I just don't want to delay the first time after that.

Do you mean the first message is to be delayed, but not the messages after the first one?

Suppose you have the delay set to 10 seconds. If the first message arrives at time 0 seconds, then you want that released at time 10 seconds If the second message arrives at time 5 seconds, when to you want it released? If the third arrives at time 20, when you want it released?

The delay node can be set up to respond to msg.delay, but if msg.delay is missing it uses the time specified in the node. So you could use flow context and change nodes to set msg.delay = 0 after the first message has passed.
