Synopsis

[Multiple Heroines] + [Western Fantasy Farming] + [Interdimensional Capitalist] + [Subverting the Tropes] + [Lighthearted Comedy]

“Boss, why does your roast meat make me feel fuller the more I eat? You’re suspected of using spatial magic illegally. I’m shutting down your kitchen!”

“You’re selling me a pound of lotus root, but half of it is holes!”

[Ding! You’ve successfully spouted a load of nonsense with a straight face and picked a fight! Reward: Max-Level Berserker Physique!]

Kane, a seasoned workplace nitpicker, transmigrated to another world and became the sheriff of Blackwater Town. By chance, he awakened the [Nitpicking System]. As long as he could find fault with something, he could exchange his points for invincible combat power and anything under the heavens!

To avoid the System’s bizarre execution penalty, which would confiscate his “tools of the trade” if he couldn’t find true love within thirty days, Kane was forced to launch a completely ruthless border crackdown.

But as his operation kept growing, the people around him took things in a very different direction:

The elven princess he’d taken in as a defective product gazed at him fervently. “The boss is my salvation. I’ll spend my whole life cooking up perfect fake accounts for him!”

The haughty royal knight he’d tricked into working as a free city inspector let her imagination run wild. “You just don’t understand! Lord Kane bears the age-old infamy of a corrupt official just to protect the border in secret! He’s a true hero of the night!”

The seductive vampire countess licked her lips. “Mr. Kane, you’re the perfect mate!”

The higher-ups at the Imperial Capital’s Inspectorate were even weeping in despair. “Please stop picking fights! You’re going to extort the imperial treasury into bankruptcy!”

When the allied armies of the other world trembled as they tried to put down this “Dark God,”

Kane put his arm around the bewitching elven princess in his embrace and spread his hands helplessly. “I swear, all I wanted at first was to earn some nitpicking points!”
