After realising some things, I figured out this could be a great battle! These are the reasons:
Main reasons
1.- Both are fire-related guys. In Anime/Manga is usual from same element individuals wanting to battle each other.
2.- Both are probably going to be in the same place and at the same time.
3.- Both have (If I recall correctly) a power related with Velgrynd’s.
Others (less likely)
4.- Jahil has this “implanting soul” thing which takes over enemy’s bodies (with weak or weakened ego’s) and Benimaru has this Will Control skill (seriously the first time I saw it was like WTF what’s wrong with this shitty skill, well now maybe it has a chance to shine), which make them a good battle pair.
5.- Among the strongest subordinates of Rimuru’s (along with Diablo, Zegion and Demoness trio, as Rimuru mentioned) Benimaru is the only one who doesn’t have space/time control. Since Jahil’s power do possess it (can distort space-time) this is a nice chance to get it. How? I don't know... however, If Benimaru gets this power in LN’s like he does later in WN’s this just looks like the right time.
Could he grow stronger? What do you think?
