I really like the construction of Rou's personality, he IS a villain, if you think in the human way, but at the same time he is THE HERO for the goblins and everyone in Parabellum. I also like a lot how his morals are very, very flexible and how it evolves with each chapter.

There is also the fact that he quite the good king, I kind remember the book The Prince by Maquiavel, when he says that a ruler shall not be good nor evil, but fair and feared (I think that was the resume by my philosophy teacher). For example when he kills the Hobgoblin of the Old Generation torturing him in front of everyone - he makes himself feared - and when he rewards those who deserve it, for having evolved, for example - he shows fairness.

Another facinating fact is shown in the SideStories, how everyone who was captured by Rou or for Rou- the human girls, the Female Knight, the Rusty Iron Knight, the Kobolds, the Elves, the Orphans - ended up admiring him as a leader, giving him their full loyalty and/or love.
