(EP.379) Survivor of Goseong #5
379 – Old Castle Survivor #5
Mirna silently read down the squiggly letters on the notebook.
If she had taken a course on ancient slang at the church’s educational facility, Ark, she would be able to understand the letters written in the notebook.
“What does it say?”
She answered my question that was asked again.
“Tae.”
“Tae?”
“It is written that way. If you read it literally, yes.”
Taorani. it was my name A notebook found in a fortress occupied and abandoned by demons. It’s a bit surprising that my name is written there.
Maybe Isaiah Gospel, who was the owner of the notebook, knew I was coming to this place? Then Mirna shook her head.
“But it probably doesn’t mean Sir Tae-oh’s name. In the first place, the word Tae-oh in the ancient language has only one meaning.”
“What is it?”
“It’s God. This notebook was named God in the old language. I don’t know what it is, but it may contain some pretty important information.”
Shh.
Mirna opened the leather cover of the notebook with a leaning expression.
But soon a bit of embarrassment spreads on her face. Narmi, who looked at the notebook together, said.
“Everything has spread! That’s why I don’t even know what’s written on it.”
As Narmi said, the notes seemed to have been written with ink or ink. It spread strangely, as if it had been washed away by rainwater.
It’s a notebook that has been left behind for more than a dozen years in a fortress full of demons. It was not surprising that the letters were not preserved. Now that I see, the side where the note was found was very wet and had a musty smell.
said Narmi.
“It was an abandoned notebook in a place like this in the first place. There wouldn’t be much important stuff written on it. What did you expect in the first place?”
I pondered for a moment what I was expecting from that question. I thought maybe that leather notebook was something like Isaiah Gospel’s diary.
What was he thinking when he came this far?
Why did they hide in this Gargata Fortress, which must have been full of monsters?
And where else did you go after leaving this imp?
I wondered if there was a reason for that. It may also contain a story about the nymph Beatrice he met, or the child born between them.
However, it will be difficult to read without restoring it only when it gets wet so much.
flash.
As I was thinking about it, it felt like a lightning bolt struck my head.
So, after receiving the note from Mirna’s hand, I moved on. I thought I knew who I had to take this to so that they could know the contents.
She once read a book that I had burned down. If that’s the case, it’ll be much easier than recovering a burnt paper with just wet and smeared ink.
Obviously it is possible
So I stood in front of Aira’s door again. Now it’s almost one o’clock in the afternoon. I wondered if Aira would have woken up.
In order to meet the queen, she shakes off the dust on her body and then clears her voice by coughing. Then he knocked on the door with his finger.
“Ira-sama, are you awake?”

Crumble.
Then, this time, I felt a presence inside the room.
-Come in.
At last, when the doorknob was opened with a light hand, the door opened quickly.
Inside, Ira in her underwear was still lying on the bed. Is it like the mind is awake but the body still wants to lie down?
I walked towards Ira.
Aira then points to a water bottle placed nearby. Knowing what that meant, I sipped the water into a cup near the water bottle and handed it to Aira.
Shh.
“… … .”
The Queen accepted the glass of water without saying a word. She immediately brought her pale cherry-colored lips to the glass and drank the water from it.
It was amazing because it looked like a water purifier or drink CF just by drinking water. Aira, who put the glass nearby, said after a moment’s attention was taken from the scene.
“So, why did you come to me?”
“I, that’s it.”
I tell Aira about the imp I found and its owner. And he briefly explained the notes he left behind.
* * *
“That’s how it happened.”
It was such a simple situation that there was not much to explain.
However, Ira’s eyebrows narrowed slightly whether she didn’t understand what I was saying or if there was something she didn’t like.
“I see. I thought I came here to continue what I did before without fail.”
“Something from before?”
When I asked, Aira spread her hands in the air and clasped them as if they were grabbing something.
As if touching a woman’s breasts, I knew what she was trying to say. You seem to think I’m here to touch your breasts.
Suddenly, expectations skyrocket.
“Is that okay?”
“Then show me where the book is.”
Ira simply ignored my words. Does that mean no? It felt like the expectations that had been building up to my head were falling back down to the soles of my feet. Ai is pretty good at lifting and releasing people.
Maybe this is push and pull?
Indeed, I began to sympathize with how many men must have soared into the sky in front of the push and pull of a beautiful woman and then plummeted to the ground.
Maybe that’s why Aira’s relaxed face is like, ‘I’m holding on to my relationship with you. You are below me,’ he seemed to be overflowing with himself.
You’re looking at me one step lower than yourself.
Thinking like that, I was determined to one day see Aira’s face filled with shame and gasping for breath.
But.
First of all, the book should be shown first. He hands the book he pulled out into Aira’s hand. Dusty leather cover. Ira glanced at it back and forth.
👌👌👌👌
Finally, Ira turned over the leather cover and turned the bookshelf inside it one by one. As the ink smeared here and there could be seen between Aira’s fingers, she said softly.
“It’s an old book.”
“Can you read it? In the past, it was said that letters contain meaning and will. You can read the will even from the burned books. Wouldn’t it be possible even with wet letters?”
“Who do you think I am? These letters are easy to read. But if I read to you, Tae-oh, what can you do for me?”
“Am I?”
The sudden question made me feel like there was something like Styrofoam stuck in my esophagus. Aira is asking me for a price. It was the first time in her fickle journey.
she explained
“The most important thing in a spouse’s relationship is giving and receiving. That’s how we can maintain a healthy and healthy relationship.”
“okay.”
It was something that seemed to make a lot of sense. Appreciation for actions increases when there is something that goes back and forth.
Was Ira also seriously thinking about her married life with me? Or, is this a simple push-and-pull?
I asked.
“What would you like me to do?”
“nothing. i am the queen All about Angmar. All the treasures and wealth and honor and beauty of the world are mine. So there is no shortage. I don’t need a reply.”
Saying that, Aira’s expression looked very proud.
… So, what are you going to do?
After asking for something in return, you don’t need anything in return?
Although we have been talking face-to-face for years, I still can’t understand Aira’s heart. It’s difficult.
🤩🤩🤩🤩
Aira started turning the pages quickly. Then something quite surprising happened. It can be seen that the letters are clearly restored one by one on the crumpled paper.
Although her personality is a bit eccentric, Ira’s magic skills were also amazing.
palak.
Finally, Ira completely restored all the characters.
After taking the book from her, I opened it and saw the letters in handwriting that were clear enough for me to understand. At that moment, I felt the paper spider Bael quivering inside me.
ㅡHyo… !
I know. The handwriting is exactly the same as that of Solomon’s journal that you showed me in the past. Isaiah and Solomon appear to be very similar to each other, so that it can be said that they are the same person.
“So, what is written on it?”
At Aira’s question, I read the letters from the first chapter.
* * *
there is no content
That’s my first impression.
I noticed while reading the recovered letters. This book was like a notepad on which I wrote miscellaneous things.
Things about the habits and geography of the monsters living nearby. Or a scheduler where you write down what you did today and what you need to do. Or even a diary.
Any more interesting information? As I was thinking about it, the more I turned to the back page, the more I could see that strange things were written on it.
“The further back you go, the more the sentences don’t connect. Is it correct that you restored it well?”
Aira nodded lightly at my question.
“Yeah, that’s how it was originally written.”
Was it written like this from the beginning? There are many parts where the upper and lower sentences do not connect, or there are places where words are blank. Did you write this on purpose?

Cryptogram?
silkygoat was the goat. cry
No, I quickly figured out that this resembled some kind of schizophrenic record. The further one goes to the back, the more the author’s mind seems to be getting more and more bizarre.
Ira said.
“I guess. The status of the author cannot be said to be normal. I felt something that could be called a kind of paranoia or delusion. A curse that flows in the blood of Angmar.”

Curse
I suddenly wondered.
“Why are the people of the Angmar family going crazy all of a sudden?”
Then Aira looked at me with thin eyes.
“Well, you would know better. Teo Gospel of Angmar.”
“Am I?”
“They see what others cannot see and hear what others cannot hear. Say you saw things you shouldn’t see and heard things you shouldn’t have heard. Tae-oh, aren’t you too?”
“I do not know… .”
“The Angmars called it a revelation. That made them kings. I ended up turning him into a madman. A constant whisper in my head. That’s their rookie.”

God.
I suddenly remembered that the title of this notebook was a word that meant God. Was it a book of Revelation written by a madman? Somehow it gets creepy Do the people of the Gwangyeom Church know about this?
The Angmar family and the Light Flame Church shared the fate of their birth. Who do I need to meet to ask this question? theologians? high priest?
As she was thinking about it, Aira stood up.
“Then, I must get a reply now.”
“Didn’t you say earlier that you don’t need a return?”
“I have changed my mind.”
