The fang of the Land, Matrona.
Of the four people showcased when Meliodas says this line the only one who is not also featured in this panel:
Is Gerharde. Matrona and Jenna and Zaneri are all accounted for.
Odd that Gerharde is the only not there when they are guarding the Fairy King's Lands.
Since she also wasn't in the Fairy Realm Arc, I do wonder where she is.
Since it really looks like Part 2 is coming to a close, I think we might be looking at Part 3 for answers on Gerharde.

七つの⼤罪 20巻 / The Seven Deadly Sins, vol.20.
English:
Do you cry because of the actions of other people? Do you judge others?
Then remember the words of Holy Blessed Matrona:
"Why judge other people? Think more about yourself. Every little sheep will be hung by its tail. What do other tails matter to you?"
Русский:
Ты плачешь из-за поступков других людей? Ты осуждаешь людей?
Тогда запомни слова Святой Блаженной Матроны:
"Зачем осуждать других людей? Думай о себе почаще. Каждая овечка будет подвешена за свой хвостик. Что тебе до других хвостиков?"
Matrona as Morgana
Dea Matrona

R S Loomis, the author of numerous scholarly works on the Arthurian legends, refers to the fragmentation of identities of the goddess Matrona. The River Marne in France is named after her and she has a more widespread identity as, for instance, Modron in Britain, mother of the god Mabon or Maponos.
Loomis identifies the Arthurian character Morgan La Fée as the literary manifestation of a number of folklore ‘morgans’ descended from Matrona who often appear as mermaids or other water spirits, particularly in West Wales:
“She has acquired not only the attributes and activities of Macha, the Morrigan and Matrona, but also the mythic heritage of other Celtic deities. She is a female pantheon in miniature.”
“She was a sort of naiad or nereid, haunting springs, rivers, fords, lakes, and seas, or dwelling beneath their surfaces; she was a foster-mother of heroes, who took them in their infancy, trained them for high adventure, and watched over them in peril; she showered wealth on her favourites; she sometimes appeared in a group of three fays; she foretold the future; she was both a beneficent and a sinister power; she lay in wait for mortals, offering them her love; she possessed a very swift and powerful horse.”
From Wales and the Arthurian Legend (Cardiff, 1956) pp.127-128
Loomis also cites a number of other links between this multiple goddess and the ‘Matres’, the ‘Parcae’ and the ‘Lamiae’, the latter characterised by an anonymous Elizabethan writer as
“ladies of the fayry, whyche dooe allure yong men to company carnally with theym”.
Loomis concludes that “The divergent lines of Goidelic and Brythonic mythology seem to have converged to produce multiple legends of Morgana.
