[10] After publishing the first parts of his work, Rifujin wrote that he intended the series to last at least a hundred chapters.

[11][12] Originally, the story arc where Rudeus' reunites with Aisha was supposed to be completely different from the published work. [13] The author intended to have Lilia die off-screen, and Aisha to be hiding under a different identity. However, he found Lilia's death anticlimactic and decided against it; thus, he had to rewrite the story arc to make sense of her survival and lack of contact. Rifujin stated the story arc might be bizarre due to the changes but expresses no regrets in his decision; he noted Lilia's survival made him reconsider Zenith's condition in the story. [13] The
climax was
influenced by Re:Zero.
Regarding the ending of this novel, Rifujin was thinking of writing until Rudeus died, and at the same time, writing until Rudeus turned 34 because he died at the age of 34. He also said that since the prologue is about an unemployed man who is kicked out of his house, he did not
want the story to end with someone being beaten up. In addition, even if he continued the story, it would just be a repetition. [14][4] Adaptation[edit] Director Manabu Okamoto found the novel controversial but at the same time first rate.
