Jahil 「ジャヒル, jahiru」 is the original High human Ancestor created by Twilight Valentine to fulfill Veldanava's wish of a world populated with sentient life. He serves an antagonistic role in the series, particularly against Yuuki Kagurazaka and Kagali.
Appearance[]
True Form[]
Jahil's original and true appearance is that of a somewhat average looking man with a large nose and long light colored hair worn in a ponytail. He typically wears a simple white robe and sandals.
Footman[]
After the events of The End of Ambitions, Jahil has taken over the body of Footman and has chosen to keep his appearance, albeit with a few modifications. Footman's signature mask is nowhere to be found and his light orange colored suit has been changed to a dark purple one with yellow and green accents.
Personality[]
Jahil is extremely arrogant and self-centered, believing himself to be the pinnacle of power and the rightful ruler of the world. He holds little to no morality and is willing to kill thousands of people just for the sake of experimentation.
Background[]
Jahil was created by the divine ancestor Twilight Valentine eons ago to fulfill Veldanava's wish of a world populated with sentient life. The first of these experiments was Jahil, the "ancestor" of the entire human race. However, Jahil's behaviour was erratic and unsuited for Veldanava's desires, resulting in him and his fellow High humans being deemed failures and Twilight moving on to create more races.
Once the various races had spread across the earth and various nations had begun to form, Jahil and his scientifically advanced nation of High humans set out to conquer the world and become its sole ruler. This eventually resulted in Jahil summoning the lord of the Daemon race Guy Crimson. Jahil arrogantly believed that so long as Guy was within the material world that he could be controlled by the magic that was forced upon him during summoning. Guy proceeded to destroy not only the nation he was fighting against but to also summon and then incarnate Rain and Misery, ordering them to slaughter Jahil and all the residents of his Super-Sorcery Empire while avoiding the use of mass destruction magic to increase their suffering.
After being killed by the fruits of his own stupidity, Jahil's spirit came to wander the earth for eons before eventually finding a host in the king of the elven kingdom. The wise and kind king had built his city over the ruins over the Super-Sorcery Empire and made use of the technological secrets that laid within to create a prosperous nation called the 'Super-Sorcery Kingdom' for his entire race. After Jahil made the king's body his own he proceeded to use the once peaceful kingdom as both a launchpad for the rebirth of the Super-Magic Empire and a testing grounds for his magical experiments. He became abusive and cold towards the king's daughter Kagali and began massacring people in order to use their corpses for his experiments with the "Birthday" spell.
Jahil's experiments culminated in him murdering Kagali and bringing her back to life as a Deathman. He had placed a curse upon her that would leave her appearance rotting, twisted, and ugly. When Kagali spoke back to her perceived father, begging him to return to his "peaceful and loving ways" Jahil lashed out in anger and used the power of his curse to force Kagali to become a man, changing her name to Kazalim and calling her his son.
Once more Jahil's arrogance and stupidity resulted in his doom. He had secretly infiltrated the Kingdom of Nasca and attempted to bring its Dragon Princess, Milim Nava, under his control. He killed the girl's pet dragon using mystical arts to bypass its Anti-skill and sent the girl into a mindless rampage of unbridled rage. The power the Dragon Princess inherited from Veldanava proved to be too much for Jahil to handle and he once again perished as the capital of the elven empire was reduced to nothing by a bright beam of pure destruction. His spirit once more roamed the earth, treading the line between life and death before being unexpectedly saved by the angel of origin Feldway. Feldway safe-guarded Jahil's spirit and Jahil in turn owed them a great debt. When the time came, Jahil's spirit was secretly implanted into the body of Footman in order to spy on the demon lord Clayman and his compatriots.
