Novel
Written by Hisaya Amagishi, the series began publication on the novel posting website Shōsetsuka ni Narō on April 1, 2018. The series was later acquired by Media Factory, which began publishing the series in print with illustrations by Kei on October 25, 2018. As of June 2022, eight volumes have been released.

In July 2021, J-Novel Club announced that they licensed the series for English publication

Manga
A manga adaptation, illustrated by Kamada, began serialization in Kadokawa Shoten's Comp Ace magazine on April 26, 2019. It completed serialization on February 26, 2020. The series' individual chapters were collected into two tankōbon volumes.

Style
The idea of "making modern tools with materials and magic from the fantasy world" was born from Amagishi's dream. Amagishi often writes her own dreams as stories, and she sleeps reading materials that can be used for stories and writes down the dreams she remembers the next morning Magic tools are also one of the ideas born from the above-mentioned dream.

In drawing the characters, Amagishi is conscious of the points that "they are multifaceted, and their viewpoints and positions look different" and "people change over time", just like real people. I try not to fix it too much in the scene, such as a kind person showing a ruthless side on the battlefield.

Abilities
A 「Magic Artisan」 that exerts various effects using magic stones as a power source. In many cases, materials obtained from specific monsters are used to create a new magic device. The user is able to use a form of magic that allows them to craft magical items/objects that may be functional or strictly decorative out of any/all materials or substances including non-physical magical and conceptual materials.


 * They can make things like furniture, sculpture, clothing, jewelry, household items and tools, or even machines such as the handmade devices of a watchmaker, up to and including architecture, and do so with beyond flawless results because these items have magical propertiandhey may also some additional functions as well.

Dahlia develops magic tools (item creation) from the knowledge of the previous life, but since the structure itself is only roughly known and the processing technology was acquired after reincarnation, it is a step for other veteran engineers to mass-produce and improve. There are many inferior aspects. Rare materials may be needed, and after a large request to an adventurer, she runs a farm in the guild. Dahlia's use of mana is intense, but Dahlia has inexhaustible mana, so she can create as many things as she likes. Sometimes the tools that she creates become more powerful when she does not completely analyze how to maximize the power output, sort of like the standard becoming an absolute weapon.
 * Hairdryer - It is a magical tool that emits warm air, but the one made by Dahlia and Carlo in good condition is as powerful as intermediate fire magic. Later, it was also used as a "shoe dryer" by changing the air temperature.
 * Small magic stove - - What was basically deferred and made portable.
 * Tarpaulin - Used for tents and rain feathers.
 * Foam pump bottle/Foam Soap Dispenser
 * Five-toe socks and dry insoles - Originally devised and developed for Carlo, they were inundated with large orders, such as the demon subjugation unit and the royal palace, because it wasereanded over to Wolf. This is because athletes' foot is a common problem for people who wear leather shoes and boots because they only take off their shoes when they sleep and when they take a bath in the world they are working on.
 * Dry Soles
 * Water Proof Fabric

Production Background
Amagishi, who had about a week of free time due to the bankruptcy of a client, was recommended by a friend to write a work on the subject of "broken engagement" as a change of pace. At this point, I was half joking, but on the same day, my family told me that I had never been on April Fool's Day, and my family was reading "Shōsetsuka ni Narō", so Amagishi said, "Let's say I started writing a novel on April 1st!", and decided to start writing this work on the same day. In addition, she actually posted her work in "Shōsetsuka ni Narō" because she did what she said, and it was on the afternoon of April 1 that she realized that April Fool's Day didn't work.

The spin-off work "Fukushoku-shi ruchia wa akiramenai: Kyō kara hajimeru kō-fuku keikaku" was made into a book after many readers wanted to read the story of one of the characters, Lucia. Amagishi thought that it would be easy to write about the subject of "dressing artist" because Lucia appeared more often in her own dreams and because she had a hobby of sewing.

TV Anime
An anime television series adaptation was announced during the 10th anniversary livestream of the MF Books light novel imprint on August 27, 2023.

Reception

In the Kono Light Novel ga Sugoi! guidebook's tankōbon and novel category, the series ranked ninth in 2021 and 2022 and second in 2023.

The series has 1.2 million copies in circulation.
