Chapter 386 — I'm an Infinite Regressor, But I've Got Stories to Tell

Chapter 386

Following the events at the resort, the Undetaker and Noh Do-hwa lay low on a deserted island for several days, adhering to Do-hwa’s insistence on secrecy. Do-hwa instructs the Undetaker to return to Busan and feign normalcy, claiming they are observing humanity’s reaction to discover the perfect strategy. She then departs, leaving the Undetaker to investigate Cheon Yo-hwa at the Tower of Babel. The Undetaker interrogates Cheon Yo-hwa, who sits casually on a desk, about how she persuaded Do-hwa. The Undetaker reveals the content of the notes he wrote: 'Reverse thinking,' 'Simply trust one human being,' 'A wager,' and 'Cowardice of the defeated.' Cheon Yo-hwa analyzes these, explaining that Do-hwa, being highly suspicious, would assume a trap. The second note, 'Simply trust one human being, the Undertaker,' served as a wager—a gamble on whether the Undetaker could achieve a happy ending that included Do-hwa. Cheon Yo-hwa, a gambler by nature, staked everything on the slim chance of success, stating she would gladly accept defeat if caused by him because her trust was genuine. She admits she cannot explain the other notes, teasing that the Undetaker must ask Do-hwa directly. A week passes. The Undetaker receives a telepathic message from Jeong Ye-ji, who questions if he enjoyed his vacation. He deflects, claiming he simply let Do-hwa rest because she never rests on her own. Jeong Ye-ji probes further, revealing that Do-hwa bought expensive, fashionable clothes, suggesting a shift in her demeanor. The Undetaker feigns ignorance. Later, Yu Ji-won bursts into the Undetaker’s room, alarmed that Director Noh Do-hwa has been 'possessed by an anomaly.' Yu Ji-won explains that Do-hwa’s behavior has become bizarre: she asked for fashion advice, summoned top designers, and softened her speech from pessimistic to gentle. Yu Ji-won attempts to report more but is telepathically silenced by Jeong Ye-ji, who cuts off communication. Yu Ji-won apologizes and leaves abruptly. The next morning, on the exact day the week ended, the Undetaker leaves the guild and finds Noh Do-hwa waiting for him. Her appearance is drastically transformed: her hair is smooth and styled, and she wears a perfectly fitted, designer-made outfit that looks casual yet elegant. She greets him with a shy, genuine smile—a behavior completely alien to her usual cynical self—and asks him to walk and try sangria. The Undetaker is left stunned by her transformation into a beautiful, gentle woman, questioning what has happened to her.
