The Law of Justice Online, also known as LJO, is the hottest new VRMMORPG of the season, and office worker Yuta Sasaki is one of the lucky few granted access to the official launch. After some careful research, Yuta is chomping at the bit to start his virtual life as a Tamer, a class that harnesses the powers of wild monsters. Luckily, upon building his character, Yuta manages to land not only his chosen class, but a heap of bonuses to boot! He soon finds, however, that his abilities are not all they're cracked up to be, and that the talents of the rare first monster he is granted lie not in combat...but gardening! Already well behind the other adventurers, and facing a long and slow progression path ahead of him, Yuta is left with two choices—start over from scratch, or make the best of what he has been given. For Yuta the choice is obvious: When life gives you manure...start up a farm!

LJO–aka Law of Justice Online–is the newest full-dive VRMMORPG to hit the market, and office worker Yuta—or Yuto, as he goes by in the game—is ready to spend his whole vacation immersing himself in the experience. His dream is to become the strongest Tamer, commanding the most powerful monsters, and he’s even willing to shell out the cash to do so! But when he arrives in the world of LJO for the first time, Yuto is shocked to find that the special monster he planned to leave all the fighting to is...a monster dedicated to farming—without a shred of combat ability? Despite it all, Yuto quickly decides that his adventures in this world will involve way less fighting epic battles and way more harvesting plants, as he prepares to take the game at his own pace and with his adorable, trusty companion by his side!

The event celebrating the arrival of second-wave players has come to an end, and Yuto has emerged with a decked-out house and a slew of prehistoric mascots. Now he’s back to taking care of his farm, ready to test out Rick’s new Forest Sorcery skill. While it comes in handy for farming, the skill turns out to also have a surprising ability: it can summon a demon! Bracing for a fight, Yuto enlists some help, only for things—as always—to take an unexpected turn... Afterwards, Yuto makes the most of his return to the main game by visiting a traditional Japanese town, challenging the Earth Elementals’ trial again with friends old and new, continuing a quest chain, and much more.

Shortly after LJO’s first major event, the vivacious and musically gifted Fau joins Yuto’s ever-growing family, and Yuto finally graduates from newbie status when he moves up to an advanced job class. Meanwhile, another player succeeds in unlocking an Elemental Gate—one of four mysterious locations named after the classical elements of Earth, Water, Fire, and Air. What wonders await Yuto when he stumbles upon another of these gates by chance and decides to embark on a journey?

Despite the newfound infamy his titles have brought him, Yuto has been enjoying his MMO life, unconcerned with his reputation. With the birth of Bear-Bear, a new tamed monster hatched from an egg acquired at the Magical Beasts Guild, Yuto finds himself surrounded by a growing herd of adorable critters. Unbeknownst to Yuto, however, a group of players who have had their eyes on him, hoping to learn what secrets Yuto knows about the monsters, have begun laying plans of their own...

After braving the Fire Elementals’ trial, Yuto and his companions welcome their newest member, Himka, into the fold. As a change of pace from their dungeon crawling, the group heads to Zone Three to search for new materials and to get to know the four local towns. During their quest, Yuto unsurprisingly strikes gold again, stumbling upon a previously undiscovered secret location. With the addition of yokai to the game, new creatures lie in store for Yuto and his monsters to encounter: the adorable Obake, the playful and fun-loving Zashiki-Warashi, and many, many more.

A chance meeting with the Sequoia Dryad leads to the addition of a new tamed monster, Sakura—and now Yuto’s team is finally equipped for combat with monsters! As Yuto and his companions flex their skills on both the battlefield and the farming fields, Yuto unlocks a new skill, triggering the start of a surprise quest chain. Meanwhile, the egg Yuto purchased from the Magical Beast’s Guild is showing signs of hatching, and there’s no telling what sort of powerful beast will emerge from within...
