Characters

Main characters

Banaza / Flio
Voiced by: Satoshi Hino[5] (Japanese); Mauricio Ortiz-Segura[6] (English)
The hero of the story, quite literally, having to fix both the King and Blonde Hero's messes. Due to Flio and the Blonde Hero being summoned back to back, Flio accidentally got both of their blessings, which resulted in his infinite powers. He wants to just live as a merchant as he did in his old world, but ends up having to be the good Samaritan a lot.
Fenrys / Rhys
Voiced by: Rie Kugimiya[5] (Japanese); Megan Shipman[6] (English)
Demon wolf and Flio's wife. She originally wed Flio due to her tribe's tradition of submitting to the strong, but came to love him and their simple life. Rhys is very territorial of her mate, but is otherwise welcoming to others. She does not like Flio being bothered to take part in the human-demon conflict.
Balirossa
Voiced by: Aya Yamane[7] (Japanese); Jessica Peterson[6] (English)
A knight of Klyrode, seeking to gain a noble title in order to restore her family's lost prestige. Despite being a little lacking in common sense (thinking a bear respects chivalry), Balirossa is a competent fighter. Though initially frightened of Ghozal to fainting with her eyes open, Balirossa begins returning his interest in her.
Gholl / Ghozal
Voiced by: Tomoaki Maeno[8]
The former Dark One (basically "Demon Lord") and a friend to Flio and Rhys. He initially sought to gain Flio's strength for his army, but grew to enjoy his company instead. Ghozal also became smitten with Balirossa for her chivalry. Ghozal does not like needless conflict, which is why the Dark Army has been at a standstill with humanity unless necessary for many years.
Blossom
Voiced by: Mari Hino[7] (Japanese); Vanessa Benoit[6] (English)
A tomboyish swordswoman who favors heavy attacks. She was previously a farmer until being recruited into the army. Befriending Flio, Blossom largely returned to her farming roots; growing crops for Flio to sell. She also holds the title of "Dragon Slayer", thanks to Flio's powering up her weapon toss to decapitate a dragon.
Psybe
Voiced by: Yuka Iguchi[7]
The pet psychobear of the Flio household; often in the form of a small horned rabbit. He helps Blossom out in the fields and is her close friend.
Belano
Voiced by: Nene Hieda[7] (Japanese); Monica Rial[6] (English)
A mage specializing in defense spells; hoping to be a court mage like her father and brother. However, she has a low MP and gets nauseated from a single cast. In the end, she decides to get a job as a teacher at a magic academy; granting her great benefits and allowing her to pass on her observations on Flio's magic.
Byleri
Voiced by: Yuuki Hirose[7] (Japanese); Marisa Duran[6] (English)
An archer, though not by choice; she previously tended to the horses at the castle until being forced to the front lines. Seeing her equestrian skills were more beneficial, Byleri took to helping plow the fields with Blossom and delivering the wares from Flio's store.
Uliminas
Voiced by: Yukari Tamura[8]
A hellcat in charge of Ghozal's spy network "Silent Ear". Though shocked Flio had calmed down Rys and even befriended her master, Uliminas begrudgingly accepted the results. She is also in love with Ghozal, so she's a bit jealous of Balirossa.
Hiya
Voiced by: Yui Horie[8]
An androgynous djinn of great power. They attempted to grant the Blonde Hero's wish to kill Flio, but wounded Rys instead; earning a terrible beating. After being spared by Flio, Hiya swore loyalty to him as a servant. Hiya has no true gender, but can become either one.
Princess/Queen of Klyrode
Voiced by: Ayako Kawasumi[7] (Japanese); Naya Moreno[6] (English)
The current ruler of Klyrode. Unlike her oafish father, she is kind and considerate of those her kingdom may wrong. After resolving the issue with Hiya, the queen contracts Flio to undertake secret missions to keep the humans and demons from escalating fights at their borders.

Antagonists

Blonde Hero
Voiced by: Taishi Murata[7] (Japanese); Monty Thompson[6] (English)

He keeps his true name secret.
Klyrode King/Dark King
Formerly the ruler of Klyrode Kingdom. He kept kidnapping "Hero candidates" from other worlds to be sent as soldiers to fight the demons.
