The fight with Deliora dragged on as Ben continued thinking of a stupid way to defeat Deliora. But then he realized this was his chance to test some magic he learned in the Magic Library.
He practiced some new magic like Clone Magic and Teleportation Magic. But he mostly used the magic he scanned there to merely improve the magic that he already has. His priority was strengthening his Dragon and 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?" Ben asked excitedly.
A beam shot from Deliora wakes him up and he evades it frantically because he doesn't focus. This pissed him off, but he knew it was his mistake, so he calmed himself down. It's a good chance to test his spells on an opponent with a tough body.
Ben pointed 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 blocked his sight. Ben grinned and started to shoot gravity bullets at Deliora who couldn't see him coming.
"Sun Devil Gravity Bullets!"
The gravity bullets hit Deliora's chest then Ben moved his aim upwards. They hit Deliora's throat, then his jaw while he still shot 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 magic power to use them. Besides, this is also a chance to test his 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, that's for sure.
Deliora uses his hands to block Ben's attacks but he didn't care and just kept shooting. Ben then changed his bullets' elements to the other elements. He wants to test which element has the best effect on 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 magic power, but has better penetration, so the damage is good." Ben concluded after shooting every element.
Ben looks at Deliora's hands that have some small holes in them. They're the result of the bullets that penetrated them. But they aren't fatal due to Deliora's massive size. Such small wounds are like stings to Deliora.
That's what Ben thought at least, but Deliora still felt pain and now he was angry. He roars and released his strong magic power to show his strength. Ben looks at it and inspects it rather than being scared or impressed.
"Hmm, so he still has this much power even after being sealed for 10 years. No wonder he was considered a catastrophe in the past and caused a lot of destruction. I wonder how strong he was before being sealed in Iced Shell and if I can defeat him with my current power level." Ben noted.
Deliora suddenly jumped at Ben and threw a punch with his right hand. Ben easily evaded it 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 hit Ben while he was still in midair.
"Good strategy, but not good enough. Gravity Pull!" Ben used his magic to pull him to the left and evade Deliora's attack again. Deliora wanted to control his beam to chase Ben, but he moved faster.
"Sun Devil Light Scream!" Ben chanted.
Ben fired a beam of reddish-yellow light energy 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 hit Deliora's right shoulder and made a 30 cm hole that pierced through his right shoulder. Ben looks at the hole and nods to see if it made a clean cut on Deliora's body. It can even cut the bones cleanly, so the penetration of his light element increased exponentially.
"ROAR!" Deliora screamed in pain, but Ben didn't care.
"The penetration size is good, but the damage is quite small on a opponent like him. If I can hit a vital area like the heart, then it will kill him instantly. If I shot it at 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 a tougher body than Deliora though." Ben said as he inspected the hole from afar.
Deliora got angrier and started to spam his energy beam and move it around everywhere. Ben changed to Light Mode and moved faster than before. He evades Deliora's attacks and got closer to the giant demon.
"Now for the close combat power test." Ben said while standing right in front of Deliora.
Ben coats his hand with solar power that looked like a reddish golden flame. His left hand is coated in a dark red flame, his right foot with reddish-yellow light and his left foot with dark purple energy.
He uses all his elements except heat and 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 can finally grow again.

"4 Element Rampage!" Ben said as he assumed a stance.
Ben jumps towards Deliora's body while the demon still fired the energy beam. He threw a punch with his right hand at Deliora's stomach with all his strength.
BAM*
Deliora's stomach caved in, making the demon arch his body and release the air in his lungs. As Deliora's body arched, Ben launched a kick with his right foot towards Deliora's jaw. Deliora's head was sent to the left and he almost falls, but he stops it with his hand.
Ben didn't give Deliora any chance to recover and attacked again. He kept attacking Deliora with all his element-coated limbs. Punches, kicks, elbows, knees, dropkick, every attack variant that he can use. He doesn't stop so Deliora didn't have time to attack back.
After 5 minutes, Ben finally stops his attacks. He then tested the plasma and heat elements on his previous attacks. Now he has good close combat attack power data that was recorded by A.I Chip.
Deliora's body was covered in bruises now. He had just been released from the prison that contained him for 10 years, but a teenager is beating him up just when he obtained his freedom as if he was a punching bag. Such a miserable fate for a demon from the Book of Zeref.
It makes him very angry now, angrier than before. So he released his magic power again, but now his body got bigger. His fangs, claws and hair grow longer. Then his skin turned 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 had transformed as if he was going berserk. Other mages on the island felt a little fear in their heart, but Ben was getting pumped.
His Devil Slayer Magic feels challenged. It made his blood boil and he released his full power unconsciously. Ben entered his Devil Slayer's Sun Mode unconsciously as well. A reddish-golden flame covered his body and it was shaped like a demon.
"HA HA HA, DON'T DISAPPOINT ME, DELIORA!" Ben shouted as he rushed at Deliora.
Deliora fired a very strong beam at Ben. He didn't bother to evade it and raised the power on his right hand. He punched the beam with a full-force punch.
"Sun Devil Solar Fist!"
BOOM*
Their attacks clashed and Ben's punch pushed Deliora's beam to the center. There was a brief stalemate before the clash generated a large explosion that pushed both of them back.
Ben grinned as he stopped himself. "Nice, you are getting much stronger. Now I can enjoy this fight."
