I never meant to enter the dungeon. Now it keeps pulling me back. The world didn’t end. It just became… deeper. When our world merged with another dimension, something ancient settled beneath the surface. A vast labyrinth of mana, monsters, and forgotten realms now exists inside the Earth itself. Dungeons opened. Systems were created. Classes were assigned. The brave become Hunters. The strong become famous. The smart try to stay away. I’m definitely among the latter. I’m short, unsporty, almost blind without my glasses, and I believe people who want to enter dungeons are at least a little unhinged. I like monsters best when they’re theoretical. Preferably illustrated. From a safe distance. Unfortunately, my passive skill opens portals. Randomly. Uncontrollably. Always at the worst possible moment. That’s how I end up face-to-face with a goblin – no weapon, no plan – doing the only thing I’m actually good at. I negotiate. With a lollipop. That decision changes everything. Instead of becoming a warrior, I’m assigned a class no one prepared me for. A Merchant. A hidden class built not on strength or speed, but on leverage, insight, and choice. In a system designed for combat, I level through bargains. While Hunters train, grind, and fight their way down the labyrinth, I’m dragged into it against my will – again and again – forced to grow in a world that was never meant for someone like me. Snake king. Beastmen. Powerful beings ruling the deeper levels of the labyrinth. They’re dangerous, intelligent… and strangely interested in the human woman who doesn’t attack, but makes offers. While I’m repeatedly dragged into the dungeon against my will, I do everything I can to keep my ability secret. Because the Hunter Association and the Guilds must never find out that someone exists who can open portals. One wrong word – and I wouldn’t be a person anymore. I’d be a resource. ----- Merchantress is a system-based dungeon fantasy web novel with a stronh female protagonist, featuring: - an unwilling dungeon traveler with a hidden Merchant class - a weak-to-strong progression with negotiation instead of violence - dangerously attractive beastmen with slow-burn reverse harem elements woven into survival and power dynamics - and what happens when, in a world built for fighters, you choose to talk I never wanted to be part of the dungeon.

Sophie Wexler transmigrated into a novel about The Galaxy, becoming the vicious, F-rank Healer-class cannon fodder. The original owner constantly caused trouble and made things difficult for the female lead, earning her the hatred of the entire internet. Upon transmigrating and seeing that everything had been ruined by the original owner, Sophie's only thought was: "What kind of nightmare start is this?!" To escape the original owner's fate, Sophie Wexler worked diligently, conducted herself conscientiously, stayed away from the male and female leads, compensated the soldiers harmed by the original owner, and strove to be a model citizen of The Galaxy, absolutely refusing to be the cannon fodder 'offed' by the Imperial Marshal! Broke and powerless, Sophie also had to support a man who'd been innocently dragged into the original owner's mess. She had no choice but to hustle. She started live streaming, became a masked singer, and held concerts. At first, netizens were scornful: 【Tsk, how good can she possibly sound?】 Later, the netizens were forced to eat their words. 【Damn, that's so good I'm on my knees!】 【What the hell, the violent episode of my Disorder Period has actually been soothed?!】 【The toxins in my Spiritual Sea have actually been eliminated!】 Her live streams went viral, the masked singer became a huge sensation, and tickets for her concerts were snapped up across The Galaxy. Sophie was content, thinking, "This time, I must have finally escaped the original owner's fate, right?" But what do you know, the man I've been doting on and supporting is actually the Imperial Marshal?! --- One day, Yancey Forrest came home to find that the boisterous person who was always claiming to be good to him was gone. His eyes darkened. Provoke me and then think you can leave? After catching her, Yancey traced his fingertips along Sophie's neck, smiling gently. "Why run?" Sophie trembled. "You... you're the Imperial Marshal?" His identity exposed, Yancey Forrest took her hand and slowly placed it on his own neck ring. "You know I won't kill you, don't you?"
