 * For the character in the original oneshot, see Elizabeth (Oneshot)

"I... made a promise. Even if you were to die... Even if I'm the only one left... I will protect the people of the kingdom from the Holy Knights."

- Elizabeth, while entering Friesia's attack to protect a child, in Dedicated Resolution

is the third princess of the Kingdom of Liones, an adopted daughter of King Liones, and is originally from the kingdom of Danafor. She is the main female protagonist and begins working as a waitress at Boar Hat bar when she joins Meliodas in his journey to find the Seven Deadly Sins.

Appearance
She has long silver hair and blue eyes. She wears a pair of blue ear rings with the symbol of the royal family of Liones, the symbol compromising the sun, the moon and stars. In the main series, Elizabeth wore a black suit for wearing a rusted armor but when she joined the Boar Hat, she start wearing a purple open shirt with a black ribbon on top and a dark mini skirt.

Her wanted poster's image is very accurate, since she had been in the kingdom very recently.

Personality
Elizabeth is very polite, grateful and caring, and though initially appearing to be fragile and frail, she is in fact very brave and courageous. Her selfless attitude and bravery are demonstrated when she willingly tries to rescue a child from Friesia's attack which earn her some form of respect from the Deadly Sins due to her courage. On the other hand, she is also a fairly gullible person, always being tricked by Meliodas's antics. Elizabeth has a relatively low self-esteem, always saying that she is just a burden to the Deadly Sins since she is unable to fight back.

Elizabeth is always been seen fondled by Meliodas, but she appears to not mind it after listening and believing Meliodas' excuses. She begins growing more casual with Meliodas perverted antics, blushing less. Despite being a princess, Elizabeth shows a lot of respect and trust towards the Seven Deadly Sins even though there are several bad rumors about them - she even addresses them with the titles, lord and lady. Elizabeth is very strong-willed, as shown when Veronica died, she remains determine to continue stopping the Holy Knights - she only cries when she is alone, not letting others see tears. When Gowther stated that she likes Meliodas, she immediately blushes and becomes bashful.

History
Not much of Elizabeth's early life, and the circumstances surrounding her adoption by Liones's king and Danafor's destruction have been revealed. As a child she would often play with Gilthunder, Hauser, and her adopted sisters, Veronica and Margaret, the latter having given Elizabeth an earring containing the symbol of the royal family.

After the Holy Knights staged the coup, she escaped from the castle and, clad in rusting armor, began a journey to find the Seven Deadly Sins, the sole individuals she believed could match the Holy Knights' strength. By the time she had reached Caines Village, her armor had rusted, and she was constantly disappearing and appearing, and repeated delirious-like mutterings of "Seven Deadly Sins" which had led the villagers to name her the "mysterious Rust Knight".

Introduction arc
Elizabeth is first seen when she enters the Boar Hat, exhausted, clad in rusting armor, and muttering, "the Seven Deadly Sins". After the the rumors of the infamous "Rust Knight", Elizabeth's armor having given her the epithet, frighten customers into fleeing, and Meliodas confronts her, she immediately collapses, and reveals her to be female. Shortly after, Elizabeth awakes, and is questioned about the reason she is traveling. As she begins to reveal that she is searching for the "Seven Deadly Sins", a few knights, informed by the villagers of the Rust Knight and believing him to be one of the "Seven Deadly Sins, demand he come out. While Meliodas and Hawk stall them, Elizabeth escapes from the back door, with Meliodas and Hawk easily defeating the pursuing knights.

Elizabeth continues, explaining to the two that her search for the Seven Deadly Sins was in order to defeat the Holy Knights, who, she informs them, had orchestrated a coup d'état a few days ago, and have taken control of the kingdom. Abruptly, the portion of the cliff they have been standing on is cut off by Twigo. After Meliodas rescues everyone, Twigo, upon noticing Elizabeth's earring realizes her being the one of the three princesses of the kingdom. Twigo, planning to report her death as accidental, attacks Elizabeth and Meliodas. The young man saves her, and then again, when she decides to surrender, not wanting to involve him in her matters. Just as Twigo is about to deal the final blow, Meliodas, smiling, reveals his name and identity as the one of the Seven Deadly Sins, the Dragon's Sin of Wrath. Easily defeating Twigo, he then offers for her to join him, which she happily accepts.

Officially hired as a waitress in Boar Hat, Elizabeth is given a new set of attire. Curious, she questions Meliodas as to why he was labelled as a criminal, doubting whether he was an actual criminal. He initially jokes, but in the end, doesn't answer her properly. The two, and Hawk, soon reach Bernia, a town popular for its ale made from its river. They, however, find that it has dried completely; Upon finding a large crows of men trying to remove a sword after entering the town, it is revealed that a Holy Knight had, on the previous day, sealed the river's underground water source with his sword, preventing the creation of the ale, Bernia's primary source of income. While the townspeople try to remove the sword, a boy named Mead starts boasting about a friend of his, who, he claims, is a Deadly Sin. His claims serve to only anger the villagers, who blame Mead for their crisis. Meliodas brings him to the Boar Hat, trying to question him on his supposed "friend", where Elizabeth, having been told that it was Mead who angered of the Holy Knight into damming the river, manages to have him answer after narrating to him an episode of her past. Hearing that narration, Mead informs them the reason, also adding that his claim of his "friend" was a lie.

After Meliodas easily removes the Holy Knight, Gilthunder's, sword, the villagers celebrate at the Boar Hat, where Elizabeth attempts her first time at being a waitress. She makes several mistakes along the way, her frustration prompts her to run outside, crying. Outside, she finds Meliodas, who, after managing to encourage her, then stops Gilthunder's spear which had been heading for the town, and throws it back. After acknowledging that prolonging their stay would bring more danger to Bernia, the two decide to leave.

Forest of White Dreams Arc
Informed of even Holy Knights avoiding Forest of White Dreams in Bernia, she, Meliodas and Hawk enter the forest, speculating of a Deadly Sin hiding there. After walking in the forest for more than three hours and losing their sense of direction, the three find multiple copies of Hawk. Meliodas quickly defeats all of them, including the original, but then discovers similar and copies of Elizabeth. After he successfully tricks them, they, defeated, are shown to be the indigenous Prankster Imps, and retreat towards Diane, inadvertently leading the three to her, apologizing for letting a "Holy Knight" come through, since they believe that Meliodas is a Holy Knight. After she wakes, Diane instantly grabs Meliodas, only to cuddle him when she realizes that he is her captain. When Elizabeth introduces herself to Diane as traveling with Meliodas, Diane jumps to the conclusion that she and Meliodas are a couple, and throws a tantrum. Meliodas, after calming her down, proceeds to begin a discussion about the day the Sins were framed for the Great Holy Knight's death.

Melodias informed them that he has almost no memories of the day, then narrates the only memories he has, which end with one of the Deadly Sins apologizing to him. This Elizabeth to speculate the existence of a traitor, and Diane, to declare that she will join Meliodas. Few brief moments later, Hawk notices a gigantic thundercloud in the sky. A lightning bolt from it then binds all of them and the assailant is shown to be Gilthunder. Elizabeth immediately recognizes Gilthunder, explaining to Meliodas that he is a Holy Knight very close to her father, and a brother-figure to her. However, she quickly realizes his intentions, much to her shock. Gilthunder unbinds her and, stating that she is insignificant, orders her to leave. She refuses, and asks him to release Meliodas and Diane instead. When Gilthunder kicks Hawk away, Elizabeth runs after the pig. Later, after Meliodas and Gilthunder's battle, and Diane flings the latter out of the forest, Meliodas, Hawk, Elizabeth, now accompanied by Diane, leave the place. As Meliodas decides their next destination as Baste Dungeon, where Ban is imprisoned, Elizabeth objects, citing his grave wound. Though affirming that the wound was not major, he soon collapses.

Baste Dungeon Arc
Elizabeth, Diane and Hawk then travel Baste Dungeon, called Dalmary, to have Meliodas treated. There, Dana states that his patient being alive was a miracle in itself. Sometime afterwards, Diane declares that she will head to the dungeon herself. When Elizabeth asks to accompany her, Diane decides to head to the dungeon herself, retorting that Elizabeth would be only a hindrance when the princess asks to join. Elizabeth replies her desire to be of use, and that Meliodas was taking on "more than he can handle". This angers Diane, her saying that Meliodas was not doing so for the princess alone, and that such was his usual personality. She continues, narrating the episode her and her captain's first meeting, and his treatment of her at that time. As Elizabeth declares her wishes of wanting to have strength, Diane declares her own of wanting to be small. Abruptly, Hawk notices a huge swarm of poisonous insects flying toward Dalmary. After Diane annihilates the entire swarm, Elizabeth awes at her power, as the latter leaps out of Dalmary runs toward the dungeon, after handing Elizabeth the responsibility of taking care of Meliodas.

Sometime afterward, she and Hawk watch Meliodas as Dana enters. Suddenly, a voice commends Dana for his hard work. To the shock of the both, Dana reveals that the medicine he had made Meliodas drink was actually a deadly poison. Golgius then appears behind Elizabeth, revealing himself to be the voice. He states that he has come to take Elizabeth and Meliodas' sword, and grabs the weapon. Soon, however, Meliodas is revealed to still be alive, but with his eyes now mysteriously being colored jet black, with a strange mark on his forehead. The powerful aura Meliodas is releasing frightens Golgius into fleeing. After Meliodas returns to normalcy, it is revealed that Meliodas' wound has mysteriously healed. The three then go in Golgius' chase, and find him very soon. Despite Golgius' surrendering, Meliodas notices the blades his threw, and blocks them. When Dana also finds Golgius, and the latter kills the former for censoring their deal, Elizabeth runs toward the doctor, as Meliodas blocks Golgius' attack on her. The three then escape, while Meliodas protects Elizabeth from Golgius. They enter an old building, where Elizabeth watches as Golgius falls for Meliodas' trap.

After Golgius is defeated and sent flying into the street, the Holy Knight manages to escape on a horse. Just as Meliodas and Hawk decide to head for the Baste Dungeon, Elizabeth walks toward the dying Dana. When she cries for him, he explains that he had only wanted to rescue his daughter, Cenette, as his hand falls. Elizabeth, in sorrow, blames herself for his death. Meliodas replies that he understand her, but questions whether her resolve to protect the kingdom's citizens is as weak. He, declaring that he would fulfill his promise with her even if she were to die, proceeds to give a speech. Later, Hawk and Meliodas leave Elizabeth in Dalmary while heading for the dungeon, citing the danger the Weird Fangs posed. However, she herself joins them, declaring that while she isn't a knight, she would keep fighting for the people of the kingdom even if Meliodas were to die, mirroring his prior statement.

While walking, they encounter Diane, who seems to have no memories of defeating Friesia and heading for the dungeon. Diane now having joined them, Meliodas decides that rescuing Cenette, Dana's daughter, would be their primary priority, to Elizabeth's gladness. Suddenly, Diane attacks Meliodas, having previously fallen for Ruin's illusion abilities. Meliodas, immediately realizing that Diane was under an illusion, flees while carrying Elizabeth, with Hawk running behind them, and upon finding two civilians, one of whom is a young boy, walking nearby, takes them along, since they will be dragged into the battle. As they three, and the two frightened civilians, who are revealed to be shepherds from Dalmary Town, hide, Meliodas also falls under Ruin's hypnosis when he tries to look at Diane, which makes him see Ruin in her place the same way she sees Ruin in his. Quickly noticing that Meliodas has also fallen for the trap, Elizabeth tries to escape with the shepherds and Hawk, stating that they would die if the two Deadly Sins fight each other seriously.

As the two Deadly Sins continue their battle, Elizabeth desperately yells for them to stop, which causes Diane to regain her senses and memories. The young shepherd, who had met Diane on her way to Baste, goes toward her, only for her to then be hypnotized again and continue fighting Meliodas. Seeing the civilians frightened, Elizabeth declares that she will put her life to protect them. Hearing that, Friesia, testing Elizabeth's declaration, uses her bugs to attack the young boy, and when she hesitates, taunts her. He, however, is surprised when Elizabeth willingly enters the tornado of insects, being injured in the process, and protects the boy. The child, however, replying that while her risking injury to protect a child was admirable, reality is harsh, reveals himself to be a disguised Ruin under an illusion.

As Elizabeth asks him to undo the hypnosis, he pulls her with the hair and knees her in the chest, and hits her in the head with the top of his staff when she manages to get up. Telling Friesia that nothing was better than the face of a young girl writhing in pain, Ruin, in commendation for her bravery, explains to Elizabeth that the source of his illusions was his staff's bell, only to find it to have been removed by Elizabeth when she was hit with the top of the staff. He lashes out in anger, but before he can kill her, is stopped by Meliodas, who has regained his senses since the source of the hypnosis has been removed.

Meliodas, telling the unconscious Elizabeth that he has accepted her resolution, then fights Ruin, soon defeating him. Diane, having come to her senses as well, quickly defeats Friesia also, and initially deciding to take Elizabeth to Dalmary in order to treat her severe injuries, then takes her to the Baste Dungeon on her own request, with the princess sleeping in the giant's bag.

After the dungeon is destroyed, and everyone, including Ban, Cenette and all the other villagers imprisoned there, return to Dalmary Town, she is questioned by Diane and Meliodas as to how she is feeling. Elizabeth, however, starts worrying and questions them about the well-being others, to which Hawk retorts that she should worry about herself before others. She then requests for Meliodas to join Cenette.

At night, during dinner, Elizabeth, bedridden due to her injuries, is formally introduced to Ban. As the party continues, Elizabeth wishes that the moment could last forever, stating that the events in Baste reminded her all the more about the Holy Knights' frightening abilities, and the fact that only the Seven Deadly Sins could match them. In response, Diane replies that while she doesn't know, and isn't interested in, humans and human kingdoms, she wouldn't mind fighting for the princess, since she was "really cool" that day, and did have powers: the power to move her and Meliodas' hearts. She also asks her whether she could henceforth address her as merely "Elizabeth", instead of "princess", and then tells the young lady to address her as just "Diane". Some time afterwards, She, along with the others, awes at the sky as the shooting stars pass, and is later shown to be sleeping.

Capital of the Dead Arc
Three days later, and after Elizabeth's complete recovery, the Boar Hat, and the group, now including Ban, leave Dalmary Town. As Meliodas decides upon their course, Elizabeth apologizes for her recovery having caused the delay, to which Diane replies that she is too apologetic, and questions her as to how she is feeling, with the princess answering that she is fine. When Ban questions Meliodas about their next destination, the latter is cut off from answering by two Holy Knight apprentices, who, claiming to b full-fledged e Holy Knights, knowing that Diane is a giant, and that the Deadly Sins were accompanied by a giant pig with a house on its back, stop them for a security check.

Meliodas, stopping Ban from attacking them, lies that the Boar Hat is an ordinary traveling bar, and that Diane and Elizabeth were his "attractive waitresses". The two apprentices readily believe the lie and allow Hawk's mother to pass through, much to Ban's surprise; before the giant pig can do so, however, Diane, glad at Meliodas' comment about her being an "attractive waitress", lifts him and cuddles him. Just as the two apprentices realize that the child is Meliodas due to her addressing of him as "captain", a very fast creature eats them before then can respond.

Elizabeth watches, as Ban tries to frighten the creature, which is shown to be a Black Hound, only for it to enlarge, since Black Hounds have the ability to change their size depending on how threatened they feel. After the animal runs away, Hawk states that it was only a senseless coward, contrary to the rumors that Black Hounds continue to chase their prey until they kill them, to which Elizabeth comments that the Black Hound appeared to have been frightened for a moment. As they continue their journey, Meliodas states that their next destination is the Capital of the Dead, and that they will search for King there.

After they arrive at the village that Meliodas states to be the closest to the Capital of the Dead, Elizabeth questions to help with waitressing, since she wasn't bothered by her injuries. Meliodas accepts, but warns her to not push herself very much, and then calls out, informing Ban the directions to the food storage room, only to discover that he has escaped, not wanting to cook food for the Boar Hat. Sometime afterward, Elizabeth questions Meliodas as to what king of person King is, to which he replies that he is somewhat of a mascot or pet of the Seven Deadly Sins. He also states that Ban once went through a phase of collecting stuffed animals, which Elizabeth comments to be cute, and proceeds to narrate the episode. Ban had stole every single stuffed animal in the kingdom, justifying his "small" act by saying that he "worked hard" as a knight. This, however, greatly angered King who, after Ban finally grew satisfied and fell asleep, returned all of the stuffed toys to the children. As Meliodas finishes, Elizabeth states that King has a very kind heart.

After Ban's encountering of Ellen and her brother, and his brief battle with King, Elizabeth is present when he feeds the two children in return for information regarding the location of the Capital of the Dead, and is shown to be surprised when they reveal that King has also been asking them the same, wanting to go there no matter what. She watches puzzled, as they explain that the village is the entrance to the Capital, but that people cannot enter it at will, since the Capital is not a grave, but a place where the deceased reside, making it somewhat of an afterlife. As Elizabeth wonders as to the method of entering it, Ellen recites a riddle that their neighbor often stated, that a priceless memory shared with the deceased will open the path to the Capital, to which Ban thanks her.

When they go to the precise entrance to the Capital, Elizabeth wonders if her desire to meet her mother, who passed away when she was young, will open the path, but realizes that it will not, since she doesn't have any actual memories with her mother. Suddenly, a great amount of flowers appear around the area they are in, whose petals, when Hawk tries to eat them, wither and then transport them to the Capital, implying that someone among them has opened the path, and shares a priceless memory with a deceased individual. As Elizabeth wonders if it was her desire to meet her mother that brought them there, Ban immediately leaves in someone's chase, with King, who had quickly entered the swirling petals that transported the group to the Capital, in turn, chasing Ban; Elizabeth looks at his appearance, which does not not resemble his wanted poster at all, in surprise.

Meliodas, Elizabeth, Hawk and Ban walk, searching for Ban and King, the pig comments the lack of any actual ghosts, to which Elizabeth states that she would be frightened if any ghosts appear, and then asks Meliodas as to why King started chasing after Ban. Meliodas replies that he is wondering the same as well, and also about what Ban started chasing in the first place, to Elizabeth and King's fright. As the four continue walking, Guila appears in front of them, her having entered the Capital of the Dead by killing herself. As Guila unsheathes her rapier, and unleashes a very powerful aura whose mere pressure pushes Elizabeth and Hawk behind, Meliodas, sensing the danger she poses, instructs the latter to escape as far as he can along with the former. As Hawk escapes with Elizabeth riding him, he states that his animal instinct had felt Guila to be more dangerous than Gilthunder. After going some distance, he then states that they should be safe there, only for Meliodas to crash on one of the crystals, that dot the Capital of the Dead, nearby, and then instruct them to run farther away, with Hawk doing so.

Sometime afterward, as Hawk and Elizabeth crash, the former stating that he is not able to run any more due to exhaustion, Elizabeth finds King, and after introducing herself, informs him about Guila having arrived at the Capital and having attacked Meliodas and Diane, and then also questions him about Ban's whereabouts. When he is reluctant to help in fighting the Holy Knight, Elizabeth, much to his surprise, instructs to escape, and stating that she will be borrowing his spear, tries to lift it. As she states that she wants to be of use to Meliodas and Diane, Hawk, overcoming his exhaustion, also helps her in lifting King's spear; their determination soon convinces King, who then lifts the spear with his telekinetic powers, and then heads to the battlefield.

After King and Guila's battle ends with the latter's defeat, Elizabeth and Hawk arrive at the battlefield, Elizabeth watches in shock as the Holy Knight rises from the debris and attacks King from the back, stating that even if he guards himself, he would not come out unscathed if he is attacked at a close range. Just before her attack reaches, however, Meliodas repels it back at her, the explosion's impact having returned Guila back to the living world. Immediately as he does so, everyone starts disintegrating, with Elaine explaining this to be due to the Capital rejecting them, the living, who do not belong there. After having returned to the living world, Elizabeth wonders as to whose memories led them to the Capital of the Dead, only to be frightened at discovering Guila's half-dead body.

Later, when King questions as to Elizabeth's relation with Meliodas, the Deadly Sin initially jokes about them being a couple, and then introduces her as the third princess of the kingdom. Surprised at knowing Elizabeth's status as princess, King, wanting to present himself better, transforms into a much older and fatter form; he then returns to his ordinary appearance upon being told to do so. She, later, praises King for having been able to defeat an opponent, Guila, whom Meliodas, Diane and Ban were struggling to fight, and watches King question his fellow Sins about their sacred treasures, his irritated response to their answers, and then, him explaining to Hawk the significance of the Deadly Sins' sacred treasures. As Meliodas and King discuss about the Holy Knights, she questions the latter about her father and sisters, which, he replies, he does not know about, disappointing her.

Byzel Arc
Later, that night, Elizabeth is seen inside Boar Hat's bedroom, and then, after Meliodas enters the room, nostalgically remembers her childhood, expressing her worries about her sisters and father, but is reassured by Meliodas, that they are alright, and will be rescued by them.

The next day, Elizabeth, Meliodas, King and Hawk travel to Biron, a town popular for its ceramics, trying to gather information about the other Deadly Sins, Diane and Ban having stayed behind in the Boar Hat due to her size as a giant, and his wanted poster's image's resemblance to him, respectively. As the four walk, they soon find the wanted posters of the Deadly Sins, but now accompanied by a wanted poster for Elizabeth. All the residents, upon discovering that they are the criminals in the posters, immediately and unsuccessfully try to chase them. After the four escape to a tower, Elizabeth expresses her fright at discovering a wanted poster for herself. Though Hawk suggests for them to forget about business in Biron and escape, Meliodas and King leave Elizabeth in the same tower to gather information, upon the princess' own urging.

As Elizabeth and Hawk continue waiting in the tower, they hear a villager, below, pleading to Griamor, who has arrived in Biron after receiving a report of the villagers having found the fugitives, that he had really found them. The Holy Knight, however, refuses to believe that they had escaped after being found, and cruelly considering the report to be false, prepares to execute the villager. Elizabeth, unable to watch such an injustice happen, shows herself to prevent the execution of the citizen, which leads him to commend her courage and call it admirable. When she says that she wouldn't forgive his injustice, he retorts, while lifting her with a single hand, that what he had pledged his allegiance to was not the Royal Family, but is cut off from finishing his statement by Veronica's arrival.

Veronica, stopping Griamor from further hurting Elizabeth, then takes her to a room in Ceramic Tear Inn, where, as Griamor stays guard outside, she scolds Elizabeth for sneaking out of the castle. Upon the latter questioning the former whether she was taken there under the orders of the kingdom, Veronica accepts so, and also states that if Elizabeth was captured by here then, she could even become the future princess. Quickly adding that she was joking, she then asks her sister to come back to the castle, since as a princess and Holy Knight, she had enough influence to "do something". Elizabeth, however, refuses to do so and then also expresses her opposition to the Holy Knights' enslavement of the citizens, with Veronica justifying it by saying that the citizens' forced involvement in military activities was for their own protection in the upcoming war.

Veronica continues, saying that rumors state Elizabeth to be hunting the Holy Knights down with the Seven Deadly Sins, and trying to persuade her to cut all ties with the legendary group, informing her that they are all "despicable and evil". Their captain, Meliodas, she includes, is not a half-hearted criminal, but a "raging monster who leaves a path of destruction wherever he goes", and that his child-like appearance is, but a mask. Her sister opposing the statement, Veronica argues that Meliodas is simply deceiving her to use her later, and when Elizabeth refuses to disclose the Deadly Sins' location, refuses to let her out of the room, but, before going out, gives her a pendant of their father's which he says will protect them from evil.

As she waits in the room with her head facing down, she does not notice Meliodas and Griamor's very brief battle, only looking above after the former has already defeated the latter. Later, when Elizabeth thanks Meliodas for saving her and apologizes for not remain hidden, Meliodas only states that he shouldn't have left her there by herself, and also informs her that they have found their next destination. Abruptly, fireworks are bursting above the town they are next headed to, as Elizabeth states that though she said that her time with her sisters was very enjoyable the previous day, she is very happy when she is traveling with the Deadly Sins, though frightening events often occur. As the both walk away, she does not notice the fact that Meliodas' shadow appears to be the silhouette of a giant monster, implying that he is not human.

The next day, the group reaches a town named Byzel, that hosts an annual flea market, in which a "weapon that no one can use" is said to be sold; Meliodas and Elizabeth speculate said weapon to be a sacred treasure. Suddenly then, Diane throws a temper tantrum at not being able to accompany the others into Byzel. Elizabeth offers to join Diane in house-sitting, and when Diane replies that doing so will be boring, responds that she wants to have some "girl talk" once in a while, then heading into the forest with the giant to gather ingredients for dinner. As they walk into the forest, Elizabeth finds a mushroom-like monster; Diane, considering it an ingredient, tries to grab it. The creature, realizing that it is in danger, releases spores that shrink both Elizabeth and Diane. The latter wears the former's clothes and jewelry, in order for them to not be lost, and then, wanting to surprise Meliodas, enters the Byzel Fight Festival under the name of "Matrona", with the shrunken Elizabeth hiding in the shrunken Diane's bosom.

Elizabeth hides in Diane's bosom during the preliminaries of the tournament, and then, during Diane's first battle against Griamor. After Diane wins the battle, King questions her about how her body has become small, and Elizabeth's whereabouts. In response to the last question, a shrunken Elizabeth, from Diane's bosom, replies that she is right there. When Meliodas refuses Diane's advances, and then comforts her, Elizabeth appears to be dejected. She, along with Diane and King, watches Meliodas and Ban's battle, and as Ban is about to land the final blow, pleads to the both to stop him, and then yells for Ban to stop as he punches his opponent; Elizabeth is seen to be surprised by Meliodas having won the battle. Diane then explains how the battle had ended, that Meliodas' eyes were colored black, and that his forehead had a black colored mark, leading to Elizabeth wonder if said mark was the same one Meliodas had had in Dalmary, during Golgius' trying to grab his sword. After Diane hurriedly hands her, and her jewelry to Meliodas, before heading for her battle against Hauser, Elizabeth is alarmed at Meliodas' perverted smirking.

When Diane turns back at a cheer, and upon finding Meliodas teasing the shrunken and naked Elizabeth, is angered at him not cheering for her; Meliodas continues teasing the princess a the latter does cheer for the fighter. Meliodas then questions Elizabeth as to what was wrong, to which she states the reason she has been dejected for some time: she believes that the reason Meliodas behaves this way towards her is that he doesn't consider her to be important to him. The Deadly Sin, however, does not hear her response over the other noises, leading her to add that she was just talking to herself, and mentally state that no matter what Meliodas thinks of her, she has resolved to believe in him. She proceeds to then tell him that she was very worried about him during his fight against Ban; he replies that he will not battle like that again, but mentally adds that he will only do so when she is nearby.

Elizabeth watches Diane and Hauser's battle, and as Hauser becomes serious tells Meliodas that Hauser should not become serious, since, though he is normally an easy-going person, he wouldn't stop once he has become serious. As she says this, Meliodas wonders if she her size has grown a little. After the battle ends with Diane's victory, she is apologized to by the shrunken giant for her clothes, which Diane has borrowed, having been ruined during the fight. During Cain and Meliodas' battle, as the audience discuss about Cain's shirt bearing the crest of Danafor, Elizabeth mentally states her father had told her about her originating from the kingdom once. After the battle ends, and the final battle of the tournament between Meliodas and Diane is declared, both fighters head to the ring, but not before Hawk borrows a ribbon, and with it, makes a small dress for the shrunken Elizabeth, who is left in his care.

Elizabeth then watches as Meliodas and Diane fight, and questions the Sins' actions when they threaten the civilians to leave. She soon understands the Sins' actions: the four had acted so to have the civilians evacuate. Acting by Meliodas' instructions, Hawk and Elizabeth hide. After King defeats Guila and Jericho, the two bring the unconscious Meliodas along. As Elizabeth hangs her pendant around the Sin's neck, the two are found by Veronica and Griamor, as Elizabeth returns to her normal size. Veronica notices her pendant on Meliodas' neck, in response to which Elizabeth explains that it was her who gave it to him. As Elizabeth refuses Veronica's pleading for her to return to the capital, Meliodas wakes, and stops her, trying to convince Veronica that he will protect Elizabeth. Veronica, however, triggers the pendant, which is actually a stone that will affect demonic beings, to seal Meliodas.

Elizabeth and Hawk are greatly shocked, as Veronica concludes that Meliodas was a monster, since the stone affects only demonic beings. Not believing her, Elizabeth continues to refuse to return to the capital, and asks Veronica to undo her spell. As she keeps refusing, Veronica orders Griamor to form a barrier around Elizabeth, and forcefully bring her back. Much to the three's surprise, however, Ban suddenly wakes from his unconsciousness, and takes Veronica hostage. Ban is unable to do much due to Jericho and Guila's arrival and his quick defeat. Guila, noticing that her targets were under custody, extends her hand to help Eliabeth after Griamor releases his barrier around her. Veronica stops her, declaring that she will instead take Elizabeth. Guila argues, and as Veronica opposes again, dismisses the princess' authority and threatens to use force. Immediately, Griamor surrounds Guila and Jericho in a barrier. While Griamor and Veronica's attention is focused on Jericho and Guila, Elizabeth manages to flee, with Veronica chasing. Few moments later, their footsteps trigger one of Guila's explosive mines. Veronica protects Elizabeth, but suffers fatal injuries herself.

Elizabeth was shock to see the sight of Veronica in near death and told her to hold on, but Veronica told Elizabeth if she was fine, Elizabeth told Veronica that she was fine and told her that she always protected her even when they were four and not related by blood, but Veronica then told her that it didn't matter if they were related by blood. Elizabeth then told Veronica that she was sorry for telling her she hate her, but Veronica told Elizabeth that she loved her to which Elizabeth tearful she love her too and Veronica response that she knew because they are sister. Veronica then order Griamor to protect Elizabeth and passed away. Due to Griamor sadness over Veronica death, Guila and Jericho were set free and attack Griamor. Guila then was planning to take Elizabeth to which she keep on calling for Meliodas to save them. The Goddess Amber was then glowing darker and break apart which release dark energy and Meliodas was set free, but was now half of his body is cover in the mysterious mark.

Elizabeth then watch in shock at the sight of Meliodas dark power which he used to defeat both Guila and Jericho with ease, and cut Ban in half, Meliodas then went to see Elizabeth who was being protected by Hawk at the moment. Meliodas then start smelling Elizabeth which confused the girl. Meliodas then sense great power coming toward where King was fighting and use some dark matter to form a wing and fly away which left Elizabeth and Hawk confused. Elizabeth and Hawk watch in horror as Meliodas was defeated by Helbram, Ban grab King and told Elizabeth Ban taking Elizabeth and King away from the fight Ban taking Elizabeth and King away from the fight that they had to retreat.
