Iron armor is difficult to handle but they is relatively cheap, due to the country’s military having a good trading partner. It is not the same story for regular people, however. For them, iron is an expensive and valuable resource. Every soldier is given iron equipment at the bare minimum. When Balin became a commander, he asked to be stationed in Bern since it is his home. With the presence of a person who made it to the high command chain of the Kingdom, it sure boosts the villages morale greatly. Quite a few people gave up on farming and enlisted into the military to station in the village as well, but very few ever make it out of this outer region. For Commander Balin, fighting to protect his homeland from the hands of Demons is his dream, and he is a determined fellow. By the way, Miu-san’s husband is Commander Balin. There are many soldiers here who stare at their interaction with jealousy. Their daughter is not here of course, but their son is here, being trained to protect the village. In comparison, Miu’s chest is much larger than Dina’s. It wasn’t a joke when I said that Dina and Risha were among the top beauties in the village, but Miu’s chest simply dominates the competition. If Balin wasn’t a commander, he would’ve already been killed multiple times over by the sheer envy emitting from the men.
