There is a character in every story. Special One. It becomes the center of the story. i.e. the Main character.

The author takes special care of them. Provides them wise thinking. Good luck. A charm. In some cases special powers, too. Sometimes readers bind that character to themselves, that's how they keep engaging with the story.

I'm wondering, will readers accept a story that has no special one?  
How can the story evolve without them? Moreover, is it always necessary to have such a Main character for a story?
