# The main characters only I know episode 339
“A bookmark? “What does that mean?”
Kwon Ji-ah couldn’t understand Jin Cheong-un’s words. What is a codex and what is a bookmark?
Although she had seen more things than others through countless regressions and repeated lives, she had no memories related to the codex. She doesn’t know everything about her, but she knows Qin Qingyun and she can’t possibly not know herself.
Kwon Ji-ah thought that Jin Cheong-woon was waging psychological warfare to sway her mind.
“ah. Are you unaware? Looking at that reaction, it doesn’t seem like he’s pretending not to know even though he knows, and it looks like he really doesn’t know. Confusion of memories? Or did you remove your memories yourself?”
Jin Cheong-un showed a troubled expression, as if he had no idea that Kwon Ji-ah was completely unaware. Wrinkles appeared on Kwon Ji-ah’s forehead.
“… … “I don’t know what you’re talking about, but if you’re trying to shake me up with pointless nonsense, you’re making a big mistake.”
A purple aura rose like a haze around Kwon Ji-ah and wriggled ominously.
Eventually, a mouth appeared from the auror and the teeth clicked together as if they wanted to bite something.
Jin Cheong-un was also familiar with Kwon Ji-ah’s unique predatory aura.
“Just looking at it makes it look bloody. “Where did you learn such skills?”
“There is no need to make a fuss.”
At that time, Ji-ah Kwon leveled the sword and was about to rush towards Jin Cheong-un.
“Returner Kwon Ji-ah. “Aren’t you curious why you keep repeating your life over and over again?”
Rattling!
At Jin Cheong-woon’s words, Kwon Ji-ah seemed to freeze on the spot.
‘You know I’m a regressor?’
The fact that she is a regressor is a secret not told to anyone. The only one who knew that she was a returnee was Yuhyeon.
But at this moment, a second, unexpected person appeared.
Jin Cheong-un. The leader of the global terrorist group Unleashed, and her main enemy who opposes Yuhyeon and seeks to destroy the world.
Kwon Ji-ah’s head was twisted in a complicated way.
“Are you finally ready to talk? Aren’t you curious too? How come when you die, you go back in time and repeat the same life over and over again? “What is the existence of the bookmark that made that possible?”
[Don’t listen.]
That moment.
A voice like that came from somewhere in Kwon Ji-ah’s mind. Don’t listen to those words, hurry and cut off Jin Qingyun’s head.
She doesn’t even know whose voice it is. However, her strong instinct that she should not reject that voice took over her body.
But, more than that, her reason wanted to hear Jin Qingyun’s next words.
I was curious. Why do I regress every time I die, and why do I have to repeat this terrible life and karma?
He has been living a life of repeated failure with the will to prevent the destruction of the Earth, but with Yoohyeon’s help, he has almost achieved that goal. Naturally, Kwon Ji-ah’s consciousness focused on her own power of return.
If the.
‘He died after completely preventing the destruction of the Earth, fulfilling all his wishes, and enjoying a long life. What if it returns again?’
What happens then?
Do we have to repeat this boring process again, starting from the training camp?
Just thinking about the worst situation made cold sweat run down Kwon Ji-ah’s back.
A fear I had forgotten resurfaced.
I had no choice but to admit it.
What she wants is more than to prevent the Earth from ending, it is to break this horrible cycle of life.
“… … “What is a bookmark?”
Sigh.
Jin Cheong-un noticed that Kwon Ji-ah’s mood had calmed down and drew a line around her mouth.
With a light wave of his hand, he pushed back his men who had surrounded Kwon Ji-ah. Eventually, Jin Cheong-un, who confirmed that his men had moved to a distance where they could not hear the two men’s conversation, opened his mouth.
“Let me check one thing first. “Do you know about the codex?”
“Codex?”
“… … Hmm. You really don’t know. “The Book of the Beginning, don’t you know?”
“I’ve never heard of the Book of the Beginning… … “Ugh!”
While speaking, Kwon Ji-ah grabbed her forehead with one hand as the shock penetrated her skull.
The moment she heard the words ‘Book of the Beginning’, her mind started pounding like crazy.
Jin Qingyun watched her attitude with a sinking gaze.
“You sealed your memories yourself.”
“I sealed the memories?”
“okay. I don’t know how many times you’ve lived this life, but if you live that long and repeat life over and over again, an average person would go crazy. As a result, in order to protect one’s own mind, one deliberately erases or seals the memories of the past.”
Jin Cheong-un saw the latter.
If she had completely erased her memories, there was no way she would have felt such a headache. It was a kind of collision effect that appeared because the sealed memories reacted to the keyword, Book of the Beginning.
However, apart from feeling a headache, Kwon Ji-ah’s memories have not yet returned.
‘The level of sealing is very high. ‘Is this because it’s such a great memory?’
Looking at his reaction to the Book of the Beginning, it was clear that Kwon Ji-ah also knew something about the truth of this world.
‘Prition was right.’
He also didn’t know about the existence of a bookmark and its owner. He says that only with her power can this situation be calmed down.
Without Kang Yu-hyeon, who often accompanied Kwon Ji-ah, this was the only opportunity given to Jin Cheong-woon.
“First of all, since you don’t seem to know, I will kindly explain.”
“Explanation, what… … ?”
“The Book of the Beginning.” The original name was Codex. “It is the foundation of the world created by the Logos, a transcendent being that existed long ago, even before this universe was created.”
Jin Cheong-un said so and displayed a piece of the story, a piece of text, on his fingertips.
“Everything in the world is made up of stories. And the most basic outline is composed of text and letters. The reason is because the Logos wrote it as a ‘book’ when it formed this world.”
“Is that book called a codex?”
“okay. The first book ever created. A book that contains the world itself. That’s the codex. And the power you possess is the bookmark used in that codex. For convenience, it is called a bookmark, but those who know it call it the original bookmark.”
“Do you mean I have that bookmark?”

“okay. Don’t ask me why. Because I don’t know that either. However, I do know the power of that bookmark. “The same curse you are experiencing now.”
infinite regress.
Just as a bookmark fixes a page in a book and makes you look at it every time you open it, this power of return that Kwon Ji-ah possesses also made her life always start from the same place.
Her life always had a fixed starting point.
When I die, I always start at the same time, in the same place, and seeing the same people.
This life’s curse was due to the power of bookmarks.
“How can I remove this bookmark?”
“I can’t get rid of it.”
Jin Qingyun’s voice was firm, as if there was no possibility at all.
“That bookmark is no ordinary bookmark. Literally a bookmark used with books from the beginning. The original books and bookmarks, which can be said to be the foundation of this world, will never disappear no matter how much you tear them into pieces. Unless we destroy the world itself.”
In other words, as long as this world remained the same, her life would continue forever.
“But, it’s not like there’s no way. “You can just transfer the ownership of the bookmark to someone else.”
“You can pass it?”
It was something that Kwon Ji-ah could not help but be tempted to do. If there was a way to stop this terrible regression, I wondered if there was anything more valuable than that.
So how?
“Oh, by the way, this is all I can tell you.”
Jin Cheong-un hit the ball before Kwon Ji-ah could get her hopes up.
He wasn’t a philanthropist, and he wasn’t here to tell her the truth.
“If you are curious more than that and want to know how. “Use this.”
Jin Qingyun stretched out his right hand and told a story. I don’t know what kind of story it was, but Kwon Ji-ah sensed that it was not an ordinary story.
But one thing I can be sure of is that if I use it, I can get back all my forgotten memories.
“… … .”
Kwon Ji-ah stared at the story told by Jin Cheong-un with sunken eyes.
* * *
Galiats, who became the managing director of Astro Corporation, broke away from the closet life he had been leading so far and began working in earnest.
“Hehehe. This is true. It’s really nice to meet you. “I never thought I would meet the famous Galliats Teller in person like this.”
A private room where you can have a conversation alone with the Holy Spirit.
Galliats was sitting there facing the Holy Spirit named Gadrius.
It was a Holy Spirit belonging to Daeseonggun Dragonica. Since it is a dragonica that only the Holy Spirit can enter, Gadrius was also a dragon, but his appearance seemed far from a dragon at all.
If you had to compare it, it was closer to a catfish with fat and scales.
“I have also heard of Gadrius’ reputation. “Nice to meet you.”
“kid! I’m done with that stereotype. How busy I am! “Just say business, just say business briefly.”
Even though Gadrius is the Holy Spirit, Galliats is the managing director of Astro Corporation.
Considering that director-level tellers are similar to second-generation Holy Spirits, the actions of Gadrius, who was only of the third generation, were extremely rude.
However, Gadrius did not think he had made a mistake. He was the child of the Green Dragon King, one of the pillars of Dragonica, and was famous in the hybrid world as a rich man with enormous point goods.
Although he is said to be a third-generation Holy Spirit, his power goes beyond that.
Gadrius thought his behavior like this was natural.
“… … All right. Then, I only ask questions clearly.”
Galliats also thought that Gadrius’ behavior was rude, but since that was not the important thing, he decided to turn a blind eye to it for now.
“I heard that you had a meeting with tellers from the Pentagram Department not long ago. And he said he told them a strange fact.”
“Hmm?”
“The rumor about former Deputy Director Kang Yu-hyeon, who has now left the company. A story about how he received a gift from someone who laughs in the darkest places.”
Galliats’ eyes flashed as if they were looking right through Gadrius.
“Who did you hear it from?”
“what… … ?”
“I already know. At least it was Gadrius who informed Demialos, the former head of Pentagram, about that fact. But I was curious about where on earth you heard that, Gadrius.”
Gadrius’ expression suddenly became distorted. The face looked like a wide bowl filled with the filth of unpleasantness.
“hey. “Do you know who I am?”
“Aren’t you the Holy Spirit Gadrius, the child of the Green Dragon King?”
“okay! Even though you know that, are you now raising your eyebrows at me and trying to interrogate me?! “Just a teller!”
Just like a teller.
For Galliats, who had been away from work for a long time, these were the freshest words he had heard in a long time.
“I met you because I heard you were the White Dragon King’s guardian, but you are so arrogant! “How dare a lowly broadcaster or a wandering teller dare to ask a question to the Holy Spirit!”
“Whoa.”
Galliats finally couldn’t hold back and sighed. At that action, Gadrius spat and screamed at his whale.
“Look at this! Sigh?! Are you sighing in front of me now? I’ll tell my father right away and tell him everything related to Astro Corporation just… … !”
“Gadrius.”
“What, what? “Are you just arrogant and calling my name arbitrarily?”
“From now on, I will stop treating you with respect.”
The atmosphere in the private room suddenly sank into the abyss. Gadrius felt the air cool against his skin.
“Well, that’s… … .”
“Do I look like I’m joking?”
Gadrius’ complexion became pale due to the fearsome murderous force emanating from Galliats’ body.
“My story is neither low nor large. Unlike other Holy Spirits, I am a poor person who cannot even maintain an incarnation when he comes to the private room and comes as a main body. “Do you feel like you have achieved anything because you were born well and have lived a well-received life in the third generation, let alone the second generation?”
“Ji, how dare you, the son of the Green Dragon King… … !”
“That damn green dragon king, green dragon king. okay. The Green Dragon King is great. Because it is one of the pillars of Daeseonggun Dragonica. “Gracias, who would have known that this pale-faced kid would become so great?”
“A bird, a bright blue baby?”
Gadrius did not understand Galliats’ behavior in calling his father that way.
There was no way I could understand. Because I couldn’t see for myself how long ago this teller in front of me was active.
If he had known who raised the current White Dragon King Sharuriel, if he had seen it in person, would he have been so shameless in front of Galliats?
Gadrius didn’t know that. Therefore, there was no way that Galiatsu, who openly ignored him and insulted his father to his face, would look good.
“Yes, you! “I will tell everything to my father!”
“Tsk. They say he’s a good watcher, and that’s exactly what he says. “That guy, Gragocia, gave his children a really shitty education.”
“There is nothing I can do about it because I am an abandoned child.”
The voice came from behind Galliats.
When Galliats turned around, a woman with long white hair was walking towards him with light steps.
Galliats said in a grumpy voice.
“Did you forget that this is a private room? “There shouldn’t be two Holy Spirits here.”
“oh. Was there a need to share something like that between us?”
“… … I’ve been snickering quite a lot while I haven’t been able to see you. Sharuriel.”
“Sha, Sharuriel?!”
Gadrius’ mouth opened wide when he heard that name.
How could I not know that name? He is the king of all whites in Daeseonggun Dragonica and a living legend who climbed all the way from the bottom to the title of king.
Sharuriel is the embodiment of such power that even Gadrius, the Green Dragon King’s child, has no choice but to curl his tail and bow his head in front of her.
White Dragon King Sharuriel.
She hugged Galliats from behind, stroking his cheek with one arm.
“So, is this bright blue kid bothering you?”
Her pupils, facing Gadrius, were split vertically.
