Ben looked at Zeref with a grin before saying, "This is getting interesting. Don't you think so?"
"You are crazy." Zeref replied.
Ben smirked and said, "Heh, so it's crazy if I make that thing come here, but it's alright if you made it come to Ishgar? Such irritating double standards you have there. Well, what would I expect from someone who created demons that destroyed the world, but used them for his own empire? Or should I state the fact that you made them to kill yourself, but instead you use them like subordinates?"
"You said you hated Acnologia who endangered this world but aren't you yourself a danger to this world? In the past, I heard you say that humans are destroying the world. So tell me, who's an individual who caused more destruction in this world than you. You mentioned eradicating humans, but why don't you kill yourself? Ah, you said that you are immortal, so you can't die. Well, can you really not die or are you just not serious about killing yourself?"
"If you really want to die, then just fight Acnologia who you could never defeat in your 400 years of life. But I guess you just want to live longer and justify anything that you did. You always smiled and acted as if you loved your brother that you revived, Natsu. But if you really loved him, you won't allow him to die the moment he killed you, and you wouldn't even make him kill you in the first place."
"If you said that it's all because of the curse, then get the fuck out of my face! If I even had a chance to revive my brother, then I would do anything even if Ankhsheram gave me the worst curse. I would beat the crap out of that damn god and take his power so that my brother can have a real life. I would even beat the crap out of every god in this world if they tried to stop me. You are just full of shit, a piece of shit who thinks he is the most righteous." Ben angrily rambled.
Everyone, even Zeref was stunned by what Ben just said. It's the first time they heard him talk for so long and he was actually talking trash about their emperor. Ben didn't care if they were angry or pissed off because he was pissed off with Zeref.
He didn't know what Zeref had gone through, but he didn't care. Regardless of what Zeref had gone through, it didn't change the fact that his loved ones were in danger because of this guy. He doesn't care if villains were once good people, they still chose to be villains and that's more than enough reason to remove them.
"Acnologia will come soon, so I don't have time to play with you anymore. Let's wrap things up faster so that I can focus on the greatest threat." Ben said while clapping his hands.
Ben closed his eyes and a golden aura started covering his body. He opened his eyes and a bright gold magic circle appeared on each of them. Then a very wide magic circle appeared in the sky above them and covered the entire battlefield.
The Spriggan 12 and Zeref's eyes widened because they felt the immense power of that magic circle. They immediately try to stop it by attacking Ben, but their attacks just vanished before forming completely.
"It's useless. None of my enemies' spells can be activated when I do this." Ben said while opening his palms.
A bright gold orb appeared and Ben announced, "I invoke Fairy Law!"
The orb's light spread and covered the entire battlefield. Zeref knew about this spell, so he was stunned by the power and scale of this spell. He was sure that even it's creator, Mavis, couldn't make it this big and powerful.
Ben's Fairy Law spell injured every individual in the group. The weaker enemies die first and the stronger enemies were killed next. None of the soldiers can resist it because they were far weaker than Ben and this spell can't be blocked.
Although they were lucky that Ben used it against multiple enemies. This spell was only meant to be used against a single enemy. Using it against multiple enemies will take a toll on the caster and would be detrimental to their lifespan.
Ben's life force might be even higher than a dragon now, but it is still limited so he can't use Fairy Law to kill every single one of his enemies here. At the very least, he can kill over two thirds of Alvarez's soldiers and intimidate the rest.
He didn't go any further because he still needed a lot of power to fight Acnologia. Although there are still many soldiers, they won't continue to put up a fight. They were too afraid of him because Fairy Law broke their spirits even if it didn't kill them.
Even the Spriggan 12 felt intimidated by him for a moment. They snap out of it soon because they were strong enough to resist the fear. The only ones who can resist it after a while other than the Spriggan 12 were their close aids.
Zeref was the only one that wasn't affected, but he had a hunch that it could severely injure or might even kill him if Ben only targeted him. Ben would never do that because it would be too easy for Zeref to die. He needed to suffer before dying to feel the pain of every innocent soul who died because of him.
"What kind of spell was that?!" A surprised Brandish asked.
"That was a Law spell." August answered.
"Oh, it seems you can do that too." Bloodman said with a smirk.
August was silent for a moment before correcting him. "No. That spell is way too complicated. I can't copy it just by seeing it once as there are several steps to it's activation."
The rest of the Spriggan 12 were once again surprised, but Zeref wasn't as he knew Ben too well. He must've modified the spell and made it stronger. He was right, Ben modified all three of the Great Fairy Spells to make them better and stronger.
The basics were still the same, but Ben modified them well enough to prevent them from being copied even by high-ranking mages like August. Ben himself is a Copy Magic user although he preferred to use it to know the mechanisms of his opponent's magic and learn magic easier, not out right copy them.
That's why he knew full well what it took to copy a spell, so he modified some important spells and made them difficult to be copied even by high-ranking mages. The drawback is that these spells will be more difficult to learn, but they're stronger than the original version, so it was a fair trade off.
"Rather than trying to copy my spell, why don't you do something about me?" Ben asked after suddenly appeared in front of Bloodman.
The surprised Bloodman didn't even have time to move because Ben grabbed a hold of his face.
Ben grinned and chanted, "Devil Ignition!"
Bloodman suddenly felt his body temperature increase to an unimaginable degree. He screamed as his blood literally boiled and his flesh was cooked. His body turned bright red before dark red fire came out of every hole in his body.
Everyone else watched in horror as Bloodman's body was burned by the dark red fire. His scream of agony sent shivers down one's spine because it sounds very painful. Ben's Sun Devil Slayer Magic will torment demons based on their evil deeds.
"The more evil deeds you have committed, the more pain you'll suffer from this spell. From your scream alone, you have committed many evil deeds. Demons that didn't commit evil deeds wouldn't scream like you, so it's not a matter of race anymore." Ben said.
He created this spell after learning a lot about souls, then he integrated it into his Sun Devil Slayer Magic. He did that to make that lethal to not only demons. His enemies were mostly criminals that committed a lot of evil deeds and he really wanted to punish them this way.
But the main reason is that he wanted to use this on Zeref and Acnologia. He didn't know how many innocent lives were lost because of these two, so he wanted them to feel the suffering of those innocent souls first. Ben's not a hero, but he certainly hated those who killed innocents because it reminded him of his parents and brother.
Bloodman was burning right in front of them, but no one dared to step forward and save him. Other than their low camaraderie, the gaze Ben gave them is terrifying. His gaze told them that they would end up like Bloodman if they stepped forward right now.
Even Zeref didn't step forward because he wasn't sure he could save Bloodman. Also, he didn't think there was a need to save the Etherious. He can just make another one later if he needs to.
In the end, Bloodman was reduced to ashes after suffering for a few minutes. No one really stepped forward during that time to save him. Ben was really disappointed with them, but he expected it from these people.
They would rather sacrifice their comrades if it meant they could learn about Ben's power. But they'll never get the chance to find out when Acnologia came there and it won't take long because Ben already felt that calamity's magic power nearby.
