(EP-88.1) Club #7

088 – Adventure Club #7

The book Marmar gave me had the words:

「Adventure Club 5th Activity Report: Theo Gospel and Priga Nightfall.」

‘Theo Gospel?’

Wasn’t that my name!?

Of course, the name ‘Theo’ was also rather common, so we couldn’t rule out the possibility that it was just some person who had the same name as me. But the ‘Priga Nightfall’ written next to it, as I recalled, was probably….

As I was thinking, Kalira looked at the dusty cover and said.

“Priga Nightfall, that’s the name of the Saintess of the Gwangyeom Church. What is going on?”

In contrast to Kalira’s disbelief, Marmar responded in awe.

“Saintess? Are you saying that she and comrade have known each other for a long time? Comrade is amazing! Like I thought, you’re no ordinary person!”

Marmar’s conjecture made sense.

The original owner of this body, ‘Theo Gospel’, and Saintess Priga might’ve been related in some way.

But the Saintess acted as if she had never seen me before when we met during the day of the entrance ceremony.

Besides, this was a 20 year old record…

What could have happened?

“For now, let’s look for other books. If you find anything with my name on it, please bring it to me.”

Perhaps the key to my missing memories, before I woke up in a cage as a slave, lays here.

The name ‘Theo Gospel’ was like a blank sheet of paper, with no information in Angmar. Who would’ve thought that I’d find a clue in a far away foreign country.

“Comrade, your name is written on here as well. T.G. aren’t these the initials for Theo Gospel?”

“It’s here too.”

There were quite a few books and documents with my name in this adventure club room.

It would be nice to open and read them one by one here, but unfortunately we didn’t have enough time today.

Whoooooo-.

Plus, the gloomy evening wind was blowing from the open door in the basement. I definitely wouldn’t want to spend the night in a place like this!

“Let’s go back for now, take only what you can. We’ll just come back tomorrow.”

As for me, I decided to bring back the book with the Saintess’ and my name.

* * *

As we climbed up the ladder, the sun was setting and the evening seemed imminent. It was probably around 5pm now.

If we had stayed a little longer in the basement, we really might have had to sleep here.

What could be more s†upid than spending the night in some ruin?

Plus, it was an abandoned building where real nocturnal spiders, not just hallucinations, could appear in the evening.

“Once we get out of the woods, we’ll have dinner together. Marmar, don’t sleep in the forest tonight, just in case. Lady Kalira, are you okay with that?”

“I’ll follow your arrangements.”

Kalira lowered her head, seemingly holding back a chuckle. Meanwhile, Marmar clicked her tongue, not wanting to spend the night with Kalira.

I said to Marmar.

“And Marmar. From now on, instead of living in the forest, I’ll move you to a proper residence. It would be bad if you’re constantly eating hallucinogens.”

“Are you telling me to leave my house? But I’m just starting to get used to it…. I even worked hard to decorate the interior….”

I thought Marmar would be happy, but surprisingly, her reaction was rather lukewarm. I guessed it was a bit regrettable for her to just leave the home she built with time and affection.

“We can use it as our base of operations. There is no one around. It’s quiet and perfect for a secret base.”

“Hmm, okay.”

Only then did Marmar nod her head.

At this time, something like white threads kept falling on Marmar’s hair.

“What is this annoying thing?”

Marmar tried to get rid of the sticky thread. However, the more she pulled, the more it got tangled in her hair and clothes.

“Why do I feel light? Is this spider web? I’m not the only one seeing this, am I?”

“I see it too. What is it?”

Seuk-.

“No-.”

When I involuntarily raised my head, there was a giant spider hanging upside down on the outer wall of the building, spinning a thread with its slender legs…

It was as large as an adult tiger, with terrifying black stripes on a yellow background at the back, making it really look like a tiger-spider…

━Creuuuuung…!

The cursed beast then opened its terrifying mouth and let out a beastly roar.

Seeing this, Marmar merely smiled.

“I guess I’m still hallucinating! I see a big spider!”

Marmar was soon dragged up toward the spider like a fish caught in a fishing line. Trapped by the spider’s front leg, she began to struggle.

“This hallucination feels so real… Hey, look, it looks so scary!”

Marmar giggled as if she was taking a p¡ss on a non-scary horror movie. However, I simply couldn’t laugh.

Hallucination?

Didn’t the hallucinations end with the antidote earlier?

While still deep in thoughts, I suddenly noticed Kalira pulling something from her waist next to me. It was a long, thin whip.

“Get away, Theo. That’s not a hallucination. That’s a real spider!”

“A real spider?”

“It’s some kind of tiger-spider! Its fangs can be used medicinally, but I have never seen such a large one!”

This was not a hallucination…

Hearing this, Marmar’s smile gradually turned into genuine fear.

“Save me! I thought it was a hallucination! Why me-.”

Marmar was curled up into a cocoon like a butterfly caught by a spider.

─Paimon-!

Paaang-!

I quickly casted a spell to save Marmar. My magic flew like a bullet from a shotgun, smashing the exterior walls of the building and the body of the spider.

━Creuuuuung-!

The giant tiger-spider loudly roared. It looked quite p¡ssed at me…

The beast then proceeded to jump down and rushed towards me. It must be really angry about dropping Marmar’s cocoon.

Worse still, the cursed thing was really fast, uncharacteristic of its huge body.

I heard that some spiders could move fast enough to hunt cockroaches, and this might be that kind of spider.

“What-!”

Surprised, I took a step back but tripped and fell to the ground.

Seureung-!

The monster then raised its bladed front leg towards me.

Wiririk, jjak-.

━Keeeeeeeeek-!
