Chapter 292 — I'm an Infinite Regressor, But I've Got Stories to Tell

Chapter 292

The 703 Unit continues its operations, but the narrator is deeply troubled by Yu Ji-won’s recent psychopathic rampage, an event unique to the 703rd cycle. Lee Ha-yul offers emotional support and a chilling suggestion to silence the danger, while Oh Dok-seo wallows in exhaustion. The narrator reflects on the transfer of Kim Ji-soo, a victim of Ji-won’s past atrocities, into their squad. The next day, the narrator (Undertaker) meets with Ji-soo, offering a café au lait and unconditional support for any revenge she seeks against Ji-won. Ji-soo accepts the coffee with a rare moment of softness but clarifies her goal is not death, which she deems too quick, but prolonged suffering. She requests that the narrator order Ji-won to obey her without resistance; the narrator complies. Ji-soo integrates well into the unit, displaying high combat proficiency with her Awakening ability, Phantom Torture, which induces the sensation of decapitation in low-tier Anomalies, rendering them helpless. Despite her past as the 'Godmother' of the Misfortune Workshop, Ji-won remains arrogant, boasting to the unit that her academy-style torture was excellent education. The narrator warns Ji-won against harming Ji-soo further, to which Ji-won cryptically replies that the opposite will happen. On a weekend evening, Ji-soo and Ji-won leave for the woods. The narrator secretly follows them. In a pine forest, the narrator witnesses Ji-soo tying Ji-won to a tree. Ji-soo intends to recreate the torture she inflicted on Saintess Jeong Ye-ji—specifically, flaying the flesh. Ji-soo begins to use Phantom Torture to shred Ji-won’s skin while Ji-won is bound. Ji-won screams in pure agony, a sound unheard from her before. The torture continues for five hours, with Ji-soo forcing Ji-won’s awakening to keep her conscious. When it ends, Ji-soo is drained, and Ji-won is wrecked but eerily calm, claiming the suffering is meaningless because she cannot truly be hurt. Ji-soo, bleeding from her lip, stares at her broken tormentor.
