Chapter 211 — I'm an Infinite Regressor, But I've Got Stories to Tell

Chapter 211

Amidst a grim, time-frozen hellscape, the MC proposes moving the conversation to a safer location. The Saintess explains that relocating others during Time Stop requires physical contact and sufficient aura mastery, which most cannot survive. She suggests moving just the two of them, and upon clapping, they instantly transfer to the National Road Management Corps lobby, then to Babel Tower Plaza, demonstrating her control over the frozen state. The MC observes her subtle elation, noting that this is her first interaction with someone in two millennia, a stark contrast to his own two-century isolation. He carries her in a princess carry to the old Baekje Hospital café to offer warmth and comfort, which the Saintess accepts, leaning against him as their auras intertwine—a non-verbal confirmation of mutual humanity between a monster and an Undertaker. Seated with instant coffee, the Saintess reports that her two-thousand-year efforts to infiltrate Nut’s domain have failed. She attempted to cross the boundary by nearing death to trigger visions of the afterlife, but a metaphorical "glass barrier" remained impassable. The MC analyzes their powers: the Saintess creates a realm of "nothingness" (stopped time, no life/pain), which is the polar opposite of Nut’s realm of "something" (an eternal, soul-filled hell). This creates an eternal stalemate where neither can invade the other. To break the barrier, they brainstorm anomalies related to reflection and identity. They consider mirrors, doppelgangers, the Ship of Theseus, and the Potato Saintess. The MC suddenly recalls a specific anomaly: the Magic Mirror from Snow White. He realizes this anomaly, which obsesses over the idea that existence in this world is a sin, is linked to the concept of a "copy" versus reality, potentially offering a way to breach Nut’s defenses or locate the Goddess of the Night.
