Transcription: "Yami wo Harau Hikari" (Japanese: 闇を払う光)| October 9, 2019 (2019-10-09)
Ban and Meliodas defeat a group of demons, saving villagers that had been captured as demons' food after falling into a trap set by another village in Camelot. As the two of them camp out, Meliodas recalls how his power increases exponentially when he returns to his former demonic self, but also the fear of losing himself that comes with it. The two of them continue to set out to eradicate demons, tracing the trap to a village in Camelot, where the Ten Commandments have made their stronghold. In the village, a young boy named Peliodas who aspires to be the Dragon's Sin of Wrath (Meliodas) attempts to fight the demons to stop his community from continually capturing sacrifices for them, but fails. They are ultimately saved by Ban and Meliodas, along with Gowther, Escanor, Merlin and Elizabeth. The King of Liones appoints Howzer as the new acting Great Holy Knight, needing a leader to rise during this dark age. Privately, the King reveals to the current 5 members of the Seven Deadly Sins a premonition of his: the Sins will reassemble when the moon shines at midday and the fog hangs low in the royal capital. In the Fairy King's Forest, the final 2 members Diane and King encounter each other unexpectedly in a bathing river.

Diane and King, not knowing of Meliodas' revival, mourn over his death together.

During the dance, Gerheade sees a vision of the first Fairy King, Gloxinia, who is grateful that she is alive. When the dance stops however, everyone realises that Diane and King are missing, the two having been teleported to Drole and Gloxinia. The two former kings promise to kill them unless they successfully pass a test after completely defeating them. Drole and Gloxinia transport Diane and King into their past selves respectively, in order to help them determine whether they made the right choice 3000 years ago and wound up being members of the Ten Commandments. Diane and King watch through Drole and Gloxinia's eyes as they fight alongside Meliodas and a member of the Goddess clan greatly resembling Elizabeth against the Demon Clan.

As Stigma regroups back at the Fairy King's Forest, King meets with Gerheade, who reveals that her and Gloxinia are siblings. Stigma then meets with Ludociel, one of the Four Archangels and the Goddess Clan strongest warriors, who incites everyone to completely eradicate the demons, much to Elizabeth's horror. Elizabeth, who believes in fighting for peace and not destruction, urges Ludociel to reconsider, and when it fails, leaves to negotiate with an upcoming wave of demons, led by Derieri and Monspeet. Derieri agrees to leave peacefully if Elizabeth returns their captured brethren, but Ludociel gleefully presents to the demons a barrier of light, an Omega Ark, containing the wounded bodies of thousands of demons, one of which is Derieri's sister, before murdering all of them. The negotiations break down and the Holy War reaches its climax. King entrusts Rou and the humans with the duty of protecting the Forest and Gerheade during his absence and rushes to help with Diane.
