For years, Lutz toiled in the kingdom's rigid hierarchy, where birth determined destiny and commoners like him were perpetually shackled to the bottom rungs of society. No matter how diligently he labored or how many extra hours he sacrificed, his efforts were met with cold dismissal—acknowledgment was a privilege reserved for the nobility, and advancement was an illusion. His unique magical ability, dismissed by the kingdom's mages as worthless and impractical, only deepened his status as an outcast. But Lutz's patience eventually wore thin, and he made a bold decision: he would abandon the land of his birth and seek his fortune elsewhere. That elsewhere was the Empire—a nation built not on bloodlines, but on undeniable results. In this sprawling meritocracy, talent and diligence were the true currencies of success, and creativity was rewarded rather than suppressed. To Lutz's astonishment, the very magic that had been scorned back home proved devastatingly effective on Imperial soil, capable of single-handedly obliterating monster forces that would require a full platoon to subdue. Suddenly, his "useless" power became his greatest asset, opening doors he had never thought possible. In the Empire, the path to prestige was clear and attainable: prove your worth, and the world would yield. With renewed hope and a burning resolve, Lutz sets forth into this new land—where hard work is honored, rewards are tangible, and the only ceiling is the one you refuse to break through.
