Chapter 481 — I'm an Infinite Regressor, But I've Got Stories to Tell

Chapter 481

The chapter begins with the Undertaker suffering a sudden, agonizing influx of memories that feel like his head is exploding. Cheon Yo-hwa, who has orchestrated this event by injecting him with the 'bad ending' memories of all his past relationships, watches his physical distress with satisfaction. As the Undertaker writhes on the floor, weeping blood and screaming about loving Sim Ah-ryeon, Cheon Yo-hwa crouches beside him, internally reflecting on the mechanics of the world as a 'dating sim' where early connection dictates victory. She recognizes that by forcing him to relive the affection built in every failed timeline, she has effectively reset the playing field, stripping away the advantage held by those who started closer to him. Cheon Yo-hwa attempts to confess her feelings, believing the timing is perfect while he is vulnerable and isolated. However, the Undertaker interrupts her by covering her mouth with his hand. He admits that while the memories might be illusions or reality, he cannot accept her feelings immediately given his current state of confusion. Instead of a romantic kiss, he presses his lips against the back of his own hand, transmitting the vibration of the kiss through his palm to Cheon Yo-hwa. He asks for time to process the memories, and she silently agrees, her mind reeling from the interaction. She notes that even after giving up her humanity, she is still subject to his unpredictable agency. Afterward, the Undertaker encounters Sim Ah-ryeon in the hallway. They share a hug, discussing their recent traumatic experiences, including her near-death and the strangulation incident. He playfully suggests getting a puppy and asks if she will wait for him while he isolates himself to sort through the memories. She eagerly agrees. The Undertaker then retreats to his guest room to meditate on 'obsession.' He reviews the MAX affection levels he now holds for Noh Do-hwa, Sim Ah-ryeon, Jeong Ye-ji, and others, realizing his love for each is absolute and equal. To test his resolve, he practices an 'NTR Mind Art,' imagining each girl dating someone else. The thought of losing them to others triggers overwhelming jealousy and darkness within him. He realizes that true love in this context is intertwined with obsessive possession. Concluding that he cannot give up any of them, he accepts his identity not as a transcendent immortal, but as a 'crazy obsessive man' committed to living for all of them equally. The chapter ends with him rising from meditation, having solidified a new, terrifying form of devotion.
