He didn't instead Hermaeus Mora killed him but Miraak's soul was absorbed by the LDB. The very same thing Miraak said required to break free of Mora's control is now in the Last Dragonborn's hands. It is dubious how Mora just threatened the Last Dragonborn but didn't oppress him the same way he did with Miraak.

The whole point is, considering the number of Dragons the LDB killed, he is a pretty large piece of Akatosh, too large for me to think the Chief Deity will not do anything if Hermaeus try something funny.

Elder Council? Whenever the Emperor's bloodlines were broken, they were only interested in preserving their own interest rather than seeking out if there's more Emperors. Plus, with such a huge Elder Council if only 1 guy wants to kill him and he is like missing in Cyrodiil for at least 3 or 4 months, other Elder Council members would've noticed it already, especially if there's an effective group in Elder Council loyal to Mede II. Remember that the Empire is pretty much their backyard. They should know important thing going on at the back of their palms, the rest didn't do anything.

So the Elder Council has decided to send this dude to assassinate Titus Mede II and cut off all connections with him while he perform this duty in order to ensure that the Emperor won't have a tool to take them down if the assassination attempt failed.

Considering if the Emperor dies and if a huge enough portion of Elder Council supports Medes II, he wouldn't be so happy just because Mede II dies. He wasn't killed by a Daedric Prince, he was killed by Ragoth, a Dragon Priest, then he was doomed to Apocrypha because he was the Champion of Hermaues Mora.

The reason he doesn't threaten the LDB is because the LDB did not "harbor fantasies of rebellion".

The LDB having "many Dragon souls" is speculation, as far as we know he has only killed two, possibly 3 Dragons in the canon lore. He only has specific shouts. Gameplay =/= Lore. The "chief deity" is an Aedra, one that needed the assistance of someone of the bloody Dragon Blood to get to his own realm; Tamriel, and even then he barely slew a Daedric Prince who invaded. Akatosh is weak compared to Hermaues Mora.

Prove it. And the Council isn't in Cyrodiil 24/7, they only gather when the need arises to discuss something. Except for the head of the Elder Council, who is there every day.

If nobody knows what Motierre is doing, he could get away with it. Motierre could even have a master plan assembled that he could begin executing instantly.
