Plot
Lloyd Belladonna was raised in Kunlun, a town where everyone is extraordinarily powerful. Unable to keep up, he moves to Azami to become a soldier and make a name for himself. His intense training has given him incredible strength, speed, magic, and other talents, but his crippling self-esteem issues from being overshadowed his entire life prevent him from seeing how amazing he truly is. For example, he can often defeat monsters with one blow, but does not see this as special since his villagers treat these monsters like bugs. He goes through life oblivious to his talents and the various girls who become attracted to him.

- Lloyd is a teenage boy from the legendary town of Kunlun who left to become a soldier in the kingdom's army. In his village, he is known as a weakling who cannot perform any typical jobs to the "normal" expected level. However, the standards of this town, in the most dangerous region of the world, are incredibly skewed and truthfully he is terrifyingly powerful by outside standards. He is kind and generous, eager to help and very humble. He excels at cooking and cleaning, but cannot be convinced of his true power.

- Also known as the "Cursed Belt Princess". Daughter of a noble, Selen was cursed as a child by a magic belt that wrapped tightly around her head and could not be removed by any known magic. This accident led to scandal and shame to the nobility. She desperately developed her strength on account of a claim that power greater than the belt would break it, and came to the capital to join the army and further hone her power. When Lloyd broke the curse on their first meeting, she developed a very powerful crush on him. She has a tendency to talk of herself and Lloyd as already being mutually in love and showing animosity toward those she perceives as rivals. It is later revealed that the belt is made from the skin of Vritra, a divine beast native to Kunlun, and protects the wearer from all evil.
