On his first day as a Saniwa, Sano Akihiko regretted it.
He'd thought a Saniwa's job was to lead powerful swords through different eras, send the restless dead back to the earth, and heroically protect the land
But in reality, he was living in a tiny wooden hut with no furniture, eating cabbage and sweet potatoes he'd just dug up, washing himself in a river because there was no bathroom, and sleeping on the floor of a candlelit room...
After a few days, he regretted it even more.
Protecting history and saving the world was all well and good, but what he really wanted to know was how to earn koban.
All the daily necessities and furniture in the citadel had to be bought with koban, and his only income came from selling crops he couldn't eat. Under those circumstances, he taught himself how to build a cooking stove, set traps, and make wooden flowers...
As for the income from sorties and expeditions that Konnosuke had mentioned, he hadn't seen a single coin.
From the very first day, every sortie and expedition had ended in failure. Akihiko hadn't earned a single penny, and had to pay for repair materials on top of that...
At first, Akihiko assumed the swords lacked experience and didn't worry about it. But even after they all reached max level, they still couldn't get past the first map. Finally, he couldn't take it anymore and joined a sortie himself.
And then, in the Taisho era, he saw an unkillable demon. In the Sengoku era, he discovered a ninja who could knead the moon with his bare hands
...N-no problem. We can still go on expeditions!
According to Konnosuke, expeditions are very safe... Wait, why is that person's head on fire?!
P.S. Farming in the early part, quick transmigration in the later part.
