* OrcusOnHisThrone: ''Enforced'' by the Board.
Dungeon bosses like Ryuuka have an infinite mana supply and serve as basically living batteries for the dungeon. Their presence keeps the dungeon running for construction and its denizens. Allowing the monsters to heal from their injuries. Unfortunately, this also means that a dungeon boss isn't ALLOWED to leave unless they have a replacement (hence, Ryuuka has been literally stuck there since her father, the dungeons original boss and builder, retired). The Board want to guard Ryuuka with their lives alongside the rest of the dungeon. Sure she's arguably quite terrifyingly powerful, but having her go out and fight against any old adventurer would be a risk for everyone there. This becomes a plot point when [[TheChosenOne the True Hero]] kills the master of another dungeon, causing them to desperately rush to Ryuuka's to try to forcibly take her to theirs to give it some life again. Well, that and they're totally obsessed with her.

They are actually equals in terms of raw speed and strength but the fact that Prominence uses a magical blade while Van uses a regular one that can break gives the former a slight advantage that requires Van to work with Ryuuka to fight him. However, Van still feels that Prominence's combat skills need improving. Also, since Prominence gains his power from the sword itself removing or breaking the sword (somehow) will depower him, unlike Van whose naturally powerful.

* ChildhoodFriendRomance: Not Ryuuka and Van, though the signs of it potentially developing are there, but rather Golde and Sylvia. Despite Sylvia's youthful appearance, she and Golde are the same age, have known each other since they were children, and are married with a teenage daughter of their own. This revelation immediately sets the Board of Directors to imagning Ryuuka and Van as a married couple with children.

* CannotSpitItOut: Ryuuka and Van both obviously like each other and EveryoneCanSeeIt, though they aren't entirely sure if the other does thanks to Ryuuka putting on a {{Tsundere}} denial about it, and neither wants to necessarily confess, though Ryuuka is the one that is actually has it in consideration versus Van not being sure if he wants to ever push things past the "childhood friends" part that could complicate their relationship. They're happy where they are on the surface, but Ryuuka is definitely perturbed by all the near-misses and Van is ambiguous in his considerations on the matter.
