I use more or less the default settings (for Kobo Aura). I have just add -toc- and -bpc 2. And maybe something more. But the output font size is 12.

And the strange thing is that I have managed to convert this book a couple of months ago without this kind of problem. But I just don't remember have I did it.

I just want to learn more about this.
This is happening because the page size of your source PDF is very large -- 13.7 x 22.9 inches. That's probably a conversion mistake somewhere in the creation process (maybe it was supposed to be cm?). You can see this by clicking the INFO button in the k2pdfopt GUI (or use the -i command-line option). Use the -ds option to correct for this. E.g. -ds 0.5 will get k2pdfopt to treat the document as if it is half its reported size, e.g. 6.85 x 11.45 inches. In the GUI, you can put the -ds 0.5 option into the "Additional Options" box.
