Chapter 459 — I'm an Infinite Regressor, But I've Got Stories to Tell

Chapter 459

The chapter opens with a domestic scene at Guild Azit, where Sim Ah-ryeon sits on the Undertaker's lap, asking him to brush her hair. The Undertaker uses his precise aura to wash, condition, and dry her hair, a convenient service he provides in exchange for her ignoring others, reinforcing the social isolation rule of 'if you ignore others, others will ignore you.' Suddenly, the [Time Stop] ability activates, freezing Sim Ah-ryeon mid-laugh. With time halted, the Saintess (Jeong Ye-ji), who had approached silently, engages in a secret romantic encounter with the Undertaker. They share kisses and intimate moments, having agreed to keep their relationship hidden to avoid shocking their companions, particularly given the Regression Alliance's fragility. Their romance relies heavily on [Time Stop], which allows them to extend their interactions indefinitely without others noticing. This pattern repeats during serious meetings; even when Yu Ji-won and Noh Do-hwa are present, the couple utilizes the frozen time to hold hands and kiss under the table, oblivious to Yu Ji-won’s stunned reaction as she turns gray and black from the shock. Eventually, they decide to stop hiding, finding their love too significant to conceal, and enjoy a prolonged romantic moment during a thirty-five-minute meeting that feels much longer to them. After the meeting, Sim Ah-ryeon confronts the couple, questioning if they are dating. The Undertaker and Saintess bribe her into silence to prevent a scandal. Later, at a beach at sunset, with time still stopped, the couple reflects on their bond, noting their shared isolation and inability to connect with others. They consider a desperate solution to prevent the impending world annihilation: to keep [Time Stop] active indefinitely, effectively pausing the end of the world for their own sake, accepting it as a selfish loophole. The Saintess expresses her love and desire to stay in this cycle. However, the mood shifts when the Saintess leaves to get ice cream and returns immediately, but with a disturbingly wide, unnatural smile and a voice devoid of human tone. The Undertaker senses an anomaly and attacks, but he is effortlessly overpowered by the doppelgänger. The entity reveals it has 'eaten' the real Saintess’s name and is now replacing her. It forces a red liquid upon the Undertaker, revealing itself to be Go Yuri. Go Yuri mocks the Undertaker’s intuition and declares their love forbidden. As the Undertaker’s vision fades from the forced ingestion, he realizes he cannot save the world but is comforted that the last face he sees is that of his love, albeit an imposter. The chapter ends with the Undertaker’s death and Go Yuri’s final message: 'That Woman J. Fin.'
