And you're right. That's actually the dichotomy of Adelaide's rule. Not only that, but Mamono capable of monsterizing human women are banned from the realm as a whole---with the exception of Adelaide herself, of course. Her critics have raised that point in no small part. In truth, though, the law only applies to weapons and armor, Golems are exempt, as long as they aren't weaponized. If you really wanted to dig into it, Whitemarch is a realm that is carefully balanced, everything kept in check by a thorough system of iron-fisted bureaucracy that teeters on totalitarianism. The thing that keeps it from slipping down that slope are Adelaide's fierce devotion to the cause rather than herself, and the fact that she actually gives far more more freedoms to her populace than either the Order or the Maou. We'll get to that if you want to know more.

As far as other laws go, as I said, all magic and magical aphrodisiacs are banned, as well as Mamono who are capable of spiritual corruption. Radical Faction and Sabbath members are considered dangerous, are banned throughout the Realm, and are arrested and dealt with appropriately. As far as other laws go, just ask.

Different provinces have their own variations on the laws. For example, Arenesse, the province of the Elves and Doc's childhood home, has trained the finest mages for a thousand years, so magic is allowed there under certain circumstances.
