Good, and ...... yeah, it's clean."

In the corner of the city centered around the "Giant Tower," a girl finishes sweeping and cleaning the front of a store.

　She - Silica - carries the trash can to the back of the store and places it in the designated position.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The system was set up so that a garbage collector would come by every other day to collect the contents of the garbage cans.

　After she finishes cleaning the store, she goes inside to wash her hands and get ready for work.

I've got a new girl coming in today, and I don't want to leave my dirty clothes on, so I've got to get dressed.

　Silica washes her dirty hands, returns to her private room, removes her soiled cleaning clothes, and changes into something clean and laundered.

　She is the girl who was rescued by the Mohicans near the Giant Tower.

　She and her parents were peddlers, traveling back and forth between the human kingdoms.

　On the way, they were attacked by monsters and her parents died.

　Silica was lucky to survive, but it was difficult for the human girl to survive on her own, and she was reduced to a slave.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After some twists and turns, she was bought as a slave by the elves, who made her walk through the virgin forest as a leader and bait for the monsters.

　However, on the way, the elves were attacked by monsters, and her parents and the people around her died. She was frightened that she too would be eaten, but the monsters ignored her and disappeared into the forest.

　Later, when she left the forest with the help of the Mohicans, her ownership was transferred to a racial (human) merchant.

　While she thought she would live and die as a slave, a race (human) woman who calls herself the "Witch of the Giant Tower" has fallen to the Elven Queen State.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The "Witch of the Giant Tower" made the Elven Queen recognize the "absolute independence of the human race" and declared it as an official law in the country, prohibiting the enslavement of the human race.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thanks to this, the slaves held by the merchants who were doing business near the entrance to the primeval forest - Silica herself - were caught by this law, and were taken in by the "Giant Tower.

　Thereafter, former human slaves were gathered and the population grew at an accelerating rate.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

In the beginning, the area around the "Giant Tower" was cleared and cleared of trees for around 100 meters, but ...... now it is several kilometers away. The area was developed over a distance of 1.5 kilometers.

　Houses, fields, wells, and stores are being built one after another.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The main attraction is an orphanage and school.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Under the direction of the "Witch of the Tower," young children are sent to school.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　At the school, children were gathered together, somewhat forcibly, to learn to read, write, calculate, exercise, and cultivate themselves.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The orphanage was managed and the children were cared for by a former slave woman.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The school teachers were fairy maids.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Silica, at her age, could have attended the school. ......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Huh,...... I didn't think that because I can read, write, calculate, and be polite, I couldn't enroll because it would be pointless to enter now,......."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　While changing clothes, I remember and let out a sigh.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Silica, being the daughter of a former peddler, had a good foundation in reading, writing, math, and etiquette.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Schools exist to teach these minimum basics.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is meaningless for those who have already mastered them to attend.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Rather, the "Giant Tower" side wanted Silica, a former peddler's daughter, to do something else.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That is - the operation of a store.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I never thought I would be the one to make my fathers' dreams come true,.......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A young girl utters a mature line with a sigh as she pulls on the sleeves of a simple one-piece dress.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　For a race (human) peddler, owning a store is a typical dream.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Compared to peddlers who go from place to place, it is overwhelmingly less dangerous, and they can lead a stable life, which is the reason for its popularity.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, it is not easy to set up a store.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The reason is that it requires a huge amount of money.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Therefore, the only way is for parents and children to save money from generation to generation, or to make a fortune as an adventurer, or to get lucky and find a patron.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In a sense, Silica was lucky enough to find a patron, the "Witch of the Giant Tower," and set up store.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So why did "The Gigantic Tower" entrust Silica with one of its stores?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The "Beast Race Massacre" - it is not called so in the "City of Titans" but is called the "Race (Human) Hostage Rescue Incident.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This "Human Hostage Rescue Incident" caused the population of the area around the "Giant Tower" to exceed 10,000 people.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

There was enough land, buildings, and infrastructure to accommodate the population with the help of fairy maids and dragons working for the "Giant Tower Witch," but not enough people with ...... special skills.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The most important thing to remember is that the people who are in the area are not the only ones who have the experience of being a tradesman, and Silica, the daughter of a former peddler, has a certain level of experience as a tradesman.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(I had appealed to the fairy maid to get at least one more person ...... because it would be too much work for just one person, but she only had ...... men to help me. (There weren't any.)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Adult men with merchant experience were made to own and operate stores as well as silicas.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As a result, only men were available to take charge of assistance.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Silica shivered reflexively.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She was bought as a slave by an elven male and forced to walk through the virgin forest as a herder and bait for the monsters.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Later, the elf species was eaten from the head by the monster ...... "Snake Hellhound" and rescued by the Mohicans.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He was sold off to a racial trader, but was treated with care.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thanks to the Mohawks and the race merchants, I am not that phobic about men, but as a silica, I am still more comfortable with women than men.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　To be honest, Silica did not have the guts to live under the same roof with a complete stranger.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, it is physically demanding for a girl to manage a store by herself.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So she pleaded with the fairy maids for more female employees, but most of them were former slaves or mere villagers, and few of them had mastered the calculations, etiquette, reading, and writing necessary for business.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Even if they were, they were prioritized for other important facilities.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(At this point, it would be better for me to be the main worker, assisting and teaching women who have a good memory of things. (At first, the workload on me will be heavy, but once she grows up, it will be a lot easier. ......)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The lack of so many appropriate personnel has also led me to think about such things.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But the heavens had not abandoned Silica.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The fairy maid tells us that she has found someone who meets Silica's request.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It seems that she is a girl whose parents were peddlers and were killed by a monster, just like her.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She can read, write, calculate, and behave with courtesy, so there is no need for her to attend school, and she herself is hoping to be involved in the business.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When Silica received this call, she was moved to the level of having been saved by the Mohicans.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

She said, "Now I don't have to do everything by myself anymore, like picking up the goods, putting them out, cleaning, preparing for the opening, serving customers, bookkeeping, reporting, processing the purchase of goods, etc.!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After hearing the report from the fairy maid, she goes crazy in her room upstairs.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Her savior, a girl, was to visit the store today.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Therefore, she closed the store, carefully cleaned the surroundings, and put on her cleanest clothes sleeves in an attempt to make a good impression.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Excuse me."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

!　They're here!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As Silica finishes her preparations, she hears voices coming from the front of the store on the first floor.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She descended the stairs, pausing at the door to fix her hair, breathe, and check her clothes for disorder.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When she is sure there are no problems, she opens the door.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In front of her stands a beautiful girl who shares her struggles with Silica.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Nice to meet you, I'm Mikie, I'll be working here from today.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She had a somewhat flirtatious smile, but a beautiful girl with good looks as good as a fairy maid stood before her.
