What should I do? Read Light Novel or Web Novel. LN has 19 volumes translated, so after finishing 19 volumes should I wait for the next vol or start reading the WN. Or should I read WN instead of LN.

read the web novel as it is way further ahead in translations, you can read it at witchculttranslations.

Read the available light novels (16-20) which are arc 5 (you can either buy them or download them online from jnovels)
Then read the web novel on wards from arc 6 on witch cult translation because they’re far ahead from the light novel and translating English volumes is so slow.

The web novel is way more detailed, which is a somewhat double edged sword, as it has some unnecessary stuff too which makes it almost double the length of LNs, also the anime is adapted from the LN, not the WN, so the chronology of events is a bit different in the anime and the WN (if you’d want to read some of the anime adapted parts)

If you are from South East Asia, then I request you, when you will start an anime, you search if it is available on Muse Asia and Ani-one Asia, before looking through piracy websites

arc 5 has one volume left rn(volume 20) and after reading volume 19 you should not just jump into the wn for it. either read arc 5 from wn from the start or just wait for volume 20(i am going for the second option) after volume 20 go on with the wn for sure

LN is good enough, you don't have to go for WN. (Unless you don't get fed up by reading.)

I think light novel and after reading all that there is read web novel. I am also amazed how lazy the english tranlators are. In my native langauge (Polish) there are 27 volumes translated.

Just one LN volume to go till Arc 5 is concluded in the LN. Wait for it, and once you read it, go for the WN.
