Originally, Mochimaru Sakaki self-published The World’s Strongest Witch on Shosetsuka ni Naro in May 2022 before it was later acquired for print publication by Square Enix. The series has since released five volumes under the SQEX Novel label, featuring illustrations by riritto.
A manga adaptation illustrated by Tamaki Toga is also currently ongoing. In English, the light novel is published by Yen Press, which provides an official description of the story:
When Lorna manifests a completely useless ability, she’s labeled an embarrassment to her family and kicked out of the house. With no money or food, she’s about to hit rock bottom.

Armed with godlike knowledge, Lorna’s free to do anything she wants! If only she could figure out what “lmfao” means…
