Ehit

Ehit (エヒト) was the main antagonist of both "Arifureta: From Commonplace to World's Strongest" and "Arifureta Zero".

Ehit was the god, who ruled over Tortus through the doctrine passed through various disciples. Ehit would use everyone as disposable game pieces on a game board, aka, Tortus; and enjoyed playing with the lives of people while leading them straight to their doom until humanity turned against him after the truth was revealed by both Aiko and Liliana.

Appearance
Ehit's appearance when the heroes were summoned was that of a being of light in a humanoid shape, like a soul. The reason Ehit existed as a soul was because over the course of millenniums, Ehit used the knowledge from his previous world to convert the faith of the people into power to achieve a sort of immortality, As a result, however, Ehit's body was lost and had become an existence of only a soul.

After Ehit possessed the body of Yue, changes were made to it which caused her to physically age into an adult.

Personality
Ehit was originally kind, or at least, considerate enough to help people in need, as seen when along with the fellow survivors who escaped to Tortus, saw how people were terrorized by magical beasts and monsters. Ehit, along with their fellow comrades, decided to help the people of Tortus to fend off the threats, and also gave them knowledge so that they could develop and prosper. It was even rumoured that Ehit had used the miracle elixir Ambrosia to heal the masses.

But over the course of millenniums after achieving immortality and becoming a soul-like existence, Ehit's mentality started to change, especially after the fellow survivors started to give up on their lives and slowly accepted death. All alone, Ehit's mind slowly corroded and started to feel enjoyment by seeing the suffering of the very people he once helped and saved. Ehit developed an immensely cruel, hypocrite, psychotic and sadistic personality which was filled with malice and contempt, becoming a psychotic Evil God who manipulated both Humans and Demons of Tortus to fight millienias of brutal wars for his own twisted entertainments by posing as two different individual gods which the two races worshiped as Hajime had correctly guessed. As stated by Noint, Ehit derived the greatest joy by seeing people try their best, only to be thwarted and failed in absolute despair when they had reached their goal. As shown when in past, after the Klarus Dragonman tribe had succeeded in achieving world peace after centuries of painstaking efforts by building a paradise Kingdom where all races lived in harmony as well as creating a global alliance between countries which will helped each other in times of need, Ehit manipulated his worshipers both Humans and Demons to betrayed the Dragonman by declaring them as a race of heretical Monster destroying the multi racial Kingdom the Dragonman had worked so hard to built even driving them into hiding for centuries. When his archenemies the Liberators had been ready to start a revolution to overthrow Ehit after immense efforts, Ehit cleverly manipulated his own worshipers the very people the Liberators wished to protect to turn against them, ultimately forcing to part ways and built the Great Labyrinths to hide themselves in. Ehit also wanted his so-called summoned "heroes" to die to their miserable deaths and to ensure they will never leave Tortus back to their world alive. Ehit also supported Eri and Hiyama in betraying their classmates due to finding their intentions and actions amusing.

Ehit's ego also inflated to extreme level, which developed into a selfish, narcissist and prideful nature. Ehit felt joy in staying one-step ahead against the enemies with the designed plans, but doesn't like it when the plans don't go the way as needed. Ehit viewed humanity to be weak and playthings as he is toying with their lives.

Ehit is also a failure-intolerant who holds no uses for his weak pawns and disposed them of their uses as a sign of disappointment to himself as his pawns brought nothing but shame upon him so miserably such as Hiyama was killed by Hajime and his greatest pawn, Kouki gotten defeated by Hajime so easily in the Frost Caverns. Despite Kouki has failed him for the last time, he adapted a use for him by manipulating his newly-made servant, Eri of willing to give Kouki to her as a "prize" for her services.

Ehit hold a lust for immortality as he once tried to search for Yue and possessed her as a "host body". When learned Yue is with Hajime, Ehit send his minions to seize her. After Eri retrieved Yue, Ehit temporarily possessed Yue's body which caused Hajime to turn into his rage-consumed state. While using Yue's body, Ehit doesn't have a complete control of it which becomes the cause to his death when Yue's stronger willpower freed herself from his control leaving Ehit vulnerable as Hajime kills the false god and destroyed his "chessboard of life" for all eternity.

Ehit is manipulative liar who deceived humans that beastmen were just an "inferior" species. His beliefs of protecting humanity against Garland was just a setup which would lend his pawns to their deaths. While the truth has been revealed, Ehit doesn't have anyone else to manipulate after humanity turned against him.

However, Ehit has revealed himself to be a coward as he hold a fear of death or his true nature revealed which is the legacy of the Liberators that had caused him to develop a nature which needs to do anything necessary to stay alive. He fears Hajime worse than the Liberators due to his unconcern for Tortus and its people when he simply unleashed a massacre and genocide towards both of Ehit's Human and Demon worshipers as he wanted to eliminate him and his companions at all costs by sending Noint to assassinate Hajime. He shown in a sheer of terror when Hajime killed Noint and used her body to revive Kaori as an insult to the so-called "god". When his true nature has been revealed, he shown in fears of his Human worshipers has turned against him as well losing the balance to his little "chessboard of life and death" for immortality. He is very paranoid attempted to do whatever means to stay alive by attempting to unleash an omnicide by wiping out not only the Human race, but beastmen race as well to ensure his reign as a "god" continues to proceed by sending out 500 Apostles.

Background
Ehit was from a world where society had become highly advanced and possessed magic that gave them control over their very universe. In time, however, their overuse of this power led to the devastation of society. With no other options, the rulers of this civilization, including Ehit, saved themselves by teleporting to the world of Tortus.

After seeing how primitive the people were living in their new world, Ehit and the others sought to rule over them in order to advance their civilization to what it once was for them. However, some of Ehit’s comrades sought to co-exist with Tortus’ population in peace. This led to a war between the two sides, with the peaceful faction siding with the natives of Tortus. During this conflict, Ehit fought against Uralt, who was the first avatar of the Grand Tree that acted as a branch for the World Tree in True World Astral, as well as her chose Hero, Darrion Kaus. In an effort to defeat Ehit, Uralt transferred her spirit into Darrion's Holy Sword artifact. However, they were defeated, with Darrion having to pledged himself to serve Ehit in order to protect Uralt. Furthermore, Ehit confronted a former comrade who sought to save the water spirit Uldia from captivity, whom Ehit’s side was using as a means to power some of their weapons. Ehit pleaded her to surrender, to which she refused. In response, Ehit attacked her with a spear of light that mortally wounded her. Even so, she resumed her efforts into freeing the captured spirit, to which Ehit also resumed in attacking her with various magical spells. The woman’s will to complete her mission was so strong that she created a barrier comprised of her strong will that it blocked all of Ehit’s attacks. Even so, she failed to free Uldia due to succumbing to her injuries from Ehit’s first attack. Afterwards, Ehit split apart of small piece of his soul to guard Uldia’s chamber. In the end, Ehit’s side won after killing all their former allies (while also severally altering Tortus’ topography due to having killed the guardian spirits that governed the land).

After thousands of years, when Tortus’ society had advanced considerably through the use of magic and technology, Ehit’s allies sought to end their long lives, believing that they had done enough for civilization. Unable to understand and accept their course of action, Ehit became the last one remaining, and continued to rule over Tortus alone. One day, after seeing the people of Tortus continuously praying towards him, Ehit decided to destroy their society. The devastation had such a profound impact on Ehit that it became the start of a continuous cycle where he would create new civilizations for his worshippers, and then destroy them for pleasure This would go on countless years. A religion in Tortus, the Holy Church, was created in order to aid Ehit in this task.

Eventually, Ehit’s physical body withered away, despite his best efforts to sustain it through the use of magic and technology. Furthermore, his soul had grown so powerful due to the energy he had amassed from his worshippers, that no normal body could properly contain it. In order to keep his spirit alive, Ehit created a pocket deminsion to reside it, known as The Sanctuary, by destroying all life in Tortus’ western region, which would later be known as the Gruen Desert,  and using the mana there to create his new realm.

In an attempt to obtain a new body, Ehit experimented by artificially merging humans with various monsters. This ended up leading to the creation of the various races the would inhabit Tortus (beastsmen, demons, dragonmen, vampires), as well as many monsters. Ehit even created a new artificial race, apostles, that was based on the appearance of his former ally. However, not one of them could sustain Ehit’s soul for too long, and would be destroyed after a short while. As such, Ehit continued to manipulate these races to fight each other in a constant cycle of war, until a proper vessel would appear.

One day, Ehit's divine oracle from the Holy Church Belta Lievre accidentally came into contact with one of Ehit's apostles, and saw they true nature of the god she and her religion revered. This prompted Ehit to have Belta killed in order to keep what she knew a secret from the rest of the world, while telling a surprised Belta that this was akin to discarding a "toy". Belta, however, survived thanks to the intervention of Laus Barn. Ehit was actually aware of what had transpired and had allowed it to proceed, in the hopes that it would lead to something interesting. This would come true, as Belta would become the founder of an organization that would directly oppose the Holy Church: the Liberators. Belta, however, was killed once more, and replaced by Miledi Reisen. After 15 years, the Liberators launched an attack against the Holy Church’s Main Cathedral, with the intention to destroy Ehit. After a fierce battle, they decimated the church’s forces and destroyed their main base, but just when it seemed that they were on the verge of winning the support of the people, Ehit suddenly intervened and attempted to magically compel the Liberators’ seven Ancient Magic users to kneel, but they managed to resist. Disappointed by this turn of events, Ehit summoned a massive army of apostles to attack the Liberators. At first, they managed to wipe them out, but Ehit just continued to summon more of them to attack. They attempted to locate Ehit through the source of where the apostles were being summoned from, but were unsuccessful. As the apostle army continued to increase, the Liberators were forced to retreat.

In retaliation for the Liberators’ actions, Ehit used the apostles to spread out and magically compel the people of Tortus to hunt down and kill them. After several months, most of the Liberators were killed in the span of a few days. Miledi and her six comrades made one last stand against Ehit, and attempted to kill him after they had created the means to find and destroy him through the use of concept magic. They breached Ehit’s defences and were prepared to attack, but they were forced to stand down after seeing Ehit use many citizens as hostages that served as living shields, that would jump to their deaths at any moment. As the Liberators redirected their efforts to rescue them, Ehit possessed a little girl that they saved, and destroyed one of the concept magic arrows that initially enabled them to breach his realm. As the portal to the Sanctuary closed, Ehit praised them for their efforts, to which he then warned them that the hypnosis would continue to plague the people of Tortus for as long the Liberators were alive, and that it would even compel them to kill everyone else. He then demonstrated this by having those nearby point their weapons at themselves. With the means of reaching the Sanctuary now lost, the Liberators were forced to retreat.

Several days later, Ehit was approached by Miledi inside one of the church’s temples, and proposed to make a deal with him. Intrigued by this offer, Ehit took possession of the temple priest, and the two of them came up with a agreement: The seven Ancient Magic users would spend seven years time to create seven Labyrinths around the world, where they would each be secluded for the rest of their lives, but they could pass on each of their magics to those people, who in the future, might want to renew their fight. Furthermore, Miledi would be executed after seven years, to symbolize the Liberators’ end, and then have her soul confined to a golem body in order to watch over her labyrinth. In return, Ehit agreed to end the world-wide hypnosis, in the hopes of coming across a new pawn to play with in the future. Once they finished negotiating, Ehit mocked Miledi for  choosing to accept such an act, but she insisted that she had faith that her comrades would support her in her choice. After seven years, Miledi was publicly executed by the church by being burned at the stake, thus signalling the end of the Liberators. Although the Labyrinths they created would become well known throughout Tortus for ages to come.

May years later, Ehit had brought about the destruction of the Dragonman Kingdom, by decreeing that they were heretics.

Approximately 200 years afterwords, Ehit discovered the perfect candidate to serve as his new vessel: Princess Aletia Galdea Vesperitio Avatarl of the vampire nation Avatarl. In an attempt to lure her, Ehit decided to have the princess become the Holy Church’s Divine Oracle, as an alleged sign of peace. However, before Ehit could obtain her, she was presumed to have been killed by her uncle Dienleed in a bid to usurp her thrown. Enraged at having lost his new vessel, Ehit wiped out Avatarl, as well as several nearby nations.

300 years following the extinction of the vampires, a demon named Freid Bagwa had managed to conquer one of the the Liberators’ Labyrinths, and had acquired magic that enabled him to control monsters. Knowing that this would tip the balance of power in the demons’ favor in their war against humanity, Ehit sought to even things out by summoning a hero from another world that would aid them in their fight (while also hoping to find a new suitable vessel for his soul). This search lead to the discovery of the Earth high school student Kouki Amanogawa. Ehit was successful at summoning Kouki to Tortus, though the rest of his class was also summoned unintentionally, due to Ehit’s difficulty with using magic on another world while being confined within the Sanctuary.



Relationships

 * Alva - Alva was Ehit's fellow god and retainer. Alva was very loyal to his master. When Alva was killed by Hajime, Ehit experienced immense fear.
 * True Apostles - The True Apostles were Ehit's personal servants, as he send them for assignments disguised as nuns for various missions such as brainwashing his worshippers in particular various political leaders in order to continue religious wars for his own entertainment as well as killing all those who posed a threat to his games. After Noint's death and failed mission in eliminating Hajime, Ehit send all of his Apostles to assist Freid to kill Hajime and his party to ensure they'll never leave Tortus and return back to Japan alive. Unfortunately, he shown in great fear after his true apostles failed their task and all of them got killed by Hajime.
 * Eri Nakamura - Despite not meeting her, Ehit found Eri amusing and viewed her as an interesting piece and allowed her to work for him to kill her classmates and turn them in undead slaves. After the undead slaves and Hiyama's deaths by Hajime, Ehit is willing to meet Eri as he willing to make her of his uses against her classmates While meeting Eri, Ehit undergone Eri to become an apostle hybrid for her to continually working for him. He manipulated Eri in her desire of having Kouki as a "prize" for her. After captured Yue and possessed her body, Ehit deemed Eri to be worthy of his uses against Hajime and their classmates. While her defeated by Suzu Taniguchi, Eri chose to commit suicide by exploding herself in her last loyalty for Ehit. Ehit however, doesn't care about Eri and viewed her as a pawn.
 * Liberators - Ehit's archenemies, the Liberators had learned of Ehit's true nature as an Evil God as well as the fact he had been manipulating the people of Tortus both Humans and Demons to fight and kill each other. Due to having witnessed Ehit's worshippers commiting countless gruesome atrocities from fighting brutal religious wars to sacrificing innocent people just to expressed their devotion to Ehit as well as having the personally suffered from Ehit's tyranny. The Liberators held absolute hatred for the Evil God with Miledi refering him as a rotten scumbag and had worked tirelessly to overthrow him. However, Ehit gleefully manipulated his own victims, his devoted worshippers of both Humans and Demons whom the Liberators were seeking to protect to turn against by branding them as heretics who tried to destroyed the world. And thus the Liberators failed and were forced into hiding themselves in various parts of the World, creating Great Labyrinths as trials for those who could conquered them in hopes of their successors realized their dream of overthrowing Ehit until their hope has came true when Hajime slayed Ehit and destroyed his "game of death" forever.
 * Hajime Nagumo - Ehit's latest archenemy and killer from his summoned heroes, at first, Ehit thought little of Hajime, simply gave him a common non combat Job Class of Synergist without any other blessings such as superhumanly enhanced abilities and a variety of skills as Hajime's classmates had. After Hajime fell into the Orcus Dungeon and succeeded in conquering it, Hajime learnt from Oscar about Ehit's true nature and thus refused to rejoined his classmates and aid the Holy Church and Heligh Kingdom in their war against Demons due to realizing that the war that Ehit summoned them to participate in was simply another twisted entertainment of his and Ehit had in reality summoned them to Tortus to be pawns in his mad game of death. Hajime proved himself to be a far greater threat to Ehit than the Liberators themselves not only due to Hajime newfound immense power, but also his complete disinterest in the well being of the people of Tortus. Ehit's method of turning his worshipers on those who go against him failed to worked on Hajime as unlike the Liberators, Hajime could not care less about Tortus and its people due to his new ruthless personality who is perfectly contend to massacre every last one of his worshipers be they Human or Demons if they come after him at Ehit's orders proven when Hajime and his party massacred a majority of Freid's army along with Ishtar Langbard and the bishops of the Holy Church in the Heligh Kingdom when they tried to attacked Hajime at Ehit's instigation. Ehit thus sent one of his God Apostle Noint to kill Hajime only for Hajime to succeed in slaying Noint, as a last insult, Hajime used Noint body as a vessel for Kaori as well as managed to exposed the truth of a non existent benevolent Ehit that villianized the real Ehit as a new Evil God who has posed as the benevolent Ehit, effectively turning the Humans of Tortus who were supposed to be his devoted worshipers to turned against the false god himself with the help of Aiko and princess Liliana. In the final battle, Hajime fought Ehit (while in take over Yue's body until he got separate from her body by her own freewill) and later killed the false god to end his "chessboard of life and death" forever. After killing Ehit, Hajime earn his newly reputation from his classmates as the "God Slaying Demon King" meaning he can kill any deities or immortal beings.
 * Kouki Amanogawa - Ehit had chose Kouki to be a potential vessel thus blessed him to be the strongest out of his summoned Heroes by giving him the Job of Hero as well as having the highest stats and most amount of Skills out of his classmates. Kouki due to his misguided sense of justice and inability to differentiate between good and evil proved to be one of Ehit's easiest to manipulate pawns, having trained hard in preparation to participate in his war, even attempted to recruit Hajime's extremely powerful party members, Yue, Shea and Tio to joined him in fighting for Ehit. Hajime even stated Kouki will never want to believed that Ehit whom the Humans had worshiped and had also specially chosen him to be the Hero is in reality an Evil God and all his efforts in fighting for Ehit are meaningless and would even get angry at Hajime for supposedly villianize Ehit, a fact which Kouki could not denied. However, after learning from Aiko of Ehit's true nature as an evil god and his manipulative schemes of using him and his classmates as pawns for his game of death including the fact that Eri had personally exposed how Ehit had helped her in betraying them by sending Noint to abduct Aiko and brainwashed King Eliheid and his nobles during her death trap, Kouki despite his misguided sense of justice, begrudgingly forced to accept the truth of Ehit's evil nature and thus lost all of the his trace of respects for the God in his atrocities. When Kouki was corrupted by his trial in the Schnee Labyrinth, Kouki having decided to misinterpreted everything to suit his delusional justice chose to believe Hajime had been slandering Ehit ruining his glory as the chosen hero of Tortus, had continually willing to fulfill his useless heroism by killing Hajime and take his harem to "save" the world in Ehit's name but got easily defeated again. After his second defeat, Ehit revealed to Kouki as his valuable pawn for his "chessboard of life" before rediscovered Yue. When Amanogawa has failed him for the last time, Ehit now deemed Kouki to be useless to him as he is too weak to be of any real use to him in his upcoming final battle against Hajime after he captured Yue and temporarily possessed her body. Ehit has instead found new use in Kouki by using him to manipulate his new servant Eri Nakamura by giving him to her as her "prize" for serving him.
 * Yue - Ehit merely viewed Yue as a "host body" to possess due to her immortality. However, Yue's people has sealed her within the Oscus Labyrinth to ensure he will never search for her. While discovered Yue is one of Hajime's harems, Ehit decided to capture her. After Eri captured Yue, Ehit temporarily possessed her body before his upcoming final battle against Hajime. In his fight with Hajime, Yue was able free herself from Ehit's influence which gave Hajime the upper hand as he successfully killed Ehit and demolished his "chessboard of life and death" once and all. Following his death, Yue obtained all of Ehit's powers.

Powers & Abilities

 * Magic Mastery - Ehit was shown to be extremely skilled in magic, having completely mastered all seven Ancient Magics (and presumably concept magic) brought from his dying world, to the point that he could easily perform godlike spells and feats normally impossible for regular "mortals" to accomplish. His power was so immense that the majority of Tortus's local populace stood no hope of containing his being due to the sheer might of his powers. The only exceptions being Yue and Kouki, who were the only beings that stood any chance of hosting him and surviving. This is considered incredibly amazing due the fact that Yue was considered an extremely rare, born only once, anomaly among the already extremely powerful vampir] race and Kouki being an otherworlder summoned from a foreign world. Ehit was also known to have been the one to give each of the Hero Party members their unique job classes via magic.

 * Despite the overwhelming number of people that once worshipped Ehit, an apparition of him does not exist in Fairy World due to Tortus' World Tree Brach having been cut off from the Heaven Tree for many years.
