I'm not sure why you say footprints implies aftermath, something so destructive. None of the conversation has been about how he's been leaving destruction in his wake, quite the opposite he's only had incredible achievements with the sheep and the orc subjugations, including that extremely well written report on the forest investigation. It is like you say; "an up-and-comer is doing too well too quickly, look into his past". We the reader know he literally appeared out of nowhere in this world so he has no past. The Duke wants to know more about him, and that lack of past is something Miyabi will have to answer for when he gets pressed on the issue.
Not sure what you're referring to with "deadass". I don't know about or are questioning your groups inner workings. I apoligize if what I made you think I was agumentative or atacking you, I just wanted to point out the big error that would lead to confusion when someone were to read this back when more chapters have released.
And the "I made a connection with the the other great ducal houses". He's not talking about himself. He is already a Duke, he doesn't need connections. He's saying Miyabi has made a connection with a Ducal house (himself) and that's a big thing.
I guess I could have a look at the tl you've got though I'm not an editor or writer, there were a few other nitpicks I had in 18 but let's just move past that.
