Chapter 159 — I'm an Infinite Regressor, But I've Got Stories to Tell

Chapter 159

The Undertaker reflects on his sixth sense, a premonition of fate honed by extensive regression, which triggers a deep connection with Oh Dok-seo. He proposes a pact: rather than sealing her within a stream or game, he will allow her to write his life story as a novel. Oh Dok-seo initially questions the rationale, noting that she acts merely as a game character while he is the player, but she raises a crucial concern regarding the balance of power. She warns that if either becomes too superior to the other, they risk transforming into anomaly-level monsters themselves, citing the potential scenario where she defeats him, becomes the protagonist, and merges with the anomaly's 'protagonist correction.' To avoid this, she proposes a mutual constraint system: she will write his story (reportage literature), and he will write hers. This creates a symbiotic relationship where they are each other's protagonists and writers, tethered like mountain climbers. She clarifies that while she writes the bulk of the narrative, he will write the sections mentioning her to ensure balanced representation. The Undertaker accepts, trusting her despite internal doubts about her intentions, and they formally entrust their interpretations to one another. Oh Dok-seo then addresses the Admin of the Infinite Metagame, a white girl clinging to her foot, declaring that the world is now a novel she writes about the Undertaker. She asserts her authority, instructing the anomaly to request <Advanced Chapters> if it wishes to retire. The anomaly attempts to resist but is ultimately sucked into the laptop, along with its black filth and the surrounding white space, effectively sealing it. The real-time reading and evaluation by the public now serves as the mechanism suppressing various anomalies, linking the Undertaker, the public, and Oh Dok-seo as comrades. Two years later, Oh Dok-seo faces the agonies of creation. Cursed by the anomaly's lingering influence, she suffers from chronic writer's block, procrastination, and self-doubt, exacerbated by the 'Admin' treating her as a writer. She briefly considers spreading these afflictions to all writers to alleviate her isolation but is dissuaded. After two years of struggle, she finally completes the first prologue. The chapter concludes with the Undertaker reviewing the document, which begins with the words: 'Infinite Regression.'
