This may be poorly writen but bare with me please. My guess is that Subaru is the Authority of Pride. Why? Because so far, based on what I've read and watched, those with these authorities have a psycological trait indicating whatever 'naturally acquired' authority they have. Based on my observations Subaru has a lot of pride. Ex: where it seems like he can't let go of his accomplishments and will use them to show a debt owed even though it seems like he's oblivious to what he's doing (eg: what he did to Emilia on an occasion or two). To finish this off I'll share a little real life observation. Pride is the hardest thing to 'kill'. You can literally beat someone to death to try to change them. The interesting part is that no matter what you do, their amount of pride will barely change, if at all. So my assumption is that the author of the series did his fair share of research on the psychological effects of each authority and made abilities related to the effects. In my opinion: The fact that pride is nearly impossible to kill is the basis on Returns by Death.
