A disgraced alchemist reincarnates as a powerless boy on Copper Island, defending his sister from aristocrats and a vengeful rival.
Episode 1–8English
Grief over his mother's death drove a supreme celestial alchemist to seal his abilities and accept death, only to awaken inside the frail, fourteen-year-old body of a boy on Copper Island. This industrial domain operates on steam technology and is dominated by predatory noble houses alongside a decaying empire. Five iron rivets driven through his frame suppress his dormant magic, rendering him physically weak and magically nullified in a hostile environment.
His sole protection is a sister whose fierce devotion refuses to let him break, even as predatory aristocrats circle the vulnerable. Complicating survival, a rival alchemist from his former celestial existence hunts him relentlessly, determined to seize the immense power he buried within himself. The boy must navigate this web of nobility, imperial corruption, and magical vengeance while stripped of the strength that once defined him.
