Wait what how?!?!?! PLEASE SPOIL MEEEE!!!!!
Spoiler
You mean, this is not the correct 17th timeline like she thought? Then is Terry aware of this(like he has a memory problem or something and thought this is really the 17th timeline) ?
Yes, this is the correct timeline—the 17th timeline. However, it’s unique because the current Ailette exists in it. This is the only 17th timeline where the current Ailette is present.
As for Terry, he regressed from the 117th timeline, traveling through each one to find Ailette. On the 17th timeline alone, he regressed three times:
1.First Regression: He was killed by Reid.
2.Second Regression: After discovering that Ailette wasn’t in this timeline, instead of being killed by Reid, he proceeded to the 18th timeline. By this point, he had already reached his 100th regression, and it was the last time he was still human.
3.Third Regression: He became the current 117th Terry, which is where this timeline, with Ailette, takes place.
Please check other comments for answer.
He’s fully aware of the regressions. The current Thesilid is in his 117th regression, far more advanced than Reid.
Thesilid, at one point, became Reid and attempted to destroy the world, but he failed and was imprisoned by five powerful individuals. Since he cannot die permanently and will just regress, they gave him a punishment: imprisonment in the abyss (or a similar place). There, he was repeatedly killed and brought back to life using the Water of Life—or something similar.
The Water of Life extends a person’s lifespan but shatters their mind, causing severe illusions, memory loss, and other psychological torment.
Thank you for the explanation dear kind fellow reader. Your explanation easy to understand. That punishment seem horribleT_T. Then did Thesillid already finish with his punishment or he escape?
Ailette, the FL, accidentally ended up in the dungeon where Reid was imprisoned after visiting the VIP shop. (Refer to previous chapters) There, she stole the regression artifact (the one that looks like diskette for saving) and unintentionally freed Reid. Shortly after, Reid killed himself. Ailette didn’t realize it was Reid because he was referred to as [Fearless], and she didn’t actually see him as she left the dungeon quickly. After Thesilid (Reid) died, he regressed all the way back to the very beginning.
The repeated use of the Water of Life caused severe side effects, including memory loss. As a result, Thesilid believed this was his very first regression. However, his past self (Reid from the 100th regression) kept appearing and killing him repeatedly.
By the 17th episode, Thesilid and Ailette finally met again. Around this time, he started recovering fragments of his lost memories, though not all of them.
It is quite confusing tbh but I hope you got my point. (￣∇￣")
I’m confused on the difference between regressions and timelines.
Regression means going back to the past, timelines is the amount of times he regressed back.
Your explanation is fine, I understand it perfectly. Thanks a lot for taking your time to explain it. To summarise it,
-Thesilid already went through 100th regression,
-became Reid, attempting to destroy world,
-imprisoned in dungeon(punishment),
-Ailette unintentionally help freed Reid(Thesilid),
-then he regress back to the beginning with memory loss,
-then he meet Ailette again in 17th timeline(while recovering his memories) which is the current timeline in the manhwa now.
Exactly! (づ￣ ³￣)づ
I mean, earlier you listed three regressions and said in the third regression was the 117th terry. Just trying to understand it in my head
its like joongdok all over again
I see. I’m not sure how to explain it , but there’s a spoiler section for the novel, you can Google it. I’m currently past chapter 200 in the novel, and from what I understand, he went back to the 17th timeline three times.
Ikr?
MC thinking the current Terry regressed 17 times but the one on this timeline has already regressed 117 times. So he’s waaaayyy stronger than the evil Terry (antagonist).
