Chapter 130 — I'm an Infinite Regressor, But I've Got Stories to Tell

Chapter 130

The protagonist, the Undertaker, heeds the narrator's advice regarding the Tutorial Fairies and initiates a deep unconscious dive to enter the Secretary-General's mind. Sixty-four fairies surround him, instructing him to sleep. He requests the song 'Island Baby' to avoid the trauma of 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star,' but the fairies sing a grotesque, violent parody of the lyrics before plunging him into sleep. The journey becomes a series of dream-within-dreams, descending through layers of the collective unconscious. He passes through recurring dreamscapes: a café with Old Man Sho’s corpse, Dang Seo-rin’s train, a convenience store, and Baekhwa Girls' High School, encountering fragmented memories and figures like Go Yuri and Noh Do-hwa. The number of fairies holding his hands halves with each layer—64, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2—until only Fairy No. 264 remains at the bottom. At the core, Fairy No. 264 explains that the Undertaker’s unconscious is abnormally solid because his Complete Memory makes past, present, and future coexist without fading. She identifies the location as Busan Station’s waiting room, a stable anchor within humanity’s collective unconscious, which she equates to the void. She warns him that time and space laws do not apply and insists he hold her hand for emergency egress. Suddenly, Go Yuri appears from the darkness. The Undertaker instantly decapitates her, but it is an illusion; the real threat is Go Yuri herself, who effortlessly kills Fairy No. 264 in retaliation. Realizing the danger, the Undertaker flees at full speed, but Go Yuri appears again, mocking him as if playing hide-and-seek. He attempts to escape through three dimensions: he runs through the air using Sky Walking, only to find her sitting on a cloud offering tea; he buries himself deep underground, only to find her excavated beside him with the correct tea. Finally, he triggers an emergency protocol, 'Jeokbyeokga Pansori,' attempting to flee via song, but Go Yuri matches his skill instantly. Defeated and realizing he is trapped in a domain where he cannot outrun her, he concludes he is completely screwed.
