Tales of Managing a Witch’s Domain

[Blurb]

You Dai is a die-hard fan of management games. After dying in an accident, she blinks and transmigrates into a Western fantasy world with magic.

The bad news: She's ended up deep in the Misty Forest, a place no sane person would visit. The entire forest is filled with poisonous fog and monsters.

The even worse news: This world despises witches. It has carried out multiple witch hunts and killed every last one of them.

And she is the last witch in the world, hidden away by her mother.

You Dai: ? You don't have to go to all this trouble if you want me dead again.

Management and Business System 099: [Chirp, chirp~ Host detected as highly aligned with this System's philosophy. Binding in progress... Binding successful... Loading modules... Loading complete! Host, come manage your own business district!]

You Dai: She sits bolt upright on her deathbed and shouts, "System, I'm in!"

[Hallucinatory Restaurant]

Food is iron and rice is steel. Skip a meal and you'll feel weak.

Fried chicken, burgers, and milk tea. No more messing around when you fight monsters.

Hungry adventurers feeling out of sorts, want a bite of the [Old Ba's Secret Set Meal]?

Restore your stamina and clear your body's negative effects in minutes. Isn't that a much better deal than HP and PP potions? Bring a friend now and get an extra perk!

You Dai smiles at the burping adventurers:

"Limited availability, first come, first served!"

[Hallucinatory Karaoke]

A treat for the priests in every adventuring party!

Are you tired of slow chanting and recovering too little energy? Come sing your heart out! Practice eighty or a hundred rap songs and become the next Rap Star. It's not just a dream!

Listening to the pig-like howling coming from several private rooms, and watching the priests emerge a few hours later like dehydrated fish, You Dai silently gives them a thumbs-up and decides to offer some encouraging praise:

"Okay, you're a rapper now..."

[Hallucinatory TV Drama Studio]

Hiring lots of actors! High pay (starting at 50 gold coins per hour), low risk (no one's going to steal your kidneys)! Hands-on acting and script coaching (we teach you everything and find you a job). The next star of Hallucinatory TV could be you!

[The Dominant Count's Passionate Love: His Wife Has Run Away Again]

[Reborn as the Nobles' White Moonlight]

[I'm a Palace Maid: The Old King Wants to Marry Me]

Watching these deliciously cringey short dramas on the monitor while directing, You Dai can't help sighing:

"You need an outsider to make a fool of yourself. I'm really making this trash flourish..."

--

Food shops, karaoke, inns, clothing stores, drama studios, magic academies... Gradually, You Dai's business district grows bigger and bigger. Members of all kinds of races are drawn to her territory to trade or cooperate with her.

One day, a furious grand duke orders his knights to capture You Dai, the witch remnant.

The next moment, elves, dragons, holy knights, great mages, goblins, dwarves, and undead surround the group in layer upon layer.

Standing outside the encirclement, You Dai blinks innocently and pointedly looks at the huge cauldron that has appeared beside her at some point. "Think carefully before you act, Your Grace~"

"Don't glare at me. I'm just a little witch. What could I possibly be up to?"

I'm only going to stew you into pesticide to use on my flowers (￣▽￣)~*
