There was once a young man who was shunned in his village for his unrealistic dreams. He lived far from the royal capital. At a nameless village in the middle of nowhere.
The villagers treated him and his dream to become the strongest as a joke. They made fun of him for dreaming so big. The only one who supported his dream was his mother and his little sister.
One day, he left the village hoping to get to the royal capital to find someone to teach him instead of rotting away in the village.
But the arduous journey to the capital held no meaning. He was looked down upon by the city dwellers and treated like a rat from the sewers.
