Chapter 113 — I'm an Infinite Regressor, But I've Got Stories to Tell

Chapter 113

The narrator, an unidentified regressor, reflects on the aftermath of the Infinite Void's defeat. He notes that the collapse of the balance of power led to a surge in monster activity and religious wars, but also gave rise to a peculiar phenomenon he calls 'Hero Syndrome,' first witnessed in the 118th cycle. He traces a pattern of absurd trends emerging post-Infinite Void: the 'Isekai Truck' in the 119th cycle, the 'Savior Syndrome' in the 126th, and fictional infrastructure like the Korea-Japan Undersea Tunnel in the 141st. These were precursors to a massive shift: the appearance of a virtual reality MMORPG-style status window system. Previously, the narrator maintained control over Korean Peninsula awakeners through information monopoly. He used his [Complete Memory] to predict and explain abilities that others discovered through trial and error. He manipulated public perception by attributing these discoveries to constellations, using Sim Ahyeon (who could mimic constellations) and his own knowledge to grant 'blessings' via SG Net. This established his authority as the Guild Leader and ensured loyalty. However, in the 133rd cycle, a post on SG Net claiming a status window appeared caused a crisis. The narrator dismissed it initially, but soon confirmed that status screens were appearing holographically for awakeners nationwide. The chaos culminated when Sim Ah-ryeon barged into the narrator's private room, rolling in rather than walking, and excitedly showed him her own status. Her window displayed SSS-class rank for her unique skill, 'Bird That Drinks Poison,' which converts resentment and poison into healing power. She interpreted the system's 'SSS' rank as 'S-S-S-class' due to her speech impediment and social anxiety. The narrator, unfamiliar with web novel tropes like 'Hero Syndrome' or specific rank notations, remained silent and confused. Sim Ah-ryeon, interpreting his silence as insecurity about her stats, apologized for boasting and left. The narrator, realizing the gravity of the situation, ordered the 'Saintess' (Sim Ah-ryeon) to gather all information on the anomaly. He declared war on the 'Status Window,' recognizing it as a fundamental threat to his information-based control over the world. The chapter ends with the narrator preparing to counter this new, unpredictable variable that disrupts his carefully orchestrated hierarchy.
