Felix Ariel, a typical Floridian, found himself transported to a mysterious kingdom in another world. However, a misunderstanding led to Felix accidentally killing the king, resulting in his untimely demise. Following this tragic event, Felix's spirit encountered a mysterious being who identified as Felix's ancestor. This entity claimed that Felix had been cursed by an unknown individual. For Felix's safety, the ancestor bestowed upon him a system for self-defense. Upon returning to Earth, Felix realized that he would be transmigrated to the alternate world at noon due to the lingering curse. To prepare for this unexpected transmigration, Felix relied on the system, which required him to gather oil and gold to enhance his abilities. Thus began Felix's quest in the other world. With his system, he brought firearms and an ambition to spread liberty... for prosperity and freedom. ... Author's note: I got burnt out after trying to write a serious, action-packed story. So, I guess I'll return to what I do best: writing a stupid comedy novel. Again, this is a satire story. Expect memes and stereotypes. Don't take anything seriously. Lastly, this story takes place after Florida Man's General Store in Cultivation World. The MC is Leo's descendant. You don't need to read the previous novel to understand this story, but those who have will enjoy some easter eggs.

In a modern–neo-modern world inhabited by humans, furries, elves, and countless other races, supernatural abilities known as Arts have become a natural part of everyday life. Some people are born with an Art, while others obtain one through Artifacts, Scroll Arts, or other rare methods. Beneath the surface of technological progress and ordinary society, however, the world is consumed by organized crime, bounty hunters, and endless conflicts between powerful organizations. Akito Haru, a poor young man living in the small city of Lower Valley, survives by collecting ExoTrier, a rare mineral used to create Scroll Arts and valued as one of the world's most expensive resources. Unbeknownst to him, his mother, Bea Akito, was once one of the highest-ranking members of the Guardian of the Navi, an elite organization that hunted dangerous criminals before it was ultimately dissolved. When Bea's past is uncovered by KriLa (Criminal Law Alliance), the world's largest criminal organization, they seek revenge for the damage the Guardian of the Navi once inflicted upon their network. To settle that old grudge, KriLa issues a Cashtoir contract ordering the assassination of Akito Haru. During the attack, an assassin wielding SuiciArt: Destinal targets Haru. Bea sacrifices her own life to protect her son, dying from a gunshot to the head before his very eyes. Just as Haru is about to become the assassin's next victim, a mysterious man named Vivian Netra, the wielder of SuiciArt: Helping Hand, intervenes. Vivian defeats the assassin but succumbs to his fatal injuries and the devastating side effects of his own SuiciArt. After the battle, SuiciArt: Destinal is inherited by Haru. At the same time, he discovers that he possesses Art: Neutrality, an extremely rare ability that allows him to understand and partially suppress the deadly side effects of SuiciArts. That single incident changes Haru's life forever. Once an ordinary young man whose only dream was to escape poverty, he joins ProLa (Protection Law Alliance) as a rookie member of the NewDetect Division, a detective unit responsible for investigating criminal cases. Together with his teammates, Haru uncovers massive conspiracies, hunts dangerous criminals, gathers ExoTrier, and confronts KriLa as the organization steadily expands its influence across the world. Haru's journey is not driven solely by revenge for his mother's death. It becomes a quest to uncover the truth behind the fall of the Guardian of the Navi, unravel the secrets of the SuiciArts, and stop the criminal organization that has plunged the world into an era where survival itself has become humanity's greatest struggle.
