Ruin

**Ruin** (ルイン *Ruin*) is a negator, self-proclaimed to be loved by God.

He's a known Regulator and has been named by Seal, "the King of Negators". He acts as one of the main antagonists of the Ragnarok Arc.

## Appearance

He appears to be a naturally built man with a sun tattoo on his chest. His face is more ghoulish and creepy, with a nasty scar over his right eye, and wears a choker on his neck, has vampiric-like fangs inside his mouth. He has wild, long, and unkept hair. He only wears pants, and "wears" Blood like a jacket when not in combat.

## Personality

Ruin is sadistic and mentally unstable, cheerfully slaughtering hundreds of people to make friends with the newly added UMA Ghost, and outright holds humanity in contempt as the "rules" they impose on themselves disgust him. He is a follower of God, and believes he is loved by him, to the point that he has Blood undo the parasol protecting him from the sunlight that harms his skin, believing it to hold "meaning", as the 101 Master Rules hold no errors. Naturally, any affronts to this belief enrages him greatly, such as when Billy points out that his "Unruin" is actually a weaker version of Undead.

## Plot

### Ragnarok Arc

He first appears by stabbing Fuuko through the chest, stating that she isn't allowed to kill Undead. After Andy slices him in retaliation, he regenerates and flees, stating that the Negators will be unable to ruin his dreams. He is then shown to have killed dozens of people to get the newly created UMA Ghost's attention, asking it to eat Fuuko's soul later. When Andy tries slicing him to ribbons, he just says to give up on Fuuko before leaving with Ghost. He later shows up again when the Earth enters Ragnarok, bathing in the sunlight despite it burning him as a sign of his fanatical love to God and the rules they impose.

He then goes on a killing spree, killing hundreds of thousands of people as their corpses wear smiles. He then makes base at a castle at Lucy's village, where a number of UMAs move to. As a result of Andy killing the UMAs in the way to reach Ruin, Seal is imposed as a punishment. Seal then defeats Andy and Lucy and enters Ruin's base as he kills another man, calling him "The King of Negators". Ruin states they, as Regulators, are charged with the mission of preparing for God's arrival, and then warns Seal about underestimating Andy, which proves true as with Lucy's help, he (and the UMAs Seal sealed up) are able to use astral projection to escape confinement. While pinned, Andy asks Ruin where Fuuko and Ghost are, which Ruin reveals that Ghost is "making friends". When Lucy tries to reason with Ruin by saying he should have family, only for the Regulator to rebuke that human rules are disgusting and that he has no family, because he was "birthed" by God. Just before he can attack Lucy's soul, Rip comes in and tears his arm off with his Blade Runner before freeing Andy from Seal. Just before they can fight, his scheme with Ghost and Nico pays off, with Nico betraying the Union and destroying all the UMAs that where keeping Ragnarok at bay. He and Seal then leave, planning to usher God at the Union base.

Ruin and Seal assault the Union base in an effort to destroy the Roundtable and prevent another loop, with Nico helping them under the promise of being reunited with his wife thanks to Ghost. After Ghost is destroyed and Fuuko is revived, Ruin tries to kill Fuuko again, only to be stopped by Tatiana, who holds him off so Fuuko can loop. When she is about to be killed by Ruin, Billy returns and reveals his true Negation ability Unfair to fight Ruin to a standstill, even claiming his Unruin by calling him an inferior version to Undead, allowing Fuuko and Andy to reach the Roundtable and begin the looping process.

He is last seen laughing manically along with Apocalypse as Sun appears to end the world.

### Union Arc

He is mentioned as one of the Negators Fuuko wants to save in her plan to create a new Union.
