I Am Richy Rich

I Am Richy Rich is an antagonist in the Great Thief.

He is the main sponsor of the guild Star Moon Union. Just as his name suggests, he is a rich second generation son.

Personality
He is described as someone who would "die for his pride."

As the spoiled second generation son of two rich parents, he is arrogant and prideful. Since his birth, there has been little to no obstacles that blocked his path in life. All those that could be obstacles are suggested to have been solved through money. Should he not obtain what he wanted, he would enact revenge in a temper tantrum regardless the price of his revenge. His poor personality is only made worse by his illogical thinking:"'He [I Am Richy Rich] infamously set a massive bounty for the head of the 'Water Thief,' all because they had some good equipment that they did not want to sell to him.'1"He is shown to be incredibly antagonistic towards Lu Li, and is one of the reasons why Square Root 3 ultimately quits the Star Moon Union guild.

History
He first meets Lu Li in Chapter 5: A Thief That Can Cast Seal Transformation. From his first appearance in the story, he is shown as a resentful and spoiled character; at that time because of the skill book Seal Transformation. Despite Seal Transformation being a Druid skill, I am Richy Rich is unable to obtain it for his own use because it was reserved for Lu Li, as a result, the first sprouts of resentment towards Lu Li are planted. In fact, the novel emphasizes this by saying: "'If that kind of [illogical] circumstance (referring to quote 1) caused such an event, then what would happen now that there was an actual reason for resentment?'"Clearly, the answer to this rhetorical question is: as much as I Am Richy Rich is illogical. Because of his resentment Lu Li worries about the backlash after receiving Seal Transformation. However, I Am Richy Rich is "dumb" and with Square Root 3 acting as a counter, I Am Richy Rich is unable to retaliate at this point in time.

In Chapter 7: The First Pot of Gold, I Am Richy Rich is nasty as usual as he comments when Drinking Alone calls Lu Li a master for being able to gather two bronze equipments and a Frost Nova Skill Book when most people couldn't even get one bronze equipment, let alone a skill like Frost Nova. He comments:"'I Am Richy Rich jumped out and sneered: 'You inexperienced imbecile, you see his level and you call him a master? I don't know what kind of luck he had to get this kind of item, but as a member of the union he didn't even do what he was supposed to. He secretly tried to sell these items...'"This time, even Lu Li couldn't hold in his anger and retaliates discretely by putting the facts straight. With the mention of his special contract with Star Moon Union, I Am Richy Rich shuts up, and "afraid that Lu Li might remember the boastful words that he said before." Through this incident, the antagonism between Lu Li and I Am Richy Rich only grew.
