Chapter 421 — I'm an Infinite Regressor, But I've Got Stories to Tell
Chapter 421
The chapter opens with the Undertaker observing a trail leading to Cheon Yo-hwa's cult headquarters, noting the footprints of Yu Ji-won, Jeong Ye-ji, Oh Dok-seo, and Lee Ha-yul. He discovers the corpse of Oh Dok-seo, which is only half-intact, but contains a suicide note. The narrative shifts to the content of this note, written by Oh Dok-seo. In it, she reveals that she has survived numerous cycles and, unlike the reincarnator Go Yuri, she refused to accept Go Yuri's solution of sacrificing Dang Seo-rin to Hecate. Dok-seo states she saved Dang Seo-rin, stripping her of her divine powers to make her an ordinary person, a choice she views as superior to Go Yuri's isolation. She criticizes Go Yuri's reliance on Jeong Ye-ji and Yu Ji-won, calling their personalities toxic. She then addresses Go Yuri directly, rejecting his god-like status and asserting that her life does not need to end to seal him. She declares her intent to save Dang Seo-rin and live her own life, viewing Go Yuri’s path as incomplete because it required the loss of Seo-rin. The note concludes with a prayer for her child (Dok-seo) to find happiness, rejecting the idea of becoming a tragic god-figure that burdens the living with regret. The perspective returns to the Undertaker, who reflects on his and Go Yuri’s shared belief in their own righteousness and the beauty of their intertwined paths. He recognizes that Oh Dok-seo is right to challenge his finality, as his version of the world offers no room for her to write her own truth. He prays to Go Yuri, now addressed as 'God,' that his daughter may live a happy life free from the weight of his sacrifice. Go Yuri, listening, realizes he has found a way to bloom the Udumbara flower, a rare phenomenon, proving he remains human despite his accumulated power. He questions if Dok-seo can find a better solution. The chapter ends with the Undertaker waiting in the dark, empty waiting room of Busan Station. After a long silence, a door opens, and Oh Dok-seo enters, having cut her long black hair back to her signature red, holding scissors. She declares herself Go Yuri's salvation, ready to record his story as a 'wrong answer' in her own narrative.
