Yen Press licensed the novel, and it describes the story:
The reclusive vampire Terakomari, or Komari for short, wakes up from her sleep to find that she’s been promoted to army commander! The problem, however, is that her new team has a reputation for grossly disobedient. And though Komari was born into a prestigious family of vampires, her hatred of blood has made her the image of a mediocrity—thin, uncoordinated, and incompetent at magic. With the odds piling up against her, will her trusty maid’s help be enough for this recluse to blunder on her path to success?
SB Creative Corp. began publishing the novel with illustrations by Riichu in January 2020. Riichu launched a manga adaptation in Square Enix’s Big Gangan magazine in December 2021.
