Chapter 139 — I'm an Infinite Regressor, But I've Got Stories to Tell

Chapter 139

Go Yuir reflects on the nature of luck and the 'Total Luck Law' anomaly while sitting with the Monkey's Paw. He debates whether his regressor knowledge constitutes luck, ultimately deciding that his efforts to gather information, such as securing Dang Seo-rin’s preferences, are earned rather than random. To test the anomaly, he travels to Jeju Island during his 590th cycle, which he treats as a vacation cycle. At the summit of Seongsan Ilchulbong, he makes three specific wishes to the Monkey's Paw: first, to receive endless luck that defies probability; second, to delay any negative side effects for ten years; and third, to delay any physical transformation (such as becoming furry) for the same duration. The Paw disintegrates into powder, which is absorbed into his arm, seemingly granting the wish. Back in Busan, however, no immediate miraculous events occur, leading Yuir to doubt the wish's efficacy. A knock on his office door interrupts his thoughts. An unknown visitor claims to be seeking the 'greatest swordsman in Korea.' Yuir admits he is the Undertaker. The visitor, a young man with vibrant gray hair and tattered Joseon-era clothing, introduces himself as the Sword Marquess, a noble of the defunct Sirland Duchy and Sect Leader of the Mount Hua Sect. He requests a duel to test his skills. Yuir, sensing a dangerous aura but also strategic value, accepts. The Sword Marquess fights Yuir to a standstill for 101 rounds, demonstrating power capable of holding a frontline against anomalies. Yuir wins but is unsettled by the visitor's performance and peculiar speech patterns, briefly suspecting Go Yuri’s illusions. After the duel, the Sword Marquess asks Yuir about his own enlightenment and reversal of aging. Yuir explains he meditated on a beach and experienced a cosmic revelation about time. The Sword Marquess, revealing he achieved a similar reversal of aging through 'pure luck' while fishing, confirms he will stay in Dongnae to train. Yuir realizes this encounter is the first manifestation of his granted wish, as this powerful swordsman had never appeared in his previous 590 cycles.
