A Modest Hero, in a Future where Everyone is a Cute Little Girl!
How is it possible to live in a world where "being a little girl" has become the norm, at the cost of one's humanity?
In this world, there is a device called the Charm Ring: using state-of-the-art technology, it allows its wielder to genetically synchronize a digital avatar with their real world self, to become their "Charming Form;" which can gain tremendous reality-bending "System" powers that come with a price, called the "Ifstate," which is a unique action the user must perform in order to activate the power: ranging from the mundane (like bending spoons) to the extreme (self harm).
Yet, despite how commonplace this technology has become, a young man named Alex Strangelove insists on not using his--simply because he finds it to be too distasteful! Even though he wants to join the ranks of the Vorpal Knights--soldiers sworn to protecting the remnants of mankind, in the aftermath of the devastating "Tea Time" global virus pandemic.
However, will his resistance prove futile?
Is becoming a little girl simply the next great step in human progress, that he must finally come to accept?
Who is the "Mad Hatter" behind it all?
