A screen was floating in front of me. 「 Welcome, new adventurer! 」 "Adventur...rer?" But..... I'm so small! My body is the size of a 9 year old kid!

When I look at my status, I'm not neither a mage that cast magic nor a swordsman that wields a sword, instead.... I'm a puppeteer!

Yet still has time to go to school and hang out with his friends who are also very interested in games. Then, VRMMOs were introduced on the 18th of August and they were the new trend in society for gamers. Reitsu was very excited but all of the required equipment to play the game was sold out and he spent a week sulking in his room or in the corner of the classroom (he was forced to go to school), until he felt better. But, his all interesting friend, Rea Zia, gave him a present on his birthday which was on the 31st of August. A present which changed his life and the way he lived.

With his cousin Jay, his cunning friend Eli, and the sharp-witted mage Mira, he sets out to shape not just weapons, but their destiny. But rare materials lie in dangerous lands, mythical beasts guard the best ores, and only the sharpest minds-and sharpest blades-can survive.
