THE STORY

About I'm a Terrible King—Please Rebel

Grayson transmigrates as a "Tyrant" bound to a Squanderer System: to achieve immortality, he must ruin his empire's prosperity. He purges loyalists, promotes his bumbling father-in-law, and wastes military funds on "scrap metal". However, every sabotage triggers a miracle! The "scrap metal" becomes world-changing technology, and his "incompetent" hires turn out to be hidden geniuses. As the national fortune skyrockets, the path to heaven closes forever. Grayson, the man who tried his hardest to fail, is now hailed as the greatest Emperor in history.
