Chapter 313 — I'm an Infinite Regressor, But I've Got Stories to Tell

Chapter 313

In this chapter, the narrator (Undertaker) reflects on his rare, face-to-face interactions with Go Yuri in a recent cycle, contrasting them with his frequent but virtual encounters with her 'dream' counterpart. He notes that Go Yuri distinguishes herself by addressing him as 'Mr. Undertaker' or 'Doc,' whereas his dream version calls him 'Guild Leader.' During a genuine meeting, Go Yuri reveals she is a devoted reader of the novel 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms: Gongsun Zan Edition' posted on SG Net by the author Mudang, a revelation that briefly disarms the narrator’s suspicion. She rapidly ascends through the ranks of familiarity in her address, moving from 'Undertaker, sir' to 'Doc,' which unnerves the narrator, who fears her overwhelming presence and influence. After a tense exchange about her definition of a 'true reader,' Go Yuri shifts the topic to the Super Monsoon Anomaly, Leviathan. She reveals that Leviathan has grown unnaturally large during a prolonged drought, unlike in past cycles where flooding amplified its power. She implies that the drought has made Leviathan desperate and predatory, rendering the narrator's usual defensive tactic—plastering beaches with the character for 'tiger'—ineffective. The narrator realizes Leviathan is not just a monster but a metaphor for 'The State,' referencing Thomas Hobbes's work where the state is depicted as a king composed of countless humans. Go Yuri confirms that 'Mr. Dragon' (Leviathan) is starving and seeking the cause of its hunger. The chapter concludes with the narrator understanding that this colossal Anomaly, representing the state, is approaching, driven by hunger rather than typical predatory instincts.
