Basically, this next arc seems to be centered around Ban. Chapter 18 has him getting attacked by some kid with a pitchfork (apparently he thought he was trying to attack his sister), but it's revealed that Ban can regenerate his wounds..... in fact, he's known as "Ban the Undead" (insert zombie/vampire theory here
). However, shortly after his pitchfork wound heals, he receives another one..... this one coming from his old comrade, the Sin of Sloth, King....!!!!
In the next chapter, Ban and King fight, though Ban doesn't realize who he's fighting against. But what's really interesting is that we learn a bit about the Sin of Greed's past. Apparently, King says Ban was responsible for the death of a lady saint in the past. Soon enough, Ban starts to get real serious and is prepared to fire off some super attack before Meliodas and Diane interrupt the fight. The both of them recognize King, despite his current appearance being very much different from his past self (and trust me, it's a radical difference, indeed!
). King runs away, and it seems that the part must now pursue him at the "City of the Dead".....
Geez, I wonder if King is truly an enemy now? Ban's fight with him was a bit short, but pretty darned intense nonetheless. And I do admit that it would make a bit of an interesting twist for one or two of the sins to be traitors......
