David's History
David Jehoahaz Abraham (�??�??�??�?��?��?��?��?��?��??�?��??�?� Dabide Yoazu Aburahimu) was the leader of the Magicians from Alma Torran and the first Senator in the The Orthodox Church's "Council of Elders". He was the father of Solomon,[1] and the magi of Sinbad. Due to his actions, he could be considered the main antagonist of Magi.
History
David wrote a prophetic book after his son Solomon was born. It highlights his views on the world, himself, his son, other magicians, stretching his lifespan, how the creation of the 'gunud' and 'agenda' are just pieces towards his grand mission, and finding the true singularity that will allow him to surpass god.
Magnostadt Arc
When Mattal Moghamett is dying, he recognizes someone on the other side of the furnace of the medium who is taking Black Rukh to himself. It is later known that this person was David, taking a large amount of Black Rukh in order to materialize in Solomons world.
Alma Torran Arc
David was the leader of the Orthodox Church, and the main antagonist. He had created the Gunud towers to enslave the other species and dictated the propaganda that considered this a sacred mission dictated by Il Ilah. Solomon and Ugo also suspected him of be stealing power directly from Il Ilah in order to prolong his life. For years he didnt act against the resistance lead by his son Solomon, as he considered his own defeat to be another product of destiny and part of his mission. Ultimately he baited the Resistance into attacking the capital using dolls similar to the ones Al Thamen would later use, his own fake body being killed by Arba. He then locked most of his enemies inside of the palace, where they could only get out thanks to the help of Uraltugo.
The Resistance returned to their own headquarters to discover that most of his loved ones had been burned alive by David and his followers. A battle ensued, with David holding his ground easily against Ithnan, Arba, Wahid, Falan and Sheba. However, the Divine Staves the Orthodox Members were using soon reached their limit and as such they prepared for a suicide attack. Solomon managed to push his father and his subordinates far away from the innocent people. On their last talk, David admitted it all to be part of destiny, confessed to have no fatherly feelings whatsoever for his son and gave him the key to fight against destiny, his own staff. He would later die because of the suicide explosion and become part of the deposed Il Ilah, possessing it in the process.
Final Arc
It is revealed by Alibaba that David is alive and has fused with Ill Ilah. He is also somehow connected to Sinbad, as the two are singularities who can see destiny.[6] When Sinbad has fallen to Ugo, David takes this chance to reveal himself as he emerges from the Black Rukh that was separated from Sinbad's Rukh. His attempt to take over the Sacred Palace fails as Ugo defeats him and places him into a lower-order world which is seen in a fish tank.
A flashback of a young David receiving magic from Il Ilah is shown, he questions what magic is, what a magician is and why god chose him. Back in the present David is shown to have come to a realization of what his duty is, believing it to be complete before correcting himself and saying that it's just the beginning. Sinbad, whose rukh is being held by his own djinns, goes on to talk about how magicians are the sages of the king and that a king leads the world and not god. Sinbad tells David to take his hand and that he will show him a world he couldn't of imagined, planning to use the rukh of the world in order to break the vertical walls and fight the Gods in the upper levels. David proceeds to pull Sinbad from the great flow before referring to him as his king. As Ugo is having a mental breakdown, David puts him under an illusion. After David does this, Sinbad refers to David as his magi saying that's what he expected of him.
After Sinbad and the others discuss various solutions and ultimately decide to open up negotiations with other Gods outside their realm, David takes over the Sacred Palace by swapping ranks with Sinbad. In battle, David's proxy targets Aladdin to prevent him from escaping the Sacred Palace until Sinbad and Arba return back to the field which allows Aladdin's group to escape to their world in order to stop David's plans from harvesting the Rukh.
While the guardians appear and start returning the people to the Rukh, Sinbad and David continue trying to overtake each other in the Sacred Palace by switching ranks. David tries to persuade Sinbad to team up with him to shatter the dimensions and strike down the gods while seeing how far the limits of destiny can expand. Sinbad argues they are no different from the humans they look down upon. In response to Sinbad's rejecting his offer, David calls Sinbad a defective Singularity and reverts to his child form, confident he will win the battle and harvest the Rukh on the surface world. With David gaining the upper hand and powering himself further with it, turning himself into a younger version.
Continuing the battle of hierarchy, David pins Sinbad down and explains no matter how many times Sinbad hijack the hierarchy, Sinbad will lose. David thinks about how Sinbad is out of options and that it is impossible to cancel out the Sacred Palace's magic as his spell of returning the real world to the Rukh continues to completion. David asks Sinbad if he was suffering for not being able to see destiny. David then hands out his hand, offering Sinbad help on seeing destiny.
Sinbad explains to David that because of the continuous use of the Sacred Palace, the Sacred Palace starts to vanish. Furthermore, Sinbad explains they won't have the powers to continue the fight against the gods without the Sacred Palace. David argues that it is their purpose of a singularity to push to the farthest limits of destiny. To counter David, Sinbad asks David whether they have been living their lives according to their own wills. He gives an example of how the culmination of individual wills shape their destiny from their dreams, their comrades' wishes, and expectations of families. David calls Sinbad cruel for Sinbad wanting to lead everyone on the path of freedom at the cost of David's right path. David informs Sinbad that he's too late as his real body starts absorbing the Rukh in the real world by warping the towers and extending his influence
Meanwhile in the Great Rift, David lies in wait for Aladdin whom has located him. David answers a barrage of questions from Aladdin. David can only explain that he is following destiny because he is a singularity. Aladdin asks him who chose him to follow that destiny, but David cannot answer. David himself wonders what exactly is he, and his grandson replies that he is a lonely, cowardly person, who could never relate to others and thus never grew as an individual, thus his obsession with being chosen by others and destiny. [18] David replies by asking Aladdin if he isn't a Magi, to which Aladdin retorts that his life is about many things beyond being a Magi. David seems bothered, but says that it doesn't matter, as the magic to return the world to the Rukh is still at work and out of his hands.
While everyone else resorts to destroy the towers and as such the entire Rukh system in order to deactivate the magic, David resists Aladdin's powers. David turns into a Black Rukh abomination [20] and seems to be having the upper hand until Sinbad intervenes and holds him for a while. After that, Solomon, Sheba and Ugo appear from the Rukh that spilled from the Sacred Place and help Aladdin to defeat David. David seems to look at his son before finally disappearing.
