@Bored-chan And she is a kid who has yet to be harmed by him(directly at least). To her he has given her no evidence that he is a bad person. If you know much about Marvel, think Winter Soldier. Was he given the choice to kill? Of course not, he was brainwashed despite killing so many. If you look in the early chapters it literally mentions that the duke didn't want to kill these people but was not given the choice. It's likely that if he disobeyed he would be severely punished (maybe executed) and a large amount of his servants and knights would be executed. If you were forced to choose whether people you've never met dying or killing somebody you've never met what would your choice be?

It's a bit of a rant but I'm getting irritated by people blaming somebody for something they never had a real choice.
I regularly pull all nighters after getting distracted while reading.

@Muzan Jackson sure she might have not been directly harmed her, but he killed her family, thus causing emotional pain. Her being alive might've been bc her mother managed to escape and even if he didn't kill her, it doesn't make him the least of a merciful or good person.
As for the orders, it depends mostly on how much power the emperor had at hand, but we can't forget he was a Duke(coming in power only behind the emperor himself), he is not someone you can usually execute simply for not following an order and he had an army of his own. Never heard of that marvel dude but it could be comparable to na*** soldiers, did they truly have no choice but to kill and (usually) torture them all? Were they simply following orders? Would they truly all be executed if they didn't follow an order? It's a moral question that's been debated for long but there's also plenty of evidence that most of them indeed had a choice.. even if it was punishable to some degree
