Chapter 127 — I'm an Infinite Regressor, But I've Got Stories to Tell

Chapter 127

The narrator (Undertaker) reflects on the cyclical nature of regression, noting that fifteen years post-regression typically brings false stability, though the Korean Peninsula remains under threat. The narrative shifts to a crisis in Pyongyang, where Mo Gwang-seo Christ Cathedral has collapsed under a Monster Wave, leading to the annihilation of the city and its awakeners. Undertaker briefs Noh Do-hwa and the Saintess on this threat, explaining that Monster Waves are ocean-class anomalies driven by sheer quantity rather than unique gimmicks. He reveals a strategy: the Monster Wave first appears in Istanbul, Turkey, exactly one day after regression, when the anomaly count is low (1,000). He proposes taking the Saintess to Istanbul to destroy it early. Despite the Saintess’s discomfort with travel, Undertaker takes her across the Eurasian void, arriving in Istanbul in 113 hours using her [Time Stop] ability and his aura training. They successfully exterminate the wave in Istanbul, earning gratitude from locals. However, seventeen years later, the entire Korean Peninsula is destroyed, proving Undertaker’s assumption wrong. The Monster Wave is not limited to Istanbul but occurs globally whenever the 'void' reaches a certain size, appearing in Germany, India, Russia, and Mongolia. Noh Do-hwa reveals that defending against these periodic, massive waves is practically impossible due to the exhaustion of Awakeners. Realizing that traditional defense is futile, Undertaker seeks a different solution. Inspired by Sim Ah-ryeon’s desire to play as a constellation in the SG Net and her acceptance of hatred toward her avatar, Undertaker devises 'Project Zero Requiem.' In the 217th cycle, he manipulates the Saintess into announcing a 'constellation' who challenges Korea with the Ten Legs anomaly. By framing the anomalies as attacks from a specific, hated entity, he aims to redirect the populace's resentment away from the awakeners and onto a single 'mastermind.' The chapter ends with Sim Ah-ryeon, playing the role of the 'Collector of All Anomalies,' reveling in the flood of hatred directed at her, marking the start of a new strategy to manage public anger.
