Orm

The Demon Lord of the world. He was created by the goddess in order to control and balance the will of the demons so that eternal war could rage on. However, after realizing this, he begins to refuse fate, and tries his best to stop the goddess' plan of eternal war, by communicating with Ruphas.

He was originally the highest level boss within the game of Exgate, with stats strong enough to have to defeat the six Seven Heroes who challenged him. Currently, Luphas herself cannot defeat him without some good luck, as he holds the HP advantage. However, True Luphas, being the unparalleled OP BAMF that she is, is several thousand levels higher.

He is also secretly one of the 5 Ryuu of this world; the world dragons which control certain elements.

## History

Orm is first introduced as the highest level boss in the game. After Ruphas' defeat at the hands of her friends, they go on to challenge Orm, only to be defeated.

Within the Exgate world, he took a part of each heroes' body away to punish them, and cut their stats in half. At this point, he began his demon offensive, eventually taking 70% of the continent by the time Luphas is revived.

During the events of the story, Luphas first comes face-to-face with Orm after they both learn the king has successfully summoned a hero. Both Ruphas and Orm come face to face after seeking this "hero" out. Orm swiftly challenges Luphas to a fight, before realizing that Ruphas has been significantly weakened from her "True Ruphas" state.

###### **New World**

He didn’t fight Ruphas two hundred years ago because he was afraid of her. He himself freely acknowledged that. However, he wasn’t weak at all. He simultaneously defeated and cursed six of the Seven Heroes, excluding Benetnash.

In the past, under the guises of the Evil God and the Giant God, he had repeatedly hunted the humanoids, pretended to be defeated by historical heroes after inflicting fatal injuries, and then changed his name to reappear as another villain of Midgard.

But now, he seemed to be working towards a different purpose than that of the Goddess. He was acting on his own judgment.

## Relationship

* Terra: A creation of the Demon King’s arcane power, something similar to his son.

## Technique

* **Divine Magic:** A supernatural ability different from Arcane Magic. It is the opposite of magical power and possesses the properties of repelling magic.
	+ **X-Gate:** Spatial magic which allows the user to create portals and travel vast distances, simply connecting the coordinates with each other.
* **Observing Eyes:** An that displays the level, remaining HP, and even the stats of an opponent if the user is skilled enough. However unless your own level is double that of Search Eye’s target, only their name and level will be displayed. Furthermore, if the target’s level equals or exceeds your own, Search Eye will fail to activate.
* **Alkaid:** An original skill that did not exist back in X-Gate Online. By breaking past the level 1000 cap set by the Goddess, the maximum limit of the level becomes infinity, thereby allowing the user to display their true battle prowess which was previously suppressed by the system. Furthermore, due to the activation of the skill, the upper limit of the damage dealt shoots up, therefore it becomes possible to deal up to 999 999 damage. In respect to Benetnash, Ruphas named it [Alkaid] which is another name for Eta Ursae Majoris of the Ursa Major, Big Dipper asterism. It destroys the world’s system and overcomes any existing boundaries, therefore, it places quite a significant burden on the world. Using game-related terms, it would be something like one person using so much data that it starts lagging in one go.
* **Cyclical World:** Orm’s unique skill in which he bites his own tail and rotates at a super high speed to surround the target. This traps the target in a prison of time and lets tens of thousands of years pass by. Furthermore, the passing time would assault the target, aging it in an instant and breaking it apart. It has the priority rank 6, and as such, it takes precedence over every other skill. It cannot be negated by any means.
