Spoiler for Synopsis:

7 year old girl is dying in the slums when she suddenly remembered her past life as a 38 year old man in Japan
The girl, Riko, then tried her hardest to survive in the harsh environment that is the slums of Astoria Kingdom's Capital

Spoiler for FAQ:

1. Is the MC OP?
No

2. Is this a harem?
No

3. Is there snusnu in this novel?
Not yet

Probably not gonna be yuri so that's good

This is unlike what I used to read
The story is mostly just Riko and her friends trying to survive in the slums
But somehow it's so good that I binged it to the end

The title sounds rather RPG like but instead of rapid rise to power due to cheats, sounds more slow paced from what you're saying. Genuine hard mode?

[wuhugm]

^Yea, no real cheat here
MC is talented in magic, but there are people on her level

And MC has Appraisal (Heavenly Eye) to see other stats, but she can't see her own (which is rare)

Also rather than being the center of the world (in other novels, important events of the world always involve the MC), MC really feels like just a kid in the slums

Is there any greater story so far, even in the background?
Or is it like the MC's daily survival life story?

[wuhugm]

^There are many large scale events going on in the background
But the MC's connection to those is thin at this moment, which is her older friends are high ranking adventurer whom dealing with those events

For example, she rescued 2 kids who are involved with underworld bosses, but only beat 1 expert warrior sent by them
The bosses were captured by the country in an unrelated event
