching the bottom with a boom, the castle was allerted by it and soilder came by to check, What they found was the injured Akagi.

"Hurry up and sound the alarm, capture two dragon children at XXX inn and a long black haired man that was with the two children" She ordered with urgency as the soldiers saluted and spreaded the word out to the other soldiers around the city.

Though she didnt' know that the kids were long gone already from the city.
