When Izuku was four years old, he was diagnosed as quirkless. From that moment on, society branded him as someone who would never become a hero. For years, he carried that weight-fear, disappointment, and the quiet ache of being left behind.
At fifteen, everything changed. Overwhelmed by hopelessness and tired of waiting for a miracle that would never come, Izuku ran away from home. He wandered for hours, then days, until fate guided him to a hidden cave deep within the mountains.
Inside, he discovered ancient markings, forgotten relics, and a presence unlike anything he had ever felt. It wasn't a quirk. It was something older-something powerful.
Ki.
Energy that flowed through all living beings... and it responded to him.
From that moment, Izuku's real story began.
The story of a quirkless boy destined to become a hero not through genetics or luck, but through willpower, training, and the strength of his own spirit.
