Lloyd Belladonna wants to become a soldier, but he's the weakest boy in his village. He moves to the big city to join the military academy, not realizing that the people of his village are incredibly strong compared to outsiders.

Marie saves Lloyd from a terrible fate by stopping the fight between him and Allan, and reveals her true identity to Chrome. Marie and Chrome decide to execute Marie's plan to stop the kingdom from going to war.

Lloyd manages to somehow fail the test, sending those who are already aware of his strengths scrambling to figure out what went wrong.

Marie faces off against the culprit that took over the king's body to drive the kingdom towards war. Meanwhile, Lloyd finds the courage to go against Marie's own wishes to go and assist her.

Peace returns to the kingdom. Lloyd, still oblivious to his strengths, continues to support his friends in any way he feels he can. Seeing Riho get depressed after meeting an old acquaintance, Lloyd devises a plan to cheer her up.

The magic contest is on! Selen faces Phyllo, Lloyd fights Mena, and Riho is prepared to settle her old grudge with Rol.
