Inspired by various novels, animes, and games involving secret organizations and hidden powers, Cid decides to build his own secret society and become its shadow leader. He operates under the code name "Shadow Cloak," and he believes that being the orchestrator behind the scenes is cooler than being the protagonist.

Cid recruits a few trustworthy friends who share his passion for creating an imaginary secret organization. Together, they aim to carry out absurd missions and cultivate their own legend. They also strive for recognition from other existing secret societies within their school and ultimately compete with them.

However, as Cid delves deeper into his new role, he begins to realize that his fantasies and reality might not align. He faces challenges in managing his virtual secret society while maintaining a normal student life. As the story progresses, Cid's skills, knowledge, and influence grow, leading to encounters with real secret organizations and unexpected consequences.

The series has received a positive reception for its humorous and satirical take on the isekai genre tropes, often seen in anime and light novels.

In addition to the light novels, "Kage no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute" has also been adapted into a manga series and an anime television series, which premiered in 2021.
