* UriahGambit: Subjected to one. On his coming of age ceremony, the instant he turned 15, he was sent off, personally, to rule the Shiorel Reef, the galleon that delivered him and his supplies not even sticking around to see if he landed safely. Not only was the land he was sent to rule completely barren, but it's so far off the trade routes that even pirates don't go near it.

* UriahGambit: Subjected to one. On his coming of age ceremony, the instant he turned 15, he was the king personally sent off, personally, him off to rule "rule" the Shiorel Reef, the Reef. The galleon that delivered him and his supplies not didn't even sticking stick around long enough to see if he landed safely. Not only was the land he was sent to rule completely barren, but it's so far off the trade routes that even pirates don't go near it. Rather than exile, it was basically a death sentence, as nothing short of a miracle could have saved Heal from a slow and painful death once his supplies ran out.

* TheNecromancer: In chapter 131, he reveals that he's somehow managed to gain access to necromancer magic which is so, so forbidden in Sanfaris that even researchers don't have access to it, by reanimating Heal's pet, the very same one he burned to ash for a laugh while forcing Heal to watch.

* TheUnfavorite: The royal court, including ThickerThanWater: Even as monstrous as Owen's been to Heal, Heal still sees him as his blood relatives, all treated younger brother, and it doesn't take much for Rianne to convince him with nothing but contempt to make one last appeal to Owen's supposed better nature. Owen '''turns down''' Heal's benevolence and disdain, because they couldn't figure out what chooses to face the death penalty in Sanfaris for his crest does, and the rest of his stats were abysmal.many, many crimes.

* HumblePie: While his Sanfaris victims do indeed attack and condemn him off-screen, on screen, he was on suicide watch (TruthInTelevision) while awaiting transport and extradition back to Sanfaris, but in Shiorel, aside from his brief bout of rage when he demanded his crest be returned, and his ill-advised attacks on King Louis, he does not act nor get the treatment normally associated with people who engage in long-term psychopathy, in reality or fiction, he just comes to the off-screen realization that he's been on an extended power-trip, and his actions are too monstrous to be forgiven.


Added DiffLines:

* NoPlaceForMeThere: He turns down Heal's offer of Asylum in Shiorel, after a miraculous onset of maturity and sanity, and states that his crimes are far too extensive and monstrous to be welcome ''anywhere'', and if he somehow magically escaped the death penalty, he would spend the rest of his days behind bars, as a caged "monster."

* SelfInflictedHell: As a result of a miraculous and sudden onset of sanity, he comes to terms with how monstrous he's been, refuses asylum on Shiorel, and heads back to Sanfaris to suffer the attacks, condemnation, and death penalty from the victims, and families of victims, of his many, many crimes.

* AbusiveDad: In addition to the emotional abuse, neglect, and being completely dismissive to Heal, he would either order Heal to be literally left hanging from the castle towers for extended periods of time, completely unattended, giving the poor boy a legitimate fear of heights, or he'd do it himself.
* AmbiguousSituation: After word reaches him that Heal is alive, well, and has been dubbed "emperor" by a gaggle of monsters on Shoriel Reef, the rest of his court is having a FreakOut, worried that Heal might be gearing up for a RoaringRampageOfRevenge for the crap they put him through.

* ParentalFavoritism: Heal's siblings could do no wrong while Heal himself could do no right, because Heal's crest was lackluster and the rest of his stats were abysmal.
* RightForTheWrongReasons: Sending Heal to Shoriel Reef turns out to be the right decision, as not only is the cave system the perfect place to activate Heal's crest, but under the barren, rocky landscape is a treasure trove of rare ores, and an ancient Dwarf Ruin.
* StupidEvil: He either wrote or passed a law in his home country that all monsters are to be killed on sight, even though all the citizens are born with a [Taming] skill. As showcased by Heal, [Taming] friendly monsters nets all sorts of short and long term benefits, especially ''war potential'', which the kingdom of Sanfaris desperately needs as they're caught in a MeleeATrois with orcs and goblins, at the minimum.

* SuicidalOverconfidence: He not only wanted to start a war with Heal as his ''first'' option, but hindered chances even more by attacking the crew of the ship he was riding by chopping off their arms and legs with his "wind cutter" spell to play on Heal's sympathies.
* ViolenceIsTheOnlyOption: His default response to any situation is to start armed conflict, caring not a whit about the consequences.
* WeHaveReserves: He attacks the crew of the ship he's riding to make his WoundedGazelleGambit "more convincing" stating that the poor sailors should feel ''honored'' to lay their lives down for their king in war. Professional killer though he may be, Valpas would have loved to beat the ever loving crap out of him, but was concerned that fighting Owen would only sink the ship faster.
* WoundedGazelleGambit: When the ship he's riding suffers a mishap en route to the Island of Shiorel Reef, he gets the brilliant idea to use the wounded crew members as a pretext to get Heal to allow them to land and then launch an ambush and start a war. He's completely unaware that Heal already has experience dealing with this tactic thanks to the actions of Arder and his men.

The manga doesn't name the criminal, but it might well be Owen. In the web-novel, neither Owen nor his crimes are mentioned until chapter 110.
* BadPeopleAbuseAnimals: He is on record killing a small bird that started singing outside his window because it woke him, and that's bad enough, but then he went on to exterminate every small bird in the royal city, without concern for the collateral damage, because his favorite tactic was just hurling fireballs around until he hit and killed them. Eventually, even King Louie couldn't ignore it any more, and when this psycho was brought to the royal court to explain himself, he retorts "I just wanted to make sure I wasn't woken again." [[KarmaHoudini At this, the king just retorts "I see," and no other punishment was given.]]
* BigBrotherBully:
Despite being the younger brother, his favorite joy in life is taking and destroying everything of value to Heal and getting away with it because as far as King Louie's concerned, he can do no wrong while Heal can do no right.

* AbusiveDad: In addition to the emotional abuse, neglect, and being completely dismissive to Heal, he would either order Heal to be literally left hanging from the castle towers for extended periods of time, completely unattended, giving the poor boy a legitimate fear of heights, or he'd do it himself.
* AmbiguousSituation: After word reaches him that Heal is alive, well, and has been dubbed "emperor" by a gaggle of monsters on Shoriel Reef, the rest of his court is having a FreakOut, worried that Heal might be gearing up for a RoaringRampageOfRevenge for the crap they put him through. As this is going on, he '''smiles'''. Is he proud of his son? Or is he itching to use his "conquest" crest now that he has a nice, shiny PretextForWar?
* TheCaligula: He puts Heal's older siblings on the fast-track to the throne because they've got flashy crests, and lets them completely neglect what it means to rule, but ships Heal off to a deserted, and desolate land, to suffer a slow death.
* LikeFatherUnlikeSon: He and Heal couldn't be any more different if they actively tried.
* ParentalFavoritism: Heal's older siblings could do no wrong while Heal himself could do no right, because Heal's crest was lackluster and the rest of his stats were abysmal.
* RightForTheWrongReasons: Sending Heal to Shoriel Reef turns out to be the right decision, as not only is the cave system the perfect place to activate Heal's crest, but under the barren, rocky landscape is a treasure trove of rare ores, and an ancient Dwarf Ruin.
* StupidEvil: He either wrote or passed a law in his home country that all monsters are to be killed on sight, even though all the citizens are born with a [Taming] skill. As showcased by Heal, [Taming] friendly monsters nets all sorts of short and long term benefits, especially ''war potential'', which the kingdom of Sanfaris desperately needs as they're caught in a MeleeATrois with orcs and goblins, at the minimum.
