But Nakaba literally showed us Meliodas destroying the Demon King's arm, and he even had the Demon King call Meliodas a 'source of destruction.'
You don’t need to erase existence to destroy the Demon King’s arm, nor do you need to be titled The Destroyer.
Possessing an very high level of raw offensive power is sufficient for that.
Also Do you think destroying the curses placed upon him and Elizabeth only required raw power, or a specific type of destroyer magic?
It was stated explicitly that possessing a power level equal to the DK/SD is sufficient to break the curses.
This is why Meliodas initially attempted to absorb the Ten Commandments, to reach that level of power without having to rely on his true magic.
Therefore, in terms of canon, all that is required to break the curses is to be at the power level of the DK/SD or higher.
So, how can you still reject the idea that his magic is a destroyer type? That makes no sense.
Who said I object to the possibility of it being a Destruction-Type?
I object to the notion of erasure of existence, a concept that has no basis whatsoever.
There is a vast difference between the two.
"Destruction-Type" is one of the nine categories of magic in this world, that
"allows the user to wield magical power with destructive properties, whether through natural forces like thunder or flame, or through an unnatural, dark force."
Do you have any idea how many types of Destruction-Type magic exist in this world? Do you think that all of them are erasure of existence too?
Just curious, what do you think his magic actually is?
We haven’t been given any information about it, other than the fact that Meliodas in this form is slightly stronger than the Demon King.
It might be a destruction type ability (which is likely, given the damage it dealt to the Demon King’s arm), but that’s all we know. Anything beyond that is just pure speculation or glazing.
More importantly, the core point is that, regardless of the nature of his power in this form, Meliodas true magic is simply just a bit stronger than the Demon King, and he wouldn’t stand a chance against Lancelot.
Some of you aren’t thinking logically, you’re looking at this through the lens of an fanboyish view.
Why would you think Nakaba-sensei would grant Meliodas an absolute hax ability, one that surpasses even those stronger than him?
You’re like someone arguing that Gowther hax could defeat any character in the entire verse.
Or even more similaire, what you doing is akin to how some One Piece fans, who arguing that Luffy’s Gear 5 possesses toon force and is a reality-warper limited only by his own imagination, when, in reality, he is at best island-tier
