Chapter 75 — I'm an Infinite Regressor, But I've Got Stories to Tell

Chapter 75

The chapter opens with the MC reflecting on his preference for alien invasion and disaster movies, such as 'War of the Worlds' and 'Mars Attacks!', noting that their historical inaccuracy—lacking real-world elements like Awakeners—makes them enjoyable fantasy rather than realistic thrillers. Sim Ah-ryeon and Seo Gyu critique these films for their logical flaws, such as aliens failing to scout Earth or having flimsy lower bodies easily cut by aura blades. The MC contrasts this with 'Annihilation,' which he feels accurately depicts the void, before introducing the 'Achilles Cliché': the trope where invincible aliens possess a specific, often ridiculous weakness. He notes that real anomalies rarely offer such mercy, though rare exceptions exist. The narrative shifts to a recollection from the 98th cycle. A meteor shower, coinciding with the continent-class anomaly 'Meteor Shower' ravaging South Gyeongsang Province, drew attention when a specific object fell into the Yamato Basin of the East Sea. Initially dismissed as a regular rock or a recurrence of the anomaly, the event was largely ignored by the busy MC until he visited Kanazawa, Japan, for a meeting with the Magical Girl Association. While walking the beach at night with a Magical Girl representative—a woman in a frilly goth-lolita outfit carrying a black umbrella—the group spotted the falling object. The Magical Girl identified it as a 'UFO' or 'flying saucer,' prompting the Association to launch a serious investigation. The Association, a massive faction operating thirteen modified aircraft carriers, deployed the 'White Blossom' to the site. The MC joined the team, leveraging his status as 'Undateikeo.' Inside the submerged UFO, the team used poetic magic to illuminate the flooded, maze-like corridors filled with a gasoline-like smell. Telepathic magic revealed no life signs, only machines. The MC detected a physical object ahead and tapped it with his sword. He announced that the occupants were dead. Inside the craft, over 120 alien corpses were found, melted beyond recognition. The cause of their death remained unknown, leaving the incident unsolved. Intrigued by the mystery of superior technology failing without human intervention, the MC returned in the 99th cycle. He negotiated with the Magical Girl Association, trading future help with the Inunaki subjugation in exchange for the use of their primary aircraft carrier, the 'White Blossom,' to investigate the crash site from the moment of impact.
