What's with JP authors writing MC that let serial rapists, murderers, bandits, and slavers free with "a stern warning"?
Do they not have the intelligence to write characters that know if they're doing it now, they've probably done it before, and will do it again to other unsuspecting victims -- because of (their character's) ineptitude?

The MC was a very successful assassin himself, which makes him a serial killer. Considering he worked for the king, he was a political assassin, which means he most assuredly also killed people who didn't deserve death, they just happened to be politically inconvenient. I can't remember anymore if such a detail has been mentioned in the manga. Nevertheless, he's himself as deserving of death as many others, so ironically he's more consistent and less of a hypocrite by leaving dubious people alive. Otherwise he would need to kill himself as well.

I think you're arguing ad extremum. I highlighted the key bit that breaks your argument.
You're equating "state-run special forces" with "violent criminals and thugs". So I can't take your argument seriously. Soldiers follow international conventions on rules of war. Criminals don't.
Although soldiers can become criminals through breaking those codes. Criminals can't. The statuses are orthogonal.
Again: he was literally state-sponsored special forces. The "legitimate government".
If the kingdom was overthrown by an enemy country -- the "legitimate government" may change -- and yes, maybe then he would be hunted down as a "wanted war criminal" instead of "retired war hero".
And technically, he's still engaging in government work (the guild) and work for the king (saving the princess from roofies, escort, organized crime prevention, counter-demon-terrorism).
...but we're not talking about that. We're talking about two bandits/rapists who assaulted and were about to sell a free citizen into slavery.
I'm pretty sure everyone in uniformed service (and "silent service"/CIA) would pretty vocally object to this statement.

It doesn't change anything. He's a serial killer because he has killed a lot of people, outside of an open war. Everybody always has an excuse, like working for a legit goverment. Even nazis and communists tried to use that excuse, although the communists got away with it since they won the war. The government he worked for happened to be an autocracy, which automatically means any human rights are a very ambiguous concept. The only legitimacy is that the government is stronger than any opponents, and an assassin is merely a tool to keep it stronger.
Also, towards the end Roland saw through it and didn't give a shit anymore. That's why he spared the demon queen he was supposed to kill and made her his wife instead. So, why would he need to kill random criminals either? In the eyes of the surviving victims (families, allies, friends) he would be no better than those criminals.
