Chapter 55 – This is the Beginning

The fortress city Babylon was divided into 3 districts.

The military district was located in the upper half of the circle-shaped city. This was where Roxy's army was stationed at. Apparently, there were also hired mercenaries among them.

'Mercenary' referred to those that were stronger than regular warriors. Most of them were born from Holy Knight families, but never acquired the required Holy skill to bee a Holy Knight.

Most, if not all of these men held some resentment toward the Holy Knights. Then why did these people even get hired? Of course, it's because when it came to Gallia, they'll need all the help they can muster.

If you can fight, then such obstacles will be overlooked. That was the way of the fortress city Babylon.

That said, if you were strong, even if you were just a regular warrior, you would be allowed to go here. Even if you had a bad attitude, nobody would plain if you can kill monsters. You would still be rewarded accordingly.

About Roxy, I wonder if she'd be fine with it…she had that strong sense of righteousness in her after all.

As for me, I'll be just fine. If anything, it's a perfect place for me.

Even if one had a skill that was deemed a heresy to God–like Gluttony skill, which allows the user to consume soul of its victim, he/she will still be tolerated. To the extent that as long as their presence here was beneficial for the fortress city, their existence would be permitted.

That's exactly why I planned to go here. I had to, in preparation for the ing future.

Well, if I had to say so myself, the fortress city Babylon was actually quite large. About the same size as the capital, I guess?

There were lots of soldiers and mercenaries, and there were also a lot of warriors gathering here. So this was the so-called frontline. I could feel a sense of oppression that was quite different from the capital. Somehow, I wonder if I'll meet those roughnecks again?

After passing through the gate, I walked along the main road where the general areas were spread on its left and right. At the end of main road was the military district.

In general, the mercial district was in the east, while the residential district was in the west. If you wanted to find an inn, that would be in the residential district. To summarize,

・Military district (South): Where the holy knights and soldiers from the kingdom were stationed. Also, local mercenaries can be hired here.

・一General Area (North): This is where merchants and females who wanted to make a quick fortune gathered.

→mercial District (East): restaurants, weapon shops, taverns, there were plenty of shops here just like at the capital.

→Residential District (West): It's mostly consisted of high class inns. Mostly because the warriors here earn more money than in other places.

You can't enter the military district at the moment. See, there are those uncles with scary face standing at the gate. Apparently Roxy had already gone inside.
