I, Who Was Dismissed as Worthless Failure by my Family and Fiancée, Discovered I had Reincarnated as a Game Character I Raised with Great Care and Vowed to Take Control of my Life and Defy Anyone who Opposes Me. - Chapter 61: On the Verge of Rampage

Chapter 61: On the Verge of Rampage

After listening to one of the soldiers who was holding the rope that bound the filthy insect who spat at me, his owner, and tried to escape, ignoring my order to bring back Kaisar alive, the son of the Kvist family known even among the nobles as someone unusable, I replied in a voice that echoed throughout the throne room.

“I see. This fellow not only took Goen, an S-class Imperial adventurer known as the Dragon Slayer but also gathered a considerable number of military police and imperial troops to head to the Kvist family and secretly brought along his son to give him credit and secure a position?”

“Yes! That is correct!”

“Furthermore, he not only suffered a disastrous defeat with such a large army but also attempted to use them for his own personal gain, then plotting to escape due to being afraid of reporting it to me?”

“Yes! That’s absolutely right!”

Despite him ordering my soldiers to bring Kaisar back, he failed to capture him. Every time I asked about the cause of his failure, his face changed rapidly. At first, he was probably angry at the common soldier providing me unfavourable information without hiding anything, but as his face went from red to blue, green and white pale, his breathing became rough, and he sweated excessively.

It was enjoyable in its own way to see such change.

Normally, I would pretend to be angry at my retainers or nobles who deliberately made small mistakes and enjoyed that change (sometimes actually executing them to maintain tension), but I didn’t have the luxury to enjoy his expressions this time.

In my current state of mind, there is only intense anger. 

I am barely containing the impulse to shout and summon the imperial army to kill Kaisar. 

However, if I were to do that, I would be played by that scum and look like a small-minded emperor in the eyes of nobility and the commoners, so I desperately hold back my anger.

Otherwise, I might become a laughingstock for the commoners to pass down through the generations. 

And the current situation is not allowing me to act as I please, further fueling my anger. The negative chains are tormenting me.

When I remember that this suffering is caused by that scum, I feel like I’m about to go crazy with anger again.
