The Shionel Confederation was more than what Rui had pictured. He had initially thought that he would not be surprised or overwhelmed by what he saw since he lived near the town of Hajin, which was a popular and dense trade and Martial hub in the Kandrian Empire, but he was extremely wrong.

"This is…" Kane murmured, his voice trailing off.

"We haven't even entered the nation yet," Rui's eyes widened.

The rush to enter the Shionel Confederation was absurd. Even outside the walls of the country, there were huge swathes of people trying to enter.

Rui glanced around them, scrutinizing the many people outside. A large chunk of the population seemed like a makeshift flea market. A lot of the market seemed like small-time merchants, making a living out of a small-time business selling a small set of goods or offering some basic manual labor services.

There were also small housing units that offered stay to people who were trying to enter the Shionel Confederation, yet had failed, for one reason or the other.

Rui's eyes narrowed as he spotted a ton of Martial Squires as well, unsurprisingly enough. Their grade wasn't too low, either, based on the sense of pressure and danger that they generated in him.
