Capítulo 28: Chapter 28 : Baste Dungeon
"Nanatsu no Taizai World."
"Where is this?" - Arata murmured, and he opened his eyes to find himself in a dimly lit place.
The air was humid, the walls covered in mold and moss, and a thick stench of blood filled the air.
[This place is the Baste Dungeon]
"Dungeon? Why am I in a place like this?" - Arata asked, puzzled, as he tried to move his body, only to find it restrained by chains on his hands and feet.

Arata felt as if he was watching a video and soon understood the reason for his presence here.
'The system is amazing,' thought Arata, clenching his fist as he felt an immense power coursing through his body.
Arata's body was strengthened, and he experienced a strength he had never felt before.
Although it was only a fraction of his magical power, his body was weak and couldn't handle that much power. Therefore, the system utilized the chaotic energy in the Gate and his body's powers.
Currently, Arata had 3,000 points in all his stats.
Though it didn't compare to the strength of the Ten Commandments and Meliodas at their peak, it was still significant for now.
And Arata wasn't worried because his skill would make him strong enough to confront the Ten Commandments soon.
His skill allowed him to become 0.1% stronger per hour while exposed to moonlight, granting him 3 stat points per hour.
It seemed he was imprisoned here due to the sin of the Holy Knights, who mistook him for the fox sin of Greed, Undead Ban, because he was Immortal.
Even after they found the real Ban, they continued to torture Arata, trying to understand why he was Immortal.
"Have you woken up?" - asked a familiar voice, and Arata recognized it as his cellmate.
"Good morning, Ban," said Arata, looking at Ban, who had already been freed from his chains and now sported a long beard. "What are you up to?"
"I'm getting out of here," said Ban, stretching his stiff body. "It seems the Captain has come looking for me."
"What will you do then?" asked Ban, looking at the person he had shared the cell with for years.
'Shiro, Takiko, are you here?' - Arata asked in his mind and made a face as if he was contemplating what to do.
'We are here, Master' - x 2
'That's good,' Arata felt relieved that they were safe - 'Stay in spirit form for a while.'
'As you order, Master' - x 2.
"I'll go with you," said Arata, easily breaking the chains and getting up. "I'm curious to see The Seven Deadly Sins, and I want to try the sake you told me about."
"Really? Then let's go," said Ban with excitement evident on his face at the mention of sake.
Boom!
Ban kicked the cell door, sending it flying despite its thickness.
"What's going on?!" - one of the soldiers guarding the cell exclaimed, feeling scared as the door flew off.
"I almost forgot what it feels like to walk," Ban said, walking out of the cell.
"You rascal, how did you escape the dungeon?" A soldier asked, placing his hand on his sword nervously.
"Can't you tell just by looking?" - asked Ban, bewildered, as he removed the iron stake from his foot and explained - "I kicked the door."
"I don't think they believe you," said Arata, walking out behind Ban, dressed in the armor from the world of Owari no Seraph.
"Where did you get these clothes?" Ban asked, ignoring the presence of soldiers pointing their swords at him.
"I found them lying in the dungeon," Arata lied without hesitation, choosing not to reveal that he retrieved them from the Inventory System.
"What's all the commotion?" A voice asked, followed by a knight in fairly decent armor.
"Jericho-sama!" - one of the soldiers exclaimed, feeling relieved upon seeing a sacred knight apprentice coming to support them.
"The Fox's Sin of Greed, Ban," Jericho said, looking at Ban and then looking at Arata - "Who are you?"
"..." - Arata didn't say anything and looked at Jericho with pity because he knew Ban would likely strip her naked.
"The name of just a prisoner doesn't matter," said Jericho, giving up on knowing Arata's name but feeling puzzled by his appearance. She then ordered Ban and Arata, "I don't know how you got out, but return to your cell at once."
"Oh, Brat," said Ban, stroking his beard with a smug grin, "is that how you talk to a hero?"
"Are you calling me a Holy Knight apprentice 'brat'?" Jericho said, staring at Ban sharply.
"You're there, so go tell Golgius-sama," Jericho said, looking at the soldiers. "The prisoners attempted to escape and resisted arrest, so Jericho had no choice but to kill them."
"Haha," Arata burst out laughing when he heard Jericho speaking to Ban while patting his back, "Did you hear that? She wants to kill us! Haha-ha-ha-ha!"
"Haha-ha-ha," Ban joined Arata, and they laughed at Jericho, whose face turned red with shame and anger.
"What's so funny?" Jericho asked angrily, drawing her sword and lunging at Ban, who was closer to her.
"Arrrrr!!" - Ban let out a fake scream of pain as he dodged all of Jericho's blows, causing her to cut his hair and beard while missing.
After hearing Ban's scream of pain, Jericho didn't bother looking at him and rushed to kill Arata.
"It's a good way to check the system's method of awakening my magical power," murmured Arata and easily dodged Jericho's attack, not wanting to ruin his clothes, and grabbed her by the neck.
"What!?" - Jericho was surprised when an unknown prisoner dodged all her attacks, but there was something that surprised her even more - "You bastard, are you stealing my magical power!?"
Indeed, the system had instructed him to awaken his magical power by absorbing other people's magical power.

"Is that all?" - Arata mumbled, not paying attention to Jericho's anger, who was heard muttering - "Seriously, a Holy Knight apprentice is too weak."
"You rascal!" Jericho shouted, and her scream consumed all the strength she could muster.
"Sorry, but sleep for a while," said Arata, tightening his grip on Jericho's neck, causing her to pass out from lack of air.
"Shall we go?" - said Arata, looking at Ban, who had incapacitated the soldiers who tried to sneak up on him.
"Wait a minute," Ban said and approached Jericho, wanting to take off her armor, but Arata stopped him - "What's up?"
"Forget about the armor; it doesn't fit your size," replied Arata in responseto Ban's bewilderment.
"..." - Ban stared at the armor and seemed to really like it, but after looking closely, he saw that it was too small - "Cheh, I really liked that armor a little bit."
"Let's go," said Ban, putting his hands in his trouser pockets and walking out of the prison.
Ban knew the way well because he would occasionally run away to go to the Fairy King's Forest to offer his blood.
"Sign in," said Arata, walking behind Ban with his hands behind his head.
