The main character being insecure doesn't mean he's a selfish brat. He's someone who's always been compared to his brother and feels insecure for it. I wouldn't even say the MC thinks his brother is ruining his life, he's just self conscious and afraid of being compared to his brother. For his...
It wasn't really that uncommon for domains to be split up historically. The geographical location doesn't really mean much, the idea of contiguous borders is very much a modern one. Actual feudal era maps are wild. You can read it as the stepmother waiving all rights to that area by leaving it...

The Thunder Gods have pretty consistently played into inflating Ren's ego so I'd guess they're trying to push her to do something stupid, possibly cause a strife within the Mato corp. All of her interactions with Yuuki have centered around him being the dominant one and as a counter to her...
I'm pretty sure at least her participation in killing the Demon King was known so they'd know she is probably a powerful mage, and one that isn't under their control. They'd probably rather kill her than risk her becoming a problem.
