Tokura launched the story on the Shōsetsu ni Narō website in November 2020. Arakawa launched the manga adaptation on the Manga ga Ugau app in September 2021. Futabasha will publish the 11th compiled book volume on April 30. Seven Seas Entertainment licensed the light novel series and manga. Here’s its description of the manga:
Granting casters like Wim Strauss play an important supporting role for their team when times get tough, but after his talents hurt the pride of his party’s leader, he’s kicked out of the group!
Yet he’s not down and out for long. Wim’s luck takes a turn when he receives an invitation from his longtime childhood friend (and stalker) Heidemarie to join Nachtlibelle, an elite guild considered one of the greatest in the land. His talents may not be the flashiest, but given the chance with his new quirky crew, this supporting act might just be able to prove center stage.
