Transmigrated as a Puppeteer

After taking a hard fall, Jiang Yin, a notorious troublemaker from the ancient world of mechanisms, transmigrates to another continent and becomes a student at a junior academy for puppeteers.

The original owner of his body was bullied at school and beaten to death by a group of people on a rainy night.

This is a world overrun by monsters, where the strong prey on the weak. If he wants to survive, he has to become stronger.

On an outing, Jiang Yin finds an injured little bat.

It has tiny horns on its head and its eyes are closed. The heart-shaped tip of its little tail sways as it curls around his finger...

Without letting on, Jiang Yin sneaks this adorable little contraband monster back to his dorm.

He goes to great lengths to treat its injuries, fussing over it all day with cuddles, hugs, and kisses.

Then his little darling disappears.

The next day, he receives a challenge from the academy's top student, Luo Xingchen, a noble young master from a family of puppeteers.
