He had to bribe people to tell the truth while multiple cities worth of people were on the line, there was a 100% method to tell if they were lying to the face of royalty, and he still had 99% of them keep their mouths shut. None of those people would have said a damn thing without circumstances forcing them to.

It’s definitely surprising they killed her. That’s a massive weakness for the kingdom now that practically makes them a vassal state and even as an evil saint it still implies that a major god had her back enough to grant her purification magic strong enough to be a saint. That country is screwed six ways to Sunday as one of the possible consequences of enacting justice is that they just pissed off a god.

He only mentioned bribery and threats when it came to those who worked for her family. When it came time to investigate the constant bullying that was seemingly happening at the academy, he didn’t mention needing to bribe anyone when it came to investigating the academy. It seemed more like there were rumors that everyone was spreading about her bullying her sister and people believed them but nobody had seen it themselves.

as for killing her, yes they’re basically s vassal now but only until a new saint is born in the country. Three existed there recently so it doesn’t seem like it’ll take an absurd amount of time. In contrast, if they’d let the evil sister live, it’d make the royal family look weak and corrupt and would fully tick off this new other country where mc is overwhelmingly beloved and queen. I’m not really sure what the god Is thinking there but clearly mc had stronger magic and got stronger through this journey so she was in the right. Maybe if the sister could compete with her magic it’d be a different story but this way they just need to grovle A bit to their neighbors for maybe 10-20 years.
