"Gravity Fist: Fierce Tiger!"

Just as Ul was about to say some parting words to her disciple Gray, an enormous Gravity Wave took the form of a ferocious giant tiger and lunged at Deliora, tearing into it.

In an instant, Deliora, the street beneath its feet and behind it, and the towering snow-capped mountains beyond the street all twisted before that terrifying Gravity Wave...

"Boom!!"

Then, amid a thunderous roar, Deliora was caught off guard and blasted straight into the sky by the terrifying Gravity Wave. Half the street and the snow-capped mountains rising into the clouds behind it were sent flying up alongside Deliora.

"The street... and the mountains... the peaks are all gone..."

Gray, with his messy black hair, stared at the vanished mountains with his mouth wide open, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"Wh-what astonishing magic power..."

Even Ul widened her eyes in shock when she saw the enormous Gravity Wave that had blasted Deliora, the street, and the mountain peaks into the sky together.

"Leave this to me!"

Accompanied by a somewhat youthful voice, an afterimage flashed past Ul and charged toward Deliora in the sky.

"Huff... huff... huff..."

Then Gray heard a bout of hurried breathing behind him.

"This is..."

When Gray heard the sound and tremblingly turned around, he saw a massive snow-white beast pressed close behind him, panting heavily. That deep breathing had come from the beast...

"Another demon..."

Gray looked at the beast, his face turning pale with fright.

"Gray..."

At the sight of the beast behind Gray, ice immediately condensed in Ul's hands.

"Ul, Gray, it's me! Don't be afraid, Big White won't hurt anyone!"

Just as Ul was about to make a move, a white figure emerged from atop the beast's head.

As though to prove the white figure's words, the huge beast lowered its head before Gray, stuck out its tongue, and licked him again and again.

"Uh..."

Gray looked blankly at the beast, then at the white figure atop its head, his eyes filled with confusion.

"Lyon?!" Ul was also stunned when she saw the white figure on the beast's head. However, she withdrew the magic she had been preparing to cast, and after confirming that the beast meant no harm, she asked the white figure atop its head—her other disciple, Lyon—"Lyon, didn't I tell you not to come?!"

"It's like this, Ul..."

Lyon was about to explain what had happened.

"Boom..."

Before he could finish, an explosion rang out from the sky. A black figure clasped his hands together, and countless flames and bolts of lightning instantly struck at Deliora in midair!

"Roar!!"

Unable to evade, Deliora immediately let out a pained howl.

"That person is?!"

Ul's pupils contracted sharply as she looked at the black figure in the sky. She could sense the figure's immense life force and magic power as vast as the sea.

"That's Brother Ywen. He's a Fairy Tail wizard, here to subdue Deliora!"

Standing atop the white giant bear's head, Lyon watched the figure continuously cast magic in the sky, his eyes sparkling with admiration.

"A Fairy Tail wizard..."

"Someone actually accepted the mission to subdue Deliora?!"

Hearing the familiar name of that guild, Ul's expression shifted. As a wizard, she knew Deliora's danger level—it was a mission beyond SS-rank, a level known as a Ten-Year Mission.

"Could it be that one of the Ten Wizard Saints has taken action?"

Ul looked solemn. In her view, the only people on this continent capable of dealing with Deliora were the powerful wizards ranked among the Ten Wizard Saints.

"Attach to the air: Solidification!"

"Attach to the air: Hardness!"

"Attach Magic: Sky Cage!"

In the sky, Ywen calmly continued casting magic on Deliora.

In an instant, the air around Deliora solidified. Deliora was trapped in the sky, and no matter how it moved, it could not break through Ywen's Attach Magic.

"Roar!!"

After several failed attempts to free its body from the air, Deliora opened its mouth, and endless cursed power immediately gathered toward it.

"Separate: Cursed Power!"

Ywen separated the power from Deliora as it prepared to unleash its attack. In truth, the idea for this move had come from Aileen, but Ywen had simply used it directly.

"Roar?!"

Deliora, who had been continuously gathering curse power, suddenly felt every last bit of it vanish from within his body. His eyes widened, and for the first time, an emotion other than rage appeared in that furious gaze—confusion.

"So this is the power demons use?"

Ywen looked at the ball of pitch-black energy in his hand and fell into thought.

"Heh..." The corner of Ywen's lips curled upward slightly. He softly said to Deliora, "Deliora, I'll be taking your power!"

"Enchant..."

As he spoke, Ywen directly enchanted that ball of black power into his own body.

"Since Dragon Slayer Magic was created by Aileen, and its principle is to enchant a dragon's power into a human body, granting humans the strength to contend with dragons, then Demon Slayer Magic and God Slayer Magic presumably work on the same principle. They enchant the power of demons and gods into humans, giving them the same constitution as demons and gods, allowing them to destroy demons and gods..."

Of course, Ywen was not certain whether his experiment would succeed. Originally, he had planned to separate the enchanted attribute if it failed.

But fortunately, Ywen succeeded...

The instant Ywen enchanted Devil Power into himself, his body became covered in black patterns, making him look like a ferocious demon.

"?!"

At the same time, Deliora, witnessing this scene, was completely stunned.

"Next comes the second step..."

Ywen remembered that the first generation of Slayer Magic had a major drawback. Just as dragon slayers would eventually become dragons, excessive use of Slayer Magic would ultimately turn its user into a member of the species they sought to destroy. So Ywen intended to eliminate that flaw, and the method was...

"Second enchantment..."

Ywen attempted to enchant the Devil Power within his body onto his Devil Fruit.

Ywen's inspiration for this came from the second-generation Dragon Slayer Mages. They implanted Dragon Slayer Lacrima—dragon hearts—into their bodies, allowing themselves to use Slayer Magic while ensuring they would not turn into dragons...

Devil Fruits were incredibly strange things. Every Devil Fruit was alive; while becoming one with its host, it retained its independence. This was coincidentally similar to Dragon Slayer Crystals...

So...

When Ywen saw that, in the Devil Fruit section of his system panel,

Paramecia Type: Weight-Weight Fruit: LV8(+)

had become...

Paramecia Type: Weight-Weight Fruit (Demon Slayer): LV8(+)

Ywen knew he had succeeded.

With that prefix, Ywen could use Demon-Slaying Power without restraint, without worrying about being assimilated by demonic power. As for whether the Devil Fruit itself would be assimilated, it already had "devil" in its name, so Ywen was not worried. Instead, he looked forward to seeing whether Demon Slayer Magic and Devil Fruits could produce some marvelous chemical reaction...

At the same time, Ywen could sense that the Devil Fruit's original level cap—level 10—had been successfully broken through after he enchanted its attribute. In other words, once Ywen raised his Devil Fruit to level 10, he could advance to even higher levels...
