The series is based on the Japanese fantasy comedy light novel series written by Toba Tooru and illustrated by Fal Maro which was originally published as a web novel. It has been collected into 8 volumes as of December 2020 by SB Creative under their GA Bunko imprint with the first volume published on May 12, 2018.
Yen Press published the novel in English in their Yen On label since September 3, 2019.
GA Bunko describes the series as:
The prince of this small and weak kingdom strives for only one thing: selling out his country and living a quiet life in leisure! Sadly, the greatest obstacle he will ever face is his own genius...! As he achieves ever greater accomplishments, he earns more and more favor with the people of his kingdom...which makes fulfilling his own dreams all the harder!!!
