Lastly, K-Manga describes the series as follows:
Rein the Enchanter is a support mage with the ability to enhance weapons and armor. But when he gets fired from his guild for the simple reason that he’s already enchanted everything they own, he decides to take the power back into his own hands—literally! Rein recalls every enchantment he ever put on his guildmates’ gear, retrieving the bonus points for himself. But does he really not have anything better to enchant with them than some Plain Clothes and a Copper Sword…? Come along on a cheat-tier journey from the most common of common origins!
