Year 1032 of the Zhang Dynasty - Outlands of Heavenly Phoenix City - North garbage dump
(Nameless kid POV)
“Food... I need to find something“ Nameless kid
Scavenging in the garbage dump has always been my daily routine for as long as I can remember.
“...This may be good enough“ Nameless kid
I take a smelly chicken from a pile of trash.
“Good“ Nameless kid
Unlike others days, today I will eat something.
“*munch* *munch*“ Nameless Kid
I eat before others can take it away from me.
“Look the ugliest found something“ tall kid
The ugliest, my skin color is different from everyone in this city and because of that I have an endless mount of nicknames.
“You were too late, I eat all of it“ Nameless kid
“Blacky, how you dare to not share?“ kid
“Ha, as if you would do it“ Nameless kid
This isn't a nice place, I don't like it but that is how it is.
...
After that I kept searching till it was dark.
“Time to go back“ Nameless kid
I have a place to sleep in one abandoned house in the village.
“...“ village people
They really don't get tired of looking at me.
“Go away, bad augury“ village woman
A stone hit my head and I stagger for a moment.
“If you want a fight, don't hide and come at me you cowards“ Nameless kid
“...“ village people
This is not the first time, they fear me and because of that almost every day they attack me.
“That's what I thought“ Nameless kid
I enter my broken house and sleep the rest of the day.
......
...
The Next day a man in good clothes came to the village.
“I am looking for a child blacksmith helper“ outside man
A blacksmith helper, a person that will have burns in every part of its body for only some food. There is no father that will give his child for that.

“I can do it“ Nameless kid
But that isn't a trouble for an only child like me.
“A burned child?“ outside man
If he wants to believe that better for me.
“I have no fear of fire“ Nameless kid
If they will give me food then fire doesn't matter.
“Very well, come with me child“ outside man
The villagers will surely be happy now.
......
...
We reached a shop in the commercial section.
“This is the Chu family's blacksmith shop“ outside man
It is a really big shop, it was bigger than anything I have seen before.
“Your job will be to always keep the fire of the furnaces on, no matter the time“ outside man
Just that?
“You understand?“ outside man
He looked at me a little bit annoyed.
“Yes!“ Nameless kid
I answered energetically.
------------------------
Year 1033 of the Zhang Dynasty - Commercial section of Heavenly Phoenix City - Chu family blacksmith shop
“Hup“ Nameless kid
The job was a little bit harder than I expected.
My bed was in the blacksmith shop so it was always hot, the firewood was far and I needed to go twice every day and, sometimes, sparks of the melted iron of the workers touched my skin.
But for the food it was worth it.
“There is it again, that black trash“ blacksmith A
“It is eating like a beast again“ blacksmith B
Even here the nicknames didn't stop increasing. But it was better to don't provoke them, they were cultivators and killing was their favorite thing to do.
“I still cant believe that Chu Tianji accepted that in here“ blacksmith A
Chu Tianji is the name of the person who brought me here, he was someone important in here.
“It is really an eyesore“ blacksmith B
...I should go keep the fire on.

Year 1036 of the Zhang Dynasty - Commercial section of Heavenly Phoenix City - Chu family blacksmith shop

“You have been sold“ Chu Tianji
One morning the same person that let me in is taking me out.
“Can I ask Why?“ Nameless kid
I don't remember doing something wrong.
“For the simple reason that someone paid some spiritual cards for you“ Chu Tianji
“Spiritual cards?!“ Nameless kid
I got a bad feeling about this.
“Who... did it?“ Nameless kid
“The alchemist institute“ Chu Tianji
There is only one reason for them to buy a commoner.
“...I understand“ Nameless kid
I want to run away, but that will be stupid. I need to look for a chance.
“The envoy of the institute is already in the door, get out“ Chu Tianji
Get out, these are his last words to me.
...
One man was outside the blacksmith shop.
“Come with me in silence“ alchemist man
I follow him in silence and because of that he gives me his back. Good, underestimate me more.
After following him far enough of the shop, I turn my body the faster I can and run...
“Disrespectful!“ alchemist man
He grabs me for my shoulder almost immediately after using his bronze aura.
“LET ME GO!!“ Nameless kid
I will die.
I cannot die.
I want to live.
“NOOOOO!!!“ Nameless kid
“What are you doing to that kid?“ old man
A old man confronts the Cultivator.
(Linjian POV)
I see a child with a strange skin walking with a man.
(Maria, is that kid sick?)
[No]
(Then why he has that color?)
[If this was my world I would say that he inherited it from his parents]
(But in this world people don't have that kind of skin color)
[That is right, he most likely has a mutation in his genes]
(Is that common?)
[It is almost impossible to happen, but it can happen]
“LET ME GO!!“ kid
“NOOOOO!!!“ kid
I grab the bronze cultivator arm that holds the kid.
“What are you doing to that kid?“ Linjian
(Nameless kid POV)
“He is Property of the alchemist institute, scram!“ alchemist man
“Help me!“ Nameless kid
I can see for his clothes that this old man is just a commoner but I am desperate.
“...Are you going to kill him?“ old man
“The alchemist institute can kill as much as it wants, now...“
...
“...“ old man
What just happened? the cultivator disappeared in the middle of the talk as if the earth had eaten him.
“Kid“ old man
“Yes!“ Nameless kid
This man is not only an old man.
“What is your name?“ man
“I don't have one“ Nameless kid
Only kids with parents have one.
“...Do you have a place to go back?“ man
“...No“ kid
Why is he asking that?
“Do you want to come with me?“ man
!!!
“Seriously?“ kid
“Yes, do you want to?“ man
“Of course I want to!“ kid
“Then, you will need a name“ man
A name...
“With the power bestowed to me from of the goddesses of life and peace, I name you...“

The plot would mainly revolve around the world progressing for the end game and also the characters.

Strangler
A jackass, a Muscle Wizard, and a woman who just wants to fish. In a Sword & Sorcery type of world, can the jackass be the hero he always wanted to be? Or will his mere presence ruin the lives around him. Main Character's Debt tracker added. What to expect: A slow paced story focused on the characters rather than the fate of the world.
