Kodansha published a novel based on Naoki Yamakawa and Akinari Nao‘s I’m Standing on a Million Lives (100-Man no Inochi no Ue ni Ore wa Tatteiru) manga on Friday. Nao illustrated the novel, and is credited for the original manga, and Yamakawa is credited for the original work. Writer Sawako Hirabayashi, who wrote the script for the anime’s ninth episode, penned the novel.
The novel features an original story that takes place after Glenda joins the party as the sixth player, and depicts a quest where the party must defend the village of Zagros from annihilation.
