Chapter 275 — I'm an Infinite Regressor, But I've Got Stories to Tell

Chapter 275

The Undertaker begins by recalling his leadership of the mobile fortress BusaN, which traversed the Eurasian continent populated by "Forsaken Villages." These settlements consisted of residents who, unable to survive the hostile Void environment, abandoned their humanity to adapt. The narrator explains that while inhabitants claimed this was a noble adaptation, it was fundamentally incompatible with human existence; one cannot truly adapt to the Void without ceasing to be human. Examples of this degradation include temporal distortions, memory loss, and sensory perversions where sewage becomes appetizing. This moral disintegration culminated in the rise of the Church of Unhappiness, a human-created cult that preached the abandonment of happiness as the only realistic goal in an age of destruction. The narrator contrasts this with cults like the Mo Gwang-seo Faith, which relied on external Anomalies. The narrative then shifts to the narrator’s past, specifically the early cycles of the Tutorial Dungeon. He recalls using Mind Reading in Busan Station, capturing the initial panic of various survivors. He focuses on Jung So-hee, identifying her as a Zealot and a member of the Church of Unhappiness. Jung So-hee was part of the Undertaker’s original party, which also included Uehara Shino, Lee Jae-hee, and a mysterious fifth member erased from memory via Time Seal. In the harsh conditions of the Tutorial Dungeon, where water was scarce and death was imminent, Jung So-hee’s ability to produce clean tap water was vital for survival. She consistently prioritized the combatants, refusing to drink until the others had. The narrator notes that his memories of this period are fragmented and potentially manipulated by Infinite Void. Despite the extreme stress and betrayal rampant among other raiders, Jung So-hee remained selfless. However, in a crucial moment of despair, she asked the Undertaker if he was unhappy and offered him the "good word" of her church. The chapter concludes with the revelation that Jung So-hee had infiltrated his party with the specific intent of spreading the misfortune and unhappiness of her faith to him.
