Discriminated Slime Tamer

Riku's life on Earth was cold, cruel, and far too short. Born an orphan, mistreated by the very people who took him in, and abandoned to the streets, he endured every day in silence. At just fifteen, his life came to a tragic end—stabbed while trying to protect a classmate from a thief. No thanks, no happy ending. Just pain and a lonely death. But in the endless void beyond, a goddess appears—touched by his courage and quiet suffering. She grants him a second chance—not as a hero, not with overpowered skills, but simply in the hope that he might finally live a normal loving life. Reborn in the magical world of Antsalphia as Leif Holloway, he’s given what he never had before: a loving family. The son of two respected Tamers, Leif grows up in a peaceful rural town, surrounded by warmth, laughter, and friends. For the first time in his life, he feels like he belongs. Then comes the Tamer Initiation Ceremony—the moment every child’s potential is revealed. And Leif’s result? Slime Tamer. The weakest, most pitied class in the world. Laughed at by other children, dismissed by townsfolk, and whispered about behind his back, Leif is once again faced with rejection. But this time, he’s not alone. With the unwavering support of his parents and a heart determined to prove himself, Leif vows to rise above the label. To show the world that even a "weak" Tamer can grow strong. That bonds matter more than rankings. And that a life worth smiling for... is one worth fighting for. His journey begins now... at the Grand Tamer Academy of Anteria Kingdom.
