Chapter 420 — I'm an Infinite Regressor, But I've Got Stories to Tell

Chapter 420

In the Busan Station Tutorial Dungeon waiting room, the Undertaker reflects on the 1,085th cycle of his plan to seal the world's anomalies by infecting them with the World Tree Udumbara. Having lived through Go Yuri’s billion lives to erase his own identity as a regressor, he now exists as 'human' Go Yuri within his own memory. While billions of fragmented Go Yuris chatter and debate how to select a single representative for his reality, the Undertaker remains calm, focused on his goal. However, he notices the absence of Oh Dok-seo, the author who must write his life story to complete the sealing process. He experiences the five stages of grief across multiple cycles (1,086–1,088+): denial that she is dead, anger at her recklessness, fear of external interference (like the Admin of the Infinite Metagame), bargaining to prioritize her romance with Noh Do-hwa, and finally acceptance that she chose not to save him. Go Yuri explains that Dok-seo, as a Possessor, lacks the regressor’s bond of shared memory; she viewed him as a stranger in a book. Despite this low probability, Dok-seo bet her life on him, an 'abnormal' miscalculation. The Undertaker realizes he lacks the talent to save her through time manipulation, accepting that he must wait for her to become strong on her own. He reflects on how waiting is unfamiliar to regressors, who are used to being waited for. He recalls his hope that Dok-seo reads his prophecy book to gain his experiences and strength. As cycles pass, allies like Yu Ji-won and Cheon Yo-hwa die prematurely, and the Void triggers early elsewhere, disrupting his predicted history. Go Yuri notes that while everyone dies trying to save him, leaving him alone in a destroyed world, Dok-seo might survive as the sole witness. The chapter concludes with the Undertaker finally understanding Go Yuri’s gamble and waiting patiently for Dok-seo, who is now approaching him.
