The Holy Grail of Eris is based on the light novel series written by Kujira Tokiwa and illustrated by Yu-Nagi, which started publication in 2019. Yen Press describes the premise as:
As a viscount’s daughter, Constance Grail is an ordinary girl whose only notable trait is sincerity, leaving her with no real options when someone steals her fianc and falsely accuses her of petty theft at a ball. While Connie awaits her undeserved punishment, a ghost appears to offer a bargain. The spirit is none other than Scarlett Castiel, a noblewoman once praised for her beauty, lineage, and undeniable charisma-and executed some ten years earlier for her wicked deeds. When Connie accepts this proposal, she is possessed by the infamous spirit who instantly turns the tide on her tormenter, thus saving the hapless girl from her miserable fate. It’s never wise striking a deal without knowing exactly what you’ve committed to, though…or you might find yourself bound to a ghost dead set on revenge against her own enemies!
The Holy Grail of Eris was originally a Shousetsuka ni Narou web novel. The light novels were first published under SB Creative’s GA Novel label for four volumes before moving to DRECOM’s DRE Novel. There are currently five volumes as of November 2024, with the earlier volumes getting rereleased under the DRE Novel label as well.
There is a manga adaptation.
