Chapter 7 — I'm an Infinite Regressor, But I've Got Stories to Tell

Chapter 7

In the fifth-cycle flashback, the narrator reveals himself to Seo Gyu as a regressor who has lived through approximately fifty prior cycles, recruiting only proven geniuses each time. He identifies Seo Gyu, the sole survivor of Busan Station's waiting room who never appeared in previous loops, as an unprecedented 'unscratched lottery ticket.' The narrator introduces Seo Gyu’s latent ability, formerly described as limited website management, as [Ubiquitous]—an S-class power allowing the creation of a persistent, permission-based digital domain accessible anywhere. Seo Gyu initially undervalues his power, considering it useless in combat and aesthetically inferior to older web designs. The narrator explains its strategic necessity: as societal chaos intensifies and external communications fail, a Constellation-backed platform will become the sole link for awakened individuals to maintain sanity and coordinate. They travel to the Saintess’s aquarium-themed temple to present the plan. She immediately recognizes the utility of collecting user data and controlling communication channels. Seo Gyu learns the Constellations are merely the narrator’s fictional constructs and reacts with shock and skepticism but ultimately agrees to cooperate under the narrator’s guidance. The trio spends fifteen days developing the site, debating names before settling on 'SG Net,' a triple-entendre referencing Seo Gyu, the narrator’s nickname 'SG,' and 'Star’s Ground.' They disguise the site as a Constellation-mandated community. Upon launch, the narrator instructs the Saintess to broadcast a system notification summoning all active Korean awakeners. The influx is instantaneous, with Seo Gyu watching in astonishment as user numbers skyrocket. To convert anonymous visitors into registered members, the narrator has Seo Gyu post an announcement promising unlimited access for members versus a one-hour limit for non-members, framing community activity as 'faith' that empowers the 'constellation.' Leveraging endorsements from other known Constellations like the Chancellor of the Red Cape, skepticism dissolves, and registrations surge. Seo Gyu enthusiastically records member data, unaware of the narrator’s deeper manipulative intent. The cycle concludes with the narrator’s reflection on the significance of saving Seo Gyu in this iteration, followed by a sudden transition back to the present timeline. The narrator wakes to the familiar, angry shouting of Emit Schopenhauer, signaling the start of a new loop with the crucial advantage of the SG Net infrastructure already established in the previous cycle's history.
