Yen Press publishes the light novel series in English, and it describes the story:
Once upon a time, there was a witch named Elaina, who set off on a journey
across the world. Along the way, she would meet all kinds of people, from a country full
of witches to a giant in love with his own muscles—but with each meeting, Elaina would
become a small part of their story, and her own world would get a little bit bigger.
The novel series ranked at #9 on the 2018 Kono Light Novel ga Sugoi! list, and at #6 on the 2019 list. SB Creative published the first novel in April 2016, and is publishing the 13th volume in July.
