2LT Luna:"Alright men, times ticking let's go!"

Apparently the gate to the Commoner District is still 600 meters about from their current position, Foxhound Squad move silently and tactically, observing the environment, their eyes and ears senses are incredibly sharp as expected from an elite unit, suddenly 2LT Luna raise his left hand signaling them stop and he also do other gesture signaling them to crouch down.

2LT:"Patrol in 1 O Clock Distance 30 meters, 5 tangos, stay down and don't do anything stupid"

He whispered in his microphone that imbedded in his military headset.

5 Red Dragon Empire with their red long sleeves shirts, black long pants and leather boots soldiers and they are equiped with an leather armors and iron swords currently and they carrying a torch to see in the dark while the members of Foxhound Squad currently using their Enhanced Night Vision Goggles stalking them until they leave.

2LT Luna:"Area clear, let's get going!"

Foxhound Squad continue approaching the gate of the Commoner District and when they arrived there's a lots of sentry's guarding the wall specially the gate.

MSG Rizal:"What do we do now sir?"

Master Sergeant Rizal asked as he approached 2nd Lieutenant Antonio Luna.

2LT Luna:"We have 3 options, first we sneak it and kill all the guards within our way by using our suppressed weapons , second is to use our infiltration clothes but I don't if it works but it's the safest bet, then the third we call an airstrike strike towards the gate and we use the confusion to enter the Commoner District"

MSG Rizal:"Let's go for the second choice because if we sneak in and kill the guards there's a possibility that another guard may spotted their bodies causing all the soldier to be high alert, the third is that it can cause to tightening the entire security of all the districts making the infiltration of the other squads hard"

2LT Luna:"Good reasoning...Second then"

Foxhound remove their tactical equipment and their uniforms changing to the local clothes, 2LT Luna wearing medieval style white shirt, brown long pants and a leather boots, after wearing it they continue walking towards the gate until they reach it.

Guard:"State your business and why are you still outside during night time?"

Said the guard suspiciously, he noticed that the this people have a black hair, black eyes and have a tan skin which is unusual to see within the Red Dragon Empire.

2LT Luna:"We are currently looking for a job sir guard and during our journey we get lost because we are new to this place that's why we arrived at night time"

2LT Antonio Luna said it without a hint of nervousness within his voice making it believable coverup excuse.

Guard:"Okay whatever but next time don't get lost 10 Silver coins per person"

2LT Luna:"Here sir"

2LT Luna give him a 1 Gold Coin and the guard give him the change which is 30 Silver Coin because they are seven of them, he noticed that the entry fee of the capital are expensive compared to the Adventure Town which is 5 Silver Coins, after that they finally gotten inside the Commoner District and to his surprise the living conditions in this district are pretty decent for a person who wants to live a normal life, now their next task is to find a inn but they cant find one because....all of them can't read the signs of the buildings, yes the language are English expect for some words that can't be understand but their written system are completely different compared to the modern world.

2LT Luna:"I wish the higher ups hire a tour guide!"

2LT Luna though to himself as he sigh deeply to vent out is frustration, so he ask the people nearby for a inn to stay in then hours later they finally found one and enter it but they didn't know that it was the most expensive inn in the Commoner District.

Receptionist:"Welcome to Waterfall Inn! would you like to stay in our inn dear sir?"

2LT Luna:"Yes please and I want the biggest room for seven of us"

Receptionist:"That you be 20 Gold Coins sir and additional 1 Gold Coin per person for their breakfast and dinner"

2LT Luna:"Here"

2LT Luna give 27 Gold Coin to the receptionist, each squad have a 100 Gold Coins during this mission and this money gotten or let's just say stolen during the one sided massacre of the Red Dragon Empire that ignored the warning written in the sign and leading them trespassing the restricted area that cost their life's.

Receptionist:"Alright please follow me sir"

2LT Luna and the others follow the receptionist lady to their room and went they go inside the room it was well furnished from table came of high quality wood to the incredibly soft mattress and pillow.

Receptionist:"Enjoy your stay!"

Receptionist said that and left leave the Foxhound Squad, then next day they start gathering information about the Commoner District from the famous place to the person who rule the Commoner District, while there are gathering information a group of shadow figures continues following them.
