The main protagonist of the series. Previously a Heavens-Blade wielder, a title given only to the twelve most capable fighters of the Lance Shelled City of Glendan. Layfon transferred to the Academy City of Zuellni in hopes of leaving his violent past behind, but he ends up being forced into the Military Arts Department against his will.
----
* TheAce: He's easily one of the best fighters and single-handedly can handle hoards of filth monsters. Being a Heaven's Blade wielder certainly helps.

* ButtMonkey: He is never safe from the world's abuse.
* ChickMagnet: Almost every girl he meets ends up falling for him.
* ChronicHeroSyndrome: As much as he wants to live a normal life, he can't stop himself from helping people in trouble.
* CluelessChickMagnet: He stays oblivious as the girls around him develop crushes on him.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Layfon may look like a weak nice guy but if you ever harm his friends and those he cares, get ready for a painful ass-kicking!
* {{Elopement}}: [[spoiler:Happens to Layfon and Felli at the end of the series, with Layfon asking Felli to WalkingTheEarth with him. Hilariously, Layfon had no idea what he was asking her to do until she tells him.]]
* EmbarrassingNickname: Layfon isn't too big on Felli calling him "Fon-Fon".
* TheExile: He was exiled from Glendan for participating in underground matches.
* FirstKiss:
** Layfon and Leerin had their first kiss with each other as Layfon left Grendan.
** [[spoiler:Also has one with Nina.]]
* GotVolunteered: First by Kalian for getting forcibly transferring him into Military Arts, and secondly by Nina who "recruited" him into the 17th Platoon without really giving him an option.
* HairAntennae: He has two cowlicks standing upwards atop his head.
* TheHero: The main protagonist of the series who is always there to protect others and save the day.
* HeroesPreferSwords: His WeaponOfChoice is a sword.
* {{Heroic BSoD}}: Layfon is in one at the beginning of the story. [[spoiler:He gets better.]]

Thankfully Nina was able to understand and forgive Layfon on what he did. In the anime, she forgave him by the end of the following episode.]]
* IJustWantToBeNormal: He came to Academy City of Zuellni because he wanted to live a normal school life. It didn't go as he expected.
* InstantExpert: He has the innate ability to break down Kei techniques and use them just by observation. He mastered all the Phyharden skills in a short period of time and learned the secret techniques of the Luskans that even Savaris was proud of, the Thousand Men Rush and Killer Roar (Houkeisatsu)
* TheLancer: His role in the 17th Platoon. He acts as Nina's NumberTwo and main support in combat.
* MrFanservice: He's very good looking and the attention he gets from his harem (personality aside) is quite justified. Kalian's swarm of all-female assistants are also ''quite'' happy to strip him naked and dress him in a Military Arts Department uniform in the anime's 1st episode.
* NiceGuy: He's a generous, honest and loving person.
* ObliviousToLove: He fails to notice the affections of Nina, Felli, and Mayshen.
* OfficialCouple: [[spoiler:Layfon and Felli in the light novels.]]
* OneHeadTaller: He's taller than Felli by a full head.
* RazorFloss: Courtesy of Lintens, he's able to use this.
* ResignedToTheCall: He had no interest in joining Military Arts, only wishing for a normal life. Unfortunately, the StudentCouncilPresident wouldn't allow that after seeing Layfon's combat potential. He blackmails Layfon into joining the Military Arts Department with his knowledge of Layfon's past.
* ScholarshipStudent: He entered the Academy City of Zuellni as a General Education student with a D-rank scholarship. After he's forced to transfer to Military Arts, his scholarship is upgraded to rank A, which automatically waives his tuition fees.
* ShipTease: Him with Nina, Mayshen, Felli, and Leerin.
* StockLightNovelHero: A very powerful and talented fighter, once even being one of the strongest Military Artists in his hometown, and several pretty girls keep joining his UnwantedHarem.
* SupernaturalAid: With a bit of a twist as [[spoiler:Layfon has lost his Heaven's Blade, the anime then plays it straight when it is returned and combined with his katana.]]
* ThanksForTheMammary: Layfon and Naruki have a sparring match where he accidentally falls on top of her. Of course, he touches her boobs. Naruki is not angry about it but she is annoyed that Layfon didn't realize he was feeling her big breasts as if they were flat in the first place!
* TheUnchosenOne: Before the last fight in the light novel, Layfon refuses the use of the Heavenly Blade. He claims that when he lost its use the first time around, it showed that he wasn't one of the "chosen". He was still the one fighting Leyvantein alongside Synola and Rintens, however. And before he leaves the Queen lets him have the blade anyway, claiming it was 'lost' in the battle.
* UnwantedHarem: He's the object of affection for Felli, Nina, Mayshen, and Leerin.

The psychokinesis user of the 17th Platoon and a second year. Like Layfon, she was recruited into Military Arts against her will, which leads her to take an interest in him.
----
* ACupAngst: Downplayed for the most part, but she does show annoyance at Nina's size in episode 15.
* TheChick: She's the smallest and cutest member of the 17th Platoon. She mainly uses her psychokinetic powers to support the team, such as managing searching and communication.
* ClingyJealousGirl: Whenever her "Fon-Fon" gets friendly with other girls, Felli gives him a painful kick.
* TheComicallySerious: She keeps the same straight face despite the comical situations she finds herself in.
* CommonalityConnection: She feels drawn to Layfon because, like her, the strength of his powers aren't normal, and he was forced into Military Arts against his will as well.
* DefrostingIceQueen: She slowly warms up to Layfon as time goes on.
* DontCallMeSir: She becomes mad if Layfon calls her "[[SempaiKohai senpai]]". She wants him to call her Felli.
* EmotionlessGirl: Subverted. As a psychokinesis user, Felli can't express emotions the same way as others. However, she's way too prone to {{Tsundere}} outbursts and violence.
* {{Elopement}}: [[spoiler:Happens to Layfon and Felli at the end of the series, with Layfon asking Felli to WalkingTheEarth with him. Hilariously, Layfon had no idea what he was asking her to do until she tells him.]]
* FirstNameBasis: With her calling Layfon "Fon-Fon".
* FrozenFace: She literally can't make common facial expressions. Her psychokinesis transmits so much information to her brain that her conscious can't handle all of it and blocks off emotional responses. This is especially troublesome for her when her job at a MaidCafe requires her to smile at the customers.
* HairTriggerTemper: Despite her nature as TheStoic, Felli gets angry ''very'' easily and is prone to tantrums and violence.
* IcyGrayEyes
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: [[spoiler:In the end, Felli knows that due to his ChronicHeroSyndrome, Layfon will never stay in one place for very long, and will be WalkingTheEarth helping people and doing what he feels is right. Despite being saddened that he will leave, she accepts this having fallen for him because of this. However, Layfon ends up asking Felli to go with him and together they depart in secret.]]
* ImpracticallyFancyOutfit: The suit meant to protect you in battle and stop the poisonous air from killing you? Yeah, Felli's has a frilly skirt.
* LittleGirlsKickShins: Felli usually kicks people in the shins when she gets angry.
* LittleMissSnarker: She's small, sharp and very snarky.
* MysticalWhiteHair: A psychokinesis user with white hair.
* OfficialCouple: [[spoiler:Layfon and Felli in the light novels.]]
* TheOjou
* OlderThanSheLooks: She looks like a preteen girl, but is actually 16 years old.
* PetalPower: Her powers consist of manipulating the petal-like segments of her DITE which she can use for searching, communication, and offense if necessary.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: She can apparently kick hard enough to dent steel in a fit of rage, not to mention whenever she kicks Layfon, he reacts as if he's been shot.
* PsychicPowers: She's a psychokinesis user.
* RapunzelHair: It reaches down to her knees.
* ReiAyanamiExpy: A young white-haired, pale-skinned girl with psychic powers who initially comes off as emotionless, but eventually warms up to the main character and even falls in love with him. She's also a rare example that has ShanaClone traits mixed in.
* ReluctantWarrior: She's only in Military Arts because her brother forced her into it. Feli actually dislikes fighting and doesn't want to use her power.
* RunningGag: Whenever she kicks something. 99% of the time it's Layfon. If you turn that into a drinking game, just know that I am not responsible for any casualties.
* ShanaClone: Petite, flat-chested teenage girl, has RapunzelHair, occasionally wears Grade A ZettaiRyouiki, and is an aloof {{Tsundere}} who frequently kicks her love interest. She's also a rare case mixed with ReiAyanamiExpy.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: Her cold, detached and almost emotionless demeanor is actually a side effect of her powers. In reality, Felli is rather emotive and hates to not be able to properly express her feelings. Layfon is the only one to even get a glance of her soft and cute side.
* TinyTyrannicalGirl: She's tiny, short-tempered, bossy and usually kicks or smacks Layfon when she gets angry or jealous.
* TokenMiniMoe: The short, young-looking girl of 17th Platoon.
* {{Tsundere}}: She often alternates from insulting and kicking "Fon-Fon" out of annoyance or jealousy to being sweet and openly caring for him.
* UnhappyMedium: Like most psychokinesis users, Felli receives a great influx of information in her brain, and her mind is unable to handle the strain of responding to every bit of information. This causes Felli's difficulty to express emotions.
* WalkingTheEarth: [[spoiler:At the end of the series, she joins Layfon in his journey around the world.]]
* WhenSheSmiles: Layfon blushes when he gets a glimpse of her smile. Then Felli ruins the moment by kicking him like usual.
* ZettaiRyouiki: She wears thigh-high stockings or boots on occasion.

Layfon transferred to the Academy City of Zuellni in hopes of leaving his violent past behind, but he ends up being forced into the Military Arts Department against his will.
----
* TheAce: He's easily one of the best fighters and single-handedly can handle hoards of filth monsters. Being a Heaven's Blade wielder certainly helps.

* ChickMagnet: Almost every girl he meets ends up falling for him.
* ChronicHeroSyndrome: As much as he wants to live a normal life, he can't stop himself from helping people in trouble.
* CluelessChickMagnet: He stays oblivious as the girls around him develop crushes on him.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Layfon may look like a weak nice guy but if you ever harm his friends and those he cares, get ready for a painful ass-kicking!
* {{Elopement}}: [[spoiler:Happens to Layfon and Felli at the end of the series, with Layfon asking Felli to WalkingTheEarth with him. Hilariously, Layfon had no idea what he was asking her to do until she tells him.]]
* EmbarrassingNickname: Layfon isn't too big on Felli calling him "Fon-Fon".
* TheExile: He was exiled from Glendan for participating in underground matches.
* FirstKiss:
** Layfon and Leerin had their first kiss with each other as Layfon left Grendan.
** [[spoiler:Also has one with Nina.]]
* GotVolunteered: First by Kalian for getting forcibly transferring him into Military Arts, and secondly by Nina who "recruited" him into the 17th Platoon without really giving him an option.

* TheHero: The main protagonist of the series who is always there to protect others and save the day.
* HeroesPreferSwords: His WeaponOfChoice is a sword.
* {{Heroic BSoD}}: Layfon is in one at the beginning of the story. [[spoiler:He gets better.]]
* IDidWhatIHadToDo: [[spoiler:Layfon's justification for participating in underground matches and attempting to kill the person who was blackmailing him in a Heaven's Blade selection match. Thankfully Nina was able to understand and forgive Layfon on what he did. In the anime, she forgave him by the end of the following episode.]]
* IJustWantToBeNormal: He came to Academy City of Zuellni because he wanted to live a normal school life. It didn't go as he expected.
* InstantExpert: He has the innate ability to break down Kei techniques and use them just by observation. He mastered all the Phyharden skills in a short period of time and learned the secret techniques of the Luskans that even Savaris was proud of, the Thousand Men Rush and Killer Roar (Houkeisatsu)
* TheLancer: His role in the 17th Platoon. He acts as Nina's NumberTwo and main support in combat.
* MrFanservice: He's very good looking and the attention he gets from his harem (personality aside) is quite justified. Kalian's swarm of all-female assistants are also ''quite'' happy to strip him naked and dress him in a Military Arts Department uniform in the anime's 1st episode.
* NiceGuy: He's a generous, honest and loving person.
* ObliviousToLove: He fails to notice the affections of Nina, Felli, and Mayshen.

Unfortunately, the StudentCouncilPresident wouldn't allow that after seeing Layfon's combat potential. He blackmails Layfon into joining the Military Arts Department with his knowledge of Layfon's past.
* ScholarshipStudent: He entered the Academy City of Zuellni as a General Education student with a D-rank scholarship. After he's forced to transfer to Military Arts, his scholarship is upgraded to rank A, which automatically waives his tuition fees.
* ShipTease: Him with Nina, Mayshen, Felli, and Leerin.
* StockLightNovelHero: A very powerful and talented fighter, once even being one of the strongest Military Artists in his hometown, and several pretty girls keep joining his UnwantedHarem.

* ThanksForTheMammary: Layfon and Naruki have a sparring match where he accidentally falls on top of her. Of course, he touches her boobs. Naruki is not angry about it but she is annoyed that Layfon didn't realize he was feeling her big breasts as if they were flat in the first place!
* TheUnchosenOne: Before the last fight in the light novel, Layfon refuses the use of the Heavenly Blade. He claims that when he lost its use the first time around, it showed that he wasn't one of the "chosen". He was still the one fighting Leyvantein alongside Synola and Rintens, however. And before he leaves the Queen lets him have the blade anyway, claiming it was 'lost' in the battle.
* UnwantedHarem: He's the object of affection for Felli, Nina, Mayshen, and Leerin.
* WalkingTheEarth: [[spoiler:At the end of the series, he goes to travel around the world with Felli, helping people wherever he goes.]]

* TheComicallySerious: She keeps the same straight face despite the comical situations she finds herself in.

* DefrostingIceQueen: She slowly warms up to Layfon as time goes on.
* DontCallMeSir: She becomes mad if Layfon calls her "[[SempaiKohai senpai]]". She wants him to call her Felli.
* EmotionlessGirl: Subverted. As a psychokinesis user, Felli can't express emotions the same way as others. However, she's way too prone to {{Tsundere}} outbursts and violence.
* {{Elopement}}: [[spoiler:Happens to Layfon and Felli at the end of the series, with Layfon asking Felli to WalkingTheEarth with him. Hilariously, Layfon had no idea what he was asking her to do until she tells him.]]
* FirstNameBasis: With her calling Layfon "Fon-Fon".
* FrozenFace: She literally can't make common facial expressions. Her psychokinesis transmits so much information to her brain that her conscious can't handle all of it and blocks off emotional responses.

* HairTriggerTemper: Despite her nature as TheStoic, Felli gets angry ''very'' easily and is prone to tantrums and violence.
* IcyGrayEyes
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: [[spoiler:In the end, Felli knows that due to his ChronicHeroSyndrome, Layfon will never stay in one place for very long, and will be WalkingTheEarth helping people and doing what he feels is right.

* OfficialCouple: [[spoiler:Layfon and Felli in the light novels.]]
* TheOjou

* PetalPower: Her powers consist of manipulating the petal-like segments of her DITE which she can use for searching, communication, and offense if necessary.

* ReluctantWarrior: She's only in Military Arts because her brother forced her into it. Feli actually dislikes fighting and doesn't want to use her power.

* ShanaClone: Petite, flat-chested teenage girl, has RapunzelHair, occasionally wears Grade A ZettaiRyouiki, and is an aloof {{Tsundere}} who frequently kicks her love interest. She's also a rare case mixed with ReiAyanamiExpy.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: Her cold, detached and almost emotionless demeanor is actually a side effect of her powers. In reality, Felli is rather emotive and hates to not be able to properly express her feelings. Layfon is the only one to even get a glance of her soft and cute side.
* TinyTyrannicalGirl: She's tiny, short-tempered, bossy and usually kicks or smacks Layfon when she gets angry or jealous.
* TokenMiniMoe: The short, young-looking girl of 17th Platoon.
* {{Tsundere}}: She often alternates from insulting and kicking "Fon-Fon" out of annoyance or jealousy to being sweet and openly caring for him.
* UnhappyMedium: Like most psychokinesis users, Felli receives a great influx of information in her brain, and her mind is unable to handle the strain of responding to every bit of information. This causes Felli's difficulty to express emotions.
* WalkingTheEarth: [[spoiler:At the end of the series, she joins Layfon in his journey around the world.]]
* WhenSheSmiles: Layfon blushes when he gets a glimpse of her smile. Then Felli ruins the moment by kicking him like usual.
