3,000 years ago
During the last few days of the Ancient War, he and the Supreme Deity having lost their patience in their shared anger and having had enough of their children's repeated defiance of the laws of their clan worked together and fought against Meliodas and Elizabeth, effortlessly killing them and cursing them for eternity. The Demon King cursed Meliodas with immortality as his punishment.

Defensive Battle for Liones arc
After Meliodas's fight with the Ten Commandments, the Demon King greets him in Purgatory. He admits to having been keeping an eye on the captain of the Seven Deadly Sins throughout and muses that even Meliodas was unable to do anything other than wait for death when caught by the Commandments of Piety and Love. When Meliodas counters that he is now free from the Commandments' bindings thanks to his curse, the Demon King agrees but mentions that he can feel Meliodas' quivering. Entertaining Meliodas' bluffs, he expresses anger towards the certain woman who had changed Meliodas and then informs him that though he was left in a greatly weakened state, the curse he casted on the Dragon's Sin of Wrath would allow him to feed on his emotions every time he dies, allowing the Demon King to regain his lost power and at the same time reverting his traitorous son back to the state he was three thousand years ago. He is then attacked by an outraged Meliodas.

He is also responsible for the curse on Meliodas that has lasted for at least three thousand years that can only be broken with a power equivalent of his or the Supreme Deity.

Abilities

 * The Demon King is capable of bestowing a Commandment on those he deems suitable. These Commandments deliver a unique curse to whomever breaks a rule specific to each Commandment. This power is absolute; it cannot be opposed even by its wielder. The curses will only be lifted if the victim defeats its wielder or at the victim's death. Notably, these curses are not magical in origin, activating even when their holders are drained of magic, and are perceived differently than magic is as well.
 * Those who show faithlessness in the holder's presence will have their eyes set ablaze. It was held by Melascula.
 * Those who stand before the Commandment holder with hatred in their hearts will be rendered powerless to harm or inflict damage on anyone else. It is held by Estarossa.
 * Any who kills in the holder's presence will have their own time stolen from them, causing the victim to age rapidly and die. It is held by Grayroad.
 * The curse and its activation are unknown. It is held by Drole.
 * Any who turn their back to the Commandment's holder are treated as committing an act of treachery, and are cursed into serving the Demon King, and by extension the holder who is acting as the Demon King's representative. It was once held by Calmadios, and is currently held by Zeldris.
 * The curse and its activation are unknown. It is held by Derieri.
 * The curse and its activation are unknown. It is held by Gloxinia.
 * The curse and its activation are unknown. It is held by Monspeet.
 * Those harboring greed, avarice and desire will be inflicted by its curse will lose their memories, feelings, and entire sense of self. It was once held by Gowther, but was later passed on to Fraudrin upon Gowther's disappearance.
 * This Commandment determines that any who tell a lie in the holder's presence will be turned to stone. However, only those who are aware that they are lying will be affected. It is held by Galand.


 * Immortality Curse: The demon king is capable of casting a curse that revives the victim without fail regardless of the means of death, including suicide or getting killed, no matter how many times they die. It additionally prevents the victim from dying of old age. In exchange for the infinite number of revivals, the victim's emotions are slowly drained to nourish the King. The condition to dispel it is to get a power equivalent to the King himself or the Supreme Deity and aside from the demon king and the supreme deity themselves,only zeldris,the one who has been lent the demon king power,is known to hold the power to be capable of such feat. The only known victim of the curse is Meliodas.

Meliodas
He and Meliodas now have an extremely antagonistic relationship, though how it was before Meliodas betrayed the Demon Clan is unknown,but currently meliodas holds nothing but hatred and anger for his father due to him being the one who cursed meliodas with immortality which thanks to the supreme deity curse,effectively keeps him apart from elizabeth.the demon king also holds visible anger and resentment for his son betraying him as evidenced when He lightly mocks his defeat and descent to Purgatory and also showed visible mockery at the sin of wrath.however,it appears the demon king still considers meliodas to be the rightful heir to his mantle,as evidenced when he openly revels in the idea of bringing his oldest son back to the fold and after meliodas fell back into his former self,the demon king was delighted and immediately ordered zeldris to retrieve his elder son and crown him the new king of the demons,apparently disregarding his son betrayal despite zeldris visible discontent and shock.
