The defensive city of Babylon is divided into three sections.

A military district that occupies the northern half of a circular shaped city. An army led by Roxy will be stationed here. They also say there are mercenaries hired here just because they make good money.

Mercenaries refer to those who are good at combat among the samurai. Most are former saints or those born in the line of saints but not born with holy skills.

Therefore, few have some resentment for the status of the Holy Knight of the King's Capital. Why hire such people? That's because it's a situation where you also want to borrow a cat's hand in a demonic crusade coming from Gallia.

If you can fight, even if it's somewhat difficult, you'll see a lot. That is the defensive city of Babylon.

Even if you are a samurai samurai but strong, you are allowed here. If only you could defeat the demons, I wouldn't complain about bad bareback. Pay well.

Well, Roxy would be fine... but her straightness makes me worried.

I have no problem with that. It's a great place for me to be strong.

The heretical power abandoned by God - using his bulimic skills, he would be acquiesced here even if he ate the souls of his enemies. As long as it continues to be beneficial to the defensive city of Babylon, my presence is forgiven.

That's why we're going further up here. We should finish what we can do for the day to come.

Well, leave me alone, the defensive city of Babylon is quite big. Is it as good as Wang Du?

A place where many armies, mercenaries and even drifter samurai gather. Only on the front lines of the battle, I feel a completely different sense of oppression than Wang Du. Somehow, I wonder if the desolates will meet together.

It is the General District that passes through the main entrance and stretches to the left and right of the boulevard you are now walking on. There is a military zone ahead.

The general district has become a commercial district to the east and a residential district to the west. If you want to take the inn, go to the neighborhood.

To sum it up,

-Military Zone (South): Holy knights from the Wang capital, military personnel stationed. Also mercenaries hired locally.

· General District (North): A collection of merchants, samurai, etc. who dream of grabbing a thousand gold.

Commercial District (East): Unbeatable stores such as martial arts stores, restaurants, liquor stores, etc. are disturbed by Wang Du.

Residential area (west): Most of them have become luxury accommodation. Because the samurai make better money than the rest of the world.

is divided into The military district can't let the average person in. Look, my scary-faced uncles on the other side are staring at me in front of the gate. Apparently, Roxy's gone that way.

Well, shall I move on to the neighborhood and make sure I have a place to stay?

Every inn is made of luxury. Let's go into one of those houses to try it out.

When I went inside, a clean man dressed in bissi and black smiled and approached me. Looks like an employee of this inn.

"Welcome, are you staying?

"Yes."

It doesn't break my smile at all even though I'm wearing a mask. I see, is this about everyday tea meal in defensive cities?

"Looking at this mask doesn't seem like anything"

"Right, that's a recognition inhibition mask, isn't it? There are a lot of people here who want to hide their identity, so it's no big deal."

The answer came back the way I thought. As many as there used to be those who were holy knights in the king's capital. By and large, some of those people were banished after major problems in the King's Capital.

They wouldn't be at work if they were as surprised as I am.

"How much will a night here be?

"Yes, we have five gold coins a night with a bath and three meals"

"What!?

I'm surprised it's too high and my jaw is about to come off. Five gold coins is a good place to go.

On the same level as here, one gold coin would suffice to stay in Wang Du. In other words, the price of a defensive city is five times that of a king's capital.

The employee tells me he's still upset.

"Guests are apparently the first samurai to come to Babylon. Most people will be surprised that way. I don't know, there are denser lodgings where you can stay relatively cheaper where you've gone west than this inn. Why don't you go over there?

"I appreciate that. But why would you do that?

"What, it's easy. Even if you can't stay with us right now because of the money issue, if you make a solid buck from the monster crusade coming from Gallia, it all feels like here and elsewhere. It's a carefree treat. Stay then."

"I see..."

Pretty good at it.

Are you trying to connect to me in the future without paying me in advance because I'm a guest who won't stay? That's annoying...... looks like the people here have a different air than Wang Du.

"Thank you, Professor. Sooner or later."

"Yeah, I'll be waiting for you"

To an employee who bows his head deeply, I want to thank him for where he told me to go.

As I walk, the town starts to change gradually. The view shifts from a luxury inn made of brand new red bricks to an old white brick.

Probably was white at the time it was built. Looks like it went a little dark by the weather.

It costs a lot of money to carry supplies into the vicinity of the Gallia border, even as it is rebuilt. I guess an inn that doesn't have the funds to be renovated at all times can't maintain its appearance.

The further you go in the back, the lower the rank of the Inn? That can be judged by appearance.

The funds in my hand have been pretty scattered thanks to Mine. All I have now are four gold coins and thirty silver coins... you're pretty much gone.

There should have been more than fifty gold coins for the time being. There's more to squandering. To my mind, it felt exactly like a gold coin had feathers and flew off on its own. Terrible...... we have to be careful in the future!

While I was thinking about that, I came to a place where an inn made of cracked bricks stood side by side.

Well, I wonder which inn is better. They all look the same.

"Maybe you! Looking for a place to stay?

Turn to the voice of a suddenly energetic woman. She was a woman who seemed to be about one turn older than me.

Laughing as luxuriously as a man, he approaches me.

"Yes..."

"I knew it. So what do you say? Stop at my inn. I'll keep it cheap."

"How much is it?

"Fifty silver coins!

Uh-huh, if you think the price is five times higher, it's not bad. If the funds keep crusading demons, they'll be solved soon, and there's no such thing as taking money away from me as Mine.

Besides, I like the character of this damsel who broke bamboo.

"Okay. Please."

"Well, don't look at my inn, do you want a summary?

"It's no problem. Instead, make it an immediate meal."

I say as I look at the ingredients she holds in both hands. They're all fresh.

This was one of the deciding factors. If you can stand for ingredients, there's no way you're a bad cook.

"Okay, I get it. Then follow me."

"I'll have half."

"You know what, I'm sorry. But I'm not offering you a discount."

"I know, I just want to get to dinner soon."

"Ha, ha, ha, ha. Then I'll have to make more today than on my arm."

I'm really looking forward to this. I can't wait for the belly bug, and it's about to ring.

Or it rang.

Guuuuuuuuu......

"Oh, my belly bug."

"What, you were so hungry? Do you want to eat this bread?

"Are you sure?"

"I'll take the money later for a different fee."

You're neat. I have no reason to say no, and I will take it.

Warm... baked bread. The taste of sweet wheat spreads when carried to the mouth. Somehow, the fatigue so far seems to slip out quietly.

"It's delicious. I've never had bread like this before."

"I'm glad you like it. This bread is made by my sister and her wife. You can eat while you're staying at our place. And so much more."

"This is fascinating."

"Because we can't do it like a luxury inn. We have to fight inside. Come on, we're here. This is my inn!

Whoa, that was the look I expected. Cracked bricks, loose signs. Years of weathering did not make me want to stay in flattery.

But that's just the outside.

I'm excited to step inside the inn. 'Cause one bread makes me feel this way.
