What happens when reality itself is tired of existing?

The System was once a proud, omniscient force, maintaining order in the grand story of E. But after years of logical paradoxes, impossible plot twists, and one emotionally bankrupt protagonist who breaks the rules for fun, it finally snaps.

Bob, the designated "unfortunate side character," just wants a normal life. Refunds. Stability. A moment of peace. But when E—the embodiment of chaos and questionable decision-making—decides to mess with a world reset, everything spirals into undefined territory.

Now, the laws of existence are unstable, the System is filing HR complaints against its own existence, and Bob finds himself in a genre that shouldn’t exist.

Can the System regain control before reality collapses? Or is this just another 10/10 update that nobody asked for?

…Also, who even approved the Customer Support feature?

The Paradox of E

The Treasury Minister now screams in his sleep.

The Former King started an investment firm.

The High Priest is charging interest on forgiveness.

Someone tried to sell their entire personality.

1. The Fine Print (Which No One Reads Anyway)

"Sir, before you proceed, we need to confirm—do you understand the terms and conditions?"

The contract glowed. It had at least 500,000 words in size 2 font.

Section 1: Selling your personality means legally ceasing to be "you."

Section 2: Buyers gain full ownership of your identity.

Section 3: Refunds are available… if you can prove you ever existed in the first place.

The contract shivered. It did not expect anyone to say yes.

2. The Marketplace of Souls (Now Offering Premium Memberships)

"Welcome to the Soul Exchange, where identities are sold at competitive prices!"

E walked into a grand auction hall.

The room was filled with glowing orbs—each containing a person's entire self.

A rich noble examined an orb labeled 'Hopeless Romantic' and sneered.

"Ugh. This one still believes in love. How primitive."

A CEO bid on an orb labeled 'Guilt-Free Decision Making.'

A politician grabbed 'Unshakeable Charisma.'

A strange, empty orb labeled… 'Nameless One.'

"Ah," E muttered. "That one's mine."

3. The Man Who Sold Himself (And Regretted It Instantly)

"Sir, you can't just buy yourself."

He placed a bid. The system hesitated.

Reality materialized, looking absolutely done.

"I just bought the right to be myself."

"Processing… processing… wait. Can he? That wasn't in the rules…"

And just like that, E legally became his own property.

People started selling 'Future Versions' of themselves for investments.

A scholar sold his 'Genius' while keeping his 'Mediocre Effort.'

Someone sold 'Crippling Anxiety' and immediately became unstoppable.

"Sir, people are now buying 'Self-Awareness' to avoid being scammed."

"Sir, a man named Bob just bought 'Self-Confidence' and is now the King of Seven Nations."

"Sir, someone accidentally sold 'The Will to Live' and is now lying on the floor."

"Congratulations, E. You've officially monetized existence itself."

"You just won. The game of life. There's nothing left to buy, sell, or change. You're done."

"If I already won, I need a new game."

"You're saying you're BORED of absolute victory?!"

"Guess I'll just have to raise the stakes."

And that's when E turned to the reader.
