It's Light Novel Volume 1 onward. The manga's way behind, and the original web novel is mostly in Japanese unless you find a fan translation, which can be spotty. The LN is the only version getting consistent English releases. I'd stick with that.
Alright, so you're trying to tackle 'Assassin's Skill in Another World: Strongest'? I spent a weekend sorting this out because honestly, the naming and release order is a total mess across sites. You're probably looking at the web novel origin, then the light novel, and maybe even the manga adaptation—they all tell the same core story but with different pacing.
Start with the web novel. It's the raw, unfiltered version the author posted online, usually on sites like Kakuyomu or Shousetsuka ni Narou. That's the foundation. After it gained popularity, it got picked up for a light novel release with illustrations, edited prose, and sometimes extra side stories. The light novel volumes are your main 'official' read. Finally, there's a manga adaptation that follows the LN plot pretty closely, but it's obviously way behind. My advice? Read the light novels from Volume 1. If you get impatient for new content, jump back to the latest web novel chapters.
Man, I just binged this whole thing last month and the order is simpler than people make it seem. Forget the web novel unless you're a completionist or can read raw Japanese; the official English translation is only for the light novels anyway. So just grab 'Assassin's Skill in Another World: Strongest' light novel Volume 1 and go from there. The manga is fun but it's barely adapted two volumes worth of material, so it's more of a visual supplement.
I tried reading the web novel after the LN and the differences aren't huge for the early arcs—just some rougher writing and less polished world-building. The light novel is the definitive version, and since it's still being published, that's the reading order you should care about: LN Vol. 1, 2, 3, and so on.

A witch who has lived for thousands of years has grown bored with her own life and decided to leave it. Since she is an immortal, her soul cannot leave the world.
However, what she can do is transfer her soul to another body.
By a stroke of luck, she happens to enter the body of a princess.
She was considered a miracle because when the Empress gave birth to her, the princess instantly died, along with the Empress.
What the witch didn't know was that she has entered such a predicament.
She has to endure the love of the cruel Emperor and possessiveness of the crazy twin princes!
What will her life be at the hands of such a loving family?
In addition, it seems that this body contains mana that was lost in the royal family centuries ago!
Evy was a simple-minded girl. If there's work she's there.
Evy is a known workaholic. She works day and night, dedicating each of her waking hours to her jobs and making sure that she reaches the deadline.
On the day of her birthday, her body gave up and she died alone from exhaustion.
Upon receiving the chance of a new life, she was reincarnated as the daughter of the Duke of Polvaros and acquired the prose of living a comfortable life ahead of her.
Only she doesn't want that. She wants to work.
Even if it's being a maid, a hired killer, or an adventurer. She will do it.
The only thing wrong with Evy is that she has no concept of reincarnation or being isekaid. In her head, she was kidnapped to a faraway land… stranded in a place far away from Japan. So she has to learn things as she goes with as little knowledge as anyone else.
Having no sense of ever knowing that she was living in fantasy nor knowing the destruction that lies ahead in the future. Evy will do her best to live the life she wanted and surprise a couple of people on the way. Unbeknownst to her, all her actions will make a ripple. Whether they be for the better or worse.... Evy has no clue.
Al, was thrown into another world for no apparent reason. A new world filled with magical things. However, this wasn't the first time he had been reincarnated. He thought he was just an ordinary youth, but it turned out that his identity was so extraordinary in his first reincarnation. There were his harems still waiting for his arrival. Will he meet them soon and what will happen?
~I was a good looking prince when I was reborn, and because I could do indecent things as much as I like, I decided to make a harem while travelling with a beautiful female elf~

In his previous life, he was just a plain-faced man, so in this world, he uses his high position as a prince to his advantage and keeps holding beautiful women in his arms, every day in his life.

Just ran into this myself after grabbing volume 3 on a whim, then realizing the story was already in the thick of things. The core series, the one with the guy building up his territory, that's just 'Isekai Cheat Kaitakuki' on its own. It starts with volume 1 and goes straight up from there.
But here's where it gets a bit tangled. There's a prequel series called 'Isekai Cheat Survival Seikatsu'. It's about his life right after arriving in the other world, before the whole 'kaitakuki' nation-building thing kicks off. Some folks say you should read that first for the full backstory, but honestly, jumping into the main series at volume 1 works just fine. I did it and wasn't lost at all.
There are also some side story volumes and manga adaptations floating around, but for the core narrative, stick to the numbered light novel volumes of the main title. The official English release by J-Novel Club follows the main series order, which is probably the safest path.
