On the outskirts of the Emperor's Alliance, merchants from Milan had spontaneously gathered, forming a sizable market.
This was what is known as the military market.
These markets were responsible on one hand for purchasing war spoils obtained by soldiers on the battlefield, such as scrap metal, circuit boards, drone wreckage, and even synthetic human's limbs. Because the soldiers were completely ignorant of the technical value, the merchants could bulk purchase them at low prices.
On the other hand, naturally, they were there to trade various alcoholic beverages, entertainment, and trinkets for the soldiers' military merit rewards.
Aske followed the three girls through the market, where merchants had set up countless small tents, with stalls and goods directly displayed at their entrances, simple and clear.
