Chapter 299

is the 299th chapter of the manga, Nanatsu no Taizai.

Short Summary
Mael and the Seven Deadly Sins continue to battle Zeldris, as Merlin continues Chrono Coffin.

Zeldris reveals his motive in helping Meliodas become the Demon King.

Despite freezing Meliodas’s cocoon, Meliodas successfully absorbs all ten Commandments, officially becoming the Demon King.

Long Summary
As Zeldris is punched back, Hendrickson asks everyone if they're alright though Escanor says they should be asking Hendrickson that.

Mael tells Zeldris that although they may have been fake memories, they were both brothers at some point and that they should be able to talk things out. Zeldris scoffs at this, saying that if Estarossa heard what Mael said, he would've laughed. Zeldris makes a blade out of darkness to replace the sword and Mael creates spinning disks.

They clash and Merlin announces that she needs two more minutes.

Mael injures Zeldris further and notices that Zeldris isn't acting as calm as he would be. He asks if Zeldris really wants to win the Holy War that badly to the point where he'd allow Meliodas to become the Demon King.

Zeldris tells Mael that he can say whatever he wants, as Zeldris appears behind Mael. He says that Meliodas was the one who wanted this and attacks Mael, pushing him back.

Mael sees that something is driving Zeldris to the point where he's desperate. Zeldris yells for Mael to stay out of their way as he slices Mael across his upper body.

Merlin needs one more minute to activate her spell which forces Zeldris to unleash a flurry of attacks using his darkness which Hawk proclaims will turn them all into swiss cheese.

But King activates his Spirit Spear's Eighth Form, Pollen Garden and tells Zeldris to give it up though King is also nearing his limit. Zeldris yells out in frustration and tries to break the barrier.

Mael states that it is unfortunate that something is driving Zeldris this way and attacks him from the back. Zeldris crashes into the ground, still standing. He remembers Meliodas's promise: he will revive Gelda as soon as he gathers all the Commandments and becomes the Demon King.

Merlin thanks everyone for their effort and finally unleashes her spell, Chrono Coffin: Activate and successfully suspends time within the cocoon. Hawk wonders if it works but Escanor points out that the bird near the cocoon is frozen in midair along with some rubble.

Zeldris thinks of Gelda as he falls back to the ground.

The Seven Deadly Sins all cheer that the Holy War has ended and Ludociel is extremely happy to meet Mael after all these long years. Hawk transforms into his Tyrant Dragon form and flies up to Meliodas's cocoon, saying that he's gotta wake up after everything everyone has done for him.

Hawk mentions Elizabeth has only one more day until her curse activates but all Elizabeth wants is for Meliodas to be safe. Hawk then notices that there is a hole in the cocoon. It's empty.

Everyone feels a dark power and Elizabeth can feel someone behind her. She asks Meliodas if that's him and Zeldris laughs. He tells Meliodas that he better keep his promise, addressing him as the Demon King as it's shown Meliodas, all grown up.
