Raised the Villainous Daughter and Ran Away

35. France Corporation

A dawn when the day has not yet begun. When I opened the window, the sun hadn’t risen yet, so cold air came in, and the characteristic dryness greeted us through the wind.

“Let’s go.”

“Yes.”

I picked up France and climbed over the window frame to get out of the duke’s residence. I asked on the way to Kazar’s house.

“Have you prepared your speech?”

“I was prepared, but… ….”

“Are you having trouble?”

“Yes.”

France purses her lips. Her hastily crafted speech and her lack of confidence are felt through her droopy shoulders. I comforted her

“Don’t worry. Everything will work out.”

“… Don’t you mind checking my speech?”

“It’s to check the princess’ ability, so I won’t interfere this time either.”

“It’s burdensome to say that.”

I can’t do everything. Sometimes she has to do things on her own. The power to make her own side, as she is now, for her example, is her word.

And in case I disappear someday, I have to develop France’s abilities.

How long did she and Frances walk on the road at dawn? Kazar’s house began to appear. In front of him was a large upper carriage drawn by two horses.

“I have arrived.”

When we arrived at Kazar’s house, she was already at the door waiting for us. I said.

“Are we not late?”

“No, I just came out.”

“Then let’s go.”

I climbed into the back of the upper carriage first and held Frances’ hand. Kazar came up as if he was used to it.

“Are you used to riding in the top wagon?”

“Yes. There were many times in the County of Seyrell to get a top wagon and ride.”

Should I say it’s like a Khazar who saves money on carriage rides? She is used to the common people’s life. Said Frances.

“Stop talking. Do it from the start.”

The coachman in front nodded her head and moved her horse. His face was obscured by a large merchant hat.

‘It’s manpower from the Dark Guild of Seldas.’

The carriage started moving. On the way, Kazar asked.

“What are you going to do now?”

“What should I do?”

“The raid plan. You’re not going to just hit and break everything, right?”

That has been decided.

“The Frida Garment Factory is probably still working.”

“Is it early in the morning?”

“Yes. Because they only sleep four hours a day.”

At the mention of 4 hours a day, Frances eyes widened and Kazar was shocked.

“No, can a person sleep only 4 hours a day?”

The so-called Napoleon sleep method. Theoretically, I could live with it. I’ve practiced it, so it’s actually possible.

“These people are being exploited to the extreme. So I only get four hours of sleep a day.”

“No, you are treated like that, so why work in a place like that? Do you have anything else to do?”

Kazar is getting angry for no reason. Frances also added.

“So. I’ve never lived or felt the life of a commoner, but I feel it’s too much. No, it’s not too high. Seriously. No guild in the empire would run it that way.”

Frances sticking out his tongue. He shook his head and let out a sad sigh. I said.

“The reason those people endure exploitation may be because they cannot find a job, or it may be because of their dreams. Because people usually remain foolish even when they are treated unreasonably.”

When I was going through the quest ‘A Talent of Thousands of Gold Facing Bad Luck’ in the game, I wondered why these people were staying here. Aren’t they stupid people, I heard a suspicion.

But that was my arrogant idea. Each of them had a dream and hope to see the future. He was enduring with only one desire to make clothes.

Others, there were people who couldn’t find a job and had no choice but to do so. The eldest son and the eldest daughter who lost their parents early and have to take care of the livelihood of the family. Even his wife, who became a widow and had to raise her children alone.

Everyone has their own circumstances, and there are reasons why they cannot escape from them. So after I knew the truth, I couldn’t say anything to them.

Ka-Zar shook her head in a foolish way.

“Even so. If I wanted to learn magic and entered as an apprentice, but I was only being exploited, I would be self-taught! I think I will go out.”

That’s a different story.

“Magic is different. Magicians are manpower that is inevitably in demand. But what about workers in the apparel industry? Substitutes are not possible unless there are special personnel. Here, the empire’s clothing store is monopolized by Frieda? It is a situation without an answer.”

Kazar and Frances nodded at my words.

“Definitely. That makes sense.”

“… You don’t have a choice.”

Playing with people’s dreams is the worst law. The act of showing only hope in front of your eyes and kicking down the ladder so that you cannot reach that hope.

Frida’s madam will get what she deserves.

As it was in the game.

At that time. The carriage stopped.

“I have arrived.”

I have arrived at the border of the empire on my way to the factory. There were rows of wagons the same size as the top wagon we had been riding. Including the one we rode, there are 9 of them. Considering the size, it should be enough.

“Princess. Signal to start.”

“… I?”

“Then I can’t do it.”

Hesitantly, Frances exclaimed loudly.

“Everyone knows the destination, right? Start right away!”

Jumping! The packed wagons started moving at once. Our wagon came to the fore.

“Everyone, get ready because it’s the beginning of the season. Princess, don’t ever get away from Kazar’s side.”

France tilted her head.

“Why? Is there anything dangerous?”

“Yes. Because there are guards.”

At the time of the quest. Quite a number of guards were waiting. Guards to command close to 100 workers. I told Kazar.

“Kazar. Take good care of the princess.”

“Are you going to fight the guards alone?”

“Yes. Because alone is enough.”

Because the power of a sword master is overwhelming. It is a level that no single guard can ever deal with.

At that time. The buildings of the factory began to be seen in the distance. I shouted at others.

“Everyone wait here!”

The carriage stopped, and we got out of the carriage.

“Let’s go.”

* * *

The shape of the factory is a large mansion made of processed wood. There are 2 guards at the entrance and 10 inside. I hid my presence and walked in front of the factory.

I heard the guards muttering.

“Oh, those bastards must be drinking right now, right?”

“I guess so.”

“Ha. Today is a day to drink after a long time, so why are you on duty?”

It was a boring conversation. While they were chatting, I quickly approached and slapped one on the uvula.

Paak! A guard who was punched in the neck out of nowhere grabbed him by the neck and collapsed. The moment the guard next to him was about to shout with round eyes. He turned his back and stretched out his fist.

Puffed up. The guard’s chin turned to his fist as he silently passed by, raising his pupils and falling down.

“Come now.”

Kazar and Frances sneaked up.

“Let’s go in.”

They swallowed heavily and nodded.

Kikik. Factory opened. I knew it. Even though it is early in the morning, the work is still going on. I lifted the scabbard that was at my waist.

“I’ll take care of the wandering guards and come back.”

“Okay.”

I smiled and moved right away. Perhaps because I was hiding my presence, the workers who were concentrating on their work didn’t notice my presence at all.

I started subduing the wandering guards one by one. Secretly slashing down the top of the head with a scabbard or striking the nape of the neck with the blade of one’s hand. The guards were helpless.

I think I caught about five people like that. The guards noticed something was strange.

“Hey, where are the other kids?”

“I don’t know?”

“Where are these bastards going to play around?”

The guard, who seemed to be the captain, put his hand on his waist.

“Hey! Let’s all gather together!”

The scattered guards gathered in one place. Now is a good time to deal with it. I naturally walked to where they were gathering.

“What, where are the four of you?”

“I don’t know.”

“Hmm? But who are you?”

The guards all look at me in unison.

“Intruder.”

Paak! With the scabbard in his hand, he slashed the guard’s jaw. His head turned and he fell helplessly.

“What, what!”

“What is it, an intruder?”

I put all my concentration into the senses. Then the sound disappeared and the movements of the others seemed slow.

He roamed freely among them, hitting the scruff of the neck and chin. The guards slammed their faces into the ground, unaware of who they were dealing with.

The workers looked at me with their mouths wide open. Leaving the work they were concentrating on, everyone could not speak. I don’t understand the current situation. I shouted out loud.

“Kazar!”

At my cry, the factory’s large arched front door opened. The light of dawn came bright in the dull atmosphere and the dark workshop.

And the sound of shoes resonating in the silence of the factory. Frances was walking with her head stiff. Like a noble savior born at dawn.

It was a perfect production.

“I have come to rescue you from this exploitation, and at the same time I have come to employ you.”

Workers began to listen to Frances voice echoing from the center.

“I am going to do a clothing business. But this Frida clothing is monopolized by this Frida Empire.”

Workers gradually rise from their seats and gather one by one.

“I want to open a clothing store that can beat Frida. To do that, you are needed. Won’t you come with me Unlike Frieda, I will treat you fairly. The work environment will be much better.”

France continued by saying and.

“The largest apparel store in the empire will change. To France Corporation.”

Finally, the France Corporation was recognized. I always said it was a dirty name. In fact, I must have liked it.

“How about you, would you like to come with me?”

At that time. One person broke through the crowd of workers and asked a question.

“How can I believe that you guys will be different from here? We see you for the first time today. To just believe what they say and drop everything and participate? A contradiction!”

It’s a sharp but obvious question. How will Frances react?

“It is natural for the upper management to give fair treatment to hard-working workers. I just keep it If you don’t believe me, I can’t help it. Continue living in this field of exploitation.”

The workers started to stir. Positive public opinion and negative public opinion clashed with each other. Then then A boy came forward.

It was Andrea, a talent of a thousand gold who faced misfortune.

“I will go. Instead, may I ask you a favor?”

“What is it?”

“I want to make the clothes I want to make.”

Fishik. Frances laughed and nodded his head.

“That is natural. It is something that should never be done that harms the autonomy of creators.”

Andrea’s eyes widened. She walked towards us with eyes that looked like they would cry at any moment. Then the workers started to riot even more.

The best producers who had been directing them turned their steps. Of course, I can’t help but be agitated.

Andrea told the workers.

“I will trust this person. Because he respects creators.”

Workers hesitate at Andrea’s words. Frances opened her mouth again, thinking it was time.

“Those who will follow, follow me. Those who do not believe in me may remain here. But keep this one thing in mind. The fact that the future won’t change unless you do something.”

Poof. Frances said that and turned her back. He turned his back on me and Kazar, and Andrea quietly followed.

France whispered.

“Are you really okay like this?”

“It’s okay.”

“How was your speech?”

“Uh… It just was.”

“… I see.”

Sulking Frances. I comforted her

“But it’s okay because I persuaded Andrea.”

At that time. Workers shouted from behind.

“I will go!”

“I’m coming too!”

“I don’t want to work in a f*cking factory like this anymore!”

Workers stepping out vigorously, huffing and puffing. Frances smiled and told them.

“Good idea. With that courageous choice, your future will be different.”

Succeeded.

All that remains is to show the results to Seldas and the Duke.

Now, it’s time to let the world know about the France Corporation.
