Ordov Heinriel

Ordov Heinriel (オルドフ・ハインリエル) was the former Holy King (聖王), and the father of both Lebrahard and Balzarondo.

Appearance
Ordov is described as a man with grey hair, wrinkles etched on his face, and a well-groomed mustache. His old age diminished his previously muscular physique, as his muscles withered under the strain of his imprisonment. In his youth, he likely had blond hair like his sons.

Personality
Ordov was the undisputed hero of Hayfolia, a Holy King that devoted his life to his world and served with great honor. Even Eife put her full faith in him when her convictions were wavering.

History
Ordov was born in the world of Hayfolia, as after the world had evolved to perceive the Silver Water Holy Sea after the birth of the Hayfolia's Chief God: the Blessed Lady Eife, he became the first Sovereign of his world, becoming the Holy King. Eventually, he married his wife and had two sons: Lebrahard and Balzarondo. He later became acquainted and befriended the Sovereign of the Blacksmith World Bardilua: Bellamy Standad, as the two became good friends.

As Hayfolia's Sovereign, Ordov led his world against the Disaster Abyss World Evezeino in numerous battles, as they were naturally incompatible and especially hostile. The Disaster Abyss World was home to the Phantom Beasts, whose insatiable craving led them to feast and possess the bodies of Hayfolia's citizens. During these battles, he met and fought against Evezeino's ruler, Yzak, eventually forming an unlikely kinship between the two.

Eventually, Ordov noticed that the world of Evezeino was alive and would move to devour Hayfolia, as he tried to stop that by blessing Evezeino with Eife's authority, though Yzak drove them back before they could succeed. After fighting against the Lion of Destruction and sustaining a hand injury in the battle, Ordov eventually confronted Yzak, when he noticed the latter attacking his subordinates. An injured Ordov would allow Yzak to take his head, questioning the path he took. He wondered if the Rainbow Path, which guided Hayfolians to hunt the phantom beasts, was really the embodiment of their conscience as it was told. If Hayfolia's blessing could quench Evezeino's craving, wouldn't it mean the same powers are at work? Then, were Yzak's cravings really his? If he was right, it would mean they were wrong all this time.

Yzak grew intrigued by Ordov's hypothesis and ideal, as Yzak voluntarily went to sleep in order to weaken Evezeino's order and stop its craving, thus giving Ordov the opportunity to find the true Rainbow Path and change Hayfolia. When Yzak wakes up, and if Ordov was wrong, then they would continue their battle. But if he was right, then the two could drink together

Towards his old age, Ordov would send Yzak back to Evezeino with the Two Laws Tyrant Noah's help, as he realized that he wasn't capable of accomplishing his dream of finding the true Rainbow Path. He eventually abdicated his role of the Holy King and his ownership of the legendary holy sword Evansmana, as he left them to his future successor. But he never gave up on his dream of finding the true Rainbow Path, as he continued to search for it despite his previous unsuccessful efforts. He eventually learned of Admiral Gigi's plans, as the latter shot him with a special magic bullet, which greatly damaged his source, as Gigi imprisoned him and left him to slowly perish in a bubble world.

Holy Sword World Arc
After restoring Evansmana to its former brilliance, Lay Grandsley, the current wielder of Evansmana, and Ordov's son: Balzarondo, followed the voice and guidance of the Fateful King Dionatek, who created a Rainbow Path to lead them to who she requested them to help. The Rainbow Path lead them to a unnamed dying bubble world, in which they were able to find the an imprisoned Ordov.

Ordov recognized Evansmana's radiance, even after his senses were dulled, as well as the presence of his son Balzarondo. But he mistook Lay for his eldest son Lebrahard, as he was unaware of the Militia World where Lay came from or the fact that there was another Evansmana user beside Lebrahard. Lay played along by pretending to be Lebrahard in order to to make Ordov's final moments peaceful in respect to the older hero.

Ordov then explained his final battle and his vow with Yzak, as well as his desire to find the true Rainbow Path, but he was too weakened to find it anymore. Lay playing Lebrahard reassured him by telling him that he would take over his duty and that Ordov was trying his best to walk the the true Rainbow Path. Satisfied, Ordov's magic power started to fade, but Dionatek manifested from Evansmana and used her powers to alter fate in order to prolong Ordov's life enough to save his feelings.

Taking the injured Ordov back to Hayfolia, Eife tried to heal him but could only delay the inevitable death that was approaching, as Balzarondo suggested taking Ordov to the Militia World to be reincarnated, thus allowing them to meet again someday. After seeing Lay's Rainbow Path, Eife entrusted Ordov to them.

Arriving in the Militia World, they set about to gather the means to help reincarnate Ordov. In order to successfully reincarnate Ordov, Lay used his mastery of source magic, the power of Evansmana and with the added assistance of the Four Fundamental Gods, as their attempt was successful and Ordov was left in a state of remission, as it would take two days to fully complete the reincarnation process, as his source would shine for a final time and would be even possible to maybe exchange words with him before that.

After the three-way battle between Pablohetara, Evezeino and Militia ended, various of Ordov's old allies and friends came to see him before he reincarnated. Even Yzak, his old archenemy, came to see him off, as Ordov's eyes opened and he saw the Living Disaster. Ordov boasted that his son must have become a big deal as he extended his fist to his rival, telling him that their paths do not diverge, as his source reached its limit and reincarnated, leaving behind his "Order of Heinriel".

Abilities

 * Immense Magic Power: As a inhabitant of a deep world and former Sovereign of the Holy Sword World Hayfolia, Ordov possesses a vast amount of magic power. He was considered to be the strongest hunter on Hayfolia, as in his prime years, he was stated to possess power that is equal to that of the Inviolable Waters, a group of extremely powerful beings that are renowned across the Silver Water Holy Sea for their power. He was stated to have battled the Living Disaster: Yzak, numerous times on equal terms.
 * Master Swordsman: Ordov was the most powerful swordsman of Hayfolia and possibly in the Silver Water Holy Sea, as he was renown for his swordsmanship prowess. He was also the first wielder of the legendary holy sword Evansmana, being able to use it at full power and draw out its full potential.

Eife
Ordov has a good relationship with his Chief God, as he governed the world alongside her after it evolved. He protected her after their attempt to bless Evezeino with her authority failed, thus allowing her to retreat to Hayfolia. She had great faith in his judgement and convictions, as she tried to find him after he went missing and she started that her order was getting distorted, in order to ask for his counsel in regards to Lebrahard's reign as the Holy King. She was sorrowful after Ordov was found on the brink of death, as she tried to heal him to no avail. When Ordov was on the verge of being reincarnated, she thanked him for fighting for Hayfolia and wished him the best of his future journey after he reincarnated.

Yzak
Originally, Ordov and Yzak were hostile to each other and arch-enemies, as their worlds battled numerous times over the years, and the two personally fought each other countless times. However, Ordov gained some measure of respect for the Living Disaster, as he told him about his hypothesis about Evezeino and his desire to find the true Rainbow Path. After Yzak went to sleep, Ordov desperately tried to find the true Rainbow Path in order to convince Yzak that they did not need to be enemies, but was disappointed in himself for being unable to find it. When Ordov was on the verge of being reincarnated, Yzak came to visit him, bringing the bottle of alcohol that he promised to bring in case that Ordov found the true Rainbow Path. Ordov was pleased to see him and told him that their paths don't diverge. It is noted that their relationship heavily parallels the relationship shared between Hero Kanon/Lay and Anos, with the two going from arch-rivals to friends over the course of their battles.
