Reincarnation Monarch

Four days south of Thebe, a line of Gaius had arrived in the capital city of Alexandra.

"It's just the capital and it's vibrant."

Gaius said as he was impressed as he looked around at the bazaar taking place in the center of Alexandra, in the square near the Royal Palace.

"Yeah. It's funny how many different stores there are."

Abel also said with a slight and intriguing look around.

Bazaar had a tent about two meters (Merkle) apart from each other, and the neighboring shops were stuffed.

"Is there going to be two or three hundred houses?

Gaius asked Rodemul beside him.

"Yes, that's about it."

"Right. And no matter how much the whole country is declining, it just doesn't seem the same as the capital."

"No, boy, that's not true"

"Huh? No?

"Yes, because only the bazaar in this square is vibrant"

"Really?

"Yes, the stores that were supposed to be dotted all over the city in the first place were unable to set up stores because of the recession, folding them one after the other. That's why we're all gathered in this square, tenting and doing business. So it is not an exaggeration that this bazaar is the symbol of the decline of the Kingdom of Dallas."

"Does that mean there are no shops all over the city of Alexandra?

"No, it doesn't mean there isn't any at all. Compared to other countries, however, it is considerably less. More empty houses dotted all over the city. How much is it compared to Tabe..."

"And Tabe? Well, I didn't realize that. So did the villages along the street?

"No, the countryside is better yet. When people get poorer, they start refraining from luxuries, but that doesn't mean they don't buy food. So the countryside of the agriculture-centric economy is still better. And the countryside is basically self-sufficient on a village basis."

"I see. Urban areas react more sensitively to the decline of the country for a variety of occupations."

"Yeah, it is. I'm sure the rural people will be poorer soon, but I think they can still afford some."

"Yeah. So what about the hospital we're on our way to?

"I don't know if there's a problem with the hospital we aspire to because it's royal, but in small hospitals and such, management is getting painful. My name is also because there are probably more patients who won't be able to pay for treatment."

"Right. I see."

Within doing so, a line went through the square and plugged into the south boulevard.

Gaius looked around and discovered a tall building.

"Is that it? The Royal Central Hospital."

Carla reacted to Gaius' words.

"Come on, what do you say? It's not like there are any other buildings like that, though, so I guess there's no other way to get there."

"Yeah. Well, let's just go."

There was no opposition to Gaius' proposal, and the line went toward a highrise south of the square.
