So I get MC not being able to technically do anything because his whole thing is that he doesn't want a country of people worshiping him as a god or fearing him as a demon lord. Although that's the case, why the FUCK doesn't the king/MC just put 24 hour surveillance on this Marquis since they already suspect him of evildoing.
Like, if MC thought there would be proof in that building, why did he leave it alone instead of immediately looking for shit? "Let the guards handle the rest" bitch, the guards have already proven to have some corruption in it. Why not immediately put HUMAN surveillance on the Marquis under the excuse of his own well-being since he was witness to a crime? Sure, he'll protest, but overall it'll go through.
I know isekai usually have shit writing, but most of the ones I've read either try to go all in on the regardedness or don't take themselves seriously at all. This one seems to be trying to do something in the middle and it's...kinda going badly.
Thanks for the chapter, as always.
