of azure Abyss paused their actions in
disbelief they had all somehow acred
debts to the system stunned confused and
Furious they were engulfed in a
whirlwind of emotions this was all money

dispute haaha a vendetta has turned into
a financial dispute I heard their in is
entirely depleted what how does their
lack of funds concern the merchant
Emperor wait did the merchant Emperor
make their money vanish how could that

erase their funds as the tale grew more
Fantastical rumors began to spread some
claimed the merchant Emperor had Divine
abilities capable of controlling the
game others suggested he was a GM or
perhaps even cheating regardless it all
