Anyway, no matter I'll manually remove the serif font.

There are two types of fonts.
There are the font files, e.g. *.ttf or *.otf
There are the font-style directives in the CSS.
The Manage fonts dialog is completely irrelevant, as it only affects the former.
There is no such font as "serif", in much the same way that there is no such book as "fiction" -- because "fiction" is a genre, not a title of a specific book.
Likewise, "serif" (and "sans-serif") are a
genre of fonts.
If you specify the serif "genre", an ereader or browser will look through the fonts it knows about, select all the serif ones, and pick one out of a metaphorical hat.
All meaningful changes start with the CSS.
What you want, is to direct the ereader to stop using the serif "genre" of fonts.
You can do this two ways
- Remove all mention in the CSS to font-family: serif;
- Explicitly tell the CSS to use font-family: sans-serif; (or any specific font you have embedded, if that font belongs to the sans-serif "genre")
If you choose the former, then whatever your device default is, will be used.
That may be serif.
