Prologue

˝Welp… What do I do now?˝

I am floating in nothingness with nothing to do but stare nowhere.

˝Well you are probably wondering how I got here…˝

I start to tell my story to myself out loud because of boredom.

…

My name is Jahn. It was just another day in this boring and unfair world of ours. I decided to go out and buy some random stuff to try out as a hobby, this time its leather working tools.

But crossing the street to the mall I saw a speeding truck going 100 km/h in a 50 zone, heading straight towards me. Any step forward or back, the truck adjusts it course straight for me so I just stood still on the road. I notice that the truck doesn't have a driver so it has to be the bastard.

Just before it collided with me, I drop flat to the ground letting the truck pass over me. After it is gone I just stand up and walk towards the mall with no change of expression.

˝Leave me alone already, you bastard truck-kun! Can't you fucking give up? And tell all your bastard friends too.˝ My words unconsciously escape from my mouth while walking.

Yep this wasn't my first encounter with the notorious truck-kun or any of his friends like flowerpot, lightning, plane,… These bastards have been targeting me since I was a kid! My life is a literal hellhole of murder attempts. By now I am more proficient in surviving than fucking Bear Grills! And that's what he said himself!

˝What does it make it now? Fifteen years and probably over 3000 attempts to kill me from all of the bastards? *sigh* I am not even evil or a saint, why are you all gunning for my life?˝ I sighed tiredly.

A few hours passed in the mall when I heard screaming down the hallway. Standing up I saw the truck bastard driving inside the mall!

˝Oh you gotta be fucking me…˝ I held my head before I ran to the high counter of the open cafe in the mall. I jumped on it and waited for the right moment. I ran forwards and jumped off the counter, over truck-kun like a high jump athlete. I used the falling technique of martial arts to stop most of the momentum of the fall though it still hurt.

The truck crashed through the café but then it changed its gear to reverse, which was my que to run the fuck away. Somehow the bastard even followed me to the top of the height restricted parking house. The bastard charged after me, but I juked him in the last moment and had him crash through the railings on his own, falling down from a height of 20 m and destroying itself.

˝That's karma bitch! Now stop your bullshit pursuit of…˝

˝HONK!!!˝

I freeze at the honk from behind me to which I turn my head.

˝…There are more of you bastards?!˝

The bastard truck seemed to be offended and pressed the pedal to the metal while also lowering his body. It was so low it was generating sparks, so I can't evade him under or just hang by my finger off the edge.

I jump off the building making the bastard fly over me to its own death.

˝If I die, I will do it my way! I ain't giving you the satisfaction of running me over! I will also be able to brag I took two of you down with me! HAHAHA!˝ I derangedly start laughing my ass off while falling to my death from sheer Shädenfreude.

…

˝And that's how it happened!˝ I explained as if someone is listening.

˝You done talking to yourself?˝ A random voice asks.

˝Oh? Someone is here? Who are you?˝ I ask the voice.

˝I am the president of the truck reincarnation and transmigration office.˝ The voice answers.

˝You are the boss of the bastards?! Did you have a grudge against me?!˝ I shout.

˝I didn't. I am just the boss who manages the company. Our clients aka gods picked to have you killed because they needed champions for their worlds.˝

˝… Who was so persistent to have me killed for 15 years?! And why even me?˝

˝No one was persistent for 15 years. Our employee's went to do their job, but failed. The god at first told us to continue for a while, then he got impatient and even hired the other companies, like the flowerpot, lightning,… But you survived every time so that god gave up, but others tried their luck.˝

˝Don't forget the yandere awakenings or the psycho murderers or fucking meteor crashes! ˝

˝You were chosen because your soul is literally useless in your previous world. It's not synced correctly so you never were truly connected or wanted to be a part of it. But in other worlds you soul has potential to achieve great things.˝

˝I don't care, you made my life a hellhole! So… who was this times client?˝

˝Nobody! Because you were hard to kill, you became a legend in our line of business… so much so, that employee's of our and related companies hunted you in their free time for the achievement of finally getting you.˝

˝So I died for nothing with no world or god waiting for me?˝

˝Nope, everyone who wanted you already moved on and took champions. They only kept watching you out of amusement of your survival ability.˝

˝Then what do I do now?! I should get something and get reincarnated or something. I was a legend and held a record of being hunted for 15 years, took down two of your drivers while also not letting my kill be done by any employees of your companies.˝

˝True, but the gods already have a champion… let me ask.˝

A weird ass undecipherable language started to be spoken by the voice and some new arrived voices. After a short discussion the voice talked.

˝Well I talked to the gods that previously wanted you. They used some power to create a system. You can build it yourself in reasonable limits and let you reincarnate or transmigrate to a alternate world of your choice. Those include what you thought fictional worlds of books, movies etc.˝

˝Alright, so how do I use it?˝

˝Just say 'run system' and it will respond. Well I'm going now, have a better life this time I guess.˝

The voice faded leaving me alone. I close my eyes and start boiling with rage by remembering my shitty life.

After the age of ten, all kind of death threats kept happening to me. At first it was speeding trucks, flower pots and food poisoning. These were mild so I could survive them with caution. But then all hell went lose. Random lightning bolts, plane crashes, fires, explosions, meteors, the girls I dated turned out to be overprotective psycho yanderes, serial murderers and even armed thieves targeted my home.

My life was literal hell where the thought of suicide was passing through my head every day, but I instead became determined not to die because of this and survive.

I learned martial arts, bare handed and armed ones.

Shooting skills and escaping techniques.

I trained my stamina, flexibility, reflexes and strength.

I learned basic survival techniques from former soldiers and even Bear Grills after I wrote him about my life. Seeing what I've gone through he personally came and took me around for a few months.

And now, I know I went through this bullshit all because of these bastard gods and the reincarnation/ transmigration companies… I will have my vengeance!

˝Run system.˝ I open my eyes and say calmly.

[Starting system… System started! What will the system be based on and encompass?]

˝It will be based on the powers of Lord of mysteries. I can consume the potions of all pathways with no backlash, not be affected by madness or the residual personality of the ingredients… And make the faceless powers encompass also sex change. I don't want to permanently become a woman when I advance to witch or other sequences.˝

[The system can allow this under the condition that no more that 3 pathway powers are used at once. You can also only consume one potion per travel.]

˝Do the passive effects of other pathways still apply even if I use just the specific three? And what do you mean per travel?˝

[Passive effects persist since they are integrated with your body and soul. You will be too strong if you are able to drink and digest all the potions in an easy world, throwing it off balance. For this reason, we will allow you to world travel but only drink one potion at a time. The traveling will be random and you can do it after digesting the potion. If you reappear in a world you have visited before you can still drink another potion.]

˝Tch, stupid nerf. Fine, if I leave let the world freeze so it waits for my return. I also get a starting potion of my choice.˝

[Arranged.]

˝Now tell me which worlds will I be traveling? Unknown ones or something similar to our world.˝

[Depends on the world. You will be able to travel between every world you know of.]

˝That being…?˝

[What you think as fictional worlds. They are just alternate universes that gave a glimpse to your universes storytellers.]

˝Should I be afraid? I read and seen quite a few fucked up stories…˝

[The travel is random, but it does take your preferences into account… Most of the time.]

˝Good, do I get any background if I transmigrate there? ˝

[You can build a background as an original character or just stay without one. Some worlds don't need it.]

˝Alright, I guess. Now for the ingredients of the later potions. Create a dimension where I can enter to hunt beyonder creatures. Also create a shop where I can trade in the ingredients for other ingredients or special potions.˝

[Created the 'Beyonder hunting grounds'. Created the beyonder and potion shop.]

˝I can take things and beings from their home worlds with me. Because I will be helpless if I start in powerful worlds, I want to be able to learn the abilities of those worlds.˝

[It's allowed, though there are restrictions when using those powers in other worlds.]

˝Show me the system characteristics.˝

[System:

1. User can consume potions of all pathways without them rejecting each other or causing madness or affecting users personality. Others can only consume one potion per world travel. If he reappears he can still consume another potion.

2. User has a random world traveling ability. When he digests a potion he can continue to travel. While the user is not present, the worlds are frozen waiting for his re-entry.

3. User can obtain the characteristics, materials and ingredients in the 'Beyonder hunting grounds or in the shop. There he can exchange ingredients for points, other ingredients or special potions.

4. User can only consume the lowest potion of the chosen sequence, meaning from sequence 9 up.

5. User can only use 3 pathways at the same time. Not using the powers of one pathway for a day allows him to swap it. The passive abilities apply no matter if the pathway is selected or not.

6. User can learn the powers of the visited universes, but there will be restrictions using them in other universes depending on the power level of said universe.

7. User can bring back items, creatures and people, but they will have restrictions in other universes depending on the power level of said universe.

8. For the advancement rituals, user has to find the closest things possible to advance or the potions will refuse to be absorbed.

9. User can craft characteristics into artifacts if he needs to.

10. First potion is gifted for free.]

˝So what's my starting location?˝

[Starting location has been specified. You will be entering the movie world of Matilda.]

˝… Ugh Matilda for the start… I choose the Prisoner potion since the teacher bitch literally makes the school a prison, if I remember correctly.˝

[Granted. You can travel now… What will you name the system?]

˝Name it the...˝
