After you complete first level, you should get talk with a guard mentioning they need help with town guards or something. Only viable option seems to be to check with the armor craftsman and see if they can provide better weapons. At that point you can go to the arms craftsmen (guy in the right room in the armor shop) to start this set of events.
Each time you get through a level there will be similar thing with town guards need better weapons, go talk to that guy to proceed with events. If you have already done all the levels you should be able to just do all the events.
Do you have VS Code or other text\code editor with Find in File that you can use REXGEX to do a find all search?
Could use REGEX like: \\\\[\s\n] to search for any double \\ followed by white space or newline.
Using the Translator++ editor I found these 2 entries which may cause issue? Just single \ without any text or RPG maker lookups/code after. Didn't see anything else, but i'm not sure what to look for.
