Jason arrives at a kingdom in peril and he's surprised to discover that it's not his job to save it.
With the authorities fulfilling their responsibilities (for once), he looks forward to some quiet time to rest and recuperate.

About the series: Experience an isekai culture clash as a laid-back Australian finds himself in a very serious world. See him gain suspiciously evil powers through a unique progression system combining cultivation and traditional LitRPG elements. Enjoy a weak-to-strong story with a main character who earns his power without overshadowing everyone around him, with plenty of loot, adventurers, gods and magic. Rich characters and world-building offer humor, political intrigue and slice-of-life elements alongside lots of monster fighting and adventure.
I like magic. I like puns. I like wit. What more do you need from a fantasy book?
