Meliodas:You don't plan on really breaking the kid, right?

Kumagawa:[Nothing too serious. It's just, he's a Holy Knight. Same with that guy in the first round. I just wanna see what kind of group Gil-chan is hanging around these days.]

Meliodas:Two Holy Knights at a fighting tournament? The work really became more laid back from our time.

Kumagawa:[Yeah, although none of them are the Holy Knight I want to see.]

Meliodas:You really got hung up on those thighs, huh?

Kumagawa:[I mean, did you see them?]

Announcer:Old Fart versus Cain!
