The Hero Owes Me 47 Gold [LitRPG, The OP Hero Ruined My Life]

Oren Silt spent thirty years as a merchant. Bought low. Sold high. Never complained when adventurers tracked blood across his floor or haggled over the price of healing potions. Then the Hero walked into his shop. Trustworthy smile. Legendary sword. A handshake that cost Oren everything he owned. The sword was fake. The gold was real. And now Oren is sixteen thousand in debt, his shop seized, his family gone, and the Hero three towns away spending his money. Merchants don't chase adventurers. Merchants don't fight back. Merchants stay behind their counters and wait for the world to use them. But Oren isn't just a merchant anymore. He's Vendor #7743 with a new skill, a goblin who's died eight thousand times, and forty-seven gold worth of rage. The Hero doesn't remember his name. He will. --- What to Expect: - An NPC merchant MC who fights with contracts, information, and compound interest - LitRPG elements (stats, skills, System notifications) that matter to the plot - Found family party of NPC's that have been broken, exploited and cheated by the player hero. - Dark humor meets genuine emotional stakes. No chosen one protagonist, just a middle-aged shopkeeper who's had enough. Updates: Twice weekly!
