Ok, so the MC kills 20 bandits with magic and everyone is okay with it despite the Arcanum ban on harmful use of magic?

The protagonist was captured by a sex goddess and he was so good at having sex despite being a virgin that the sex goddess fell in love with him. It's been a while but I can't remember if this was before or after he talked to the evil tree or stayed with that matriarchal tribe that didn't know how people got pregnant where he learned their whole system of martial arts within a short amount of time.

...and your problem with this book is that the protagonist killed 20 people.

>For the next seven years Pat studied anthropology, philosophy, eastern religions, history, alchemy, parapsychology, literature, and writing. He studied six different martial arts, practiced improv comedy, learned how to pick locks, and became a skilled lover of women. He also began writing a satirical advice column which he continues to this day: The College Survivial Guide. Through all of this he continued to work on his novel.

It's semi-autobiographical anon. Some of us are skilled lovers of women, it's not that unrealistic.
