There's so much wrong with your post that I hardly know where to begin.

There is no "remote" enough village in this world, that also has people living there, that isn't land owned by a noble. ALL nobles are "major", they see themselves as being far superior to commoners and to kill a noble is to throw a rock at the hive and declare war on all of them. You don't have "minor nobles" in the sense of some little guy who's the mayor of one village, they're all feif owners who have full jurisdiction over whichever villages are nearest to their feif than another feif and they're all either family of the king or some sort of higher up like important generals and their next of kin, not just any old random person off the street who cut the last guy's head off.

Go to York in England right now and try to run the place, if anyone complains just cut off the Duke of York's head and declare yourself the new ruler of the place, I'm sure everyone will cheer for you and the queen won't mind that you just decapitated her second son because you'll do a better job than he was doing and make more coin. It should work with no problems, you said so yourself!
That is basically what you are proposing here.

@Amplify You seem to know awfully lot about the place when we have barely seen anything. It's a world where a marquess couldn't get rid of a monster with all his armies without help from the MC. And how would you know if the world has remote places or not? Your word here is no better than mine. It's all nothing but theories based on insufficient information.

Who the hell is talking about today and the Duke of York? That's what you said, not me. Don't confuse yourself and me. What I'm saying is he could kill some pesky knight overseeing a village in the boondocks. Unless the knight was a count's cousin, the count would be more interested in gold, should the MC be able to provide it, than any grand justice. However, I don't really see why he should do anything like that. He should just live silently somewhere until the twins grow up and become independent. However, if some local tough guy of a small village tries to get on his case, he wouldn't need to care.

Dude, there's a novel and it gets translations waaaaaaaay more regularly than this manga.

The Duke of York thing is called an ANALOGY, silly me assuming you were smart enough to understand that much. You want an example of how assured and conceited the people of this world are that's in the manga? Page 14 / 15 / 16 of chapter 1. Look at that general and his attitude, then ask yourself how these people would respond if Adris were to kill ANYONE even remotely related to them, be it a knight or anyone else. Again though, multiple villages are owned by one major noble who rules the places remotely - you go killing his lackeys and he's not just going to let it slide.

I would have taken his hand or something at the very least, for that.

Hey everyone like @zz2000 mentioned the author recently provided a world map of the Countless Swords universe here:
(Orginal JP ) https://mypage.syosetu.com/mypageblog/view/userid/221661/blogkey/2524336/

But as it is in Japanese I decided to translate it, so feel free to share it if you want...

(English Version)

According to the web novel (ch. 39), this house is located somewhere in the Causasus Forest for about two hours walk away from the Royal Capital Gran.

That Hidden Village in the Map is mentioned in the WN chapter 220, so it will take a long time for Aldis and his friends to find it

If there cover up was that good, Mr. Infomerchant wouldnt really know the girls were there either then. There were enough living survivors for most of what happened to be whispered in his ear, so he should also know that both were strong enough to kill anything short of an army. The merc was nowhere near the caliber needed to take on the Swordsmen.

@Hell_Satan
o_O but he had the information, even if he thought it was false. He could have easily corroborated it from other sources but chose to brush it off as bullshit because it sounded outlandish... sounds like a rather pisspoor infomerchant then.

@JavelinJoe
As above, the guy had most of the real story, just thought some of it was bullshit exaggeration. They say a well crafted fiction is easier to believe then the unvarnished truth. In this case he took the middle ground and failed miserably to find the correct info.

This chapter really is interesting. In fact the most interesting so far.

Tbh if I were in the shoes of our mc, I would've prob just straight up assasinated the info broker after I had known that he tried to sent mercenaries after my ass.
(Then again I would've also killed the noble and general from the previous town (Thoria), so that there would be less "loose ends".)

After all that is pretty efficient way of not leaking the info, since it's always a risk after that, that he would just sell you out when he'd get the chance.

Also in that situation you should consider shaving your head bald (if you don't have the technology/magic to dye your hair color to something other than black, or wearing a believable wig)

Maybe them kids can soften that cool but cold heart of hers and then mc can give it the final touch of flying sword play to make her more open about anything other than lord this and lord that.
