You have to understand that the king is not human. He is incapable of feeling human emotions. Like the preivious commentary wrote
“ he isn't happy that doram's brother is dead. he's happy he was able to gather information doram WANTED to know for him. as some other comments said, he took it literally and obviously didn't think anything of the content of the information, and just that fact that had news to deliver.”
Why would u think he would be happy to hear his brother is dead… You gotta be another level of socially inept istg
