Summary[]
Before the Kingdom of Friedonia was established, a seventeen year old Ginger Camus arrives at his inheritance and is shocked to see that it's a place for slaves. Ginger is their owner likely because Ginger's grandfather wanted them to find good masters. Ginger was baffled as the slaves asked what they wanted Ginger to have them do. Ginger knew the treatment of slaves was terrible even in this country. Ginger can see the worry in their eyes and promises not to sell them to anyone troubling.
A few days pass and Ginger teaches them math, reading and writing. He wants them to be treated better if they're more useful. Ginger asks if Sandria wants to learn anything but Sandria mentions that her father was a merchant who was forced to sell her off to repay a debt. Ginger wants to help her find meaning in life as Sandria helps teach the others. Despite this Ginger can't find any good customers because he can't trust anyone. Sandria gets worried for him but Ginger is determined that this storm will pass. Sandria is hopeful. After the kingdom of Friedonia is established, Ginger's store is hounded by nobles.
Earlier Souma commented that they need more workers. Specifically they need people who can read and write. Souma decides to change this by changing how noble and knight houses is done by either taking part in battles or managing their lands. This wave is giving nobles the chance to go to commoners who can read and write while asking for help. Souma even thinks of abolishing the slave trade with this wave of change. Roroa mentions that she heard about a certain slave merchant.
Back at Ginger's shop, he meets with the clients one on one. They mention they want administrative work done and that they're willing to free their slavery status. Families are kept together as well along with some clients marrying their charges. Sandria and Ginger are happy that things are turning around. As Sandria and Ginger have dinner for the night, a disguised Souma and Roroa enter the establishment.
