Jett was someone who wasn’t social. It wasn’t that he was shy or couldn’t talk to people. Jett enjoyed doing so; it was the fact everyone thought Jett was crazy. Around 80 years ago, Jett started to speak of a place called Pandora and was saying all this about how he would be a god in the future. No one knew why Jett went crazy, but people speculate it was because Jett lost his mother, his last living family. Of course, he wasn’t crazy, but when someone goes around saying that there are, in fact, billions of worlds out there, and we can become gods and rule over them. People will think you are crazy.

After about 10 years of people hearing him talk on and off, Jett just vanished from the public. People thought he had died, but they also said they had seen him buying food. After about a year, people realized he was alive; he didn’t show himself anymore. Everyone thought it was due to him finally becoming sane and getting help. It wasn’t until another 9 years when there were moving vans in front of his house, that he finally talked to people again. His community learned he was leaving the country to go research more about the insane topic. Also, they discovered that he now believes in a weird afterlife where people could choose a room to live in for the rest of the time. Everyone just gave up, saying that some people are just like that, and if Jett is living like this and doing research, he must be making money somehow. He has a good life, even if he researches and goes insane. So, they wished him luck in his life.

After he moved, no one heard of him again. Not just the hometown; everyone didn’t hear about him. It was like he disappeared from the world. Jett was in complete isolation, researching and planning what he would do after he died. It wasn’t until another 70 years passed that he died, and everyone he knew who was calling him insane was dead too. The funny thing is when they died and woke up in Pandora, they freaked out, saying that Jett was telling the truth and that he wasn’t insane. They waited until Jett finally showed up to say sorry to him. That is also where Jett’s plan and story starts, Against the Paradox.

Of course, some people still had questions like how he lived so long while isolated from the outside world. The answer was simple, he learned Buddha’s teaching. Buddha was one of the people to ascend into godhood while being a mortal on earth. Though Jett knew he couldn’t achieve godhood, he knew he could practice some techniques to live longer. Other benefits include conducting better sturdiness and allowing Jett to understand what he read better. It also allowed him to be calmer, and it was what allowed him to trick the god later.

Chapter 1: Pandora

Waking up in a bright white room, Jett knew where he was, though he also knew that he couldn’t show that he knew. The room had a white table, chair, and no door or light source, but it was still bright. Jett walked up to the table, and magically another chair appeared, so he sat down. Sitting in a chair across the table was a person; who was wearing a white tuxedo.

“Hello, where am I currently?” Jett asked.

“Welcome to Pandora’s Box.” The man said, sounding like he was voided of all emotions; even his face wasn’t showing any emotion.

“What is Pandora’s Box?” Jett asked, following up, “Why am I here?”

“Pandora’s Box is what people call heaven or hell. This place has many names but is officially called Pandora’s Box.” The guy gets up and starts walking to a wall, then a door magically appears. “Please follow me, and I will bring you to your room and give you a tour.”

“Hold up, what do you mean, heaven or hell? Do you mean I am dead!?” Jett yelled.

“Yes, you are dead,” He answered while walking out the door.

“I see,” Jett stated while following behind. “Ha, my acting skills are perfect; of course, I know what this place is. I have studied this place for 90 years. This place was created by a “god,” otherwise known as the organization named Pandora.” 

He first showed Jett the rest area, where Jett saw his family and friends that have already died. While showing Jett other places, Jett learned the man’s name, Alexithymia. Though Jett felt familiar with the man’s name, he couldn’t pinpoint the name. Alexithymia finally brought Jett to his door.

“You have heard of this room before; this is Pandora’s Box. It is a room where anything you want can be in it, so what do you want in the room?” Alexithymia said.

Jett was excited about this question. “Yes, this is the question I have been waiting for. I have been studying this place for 90 years, and 60 of those years, I have planned out how I can leave this place.” 

“I want a phone in there with every book, story, novel, and anything fiction-related. The phone will transport me into any story I choose.” Jett said, “From what I have learned, humans are just prophets, and most fictional stories are real but shown to someone in our world to write down.”

 Jett stopped for a while but continued, “I also want a scroll that follows me to each world, allowing me to control my power and let me learn any skills in that world. I also want it to allow me to use power above my own at a price to ensure I don’t die in the world.”

Alexithymia looked confused the first time he showed emotions. “Sorry, I do not know if what you ask is possible. Please wait a moment to check.” But right when he said this, a loud voice that felt like it was shaking the whole place, said, “LET HIM!”

 “Sir, I will now change your Box to your demand. If you want, you can go inside now. I hope you enjoy it; if you ever need it changed, fill out the forum.” Alexithymia was typing something on a tablet. Then he said, “Done.”

Jett went in and looked at the phone; it had all the novels he had read, like Seven Sins, Martial Top, and books like Larry Butter. One thing Jett couldn’t figure out, though, is why “god” allowed him to do this even though it was against the rules. Jett knew that this rule was punishable by death. Pandora controls all worlds and does not like others intervening with the timelines. Even though he was confused, he didn’t care; he had one thing on his mind. It was the plan Jett made for 60 years to allow himself not to be controlled by Pandora. The first step of the goal was to go to the world of the novel, System of Unlimited Cunning.

Before leaving, Jett wanted to say hi to his family and friends. So he went to a main open area where people could hang out and play games and saw his mother, the only family member he had left before she died. He saw all his school and work friends who thought he had gone crazy talking about Pandora. They all felt sorry for thinking so. However, Jett didn’t care since he knew all along that what he said sounded crazy.

Arc 1: System Of Unlimited Cunning.

Chapter 2: The Fire Kingdom’s Prince!

After getting back to his room, Jett quickly used the phone's search bar to locate the novel he wanted. He then tapped the "Transfer" button. Initially, he sensed nothing, but a second later, he fell into a deep slumber. After some time, Jett awoke in a completely different location.

Before Jett could survey his surroundings, a voice boomed, "WHO ARE YOU!"

Jett scrambled to his feet and glanced behind him, hastily raising his arms overhead. He couldn't fathom why armed men were surrounding him.

"Umm, where am I?" Jett inquired.

"What do you mean? You're in the room of the deceased prince of the Fire Kingdom."

"I'm in Prince Yue's room?" Jett questioned.

"Shut up! How dare you utter his name so casually!" Another man shouted. Jett realized these men were likely palace guards. Why had he been teleported to this specific location?

"I... I'm sorry. I don't know where I am. The last thing I remember, I was at home. Then, I woke up here with you all pointing spears at me," Jett explained, though the guards remained skeptical.

"So, you woke up not knowing where you are? Are you suggesting you were kidnapped and brought here?" Guard number 3 inquired.

"Yes, that must be it. One of my enemies must have plotted against me," Jett responded. One of the guards retorted, "You're saying someone went to the extreme of breaking into the palace just to frame you. Who are you that someone would go to such lengths?"

Jett is raking his brains on this. He never thought this would just happen, especially right when he came to this world. After just a few seconds of thought, he immediately said. “I am a merchant that travels around all the kingdoms. I am one of the few who does this since one has to have a massive trading business to even think of being able to. Because of that, it's a cutthroat space. I have more enemies than I can even count. So of course some of them will try to kill me and even frame me. This time it seems like they succeed in framing me.”

The guards examined Jett for a moment, searching for any signs of deception. However, Jett has practiced lying so that he could get out of anything, so of course, none of the guards could find anything wrong. Then, one of the guards inquired, "Please hand me your merchant card so we can verify your identity.

Jett stares at them, with a puzzled expression prompting the guards to exchange glances. Then he asks, "How am I supposed to do that when I don’t even have any clothes on?"

The guards burst into laughter upon realizing the absurdity of the guard’s question. One of them went to retrieve clothes for Jett. After a short while, the guard returned with the garments. Jett quickly donned them, all the while listening to the guard speak.

"We'll have to detain you for now until we can verify with the merchant guild. Please provide your name and ID number for confirmation," the guards instructed

"I'm Jett, and I don’t have an ID number. Those are only for guild members, not for those who collaborate with them. If you inquire at the guild, they can vouch for me," Jett explained. He hoped the ID number was legitimate, and not a test. However, not knowing how they function, he couldn’t simply provide a random set of numbers.

The guards handcuffed Jett and began escorting him to the prison, treating him as if he were a malevolent criminal. Each guard flanked him on either side. Jett wondered if he had the scroll; he couldn’t feel or see anything. In his contemplation, he noticed a carriage departing from the castle, distinguished by the royal emblem of the Fire Kingdom. Thinking quickly, Jett surmised that this carriage might carry the Fire and Water princesses. If that were the case, Jett reasoned that he'd been transported to the very beginning of the novel, where the main character awakens in a field.

Jett then observed eight dark silhouettes darting across the building, trailing the carriage. Since the guards seemed oblivious to them, Jett chose not to draw attention. Having witnessed it all, Jett was now certain that he had arrived at the very outset of the novel. As he pondered other matters, one of the guards interjected, "We're here. You two, go to the merchant guild and make inquiries. Now, Jett, follow me." The guard gestured to two others who promptly departed, while he escorted Jett into the prison.

Jett trailed behind him, surveying his surroundings. He noticed individuals hanging on the walls, bound by chains. There were also others seated on the floor, leading Jett to surmise that those hanging were likely guilty of more severe crimes. The guards promptly ushered him into a cell occupied by five others, removing the cuffs from Jett's wrists.

"You'll be staying here for the time being until we can verify your statements," the head guard stated. He then turned to the other five prisoners and informed them, "This will be your cellmate for a few hours while we verify his claims. Go easy on him."

One of the five prisoners promptly responded, "Why would we bother with him? Three of us are martial artists, so it's beneath us to attack him, and the other two are weaklings."

The guards chuckled as they walked away, leaving Jett to sit on the floor. Jett began contemplating his next move, well aware that deceiving the guards could have serious consequences. Additionally, he needed to confirm whether the scroll was in his possession.
