After receiving an isolated shop as a gift from her teacher, she embarks on the quiet life she has long dreamed of as an alchemist. However, what awaits her is a more decrepit shop than she ever imagined, outside the boondocks. While she collects ingredients, she trains and sells goods to become an upright alchemist, she tries to lead her life as a slow and relaxed alchemist.

Fantasia Bunko began publishing the printed volumes with fuumi illustrations in September 2019.
