Good morning! Three countries work as workers

Lu Xianyu, a modern individual transmigrated into the late Eastern Han Dynasty, possesses the physical attributes of a level-five Magus with absurdly high combat stats but a critically low Charisma score of five. This statistical anomaly causes all native humans to instinctively dislike and fear her, forcing her to survive alone in the wilderness for three months by hunting bandits and scavenging. After defeating a group of Yellow Turban rebels in Stone-Gate Gully, she saves a minor official named Zhang Min, who is transporting medicinal herbs for Governor Zhu Jun. Recognizing her lethal archery skills despite her unremarkable appearance, Zhang Min invites her to Luoyang, offering her employment as a butcher’s assistant to escape her isolated life.

Upon entering the capital, Lu Xianyu, who refers to herself as "Salted Fish," struggles with the harsh realities of Han Dynasty urban life. The city is plagued by pollution, high housing costs, and social stratification. Despite her low Charisma causing brokers to humiliate her, she manages to purchase a dilapidated courtyard house in the commoner district using savings accumulated from looting weapons and gold coins from her previous world. She secures a position at a butcher shop owned by Uncle Fourth Yang, where her supernatural strength allows her to slaughter livestock with terrifying efficiency, quickly earning the respect of her colleagues despite her abrasive personality and hoarse voice.

The narrative shifts when Emperor Ling passes away, plunging the capital into political turmoil. The court is divided between the Grand General He Jin, representing the military aristocracy, and the Ten Regular Attendants, the powerful eunuch faction. Lu Xianyu’s path crosses with Cao Cao, who holds the rank of Colonel of the Household Troops. While herding pigs outside the city, Lu Xianyu is harassed by corrupt soldiers attempting to seize her livestock. Cao Cao intervenes, impressed by her calm demeanor and hidden martial prowess. He challenges her to a spar, during which she refuses to draw her sword, relying instead on a mysterious, heavily wrapped weapon she calls "Black Blade."

Black Blade is a sentient divine weapon that communicates with Lu Xianyu internally, expressing disdain for her mundane tasks and her lack of proper reverence. Despite the weapon’s complaints, Lu Xianyu remains focused on her goal of living a quiet, ordinary life as a commoner. She navigates the complex social hierarchy of Luoyang, forming tentative friendships with neighbors like Madam Mei, a widow who runs a local tavern. However, the political tension in the capital continues to escalate, with rumors of an impending conflict between He Jin and the eunuchs growing louder.

Lu Xianyu’s presence in Luoyang does not go unnoticed by the city’s powerful factions. Her combat abilities, though concealed behind a facade of a simple butcher, attract the attention of figures like Cao Cao, who recognizes her potential as a warrior. The story sets the stage for her entanglement in the larger historical events of the late Han Dynasty, as the fragile peace of the capital is about to shatter. Her desire for a peaceful existence clashes with the violent realities of the era, forcing her to confront the growing chaos that threatens to engulf everyone in the city.

As the political crisis deepens, Lu Xianyu finds herself caught between the competing powers of the imperial court. The death of the emperor has created a power vacuum, and various factions are maneuvering for control. Lu Xianyu’s unique background as a transmigrator gives her a perspective distinct from the natives, allowing her to analyze the situation with a mix of modern knowledge and practical survival instincts. Her interactions with historical figures like Cao Cao suggest that she will play a role in the unfolding drama, despite her initial intentions to remain unnoticed.

The story explores themes of identity, survival, and the impact of individual agency on historical events. Lu Xianyu’s low Charisma serves as a narrative device to highlight the difficulties of social integration in a rigid hierarchy, while her high combat stats provide her with the means to protect herself. The dynamic between her and Black Blade adds a layer of humor and internal conflict, as the weapon’s arrogance contrasts with Lu Xianyu’s pragmatic approach to life. The narrative builds towards a climax where Lu Xianyu must decide whether to remain on the sidelines or engage with the forces shaping the destiny of the Han Dynasty.
