Chillin' in Another World with Level 2 Super Cheat Powers

Premise

Banaza is summoned to another world by the Kingdom of Klyrode as a hero candidate, but is found to have inadequate skills and banished to a dangerous forest. After slaying a slime, Banaza levels up and gets infinite stats, obtaining god-like powers. He later defeats and befriends Fenrys, a female demon wolf who becomes his first friend in this new world and later becomes his wife. Using his new skills, he assumes a new human form and starts calling himself "Flio" in order to stay out of the conflict between humans and demons. However, as he makes more and more friends in both human and demon societies, Filo and his allies decide to join together and come with a way to end the war between both races and have them learn to coexist instead.

Characters

Main characters

Banaza / Flio

Voiced by: Satoshi Hino (Japanese); Mauricio Ortiz-Segura (English)

The hero of the story, a humble merchant summoned from a world poisoned by slavery and prejudice. 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, granting him strong abilities. While he desires a quiet life as he had in his old world, having no interest in fighting or taking part in a war, he ends up having to be the good Samaritan a lot.

Fenrys / Rys

Voiced by: Rie Kugimiya (Japanese); Megan Shipman (English)

A demon wolf and Flio's wife. She originally wed Flio due to her tribe's tradition of submitting to the strong after he defeated her during their first encounter, but came to love him and their simple life. Rys 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, which she is supportive of as he does not want to fight.

Balirossa

Voiced by: Aya Yamane (Japanese); Jessica Peterson (English)

The leader of a C-Rank party of adventurers who become Flio and Rys's housemates, eventually joining their neutral position toward the war. A knight of Klyrode seeking to gain a noble title 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. She has feelings towards Gholl.

Gholl / Ghozal

Voiced by: Tomoaki Maeno (Japanese); Ray Hurd (English)

The former Dark One ("Demon Lord") and a friend to Flio and Rys. The twelfth to hold the title throughout the 500-year war, he dislikes needless conflicts, which is why the Dark Army has largely been at a standstill with humanity for many years. He initially sought to gain Flio's strength for his army, but grew to enjoy his company instead. Gholl also became smitten with Balirossa due to her threatening him at swordpoint when they first met, she initially unaware of who he was.

Supporting characters

Tsuya

Voiced by: Mikako Takahashi (Japanese); Alexis Tipton (English)

A slave girl who was assigned to be the Blonde Hero's faithful servant. Despite his incompetence and inherent cowardice, she stays by his side as she firmly believes he is the hero that will save the world.

Damalynas

Voiced by: Shizuka Itō (Japanese); Ezra Vervin (English)

An ancient magic user for the Dark Lord's army who was sealed away in the Royal Armory behind the same magical seal that held Hiya. Damalynas turned the Blonde Hero into a tyrannical monster to help get revenge on all who stood in the way, and took over Tsuya's body for her own, but Hiya eventually defeats her and consumes her soul, trapping her inside their pocket dimension.

Yuigarde

Voiced by: Taiten Kusunoki

Gholl's brother, who is more ruthless than him and later becomes the new Dark One. Unfortunately, he's too much of a meat head to make any progress and is terrible at managing his territory; the Infernal Four becomes disillusioned with him.

Phufun

Voiced by: Satomi Arai

A succubus who works for Yuigarde. She tried to steer him in the right direction, but ultimately just enjoys being injured by him when he lashes out.

Greanyl

One of the Dark One's servants.

Fengaryl

Rys's brother, who was unintentionally killed by Flio's magic. Rys did not try to avenge him as she considers his death to be his own fault. He is not seen, only mentioned.

Antagonists

Blonde Hero

Voiced by: Taishi Murata (Japanese); Monty Thompson (English)

An arrogant coward, who took advantage of his status as hero to live in luxury. Unlike Flio, his status will not increase no matter how much he levels up, mostly because he is not the true hero. While the King is nevertheless supportive of him, his daughter is not. After being forced on the run for his incompetence (due to Elizabeth taking the throne and forcing her father out of power), the Blonde Hero ends up accidentally destroying all the schemes of the King and current Dark One; unintentionally fulfilling his role. Nevertheless, he still vowed to be seen as a hero and get revenge on Flio. He keeps his true name a secret.

Klyrode King/Dark King

Voiced by: Tomoyuki Shimura (Japanese); Barry Yandell (English)

Formerly the ruler of Klyrode Kingdom. He kept kidnapping "hero candidates" from other worlds to be sent as soldiers to fight the demons. Despite how incompetent the Blonde Hero is, he still chose to support him no matter what. After going into a coma to cast a purification shield around the kingdom, his daughter took the throne, which forces him out of power. Waking up, he stole funds and teamed up with kitsune twins to scam money from both sides.
