Vanya Village

The rest of the ride was uneventful until Meliodas gives me and Elizabeth the tavern uniform. While I question how he has two perfectly sized outfits prepared for us, Elizabeth changes in the room upstairs.

Once Elizabeth comes downstairs I go upstairs while Meliodas does their thing.

Getting the outfit on I smack my head as I realise that this outfit doesn't hide my sin mark or my literal giant mouth. I cover said Parts with the scarf once again And put the rest of the scarf around my mouth and neck.

Coming down the stairs Hawk mom stops causing me to start to fall before I catch myself giving my face a good 2 inches above the ground.

"Hey we're here, this is our first wellspring of information welcome to Vanya village."

Meliodas takes Elizabeth down while I bring down a trembling Hawk. "Why did you make me go with the one person that said they might eat me!"

We watch as Hawk mamma sets up base then head down the hill as we walk Meliodas talks. "I usually buy all my liquor wherever I can find it but Vanya's stuff is special. Best water you can find in this village and with the gruit growing down by the river it's used to brew Vanya Al. this place has fans far and wide."

"Or at least it used to." hawk pipes in as we cross the barren bridge. "Now those famous waters of theirs are bone dry."

"Look, those herbs along the bank are dead." Elizabeth says.

"What's going on?" Meliodas says.

As we all head into the town a flock of people are seen outside in the square.

"Wow, just look at all the people here out in the square. Think it's some kind of festival?"

Meliodas walks up to one of the villagers. "Hey what's up you guys.

"Oh it's the barkeep." Villager 1

"What's this festival today for?"

"Huh does this look like a damn festival to you! Were trying to pull out a sword a holy knight jabbed into the ground!" Villager 2

"They stuck it in the ground? Why would they do that?" Meliodas asks.

Suddenly an elderly man appears behind us surprising all of us at once. "Days ago a holy knight brought his wrath down upon us. He infused his sword with mana, pierced the ground and locked away the water under our village." the elder says.

"A holy knight, Vayel, do you think that it might be that man that you defeated the other day."

I'm a bit shocked to be talked to due to the plot seeming to be set in stone but I respond nonetheless. "I really doubt it. These guys are still a bit surprised by this sword so it must have happened recently and I doubt Twigo was going as fast as hawk moma towards our tavern randomly."

"Oh I guess that does make sense."Elizabeth says.

As we continue to talk a bratty kid walks by us.
