The novel was first serialized on the user-generated novel publishing website Shousetsuka ni Narou from April 2012, then its print edition has been published from Micro Magazine's GC Novels imprint since June 2014. So far fifteen volumes have been available in Japan. Its English edition has been licensed by Seven Seas Entertainment, and its first volume is set to be released on September 21, 2021. The publisher introduces its synopsis as below:

Sakamori Kagami was one of the top players in the VRMMO Ark Earth Online as Danblf, a veteran summoner with the gravitas to match his elite status. When he falls asleep playing one day, he’s transported to a world where the game is reality—but instead of his all-powerful avatar, he’s stuck in the body of a cute young girl! He can’t let anyone know that this little cutie is really Danblf, so he takes the name “Mira” and claims to be Danblf’s disciple. If this gets out, he’ll never live it down!
