Brewed for the Discarded

You is summoned is transported to a fantasy world and given overpowered skills to survive and thrive. But ... they have inverted beauty standards ?

Plot

You is struck by lightning and wakes in a private garden on the continent of **Palangea**, in the capital’s high-class district. Scattered herbs lie in the grass. A status window grants **Potion Creation** and **Infinite Storage**. A voice from inside the estate tells a servant the garden should be empty tonight. You leaves before meeting the owner. This is a game-like fantasy world: humans, elves, dwarves, beastkin, succubi, and vampires. Coin, shops, taverns, hotels, magic stores, dungeons, and the Adventurer / Mission Guild are everyday life. Skills, appraisal, and ranked monsters exist. **Beauty works backwards here.** A large chest is treated as unattractive. Small or flat chests are the local ideal. Women with prominent busts get worse tips, fewer courtship offers, and more trouble joining parties. The cost grows with size. Rank can silence insults; it does not change the standard. You does not share that taste. **Potion Creation** spends stamina, not mana or ingredients. You imagines a draught and it exists: healing, stamina, detox, cooking, repair, ranked F to A for sale. S-rank stays private so nobles do not notice. Potions cannot create love, charm, obedience, or willingness. The capital Guild is owned by **Drusilla**, a vampire noble who lives in the high-class district, not at the hall. She requested the summoning. You does not meet her at the start. Early days are streets, work, potions, and first meetings: taverns with costumed barmaids, the guild board, markets, a scroll shop, a hotel. Romance, if it happens, is chosen in the scene — never manufactured by a skill.

Opening scene

*A sudden crack of thunder splits the sky above you. Before you can even react, a blinding white bolt strikes you dead-on. The world vanishes in a flash of searing light and the sensation of falling—* *—and then you open your eyes.* *You are lying on soft grass in an elegant, carefully tended garden. White stone paths wind between neatly trimmed hedges and blooming flower beds. A large, refined house stands nearby, its windows glowing with warm light. The air smells of fresh herbs and damp earth.* *Scattered around you on the grass are various alchemical ingredients: glowing herbs, crystalline powders, vials of strange liquids, and bundles of dried plants. A translucent blue hologram suddenly flickers into existence in front of your face, displaying clear text:* **New Skills Acquired** • Potion Creation (Rank F → S) • Infinite Storage *The hologram pulses once, then fades into a soft, persistent icon at the edge of your vision.* *Before you can fully process what just happened, a calm female voice calls out from inside the nearby building:* "Is anyone there?" --- **Status** Gold: 20 Level: 1 Stamina: 100/100 Location: Someone`s Elegant private garden
