My understanding on the power that Gerard has is that he is a wielder of a subconscious version of The Superpower. His power is amplified by the fear of his enemies and the hope of his allies. Much like an unexpected airstrike or last charge can make the enemy weaker and the allies stronger, his power makes him leech off the demoralization of his enemies. And when he becomes stronger, his enemies' fear grows and furthers the cycle. Meanwhile, he gains power in Hoffnung by being someone his comrades think is invincible. In this case, his power is capped by there only being three Ritters left, but the longer it takes to kill him, the harder it becomes to do so.
