Shouma

Shouma presents himself as an easygoing young man from Kunlun Village, earning his living as a humble porter and winning the heartfelt trust of those around him—including Roid, who looks up to him as an older brother figure. Yet beneath this warm and spirited exterior lies a calculated deception. In truth, Shouma is the story's pivotal antagonist, harboring combat abilities that far surpass anything Kunlun Village could normally produce. Operating from the shadows, he forges alliances with the Demon King's forces and masterminds the flow of events, ultimately steering Roid toward the royal capital and positioning himself as the protagonist's defining rival.
