Byzel Fight Festival arc
After Geera returns home from her mission at the Capital of the Dead, Zeal warmly welcomes her back; ignoring her questions as to how he received a bruise on his face, and instead complements her new hair cut. As she hugs him, he tells her not to overwork herself or get hurt, and not to lose to the Seven Deadly Sins. She then apologizes for leaving him alone all the time, as he is relentlessly bullied while she is gone. As they talk, Geera catches a stone thrown through the window by three men who insult the two, calling them "disgraces of Holy Knights". Zeal confides to his sister that though he knows their father's disappearance lead to many deaths, he still has faith in him. When he asks if she became a Holy Knight for the same reason, she states that her reason for becoming a Holy Knight was to protect him, and to be someone whom he could be proud of. Zeal replies that he is fine even if he's by himself, which leads Geera to notice multiple cuts on his hands, and she softly kisses him on the forehead.
