The fight with Deliora still goes on with Ben thinking of the stupidest way to defeat Deliora. But then he realizes that this is his chance to test some magic that he learned in the Magic Library.
He trained some new magic like Clone Magic and Teleportation. But he mostly used the magic that he scanned there to improve the magic that he already has. His priority was strengthening his Dragon & Devil Slayer Magic.
"It's a rare chance for me to use my Devil Slayer Magic, so let's just spam my spells on this dude. He should be tough, right?" ponders Ben excitedly.
A beam shot from Deliora wakes him up and he evades it frantically because he doesn't focus. He gets pissed at Deliora, but he knows it's his mistake, so he calms himself. It's a good chance to test his spells on an opponent with a tough body, after all.
Ben shapes his fingers on both hands like pistols and small dark purple magic circles appear in front of them. But Deliora shoots another energy beam at him so he ducks and runs to the front very fast instead of the side.
Deliora can't see him because the beam blocks Deliora's sight. Ben grins and starts to shoot gravity bullets at Deliora who can't see him coming.
"Sun Devil's Gravity Bullets!"
The gravity bullets hit Deliora's chest then Ben moves his aim upwards. They hit Deliora's throat then his jaw while he still shoots his energy beam. Ben's attacks make Deliora stop his attack and take some steps back because he is hurt.
These bullets are much stronger than the bullets from Ben's revolvers. But the revolvers still have an advantage, he doesn't need to use his MP to use them. Besides, this is also a test to upgrade the revolvers.
He will upgrade them but he needs to know if this spell is strong enough to be enchanted on the revolvers. The basic spell needs to be strong enough if he wants his revolvers to be strong too, that's for sure.
Deliora uses his hands to block Ben's attacks but Ben doesn't care and just keeps shooting. Ben then changes his bullets' element to the other elements. He wants to test which element has the best effect on his Deliora.
"So the solar energy still has the best effect like usual. But it uses more energy, so the most ideal is the 2nd strongest, the light element. It uses less MP but has better penetration, so the damage is good," concludes Ben after shooting using every element.
Ben looks at Deliora's hands that have some small holes in them. They're the result of the bullets that hit & penetrated them. But they aren't fatal because of Deliora's massive size. Such small wounds like those are mere sting for Deliora.
That's what Ben thought, but Deliora still felt hurt and now he get angry. He roars and releases his strong Magic Power to show his strength. Ben looks at it and inspects it rather than getting scared or impressed.
"Hmm, so he still has this much power even after being sealed for 10 years. No wonder he could be a catastrophe in the past and destroyed many places. I wonder how strong he was before being sealed and if I can defeat him with my current strength," ponders Ben.
Deliora suddenly jumps at Ben and sends a punch with his right hand. Ben evades it easily by jumping back but Deliora has anticipated it because Ben kept evading his attacks before. He shoots an energy beam that he has prepared to Ben who is still midair.
"Good strategy, but not enough. Gravity Pull!" says Ben.
Ben uses his magic to pull him to the left and evades Deliora's attack again. Deliora wants to control his beam to chase Ben, but Ben moves faster.
"Sun Devil's Light Scream!" chants Ben.
Ben shoots a reddish-yellow light energy beam from his mouth. The light beam is narrow like a laser, unlike the other elements that have a bigger size. It's also very fast and has the strongest penetration power.
The light beam hits Deliora's right shoulder and makes a 30 cm hole that pierces through the right shoulder. Ben looks at the hole and nods to see it make a clean cut on Deliora's body. It can even cut the bones cleanly, so the penetration of his light element has increased a lot.
"ROAR!" screams Deliora in pain, but Ben doesn't care about it.
"The penetration & speed is good, but the size & inflicted damage is quite small on a giant opponent like him. But if I can hit a vital area like the heart, then it can kill him instantly. If I shot it on human-sized creatures, then a big hole will appear in their body and they'll surely die. I don't know the effect on those with the tougher body than Deliora though," says Ben after inspecting the hole from afar.
Deliora gets angrier and starts to spam his energy beam and move it around anywhere. Ben changes to Light Mode and moves faster than before. He evades Deliora's attacks and gets closer to the giant demon.
"Now for the close combat power test," says Ben while standing right in front of Deliora.
Ben coats his right hand with solar power that looks like a reddish golden flame. His left hand is coated with a very red flame, his right foot with reddish-yellow light, and his left foot with dark purple energy.
He uses all his elements except heat & plasma on his limbs. He will test their power in close combat which will also use his physical power. He wants to test his current physical power that finally can grow again.

"4 Elements Rampage!" says Ben as he gets into a stance.
Ben jumps to Deliora's body while the demon still shooting the energy beam. He starts with a right-hand punch at Deliora's stomach with full strength.
*BAM*
Deliora's stomach caved in, making the demon arches his body and releases the air in his lung. As Deliora's body arches, Ben sends a right foot kick to Deliora's jaw to the left. Deliora's head is sent to the left and he almost falls, but he stops it with his hand.
Ben doesn't give Deliora any chance and attack again. He keeps attacking Deliora with all his elements-coated limbs. Punches, kicks, elbows, knees, dropkick, every attack variant that he can use. He doesn't stop and keep attacking so Deliora doesn't have time to attack back.
After 5 minutes, Ben finally stops his attacks. He has tested the plasma & heat elements too on his previous attacks. Now he has good close combat attack power data that has been recorded by AI Chip.
Deliora's body is full of bruises now. He has just gotten freed from the prison that trapped him for 10 years, but a teenager is beating him up just when he gets his freedom as if he is a punching bag. Such a miserable fate for the Demon from Book of Zeref.
It makes him very angry now, angrier than before. So he releases his Magic Power again, but now his body grows bigger. His fangs, claws, & hair grow longer. Then his skin turns red and so are his eyes.
A dark malicious aura covers Deliora's body and it can be felt by everyone on the island. Deliora has transformed as if he is in berserk mode. Other Mages on the island felt a little fear in their heart, but Ben is getting more excited.
His Devil Slayer power feels challenged. It makes his blood boils and he release his full power too unconsciously. Ben enters his Devil Slayer's Sun Mode unconsciously too. Reddish-golden flame covers his body and it shapes like a demon.
"HAHAHA, DON'T DISAPPOINT ME, DELIORA!" shouts Ben as he rushes at Deliora.
Deliora shoots a very strong beam toward Ben. Ben doesn't evade it and raises the power on his right hand. He punches the beam with a full-powered punch.
"Sun Devil's Solar Fist!"
*BOOM*
Their attacks clashed and Ben's punch push Deliora's beam to the center. They get into a stalemate for a moment before the clash makes a big explosion that pushed both of them back.
Ben grins as he stops himself, "Nice, you are getting much stronger. Now I can enjoy this fight."
