Eh, Griffith is suffering pretty bad from a terminal case of bottomless ambition. He has everything he ever wanted and yet he's still miserable and desperate for more.
Stabbing everyone who he ever held even the tiniest amount of camaraderie with in the back isn't great for one's mental health, surprisingly.
It's more implied than explicit. He gets his kingdom but wants to extend it to the whole world. Guts' refusal to submit continuously gets under his skin even if it's just a mild annoyance. He doesn't seem to enjoy his minions as much as he did the Band.
