Home/Domain: Fairy King’s Forest

King has two main forms: a small boy and a round, heavyset adult man.

His “fat man” form is a formal, tensioned disguise created through a fairy transformation ability and is considered formal wear.

His true form is the youthful, small-bodied fairy boy.

When he first appears as a Seven Deadly Sins member, he does not yet have wings.

After reflecting his own “Status Promotion” off Meliodas’s “Full Counter,” he feels pain in his back, hinting at wings about to grow.

After passing the trial of Gloxinia and Drole, small wings sprout from his back.

Gloxinia notes that even with such small wings King can handle the Spirit Spear as skillfully as he does.

Because of this, Gloxinia expects that once King’s wings fully develop, he will become the strongest Fairy King in history.

During the battle against Mael, King’s power finally awakens completely.

His body becomes more mature, his wings evolve into large, butterfly-like wings, and his Spirit Spear forms become more powerful and can be manifested and controlled in multiple forms at once.

When he exhausts his magic, his appearance returns to the boy form with only small, newly grown wings.

Among The Seven Deadly Sins, King is relatively sensible and level-headed.

He shows proper respect toward royalty such as Elizabeth Liones and Arthur Pendragon.

Because many of his comrades are eccentric, King often acts as the straight man and commentator to their antics.

His true strength manifests when he is fighting for someone else, and his power surges most when he is protecting loved ones.

King can read hearts and sense emotions, a trait he shares with Elaine.

He carries deep guilt about past failures and is haunted by the burden of his role as Fairy King.

He harbors strong feelings for Diane but struggles to express them honestly due to painful history and emotional scars.

Fairy King and the Sin of Sloth

King was chosen by the Sacred Tree of the Fairy Realm as its absolute guardian.

Because of this, he inherited the name “King” and became the third Fairy King.

He is feared and respected as the protector of the Fairy King’s Forest and the fairies.

However, his greatest failure is tied to his sin of Sloth.

His official crime is “neglecting to prevent the massacre of humans carried out by a single fairy, despite his duty as Fairy King.”

This neglect and failure to act against his own kin’s atrocities became the root of his Grizzly Sin of Sloth.

The Tragedy with Helbram and Imprisonment

Around 700 years before the main story, a group of fairies was abducted by humans.

King left the Forest of the Sacred Tree to rescue them but was ambushed, gravely wounded, and lost his memory.

While King wandered, his fellow fairy Helbram became consumed by hatred and began hunting and massacring humans in revenge.

King eventually defeated Helbram without realizing the full context, but the responsibility for the overall tragedy fell on him as Fairy King.

As a result, King accepted a thousand-year imprisonment as punishment.

During this long sentence, his guilt and sense of duty as Fairy King only deepened.

Time with Diane

After losing his memory but before fully regaining it, King was cared for by Diane.

They spent around 500 years together, building a deep but fragile bond.

When the time came for him to submit to his punishment, King erased Diane’s memories of him.

He did this to spare her the pain and to shoulder his burden alone, which later became one of his greatest emotional regrets.

After the Seven Deadly Sins Disband

Ten years before the main story, The Seven Deadly Sins were framed and dispersed.

After that, King returned to his homeland and found the Fairy King’s Forest burned to ruins.

He also learned that his younger sister Elaine had been killed.

Believing Ban responsible, King attempted to take revenge on him.

In the Land of the Dead, Elaine’s spirit intervened and persuaded King to forgive Ban.

They reconciled, and King discovered that Meliodas was journeying with Elizabeth Liones.

King then rejoined Meliodas and the others and resumed his role as a member of The Seven Deadly Sins.

Confrontation with Helbram

At Vaizel, King encountered his supposedly dead friend Helbram once again.

Helbram had been revived, and King was forced to face the weight of their long, tragic connection.

King rushed ahead to the kingdom to save Diane, who was in grave danger.

He fought Helbram while protecting Diane and their allies, defeating Helbram once.

However, because of Hendrickson’s interference, Helbram and King were forced into a third deadly confrontation.

Helbram asked King to kill him, and King, in deep sorrow, granted his wish.

After the liberation of the kingdom, King traveled with Ban for a time.

He eventually returned to the Fairy King’s Forest but was soon forced back into action.

Return to the Fairy King’s Forest and Albion

In the Fairy King’s Forest, King faced an attack by Albion, a powerful demon weapon.

He defeated Albion, demonstrating how far his strength and mastery over the Spirit Spear had advanced.

After this, King returned to The Seven Deadly Sins to rejoin their battle lines against the Demon Clan.

Because of Albion and similar experiences, his hatred toward demons intensified.

This led to frequent clashes with Meliodas, who has deep ties to the Demon Clan.

After undergoing the trial of Gloxinia and Drole, King learned about Meliodas’s past and the true nature of his struggle, which allowed them to reconcile.

Role in the Holy War

During the Holy War, Elizabeth Liones was abducted by Estarossa.

King joined forces with Derieri and others to pursue Estarossa.

There they discovered Estarossa’s true identity as Mael of the Four Archangels.

Mael, corrupted by stolen Commandments, overwhelmed them with immense power.

Despite the hopeless situation, King refused to give up and continued to fight.

When Mael absorbed four Commandments and reached a terrifying level, King was pushed to the brink.

At that moment, King remembered all the important people he wanted to protect—Elaine, Ban, Diane, his comrades, and his people.

This emotional surge triggered his full awakening as Fairy King, completely transforming his wings and amplifying his Spirit Spear.

Empowered by this awakening, King overwhelmed Mael and turned the tide of battle.

Later he used his Sacred Treasure to support Merlin and the others from afar, striking enemies across great distances.

He also fought alongside his comrades to drive out the Demon King, who had possessed Meliodas.

Afterward, he stood with the group again against the Demon King when he possessed Zeldris, helping bring the conflict to a final end.

Relationships and Aftermath

During the final battles against the Demon King possessing Zeldris, King proposed to Diane.

After all the crises were resolved, King and Diane returned together to the Fairy King’s Forest.

With Elaine and Ban eventually marrying, King became Ban’s brother-in-law.

King continued his duties as Fairy King, now supported by his partner Diane and reconciled with both his past and his guilt.

General Capabilities

Since before his days as a Holy Knight, King possessed immense magical power.

His fighting style relies heavily on magic and mobility rather than physical strength.

King can levitate and fly, granting him excellent aerial maneuverability.

By contrast, his raw physical abilities are extremely low; he is almost physically frail without magic.

He can also craft and manipulate clothing using materials and techniques he learned from humans.

His fine control over plant life and spiritual matter is unparalleled among fairies.

Main Magic: Disaster

King’s primary magic is called Disaster.

This magic accelerates and amplifies the “state” of anything it targets.

He can promote growth in plants, causing them to flourish rapidly.

At the same time, he can worsen wounds, poisons, tumors, and similar harmful conditions, turning small injuries into life-threatening damage.

Disaster reflects the dual role of the Fairy King: both nurturing plant life and pruning it.

Because of its nature, it perfectly synergizes with the power of the Sacred Tree and the Spirit Spear born from it.

Status Promotion

Status Promotion is a specific application of Disaster.

It accelerates negative conditions such as injuries, tumors, or toxins.

When King clashed with Meliodas, he used this power to enlarge a wound on Meliodas’s shoulder.

Its effectiveness makes it both a terrifying offensive tool and a precise way to influence living matter.

Condense Power

Condense Power concentrates the moisture of nearby trees into a single, compressed burst.

The resulting projectile strikes with force comparable to an iron ball, making it a powerful mid-range attack.

Spirit Spear Chastiefol

King’s Sacred Treasure is the Spirit Spear Chastiefol.

It is crafted from the Sacred Tree of the Fairy Realm and possesses a hardness surpassing steel.

Because Chastiefol is made from the Sacred Tree, it retains mysterious properties and regenerative abilities.

Even if the spear is broken in half, it can quickly regenerate.

By using Disaster, King can draw out all of Chastiefol’s latent traits.

Chastiefol can change into multiple forms, called “forms,” each with different abilities for offense, defense, and support.

When King releases its full power, Chastiefol takes the form of True Spirit Spear Chastiefol.

In this state, King’s combat class skyrockets and each form’s performance is greatly enhanced, though the energy cost also increases.

After completing Gloxinia’s trial, King became able to use the unleashed form of Chastiefol without risk or severe consumption.

During his battle with Mael, King’s power fully awakened, allowing him to use an even stronger awakened state.

In this awakened state, Chastiefol’s forms become more powerful and larger.

King can also manifest and control multiple forms simultaneously, combining offense, defense, and support at the same time.

First Form: Spirit Spear

The First Form: Spirit Spear is the standard spear shape of Chastiefol.

In its normal state, it is a simple floating spear under King’s control.

When King releases his Sacred Treasure, the spear grows several times larger.

In this amplified state, he once destroyed an Albion in a single strike.

In the awakened state, the spear is even larger and more imposing than in the release form.

Its destructive power becomes enormous, capable of piercing and crushing large enemies with ease.

Flying Bee

Flying Bee uses the First Form at extremely high speed.

King manipulates the spear to dart around like a swarm of deadly bees, slashing opponents repeatedly.

Tyrant Tempest

Tyrant Tempest involves spinning the released Spirit Spear at high speed.

The rotating spear creates a storm of blades that slices enemies to pieces within its reach.

Second Form: Guardian

The Second Form: Guardian transforms Chastiefol into a giant bear-shaped creature, resembling a stuffed toy.

Its true nature is the moss growing on the Sacred Tree, shaped into a gigantic protector.

The moss-based body absorbs and deflects many types of attacks.

Because it holds a lot of water, Guardian has very high resistance to fire but is more vulnerable to freezing and ice attacks.

When King releases Chastiefol’s power, Guardian grows to roughly Diane’s size.

Its strength, durability, and impact are all greatly increased in this form.

In the awakened state, Guardian gains eight arms.

This multi-armed version can attack, guard, and shield multiple angles at once.

Third Form: Fossilization

The Third Form: Fossilization transforms the spear into a double-pronged, halberd-like weapon.

Anything that touches the blade begins to turn to stone.

The petrification starts from the point of contact.

If King stabs an opponent, the stone spreads outward from the wound, potentially immobilizing them.

Fourth Form: Sunflower

The Fourth Form: Sunflower manifests a gigantic flower like those blooming around the Sacred Tree.

This flower can appear on the battlefield under King’s control.

From its petals, it fires highly destructive beams of light.

In the awakened state, these beams become even more powerful, capable of devastating large areas.

Fifth Form: Increase

The Fifth Form: Increase creates countless spear tips.

Each tip can float independently and be directed at will.

King can use these as ranged projectiles, firing them in volleys.

He can also arrange them around himself or allies to form a defensive barrier.

In the released state, each individual spear is about the size of King’s body.

In his awakened state, the spears become even larger and their shape shifts closer to double-edged swords.

Fire with Fire

Fire with Fire is a technique using the Fifth Form’s massed spears.

King rains down the countless spear blades from above, creating a storm of falling blades that tears through enemies.

Sixth Form: Yggdra Armor

The Sixth Form: Yggdra Armor covers King’s entire body in armor made from the Sacred Tree.

The armor includes gauntlets equipped with sword-like blades.

This form focuses on close combat, slashing enemies with arm-mounted blades.

It offers strong defense while allowing King to use martial-arts-style techniques.

Because it protects his frail body and boosts his melee ability, this form is highly versatile.

Unlike more static forms, Yggdra Armor is suited for mobile fighting and combining techniques.

Seventh Form: Luminosity

The Seventh Form: Luminosity appears as a luminous, planet-like sphere with a ring, similar to Saturn.

It shines on its own, even without an external light source.

King can use this form as a portable light source in dark places.

It is more of a utility and support form than a direct combat weapon.

Eighth Form: Pollen Garden

The Eighth Form: Pollen Garden creates a shell-like barrier that encloses targets.

This barrier is a powerful defensive dome meant to protect whoever is inside.

Inside the barrier, pollen emitted from the Sacred Tree has healing properties.

While it takes years or even centuries to fully heal serious wounds, the pain of injuries is greatly soothed.

In the awakened state, Pollen Garden’s durability increases dramatically.

It is strong enough to withstand attacks from Mael after he absorbed four Commandments, demonstrating extreme defensive capability.

Celestial Arrow

Celestial Arrow is a powerful combination technique with Gowther.

Gowther forms a bow from his magic, and King uses Chastiefol as the arrow.

When fired, the attack deals massive damage to both the body and the mind of the target.

It is especially effective against opponents whose mental state or spiritual core can be disrupted.

Trinity Attack: High-Tension Rush

Trinity Attack: High-Tension Rush is a three-person combination technique by King, Diane, and Gowther.

Gowther activates his illusion field, Illusion Garden, to create countless copies of King.

At the same time, Diane uses Drole’s Dance to boost King’s combat class and power.

Empowered and multiplied, King then unleashes a furious barrage of attacks using Yggdra Armor, striking the enemy from all directions.
