Chapter 52: The Nightmare Cult Makes a Move, and They're After Someone

Ada and Ben had already anticipated Luca's refusal.

After all, if Luca hadn't been swayed by Celephais and The World Guild, why would he be interested in joining their relatively smaller Snowfall Guild?

After a moment of thought, Luca spoke up, "I'm not planning to join any guild for now, but we can still collaborate or trade. I have a lot of gear, and future items I get can be sold to you in bulk. However, the price will be about 30% higher than the market rate. Think about it."

Luca knew he would need to buy many resources soon, so partnering with a well-funded but not overly aggressive guild like Snowfall seemed like a good fit.

Asking for 30% above market value was completely normal at the start of the game. 

Especially since Luca was offering gear that was a tier higher than what most players could access.

These items might not mean much to casual players, but to professional players, they were invaluable for accelerating their progress.
