He practically the saintess killed (saved only by deus ex machina ) and those kids in the basement prison, hello? Guaranteed not the only victims (ie the ones already killed or sold into slavery). The only reason he still walks free is bad writing and gross incompetence on MC and the kings part.
Hm, arbitrary decree vs rule of law? I don't know, seems more like if the King acted how he wanted, he'd lose his political support over a single noble. Now that would be incompetent. He knows he's the culprit, he can just have him watched. The previous chapters pointedly noted there was lack of evidence in several ways.

Somehow bad people go jail, good people always perfectly have all the cards, sounds more like bad writing to me. The irony of this being a power trip manga series is not lost on me, but still.

While in our world standards yes your right. One big difference is the norm of carrying a weapon. Carrying a blade is totally normal there, which is why they generally don't count the weapon as in play till drawn as to draw it means a willingness to use it. If they get in a brawl but don't draw their weapon it just treated as a unarmed fight.
...Did you miss the weapon in the guy's hands waving it at the other guy? Seriously, you people.

You need to brush up on your law; what occurred was textbook (Aggravated) Assault with a Deadly Weapon by Threat. Assault is generally defined (differently worded depending on state or federal code of law and by country, of course, but the general principles hold true) as, "an intentional threat or attempt, coupled with apparent ability, to do bodily harm to another, resulting in immediate apprehension of bodily harm. No bodily contact is necessary."
'Our law' =/= their law in another world

Cain's trying to hook his second older brother up, he was escorting a potential marriage partner for an arranged meeting. She's not going to be part of Cain's harem.
Yeah he has enough already and more to come 😂

Medieval isekai aren’t democracies. Absolute monarchies rule absolutely. The word of the true God is absolute. projecting modern values on a power fantasy to excuse the MCs incompetence is just bad writing. what’s next? is the world ending evil he’s up against going to have some delicate political circumstances he’s gonna have to impotently bow in response to? I’m sure those dead and enslaved kids will understand.

This clearly shows that you dont read the chapters or dont understand them besides me explaining why they dont go outright killing him like you want. , therefore I give the advice to read again and maybe try to think a bit.

PS even monarchies are NOT absolut, because support from the nobles is still needed and doing stuff the way you do will lead pretty quick to a rebellion from the other nobles. I hope you at least know the difference between a competent king and a tyrant.

there’s nothing deep about what the author is doing bruh. This is a waifu collecting isekai ffs. Why give this lad the authority of god if he’s just gonna limp dick everything. This is just bad writing. period.

To be honest, I was rather out of it and didn't double check. Its why I worded it more as just like listing trivia. And why I didn't say you were wrong, As he had a weapon out it just means what I said doesn't apply here, but is still generally true. My point was more centered on that modern laws and their law have some clear points were they can't match up.

That's what I read. I think I got it right.

Also, an escort mission? Doesn't he have enough to do already?

Seems fair. Force a quest on them and they can't cancel it without penalty. I don't think that's quite on the same level as a small scuffle that hadn't even escalated to anything criminal.

On the other hand, that's a fair joke at their expense, to hide his identity so they make fools out of themselves.
nope it's for his BROTHER NOW!!! YAY LESS HAREM

Absolute monarchies don't rule absolutely. Absolute monarchies are safe from reprisal from the commoners, but not the landed noble class or other royals. Royals require the support of the noble class, or else they can install another royal who can be reasoned to have as much God-given right to rule, in the place of an unpopular monarch. The most unpopular monarchs and many who actually ended up deposed, historically, have been those who were harsh, untrustworthy, uncaring or sometimes outright tyrannical towards not the people, but the noble classes and their concerns.

Given the popularity of this King, such a thing will probably not shake the his power in his generation. But it could create a problem for Cain, who he intends to install as his successor, and his children, who have no wide power base yet.

I've heard a lot of crap on these forums before where people don't appreciate how much personal power and 'divine authority' many monarchs have. So I can relate to that notion. Don't be mistaken that I am not aware of the setting, or how monarchies worked historically. But saying the King can do whatever and doesn't have to care about his political base at all is just the extreme opposite.

There's also the fact that monarchs like this tend to like to set an example when it comes to rule of law or upholding of traditions by applying it to themselves, lest the noble classes abuse their position over their lessers or commoners in the same way. Likewise why don't you refrain from applying modern capitalist or nihilistic values here? Many monarchs believed in their own role as God's guiding beacon on Earth and applied it to their own scruples.

Assault is generally defined (differently worded depending on state or federal code of law and by country, of course, but the general principles hold true) as, "an intentional threat or attempt, coupled with apparent ability, to do bodily harm to another, resulting in immediate apprehension of bodily harm. No bodily contact is necessary."

I suggest you do more than just quote one part of one version of a law. In most places in the world, charging someone for assault by a deadly weapon without any contact usually has to include a verbal or otherwise relayed threat of using said weapon.

The reason is that threats are actually taken more seriously than actual bodily harm from a certain point of view. Bodily harm could have been unintended or unplanned, meanwhile a threat is a deliberate attack already made on the psyche of another, and can have long term consequences.

Drawing a weapon and waving it around is too general to be considered a direct threat against another person. The person might be charged instead for drawing the weapon, if it's illegal in that jurisdiction to brandish a specific weapon or something that could be taken to be a weapon. But it wouldn't fall under assault.

One of them said he'd break the other guy's hand, but neither said something like "I'll cut you" or "I'll kill you". That's also being generous and applying modern laws to what is a medieval frontier city...as many have pointed out. In those days, did you think town watchmen or guards had such laws to enforce? They'd only intervene if a fight really broke out, and it would be for fighting, not drawing a weapon. Or a proactive guard might stop them and haul them in before they fought, but again it wouldn't be because of some law.
