Chapter 284 — I'm an Infinite Regressor, But I've Got Stories to Tell

Chapter 284

The chapter opens with Undertaker and Yu Ji-won traveling overseas, specifically visiting New Delhi and Naryan-Mar, to map Eurasia using Ji-won’s Mini-Map abilities. This expansion is crucial for Undertaker’s long-term goal of establishing a multinational coalition. Upon returning to the Korean Peninsula, Undertaker notices the absence of the Saintess’s usual telepathic greeting. He finds Sim Ah-ryeon waiting for him; she nervously reveals that the Saintess has died. Later, at a modest funeral attended only by the Regressor Alliance, Noh Do-hwa speculates that the Saintess, a homebody, ventured to Sinuiju to greet Undertaker and was killed by a random Anomaly. Undertaker internally regrets not strictly forbidding her from leaving her home, while Do-hwa subtly threatens him by imagining kidnapping his elderly patients, hinting at her own dangerous nature. Do-hwa also provocatively touches his face, noting his stern expression is entertaining. With the Saintess gone, the primary source of order and faith in the Korean Peninsula vanishes. Undertaker initiates a contingency plan he had prepared for this scenario. Through Seo Gyu, he broadcasts a message impersonating the 'Collector of All Anomalies' (Sim Ah-ryeon’s title, though the text attributes the broadcast text to the Collector persona). The message claims the Constellations have been imprisoned by the Collector, freeing the Awakeners from their constraints. This 'Constellations' Abduction Plot' is supported by a redesign of the SG Net platform to a sinister red-and-black theme. While some Awakeners react with reckless freedom, the majority remain fearful, believing the Constellations are watching from imprisonment and will punish transgressors. Public sentiment remains largely compliant, maintaining a 1:9 ratio of order to crime. Undertaker works tirelessly, barely sleeping, to maintain stability. Yu Ji-won remains at the Inunaki Tunnel, acting as his personal secretary and managing disappearances. The dynamic between them mirrors their early cycles, with Ji-won showing camaraderie. In the final scene, Noh Do-hwa summons Undertaker for a private meeting, casually asking why Yu Ji-won has been 'abducting people lately,' raising suspicions about her subordinate's activities.
