Chapter 53 - Neonthe Mirage
Ranked 9th in the world — Neon, the Dungeon Merchant.
A figure so rare he was almost legendary: a merchant, a non-combat class, who climbed all the way to the summit known as the "Sky Beyond Sky."
He was a strange man, a person who carried many different titles at once.
—Neon is ruthless.
When it came to money, Neon was more vicious and sharp-eyed than anyone.
It was said that those who borrowed money from him often experienced horrors that would haunt even their dreams.
Thus, among veteran players, a secret but widespread rule existed:
No matter what, never borrow money from Neon.
Even the prices he charged inside dungeons were absurd.
An absolute dungeon extortionist.
Everything Neon sold was outrageously expensive.
Even a low-grade potion was sold at a price high enough to buy a top-grade potion in a normal village.
'The worst part was... you still had to buy it.'
No matter how expensive it was, players kept coming back to him.
