Theatrical Regression Life - Chapter 309
Episode 309
Park Da-hoon had a cunning side, but that didn’t mean he was a mature adult. They are students because they are still foolish, dull, and immature. Dayoung Park was like that too.
So I couldn’t always make wise choices.
“Park Dayoung!”
Park Da-hoon, pushed to his limit, found his family.
“Where are you, Park Da-young…!”
I found the only family I had left.
“Sister….”
Help me.
My hands were shaking. Tears were flowing and blocking my vision, and no matter how hard I tried to run, my legs had no strength. Park Da-hoon, who was out of breath in the field because even standing was too much for him, eventually collapsed without being able to climb all the way to the mountain behind him.
“Please help me….”
To him, Park Da-young had a special side, unlike other siblings.
She was the only family I had left. When parents despise and teachers ignore. When his friends pretended not to know him, he was the only person who loved him, looked at him, and remembered him. Even though they were only one year older than me, my older sister was already a great adult to Park Da-hoon.
“…Sister…”
But Park Da-hoon sensed that she could no longer help him.
“….”
Because the place where he sat was littered with monster corpses.
What happened? What happened here? The corpses of pure white plaster monsters were strewn about on the mountain behind the school, which was thick with small trees. They were broken and split to the point where their original forms were unrecognizable, and only one hand, one head, and one leg remained, gradually collapsing like a sand castle.
“…Why the fuck are you doing this to me…”
Park Da-hoon thought of the plaster statues placed all over the school. They were not complete, but were scattered around like heads, hands, and torsos. If the plaster statues were destroyed by someone and only a part of them remained, where did the rest go? For some reason, Da-hoon Park seemed to know the answer.
‘I came here.’
Plaster statues with no heads, no hands, no torsos, came to the mountain behind this place. Those that had been moving around like mayflies stopped working again and collapsed like corpses, and now that Park Da-hoon came, the plaster statue was turning into powder and disappearing little by little. If he had come later, he probably wouldn’t have found any traces of the plaster statue.
So Park Da-young is dead.
“….”
Purple flickered in his eyes.
Park Da-hoon, who had been sitting there shaking for a while, got up.
“…sister.”
I had to find Park Da-young.
‘Plaster monsters don’t eat corpses.’
The plaster monster only committed violence by swinging its hands and feet, and unlike the monsters in the park, it did not eat people. No matter how terrible the body was, Park Da-hoon had to find Park Da-young’s body. That wouldn’t have changed anything, but he instinctively looked for traces of his older sister.
“Sister… Park Da-young. “Where have you gone?”
Just like when I was left alone as a child, I desperately called out to my only family.
“I wonder where everyone has gone….”
It was sad. I was lonely and miserable.
It’s empty.
“….”
And when Park Da-young’s body was eventually found, Park Da-hoon could say nothing more.
‘…Why did it become like this?’
Why did it become like this? Where did I start and what did I do wrong to have to see this horrible scene with my own eyes? Even the agony that struck my brain did not last long and I became unconscious.
It felt like something had snapped.
“….”
“…Dahun.”
“…Uh…”
The owner of the droopy voice, as if he had been drinking water, was Munsan-gun.
“…he was alive.”
“I’m glad I’m alive.”
“….”
I couldn’t answer.
“…Lucky….”
Is it fortunate?
“….”
Really…?
“…What is this? “What is this all about?”
“A monster came.”
“Some…”
“Over there… monsters that look like plaster statues come. “They came and killed all the people.”
“….”
“Me and Dayoung ran away. I went to the garden, reported the work, and called Do-yoon Han…”
“Ah.”
“They’re all dead.”
Munsan’s face was full of tear marks.
“Sorry.”
“…Why Park Da-young?”
“He died.”
“….”
“I’m sorry for living alone…”
Munsan-gun, who was pale and panting, looked truly sad, but Park Da-hoon couldn’t shake off a strange feeling of discomfort. It was probably because it was the first time in this world that I saw someone crying as sadly as Munsan. That was the case except for our students.
How can you cry?
“…Who get out? “Sister…”
When sadness exceeds its limit, it becomes despair, and a person in despair cannot be sad. Park Da-hoon was like that, but Munsan-gun was just crying. He couldn’t take his eyes off the tears of the well-groomed man in front of him. It was amazing that he could cry even after seeing such a true scene.
“My sister died….”
I feel resentful.
“This isn’t because he died from a monster… That’s right.”
“Huh, breath. Hmm…”
“He died himself…!”
Why couldn’t I prevent the death of my family?
“You could have stopped it if you weren’t a monster!”
I am alive like this.
“Why couldn’t I do that one thing?…!!”
My family is dead.
Dayoung Park, whose head had been cut off in half, was holding a saw of an appropriate size in her hand. This is the weapon Vivian brought. Until that person picked up the saw, he probably never thought that the saw would see human blood. The same was true for Da-Hoon Park, and probably Da-Young Park was also the same.
“Noona, noona, noona…!”
“Surp….”
“Aaaah! Park Dayoung wake up! Fuck…! “Get up!”
I couldn’t believe that even Park Da-young left me of her own accord. I was so angry. It was scary, scary, and miserable, and I couldn’t bear it without struggling.
“You shouldn’t do that. If you’re going to do this, why…! Why did you do that! why!”
Did he really think he wouldn’t come back? I thought it would be a little better that way. Even though I knew I would come back alive, if I couldn’t bear it and died first, I would have been so angry that I would have wanted to tear the corpse into pieces. However, Park Da-hoon was already very angry.
“Why me, why me…!”
The void reminded me of the strange nervousness and fear I felt while hiding in school.
“…Why…”
That was the announcement of your death.
“….”
I was so anxious because you died, but I didn’t know that.
After standing still for a while without thinking, Munsan’s cries gradually quieted down. Among them, who had been silent for an unknown amount of time, Park Da-hoon, who sat down next to Park Da-young, was the first to speak.
“…hey.”
“…huh.”
“Are they all dead?”
There was something impulsive about his question as he blinked his purple eyes.
“….”
As if he sensed something, Munsan shed tears again. This time it was a silent cry.
“…huh.”
“….”
Park Da-hoon realized that was a lie.
“…sorry.”
“…are you okay.”
“We’ll meet again later… again.” “I will apologize then.”
“I’m fine….”
“I’m really sorry.”
Park Da-hoon took the saw from Park Da-young’s hand and stood up. He felt uncomfortable with his foolish choice, but he didn’t have time to think about it for too long.
“are you okay.”
“…I….”
“I pity you.”
“….”
“…I’m sorry for being an adult who can’t do anything.”
Munsan-gun also woke up unsteadily.
“I hope you don’t have to struggle for too long.”
“…sorry.”
I also blamed Munsan, who was innocent, for my sister’s death.
“sorry.”
“are you okay.”
“I’m sorry…”
He killed you, who barely survived.
“….”
“….”
For me, who will kill even the young and weak things that remain in the garden.
“Sorry.”
I swung the saw.

Location: On the hillside behind Eonhak High School.
The final deceased was Park Da-hoon.
Third regression in progress.

“No shit.”
Jaeheon Lee muttered.
“There is no such thing as this.”
“Manager….”
“Uncle….”
“Get out of here, you guys, what kind of attachment doll am I? Uh-huh, uh-huh, you can hug whoever you want. Is it off or not? “I’m really going crazy.”
Even though I tried to shake it off by flapping my arms, it didn’t have much effect. Even if it was true for Park Da-hoon, it was a different story when the creepy main character tried to hug him. It was an intolerable insult to have a black adult who was not a child try to be held in my arms.
“There is a limit to how you fuck me, Assistant Manager Jeong.”
“I’m having a hard time.”
“It seems so.”
It’s hard to make a living.
‘How on earth should I fix this?’
Lee Jae-heon, who returned just before entering Unhak High School and gathered in a huddle in front of the school, eventually returned to the shelter with a sullen expression on his face.
“Manager….”
“Uncle….”
“Oh please.”
The chicks’ mentality was extremely damaged.
Kang Min-ah, who had a rough understanding of the situation, was comforting the other confused survivors, but other than her, the others were generally in poor condition. To make matters worse, even Ha Seong-yoon, who was the most cool-headed chick, was in a state of disbelief.
“Uuuuh…”
“…Dayoung, please take your younger brother.”
Da-hoon Park even felt nauseous right after returning.
‘At this rate, I’m glad Kang Min-ah isn’t the last survivor.’
If Kang Min-ah, who accidentally killed all the survivors, was the last survivor, there was a high probability that she would be out of her mind by now. She knew that her nature was not selfish and that she herself was not a very evil person. If she found out that she was the one who caused the chaos in the previous episode, she would have been unable to make a comeback.
“….”
That’s right, Jaeheon Lee had memories of when he became a plaster monster.
“…I’m tired….”
“You look tired. “I’m not sure what the situation is.”
“It looks like he suffered a large-scale mental attack.”
“Is there something like that?”
Lee Jae-heon, who roughly answered the question of Hong Gyeong-jun, who also looked confused, shook off the two returnees Jeong In-ho and Park Da-hoon and swept the corner of his mouth with his other hand. There was a lot to think about.
‘…It’s surprising that he also has memories of becoming a monster.’
When Da-hoon Park first returned, he became a plaster monster, but he was not designated as the last survivor. I guessed that this was because this unknown regression system viewed mutated subjects as dead or monsters. Thinking of it in the same context, I expected that Lee Jae-heon would also have no memories of being a monster after returning.
‘But seeing as he has those memories…’
In the past, Jaeheon Lee defined three types of regressors. Pure returnees like Jeong In-ho and final survivors like Kang Min-a and Park Da-hoon. And lastly, like Ha Seong-yoon, someone who possesses an item that can contain memories before returning… If we had to pick Jae-heon Lee, he would be in the same category as In-ho Jeong.
‘So, if Jung In-ho becomes a plaster monster, will he come back with the same memories as me? First of all, it turned out that the last survivor couldn’t do it. Ha Seong-yoon used a cheat key, so it is difficult to judge… It is difficult to define the system by type.’
Hong Gyeong-jun asked Lee Jae-heon, who was having a hard time.
“…Are you okay?”
“…maybe?”
“I asked because I don’t think so. Da-hoon Park and In-ho Jeong are also taking a break, so it would be a good idea for Jae-heon Lee to sit down as well.”
“Huh.”
I almost felt a little dumbfounded when I panicked right before the regression and the guy who didn’t know what to do was giving advice with a calm face, but Hong Gyeong-jun didn’t know about it, so Jae-heon Lee decided to endure it for once. If possible, I felt like I should treat Hong Kyung-jun kindly so that he doesn’t go crazy and cause chaos like in the previous episode, releasing a plaster monster into the wild.
“Well… I understand.”
“So why did we come back?”
“What should I do? I heard my condition is suddenly bad. “I can’t enter the language school like this, so I need to take a break.”
“What I meant was, why did this happen? Have you unknowingly encountered a monster that mainly attacks your mind? If that’s the case, it’s a big deal…”
“I don’t know that.”
“….”
Hong Gyeong-jun, who was staring at Lee Jae-heon, slightly tilted his head and said.
“Jaeheon Lee’s condition doesn’t look very good either.”
“Is that so?”
“…It would be better to postpone exploring Eonhak High School.”
“I agree.”
After finishing speaking, Jaeheon Lee sat down in a suitable seat.
“….”
It was a place where you could clearly see the crazy regressors.
Jeong In-ho glanced at Lee Jae-heon but couldn’t say anything, and Park Da-hoon, wondering what on earth he had done, was crying profusely, clutching his older sister. Yoon Gar-ram restlessly stayed by the side of Ha Seong-yoon, whose expression had disappeared, and Kang Min-ah and Park Da-young, who knew the existence of the returnee. could not hide his anxious expression.
“…Ha….”
I tried to go back quickly because I didn’t know what was going on in reality.
“That’s bad.”
Escape and even immediate survival seemed difficult.
