"AAHHHHH!!!" Jericho shouted out as the group was suddenly teleported to where Meliodas was.
"Yo!" Rei said as he landed on his feet. Meliodas only grinned while he saw that Rei brought everyone.
Rei looked around and saw that they were already at the entrance of the fighting festival. The commandments have made this entire area into a maze.
'This is where they kill dad and he turns back to his old self with no emotions.' Rei thought while Meliodas was talking to everyone that just arrived.
"What's up Rei? You look like you're thinking of something serious." Meliodas asked looking at Rei.
"Hm? Oh don't worry about it. I'm just gonna go set up a few seals around the place as a fail safe for when things go to shit." Rei said turning back to Meliodas.
"Hmm alright, do you need some help with that?" Meliodas asked offering his help.
"It's fine dad, I got this. Just go to the fighting festival, I'll join you guys after I done this." Rei said as he gave everyone a wave before jumping off.
Making some blood wings, Rei flew as high as he could with the help of the night to camouflage himself. Looking down on the area, Rei started to think up of a seal.
'What do I need....I need a seal to restrain the commandments, a seal to weaken them and a seal to stop the commandments from leaving once they arrive.' Rei thought as he started to make a seal. Flying above the clouds, Rei made sure that no one saw him make the seals, azure energy started to twist into an intricate seal while Rei attacked them to 6 different swords. Waving his hands, Rei sent the 6 swords to 6 different points causing a faint grid of energy to connect each of the sword forming a hexagon.
Rei started to then form more layers to the seals making them more powerful. For every 5 seals that Rei made it would become a magic circle. For every 5 magic circles Rei made he would turn them in a larger ring while he layered more rings below the first ring.
These magic circles gave many benefits to everyone he had registered. From attack increase, defence increase to weakening the enemy who have the magic signal of commandments in their body. Creating one last magic circle to mask away the huge array that he had just created, Rei floated downwards as he had a look at what was happening.
He could see that two of the commandments were about to explain the tournament. Rei suddenly had a grin as he went into divine sage mode. Marking appeared every where on his body as his presence was masked from everyone. Manipulating the water element in the air, Rei redirected the light so he couldn't be seen. Landing behind the two commandments, Rei made a makeshift chair as he make it so that people could see him again.
Gloxinia and Drole, the two commandments, started to explain the rules when Gerheade stepped out from the crowd.
"Nii san...." She said with slight tears in her eyes as she looked at the familiar figure of her brother. Gloxinia paused in shock for a moment before his face turned cold.
"Who are you? I don't know you. My sister died 3000 years ago." He said looking at her.
"You know Gloxinia, you should be more truthful with yourself. She had thought that you died all those years ago." Rei spoke as the two commandments suddenly turned around in slight fear as they didn't even feel Rei approach.
In slight panic, Gloxinia and Drole attacked Rei while he just held both palms out and blocked it easily.
Rei only smiled as he saw the duo panic slightly.
"Since you guys didn't have a choice but to join the commandments I'll spare you." Rei said as he overrided the commandments that the demon king had given the duo. Removing his hands, dark symbols could be seen in Rei's palms while Gloxinia and Drole had pained faces from the commandment being forcefully taken out by Rei using his comprehension of seals.
Gloxinia and Drole collapsed onto their knees as Rei finished extracting the symbols. Gerheade ran over to Gloxinia as she held him softly hoping not to hurt him more.
"I've removed their commandments so they arn't under the demon kings control." Rei said as he jumped down next to a gigantified Diane.
"Let me help you out with this Diane nee san." Rei said while Diane tried to walk back in slight panic. Holding out his palm, a seal could be seen being constructed on Rei's hand. Pushing his hand forward, the seal approached Diane's forehead while she tried to shield herself to no avail.
Daine's eyes shone with clarity as she remembered every thing, even the fact that King had saved her during her childhood which she completely forgot.
"Thank you Rei chan!!!" She shouted as she hugged Rei in her human sized form.
Rei only smiled as he patted her back, Diane then ran over to King preparing to confess when Rei felt the rest of the commandments approach through his seals that he set up.
"Dad!" Rei shouted out.
"I know." Meliodas said frowning.
"You take half I'll take the other?" Rei said as he grinned. Meliodas grinned back as he knew the chances that they had were much bigger with him and Rei working together.
"GUYS! Retreat, the commandments are coming." Meliodas called out as he and Rei jumped to the tallest peak looking towards where the commandments are coming from.
Rei went into Divine sage mode as it took the least amount of mana to sustain since it mostly used natural mana. Meliodas had his dark element appear on his body. Soon the rest of the members of the 10 commandments appeared. Only Galand, Melascula were missing as they were killed. Gloxinia and Drole are no longer members as they never wanted to be one, with Rei removing their commandment they were free from this binding.
"Dad, I know you don't like killing so I'll ask now. Am I allowed to kill the commandments." Rei said giving Meliodas a side glance.
"Yes, but leave Estarossa and Zeldris to me." Meliodas said to which Rei only grinned.
"Shall I take Derieri, Monspeet and Greyroad then." Rei said to which Meliodas nodded.
'Let's get some of these guys into my collection of souls to use.' Rei though about the souls he imprisoned using his Alucard bloodline.
Rei only grinned further when he saw his prey in sight.
"Let the hunt begin dad...." Rei said as he flashed towards his targets.
