The series has over 1.3 million copies in circulation across 10 novels released as of May 2023, with the 11th dropping on February 29, 2024. Let This Grieving Soul Retire was also adapted into a manga series, serialized in Kadokawa’s Dengeki Comics Next. The ninth volume will be released on February 26, 2024, making this a pretty good month for fans.

J-Novel Club licenses the light novel series while Yen Press licenses the manga. The former is described as:
It’s the golden age for treasure hunters—adventurers hungry for wealth, fame, power, and glory, who risk their lives in treasure vaults throughout the world. “Let’s become treasure hunters.” Krai and his childhood friends swore to become the greatest of them all, but that dream should have died the day Krai realized he wasn’t cut out for the job! Yet expectations continue to mount, right along with Krai’s fear for his life. While his childhood friends climb closer toward their dream, this grieving soul has one simple wish: to pack it all in and retire!
