Kazuma Kannagi was the eldest son of the Kannagi family and presumed heir. However, due to his inability to use "Enjutsu" (炎術?, Blaze Technique), the power to control flames, he was considered to be useless within his family. Despite his inability to wield fire, his father insisted on him competing for the right to wield "Enraiha" (炎雷覇?, Blaze Lightning Supremacy), a sword that was wielded by the family heir. The 18-year-old Kazuma was soundly defeated by 14-year-old Ayano Kannagi, his second cousin, and banished from the family. Four years later, he returned as a master of "Fūjutsu" (風術?, Wind Technique), the power to control wind, and with a new name: Kazuma Yagami. Soon after his return, several Kannagi family members were killed and the murder weapon is revealed to be Fūjutsu. Kazuma is presumed to have committed the murders in revenge for his banishment. As a result he is confronted by various members of his former family and forced to fight to prove his innocence. The only person he wants to fight is his father, the strongest Enjutsu user. Kazuma defeats his father in a duel. After the fight he goes back to his hotel and finds his brother, Ren Kannagi, at his hotel room. After losing his brother to a powerful demon, he goes to the Kannagi household and convinces the current head of the family (Ayano's father) that he is innocent. He is reunited with Ayano and his younger brother, Ren, who is also gifted in Enjutsu, although things get off on the wrong foot when Ayano, believing that Kazuma to be guilty, attacks him without warning.

Kazuma happens to be a Contractor, having entered into a contract with the "Kaze no Seirei-ō" (風の霊魂王?, Wind Spirit King). Due to this, Kazuma is able to draw upon all wind spirits in the atmosphere, which amplifies his inherent powers, and allows him to heal his wounds. When using this power, his eyes turn azure blue. However, this ability puts a strain on his body, as it is his stamina and will that limit the amount of power that is used. When Kazuma is extremely angry, his eyes turn crimson red and his wind turns black and he is able to read minds. In this state, he has no qualms in hurting others with his abilities, as long as he gets what he wants. However, when in this state, his overall powers seem to be weaker because as stated by Ayano he is drawing only on a few emotions and is not in complete control of his powers. When Ayano helps him snap out of his rage, he states that his black wind is pathetic. At one point Ayano states that she was never afraid of him in his normal state, as he is so overwhelmingly strong, her fear seemed pointless. When she realizes that she fears his black wind, she knows she has a chance of defeating him, because that fear means that his power is no longer 'god-like.'

It is later revealed that after Kazuma was banished from his family, his only desire was achieving great power. He traveled to a small town in China, where he caused all kinds of trouble until he met Tsui Ling, with whom he fell in love and eventually lived with. This brought a bout a change in Kazuma as he was content with his life: he no longer desired power and was happy just living with her. He also took up a job as a freelancer, doing simple odd jobs. His happiness, however, came to an abrupt end when an organization used Tsui Ling as a sacrifice to summon a powerful demon. Blaming himself for failing to protect her, Kazuma once again sought out great power, leading to his engaging in a contract with the Wind Spirit Lord. Some time after becoming a Contractor, he killed the one responsible for Tsui Ling's death. Later, two years prior to the series' beginning, Kazuma made a name for himself as the demon-like wind mage, who did not hesitate to hurt others as long as his task was completed. However, his personality began to turn for the good once again after returning to Japan and meeting Ayano. Near the end of the anime, he admits that he could now love another person besides Tsui Ling and comes to realize that he is actually in love with Ayano.

In the light novel, it is revealed that shortly after Tsui Ling's death, Kazuma attempted to commit suicide, but was saved at the last moment by a traveling Taoist sennin. The immortal felt the potential within Kazuma and brought Kazuma to his mountain where Kazuma spent the next year and a half in training. Li Lonyue, another one of the Taoist's disciples, believed that, with more training, Kazuma had the potential to become an immortal like them. However, Kazuma refused the offer, as he found immortality to be pointless and boring, instead opting to leave the mountain when he felt ready to carry out his vengeance.
