Origin: Original Character


  • Any Last Words?: Once he gets Julio to be kneeling, all while threatening to shove his fist through his head, Roger asks Julio if he has any remaining words to say in chapter 125. In response, Julio requests for Roger to rot in hell for his actions.
    Roger: Kneeling in front of my feet. This look fits you, bitch boy. Any last words?
    Julio: Rot in hell, swine.
  • Arc Villain: Of the omakes from chapter 122 onwards, Roger's defeat in the earlier chapters has him return back to haunt the Vicar by recruiting all of his remaining soldiers to stage a rebellion to dismantle all of the Four Heroes Church opposing his commands.
  • Bad Boss: When handling large numbers of troops, Roger does not bother to remember any of their names, all while he sends many of them to their own deaths to fuel his false reputation as someone that is unstoppable.
  • The Berserker: His style of fighting is to charge headfirst into battle, and to wildly punch all foes that get near him. All while he fights, Roger engages in Trash Talk to make his enemies out as cowards and weaklings unworthy to pose a threat to him.
  • Blaming the Victim: To handle the deaths of Batista's brothers dying, all while the latter survived way back in the Great War, Roger blames Batista's brothers as cowards who had died and himself being the one who could do no wrong in how he plans his tactics.
    Roger: Your precious brothers would have survived too if they weren't a bunch of useless pussies!
  • The Brute: Being Romalia's best Battle Master, Roger's main role for the Four Heroes Church is to be deployed inti battle for the sheer manpower he possesses.
  • Bunny-Ears Lawyer: As much of a complete Jerkass he always displayed himself to all of his Four Heroes Church colleagues, he is kept around and tolerated by the organization for the great strength and manpower he provides for the battles he participates in.
  • Chevalier vs. Rogue: Roger of Ajax is the rogue in the literal sense since he is the one rebelling the Four Heroes Church, along with using violent tactics with his men to overthrow his faction. Contrasted by Commander Cloud, he shows himself up in a calm and professional manner to stop all of Roger's foolishness.
  • Death Glare: Roger is left angrily glaring at Andre and Batista being two notable people that quitted on him when he needed to exploit their manpower in chapter 124.
  • Dirty Coward: After spending his time acting mighty over his pride as a warrior and using his Trash Talk profanities to label other men as weak, "female" fighters, Roger exposes his true colors as a coward behind his seemingly brutish strength by choosing to run away the moment Commander Cloud shows up and is displayed to be on an equal strength in chapter 126.
  • Evil Laugh: To say his last words to Commander Clould while running away from the havoc caused to the Four Heroes Church in chapter 126, Roger of Ajax laughs out loud believing no one is fast enough to catch him from behind.
  • Facial Horror: Getting many parts of his body be Impaled with Extreme Prejudice from the Spikes of Doom stabbing him from the ground, his face is left in grotesque state in chapter 125. Despite the injuries, Roger's Villainous Valour to be Made of Iron continues to push himself to never stop fighting against the Vicar.
  • Foil: To Commander Cloud, the ways they portray themselves in battle are the opposite to each other. Whereas Roger is The Berserker that indulges himself into Trash Talk towards enemies that can't stand up to him, Commander Cloud is filled with Tranquil Fury with the few words he bothers speaking out in his Creepy Monotone. Pitted in a fight against each other, Commander Cloud can stand his ground to fight till the end, all while Roger snaps into exposing himself as a Dirty Coward that runs away when fights are out of his reach.
  • Glory Hound: Whatever actions he takes, they are always motivated for the sake of glory to provide to himself. Even when he refuses help from high-ranking benefactors, he does it mainly so that he himself is credited for any victorious moments that occur for himself alone. Soldiers he employs, they are nothing more than his own fodder to utilize, as whatever words he claims that they should be grateful to him is merely to fuel his own ego as a competent leader.
  • Grievous Harm with a Body: After utilizing two bodies as his Human Shield against Vittorio's Elemental Fusion, Roger picks up more bodies of his own men to throw them for Vittorio to catch in chapter 125.
    Roger: Have a little taste of your own potion, bitch boy!
  • Hate Sink: On top of having a personality that has him be a Sir Swears-a-Lot coupled with the many insults he throws, his insults are given an taste of misogynism implying that he associates his hatred of men towards perceiving woman as cowardly people. All while to himself, he thinks of himself as a strong person being the main powerhouse for the Four Heroes Church, when he is really only an overconfident idiot that just has a lot of manpower to back him up.
  • Heroes Fight Barehanded: Inverted. Roger is villain that is a Sir Swears-a-Lot that finds ways to insult both allies and enemies, all while his fighting style resolves around using his fists to punch his foes to death.
  • Hey, You!: Were he need to call out a soldier of whose name he has no knowledge of, Roger would use his profanities to label them as a subject he needs to personally address.
  • Human Shield: To block off Vittorio's Elemental Fusion of fire and lightning, Roger utilizes the living bodies of his own men to act as his temporary shield from the powerful attack hurting him in chapter 125.
  • Hypocrite: Based on his Trash Talk in fights, Roger likes to call enemy forces as men comparable to what he perceives as comparable to weak women unable to fight, whenever people fail to overpower his strength. However, when put to an equal footing against Commander Cloud, Roger fails to live up to his statements as a masculine man, by being the Dirty Coward that runs as soon as a person has a chance of beating him.
  • Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: Many points of his body are left bleeding from red spikes making a sudden appearance in the ground to stab him.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: Being initially victorious and posing a major threat to stopping Naofumi, Oersted, and Malty from making their escape out of Melromarc, Roger of Ajax slowly faces the retribution of his actions when his own soldiers start declaring their own Mistreatment-Induced Betrayal to stop him from further progressing his goals to kill the Vicar.
  • Leeroy Jenkins: His plan to attack the enemy fortifications back in the Great War was to have his troops charge at the front with no aforementioned planning afterwards. The result was that all of the soldiers, except for Batista being the Sole Survivor, had died.
  • Lethally Stupid: His poor tactics to have his soldiers attack the front of the enemy fortifications to make everyone appear flashy for the sake of his ego in the Great War had caused all of the soldiers, except for Batista, to die.
  • Made of Iron: Whatever injuries he endured from the Spikes of Doom impaling many holes inside of his body, Roger's Villainous Valour in chapter 125 motivates him with rage to be determined in fighting on all the remaining foes.
  • Miles Gloriosus: Roger enjoys boasting of his masculinity as something that makes him a great warrior, but as others have noted, Roger is a coward that Screams Like a Little Girl when bit by balloons and had a track record of getting several of his own soldiers killed for his own Glory Hound ego back in the Great War.
  • Mistreatment-Induced Betrayal: Since he can't be bothered to care for his Lethally Stupid planning that always result in his own soldiers dying to fulfill his desires as a Glory Hound, as well as care to remember any of their names, Batista and Andre refuse to continue serving him out of the pent up disdain they have.
  • Never My Fault: Where times an event goes wrong, his troops are killed, or opposing enemies emerge triumphant over him, Roger places the blame on his own allies failing him or his enemies getting lucky, rather than to admit his poor and reckless planning in the name of glory.
  • Noodle Incident: He once had a tussle with Mala back in the Great War, and was even feared in the name of War Dog. However, whatever fearsome reputation he had in the past eventually diminished, and no exploration of who Roger used to be is never explained, as a result of his death in chapter 120.
  • Not Quite Dead: He looks as though he had died in chapter 120 when Uranus perform his Taking You with Me to collapse the ceilings of the sewers everyone was below in. Coming by chapter 123, Roger of Ajax is revealed to be alive, although he is covered in a mess of sewage in his return to confront the vicars.
  • "The Reason You Suck" Speech: On the receiving end of the trope, Roger is exposed as the selfish Glory Hound he is by Batista and Andre calling him out as an incompetent leader who only gets his own soldiers killed, all while he does not even bother to learn any of their names.
  • Red Baron: Roger had a terrifying name back in the Great War where has known as, "War Dog", not much is elaborated on how he got the name from.
  • Screaming Warrior: Engaging in a fight against the Vicar and his own men in chapter 125, Roger is left screaming in all corners of the battle murdering anyone getting close to him. Each few times he bothers to speak, Roger's dialog consists of insults for the Vicar to personally confront him in a battle.
  • Screams Like a Little Girl: He screams with a loud screech from a bite of a Yuzu that disrupts all his masculinity he initially displayed insulting everyone.
  • Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Just as he gets up in chapter 126 after getting tossed onto the ground, Roger realizes that Commander Cloud is an equal or stronger opponent than him, so Roger chooses to run away from all the fierce battles he started all to save his own skin.
  • Sir Swears-a-Lot: Plenty of his dialog to insult someone is to call them in derogatory terms to make them look like they are too weak to stand up against him.
  • Soldier vs. Warrior: Being on the side of the warrior, Roger of Ajax uses his muscular physique to rampage across battles and be The Berserker that puts down anyone failing to overpower him. Commander Cloud on the other hand is more sophisticated in his way of fighting, as he remains focused with his Tranquil Fury to say only small words to not recklessly waste his energy.
  • Straw Misogynist: Implied. Though he has not specifically targeted women as a gender he hates, Roger uses their stereotypical "weak" traits as a way to frame himself as a masculine man, all while demeaning and downgrading the achievements of other men using insulting slurs related to women.
  • Talk to the Fist: All while Uranus is left in disbelief monologuing on why he would betray the purpose of the Four Heroes Church to join with the Three Heroes Church, Roger delivers a punch to Uranus' face to knock him out from speaking anymore words in chapter 118.
  • Team Killer: Despite being in the same faction of the Four Heroes Church, Roger betrays him by having his own men attempt to murder the Vicar, and goes as far as to treat his soldiers as a Human Shield or to weaponize their bodies.
  • Thin-Skinned Bully: He can dish out beatings or yell out casual profanities like a Sir Swears-a-Lot, but just a bite from one of Naofumi's balloons in chapter 118 is enough to have Roger of Ajax to Screams Like a Little Girl.
  • Too Important to Remember You: Having thousands of demi-human soldiers hired to fight beside him, Roger makes no effort trying to learn any of their names, only resorting to Hey, You! or a sort of derogatory mention.
  • Trash Talk: As he is fighting his enemies in battle, Roger uses the few times he gets to talk as a chance to demean his enemies with his Sir Swears-a-Lot insults and make them out as cowards that stand no chance against a direct fight against him.
  • The Unapologetic: He got Batista's brothers killed in the Great War, but not once has he apologized to Batista himself for his own poor planning for the loss of important lives.
  • Ungrateful Bastard: No matter how many lives are lost for all the people that have supported him, Roger never once bothers to show ounces of gratitude at their successes or accept responsibilities relating to their deaths.
  • Villainous Breakdown: Experiencing his own troops leave him for his own selfish and rude behavior in the name for his own personal glory in chapter 124, Roger breaks down in a fit of rage announcing that he will kill all that stand in his way.
  • Villainous Valour: With the one exception of him that Screams Like a Little Girl from a balloon bite, Roger lives up to all his rude proclamations of himself being a mighty warrior, by having the bravery to face down the Vicars, despite getting betrayed and outnumbered by his own men. Subverted by chapter 126, as while Roger acts like a rampaging warrior to foes weaker than him, having to face Commander Cloud on equal footing is what pushes Roger to run away from all the bravado he once displayed.
    Vittorio: (Whatever one can rightfully accuse the brute, he is not a coward.)
  • Wham Line: Roger reveals crucial information regarding Mala's past life as being Siltvelt's Strongest Tiger, before Defecting for Love to eventually serve King Aultcray and Princess Malty.
    Roger of Ajax: What's the matter, 'Strongest Tiger' of Siltvelt? Why are you trudging through shit like common rat now? Going through all of this shit. Did the king spare you a second glance? Was it worth it for you to defect from your country of animals to pine for his attention, only to end up being used as a glorified servant by him?
  • Would Harm a Senior: Roger drives a powerful punch onto Uranus, who is an old, retired battle priest, and such a punch gets the latter knocked onto the ground in chapter 118.
  • You Are in Command Now: Having gotten many of Batista's brothers killed for his own poor planning the Great War, Roger promotes Batista as a captain simply for being the Sole Survivor amongst the many dead soldiers.

  • Blind Obedience: Deconstructed. His obedience to always be out on repaying Roger's service ends up being at the cost of Sebastian's life, since saving Roger from Lord Commander's thrown sword only means Sebastian sacrificed himself for a battle saint that does not value his life.
  • I Owe You My Life: Deconstructed. While owing your life to a good person to repay their gratitude would be viewed as a positive, Sebastian owing his life to save Roger at all costs ends up making Sebastian look like he is too caught up in his Blind Obedience to understand Roger does not value him, when Sebastian saves Roger from a flying sword in chapter 126.

He wanders his thoughts of worry from what the rest of the Three Heroes Church members may become without Pope Balmus taking charge, until he notices Mein near him in chapter 99.

  • Escort Distraction: To stop Mala from wasting her skills to volunteer herself as the decoy for the Three Heroes Church to be lured by, Uranus stands himself to be the one that should be the decoy for the Three Heroes Church, believing his skillset as a person falls short compared to Mala.
  • I Will Only Slow You Down: Feeling too tired to continue running alongside his group, Uranus stays behind to collapse the ceiling of the sewers to substitute his lack of stamina to follow up with all of his companions, as he does not want his presence to slow them down on their escape in chapter 120.

  • More Expendable Than You: He has himself be the volunteer for collapsing the ceilings of the sewers in chapter 120, as he believes himself to be only useful for fighting the current enemies, instead of Mala having better stamina for better versatility to help the group.
  • Knows a Guy Who Knows a Guy: Anytime time his allies come across a person they have no knowledge of, or need to find someplace for assistance, Uranus is likely to be the one sharing close connections with that person, due to his old age going through adventures with them in the past.

    Uranus: And you (Streibough)! You need to stop flaunting your intelligence, and respect other people's secrets!
  • Someone Has to Die: Cornered by the Three Heroes Church members from letting anyone leave the sewers, Uranus takes Mala's place to hold down the pursuers by using all of his powers to take all of the enemies down to death with himself.
