The gods gave Pandora many gifts, including beauty, intelligence, and curiosity... But one of the most dangerous gifts was a beautiful magic box. Once this magic box is opened, all kinds of evil spirits who are proficient in the magic of chaos will come out from it and harm the world.

Although the gods warned Pandora not to open the box, Pandora ultimately did not listen to the gods' advice. Driven by strong curiosity, she finally opened the magic box. Although she closed the magic box in time, the whole world was instantly filled with various evil spirits released from the magic box and fell into chaos.
