Chapter 126 — I'm an Infinite Regressor, But I've Got Stories to Tell

Chapter 126

Noh Do-hwa proposes a pragmatic strategy to the MC to utilize the Resurrection Church, led by Mo Gwang-seo, as a human shield against northern anomalies. While acknowledging that Mo Gwang-seo lacks powers beyond his ability to resurrect and emit blinding light, Noh Do-hwa argues that the church's followers are eager to die and can be manipulated. The MC considers the cult's history, noting its roots in Korean Christianity and the Northern Crusade ideology, and agrees that using them serves the greater efficiency, setting aside personal reservations about their 'slow suicide.' Noh Do-hwa suggests manipulating Mo Gwang-seo directly, noting that Cheon Yo-hwa’s brainwashing is ineffective because it resets with each resurrection. She identifies Lee Ha-yul as a 'bum' within the guild capable of the task. The MC recalls Lee Ha-yul’s nomadic nature and her unique ability to create puppet threads. After some negotiation where Ha-yul demands three years of impunity and threatens to delete the MC’s SG Net account if refused, she agrees to the mission. The MC infiltrates Pyongyang, specifically the Kumsusan Palace of the Sun repurposed as a cathedral, and attaches puppet threads to Mo Gwang-seo. Lee Ha-yul tests the connection remotely; Mo Gwang-seo’s mouth moves to recite lines from Romance of the Three Kingdoms, confirming control. The MC adjusts Ha-yul’s aura range slightly before returning. The next Sunday, through a hypnosis app with a backdoor, Mo Gwang-seo delivers a speech commanding followers to build fortresses and defend against monsters, effectively halting their northward expansion. Concurrently, the MC and Jeong Ye-ji establish a fake Constellation, 'Morning Star of the Second Coming,' to send daily commands to the followers, solidifying their control over the Eastern Holy State. Noh Do-hwa expresses satisfaction. In an epilogue, during a routine maintenance visit to Pyongyang, the MC observes Mo Gwang-seo quoting the Gospel of Matthew, specifically urging the MC to 'enter through the narrow gate' and calling him 'Scribe.' When the MC questions Lee Ha-yul about the quote, she denies having read the Bible, leaving the source of the message ambiguous.
