Kodansha USA Publishing licensed the manga, and it describes the story:
Prince Lloyd wasn't always a prince...in fact, his previous life is one he remembers perfectly: he was a sorcerer, of sorts. So when he was forced to reincarnate, he decided to continue his studies, prince of the realm or no! But his new life has its own sets of challenges...including being a 10-year-old! What's the 7th prince/sorcerer to do?!
In October 2019, Kenkyo na Circle made its debut as a web novel on the Shōsetsuka ni Narō website. Following this, Kodansha started publishing the light novels with artwork by Meru in July 2020. In Japan, the ninth volume of the light novels was released on March 31st.
