Chapter 8 — Regression Is Too Much

Chapter 8

Kim Jun-ho regresses to the start of Floor 0, where a sprite-like guide delivers a briefing. He automatically repeats his routine speech to rally the crowd, then trains under Choi Ji-won. After taking damage and regressing again, he laughs maniacally mid-swing. Ji-won observes him, commands him to get up, and delivers blunt coaching feedback, noting his moves are merely 'not bad.' Jun-ho collapses in despair, realizing his ordinary limits. Ji-won converses with her sentient sword, Bung-bung, who points out that Jun-ho's sluggishness is an illusion caused by her newly sharpened senses. Realizing she misjudged him, Ji-won prepares to apologize, but Jun-ho self-harms and regresses once more. This time, he resolves to do nothing and laze around. He ignores the guide, watches a middle-aged man dig, and interacts briefly with nearby players. Choi Cheol-sun leads the group away to find water. Ji-won returns with food, and Jun-ho peacefully eats a calorie bar, testing whether the clearing is truly a safe zone.
