An ordinary Japanese man reincarnates as Carmine, the emperor-at-birth. At first glance, it seems like the typical cheat life with guaranteed success, but his reincarnation in the Bungdalt Empire, however, the Emperor is a position constantly under threat of assassination by the nobles. To the nobles, the Emperor is nothing more than a useful puppet—a palanquin that can be discarded at will. This is the reality that Carmine faces.

The masterminds behind the assassinations spare no mercy, even against children, but Carmine remains unfazed, having studied history and being well-versed in political maneuvering in his past life. Not only does he manipulate people’s hearts with fake tears and innocent smiles, but he also brilliantly outwits them using advanced magic!
