It would be pretty bad to just sit and wait when you know someone with lots of resources is planning to have you either murdered or discredited. It's not like Yuusuke himself would be lacking options. He even has all kind of contacts and trustworthy people on his side, granting a wide variety of ideas and means to execute them. Technically he also has got quite a lot of weight to throw around if he so chooses. If he forces some nobles to pick their side, his side might look more likely to win.

Can we make our own suggestions for next move?

I would remove all the buttons from their persons...including the belly button.

To be honest, the idea of a king suddenly promoting changes to the official religion and the traditional class system looks quite controversial on its own. These conspiring nobles might be opportunistic, but I'm sure more people would rise up against the Dark God if they knew of the king's secret plans.

Galaxy Brain move: Just fucking kill them all.

Seriously. Kill the whole anti-whatever faction. They're the ones who are against you to begin with, no one else is going to use that to try and go against you. If you have them discredited posthumously as rebels against the crown, that sends the message to anyone else who might want to use this as an opportunity to rise that following in their footsteps, using ANYTHING that they used, going after ANYONE they went after will be seen as harboring intent to harm the nation.

Not to mention that getting away with doing this tells anyone else that if they want to try and be just as evil and insidious, they can disappear, too.

It's not murder. It's house-cleaning. It's not like the same thing didn't happen in our history time and again. Nobles start getting too uppity - they forget that their nobility is a reward for hard work (those that didn't buy it) of their ancestors. They think it means they're in line for the crown and it belongs to them, but the king's currently just holding it for them.

I fear this story will never pull itself out of the poorly set up political conflicts.

MC basically enlisted himself and is meddling heavily as an outsider in an extremely complicated and dangerous power struggle between the "blessed" and everyone else.
Hes playing as an agent inside a political system antithetical to his own goals, because the royalty are somehow reformists, while the greater nobility are conservative.

While its no skin off the royals backs, royals are royals and will always be royals by force of sword and by church - blessings or not, it does effect the balance of power across the entire nation and the legitimacy of radical fringe groups.

As a reader, I have little investment in the state of the kingdom - no matter how "cute" the loli *vomit* princess is. I also cant care about the "dark god squad", it is a band of well trained servants of the princess following the MC around. Once again, very little investment, its just another day in the office for these guys... and for the MC. Their loyalty is to the crown and the princess, they only have a business relationship to the MC and by extension the readers.

Normally you tie stakes to the conflict - give or dangle a valuable thing (family, peace, wealth, "flof") in front of the MC and the reader, compelling them to put their hat in the ring. I see zero reason for the MC to have ever invested himself in this conflict.

The entire story has been derailed because the MC got dragged into a river of "current events" that the reader has no way of ever caring about.
Especially since the exact structure of the conflict is bogus, convoluted and ridiculous. We are following a military unit under the command of a child operating without proper counsel.

Changing the world isn't the express goal of the MC, its kinda a "meh, maybe I will do something". MC isn't "reborn head of a noble house" with responsibility to his subjects, and he isn't an aspiring war lord. We are watching a character choose to participate a battle that he has no stake in for 0 reason other than a loli princess decided to take a shine to him.

"Are you following this?"
No, I'm not following. The conversation is so confusing for a simple faction plot.

Fking finally, if you know who is the mastermind but didn't have any proof just make a move yourself.
Honestly Yuusuke can make some kind or audio recorder and get it inside the marquis home/office quite easily with his abilities.

@Kyujyu can't act carelessly because the anti dark god squad has the other 2 red head families in charge who reign over others. The country would be split without good evidence.

It's been a long time since I've seen a plot this complex in a manga.

MC : "How about we make a move too?"

Me : "Well no shit, sherlock."
