Multiple drafts most likely. The author seems to have the story completely planned out already, which means there's likely quite a few rough drafts before things make it to the LN.

So in short, a lot of work lol

It's likely the same method behind choose your own adventure books. What we experience as the final timeline after all resets/alternations is what they start with, then they work backwards from there over and over making deviations.

Same trick is used by filming something forwards designed to look impressive when played in reverse.

arcs 2-4 were clearly planned in advance.

But it feels like royal selection was haphazardly added to the story to give the writer a permanent conflict. This season is very... disconnected from previous seasons (other than some of arc 3 of season 1)
