An official spin-off of the the super famous fantasy "The Eminence in Shadow".OP main character × isekai reincarnation × misunderstandings!? This is the beginning of a spin-off of the super-famous web novel isekai fantasy "The eminence in Shadow".Cid is a boy who reincarnated in another world, and decided to enjoy a scenario of being "the eminence in shadow, someone who meddles with the story from the shadows, and exhibits his true power in secrecy". Thus unfolds the story of him and the secret organization he leads—shadow garden—as well their their pleasant friends! An easy-going 4-koma manga starts right here and now!

Great heroes and diabolical villains are the types of characters that people long to be—but not Cid Kagenou. He longs to become the true mastermind behind it all, pulling the strings, and having his machinations drive the entire story. In his previous life in modern-day Japan, he was not able to achieve his goals. But now, reborn into a world of magic, he will show the true eminence of shadow!

Cid Kagenou, a boy who was enjoying the “eminence in shadow” setting in another world, plays the role of the justice with the girls called the Seven Shadows (they are very serious), such that the darkness of the world will disappear (maybe). The curtain rises on an overwhelmingly chuunibyou and misunderstanding-filled serious comedy about the strongest Seven Shadows (and the protagonist)!?

I'm pretty sure this will get deleted or removed. I'm just adding this Light Novel here to make it easier to read for myself. Credit to Arbatel for a good quality translation of Volume 5.
