Kadokawa released the novel under its Dengeki no Shin Bungei imprint in December 2021, featuring illustrations by Chorefuji, after it won the Dengeki no Shin Bungei 2nd Anniversary Contest for the Passionate Teacher-Student Relationship category. The second volume is scheduled to be released on July 14.

Synopsis
On Meg's seventeenth birthday, she learns that she only has one year left to live. Her mentor—the Eternal Witch, Faust—explains that she is cursed and the only way to save herself is to grow a seed of life using one thousand tears of joy. Of course, such tears aren't easy to come by. As Meg begins her quest, she finds herself drawn into the lives of her friends and neighbors in ways she never imagined. By sharing their burdens and using her magic to comfort them, she learns how precious those moments of connection can be even in the face of death. (Source: Yen Press)
