Man, I love this king. He's not evil (as far as we know), and he's not an asshole, but he's still a scheming conniving sonuvabitch - even if he's just trying to get the best possible outcome for the people of his kingdom and for his daughter. He reminds me a bit of the king from Isekai Tensei Soudouki, although this king is less of a jerk about it.
This is a really fun series.

"pedophilia/predatory behavior" isn't the thing its going for. Until "recently" the age of consent in Japan was quite low, even then it's no one being a "predator", that's mostly American views on literally anything, e.g Girl is 17 with a birthday in 2 days, boy is 18..boy is still a predator and pedophile for those 2 days.

@Dat_bois1 Nope.
It's a different world, that's first and foremost. Forget all your preconceptions.
Second, if we go for normal settings in middle ages and stuff, at that age boy and girls would already be having relations. And girls in particular be having arranged marriages, if they're nobles (not saying it's a good thing, just saying it's the norm there).
Third, he is not using his "superior knowledge" to "groom" her, or manipulating or seducing her in any way.
Fourth. The maturity of a 20yo Japanese with a somewhat normal life, vs the maturity of a 14yo that's been abandoned, seen war, etc. I'd argue who's the "adult" here.
So...no. It really does not matter, at all.
Also, bonus. Don't mistake age for experience. If our MC is your average glorious Nipponese, he's a virgin. So he may be 20, but effectively he's just as innocent as she is.

Being in a different world wouldn't change yoir taste.
Would a 20 year oldman fall in love(Romantically not by their seduction) for a 14 year old girl?
He won't groom anyone since you said it yourself that "He's as innocent as her".
Being abandoned, seeing war, etc Doesn't make you an Adult.

@HelDeo "Being in a different world wouldn't change your taste." True, but not sure that was the point. The question was whether the age counted, and I assumed it meant whether it's "important/relevant". And no, it's not. If you like her, you like her despite her age. If you don't, you don't (again, despite her age. Mentally immature, phyisically immature... but not "cause she's 14 and that's wrong").
"Would a 20yo man fall in love for a 14yo"? Maybe. IF the 14yo is physically AND mentally mature, why not? As I said, leave your this-world preconceptions aside for a minute, and forget whether "it's wrong" or not.
The reason we're not, in general, physically attracted to children is biological, cause they can't produce offspring yet. But have you seen some 15yo? And I mean both guys, who hit the gym and look more like an adult than many adults I know, and girls, who already have the hips and bust of full-blown woman. OF COURSE you'll be physically attracted. They look like adults. The dealbreaker is that 1) "it's wrong" and 2) if they're still mentally behaving like kids, you're not mentally stimulated for a relationship.
In this case, these girls very much look like adults, so... physical attraction, check.
As for the mental maturity... leaving aside that EVERYONE in the manga is a moron so that the MC can look even smarter, I'm not sure they behave like your average 14yo. I'd say they're pretty much mentally mature, too. You can engage in serious conversation with them, and they follow and encourage it too. Isn't that what you want in a relationship?
So...mental attraction, check.
"Being abandoned, seeing war, etc Doesn't make you an Adult." I didn't necessarily mean "be an adult", though I used the word. My point was maturity.
Children are children mostly cause they can be. I have had the (mis)fortune of knowing a kid who lost his mother in gradeschool, and his father was a wreck. He had to mature quickly. That's actually the literal definition that psychologists give for those situations. The kid can't afford to be a kid anymore.
That doesn't automatically make them adults, ofc not, but that was my point.
A sheltered 18yo that's had a normal life has WAY less life experience than a 14yo who's had to survive. And the literal reason why relationships with minors "are wrong" is because you have to protect them from the adult who may manipulate them. But again, if the younger one is more mature in this situation...protect them from what?
So, to end the rant. No, age does not matter in this case, at all. 3 for 3 (or 4 for 4, depending on how you want to count). You CAN say "well, I still don't like it and I think it's wrong", and that's fine. That's your personal opinion. But objectively speaking...

Age wasn't my point. My point "Would he fall in love to people he sees as little siblings?"

@HelDeo I don't know what you want me to tell you, man.
At this point I don't even remember if Almus mentioned thinking of them as little sisters. Maybe he did.
Bonus: did you know that the "Incest" tag is a thing, both in porn and irl?
And did you know that some people don't regard Incest as a thing _because_ of it, but _despite_ of it (meaning, "so what if they're my sibling? I love them)? And that's IN our world. If you ever get Isekaid, I hope you're able to get some flexible thinking. Otherwise you'll have a bad time.
I mean, when in Rome...
