(TL: The Hanja "轉" is literally "turn/revolve" in isolation; however, it's actually the third letter of the 'kishotenketsu/gi-seung-jeon-gyeol', a classic narrative structure of East Asian literature. This letter signifies "twist" or, in a more modern context, "climax" of the narrative.)
汉字的字面意思是“旋转/旋转”;然而，它实际上是东亚文学经典叙事结构“kishotenketsu/gi-seung-jeon-gyeol”的第三个字母。这个字母意味着“扭曲”，或者，在更现代的语境中，意味着叙述的“高潮”。)
Every muscle on my body ached as if I had been thoroughly beaten up.
我身上的每一块肌肉都在疼痛，好像我已经被彻底打得遍体鳞伤。
I had blacked out for a second but regained my consciousness somehow. I vomited out Fables and opened my eyes within the pitch-black empty space. I couldn't see a single thing nearby, but I already knew where I was.
我昏过去了一会儿，但不知怎么地又恢复了知觉。我吐出了寓言，在漆黑的空间里睁开了眼睛。我看不到附近的任何东西，但我已经知道我在哪里。
['Indescribable Distance' is glancing at you.]
[“难以描述的距离”在瞥你。]
The 'Indescribable Distance', also known as the Nameless Mist.
无法描述的距离，也被称为无名雾。
I ran into this guy's clone back in the 73rd Demon World.
我在第73个恶魔世界碰到了这个家伙的克隆人。
With nothing but the strength of a clone, this guy destroyed my Demon World, and went on to break Fable-grade Constellations and Transcenders alike.
除了克隆人的力量，这个家伙什么都没有，他摧毁了我的恶魔世界，并且继续打破了寓言级的星座和超越者。
And here I was, right inside the mouth of one Calamity that I dearly wished not to meet again.
我就在这里，就在一场灾难的口中，我非常希望再也不要见到它。
⸢Kim Dok-Ja thought to himself. This is the only way to stop the Apocalypse Dragon.⸥ ….Right. I was wondering why you were keeping quiet until now.
金道子心里想。这是阻止天启龙的唯一方法。对。我还在想你为什么一直保持沉默直到现在。
⸢In order to stop the world's calamity, summon yet another one. Only someone like the Regressor Yu Jung-Hyeok might come up with such an idea.⸥
为了阻止世界的灾难，再召唤一个。只有像回归者于正赫(音译)这样的人才会有这样的想法。
I looked at the 4th Wall's messages floating up in the air and chuckled wryly.
我看着飘浮在空中的第四道墙的信息，挖苦地笑了起来。
⸢Even then, Kim Dok-Ja simply had to do it.⸥
即便如此，金道子还是不得不这么做
The effects from the storm of aftermaths still lingered in my vicinity.
后遗症带来的暴风雨的影响仍在我附近徘徊。
- You have distorted far too much Probability.
你扭曲了太多的可能性。
- You keep this up, and all the Probability's karma you've accumulated so far will blow up in your face. You know what that means, don't you?
如果你继续这样下去，到目前为止你积累的所有可能性业力都会在你面前爆炸。你知道这意味着什么，对吧？
This was the Probability's karma that I had been accumulating until now. The retribution that Constellations and Dokkaebis had warned me about.
这就是我一直积累到现在的可能性业力。星座和多卡比斯警告过我的报应。
⸢There is no Fable where something precious hasn't been lost.⸥
没有一个寓言故事说的是珍贵的东西没有丢失
Every large, great Fable found in <Star Stream> was a story of loss.
每一个大的，伟大的寓言发现在星流是一个失去的故事。
In order to awaken a hero, something must be sacrificed, while lovers and friends must lose something when trying to fulfil their love or friendship.
为了唤醒一个英雄，必须牺牲一些东西，而情人和朋友在试图实现他们的爱情或友谊时，必须失去一些东西。
Someone had to lose something, and with that, Fables would become complete.
必须有人失去一些东西，有了这些，寓言就完整了。
⸢Kim Dok-Ja hated that.⸥
金道子不喜欢这样
I knew that one day, I'd be paying the price for not losing out on anything. That the time to pay for twisting stories around and distorting the Probability would arrive sooner or later.
我知道总有一天，我会为没有失去任何东西而付出代价。为扭曲事实和歪曲事实的可能性付出代价的时刻迟早会到来。
⸢And that was why Kim Dok-Ja decided to use that.⸥
这就是为什么KimDok-Ja决定使用它
Tsu-chuchuchuchut!
楚楚楚！
More lumps of Fable poured out of my mouth.
更多的寓言从我嘴里涌出。
This wasn't because the 'Indescribable Distance' attacked me; no, it was the distorted Probability's fault. The distortions of the world, saved up for the purpose of summoning an Outer God, was trying to eliminate me from the scenario itself.
这不是因为无法描述的距离攻击了我，不，这是扭曲的概率的错误。这个扭曲的世界，为了召唤一个外在的上帝而储存起来，试图把我从这个情节本身中排除出去。
[Fable, 'Demon King of Salvation', is continuing with its storytelling.]
[寓言《救恩之魔王》继续讲述故事。]
I managed to endure only because of my Fables. They continued to whisper into my ears - they said that you're the 'Demon King of Salvation'. You must save people.
因为我的寓言故事，我才得以忍受。他们继续在我耳边低语——他们说你是‘救世魔王’。你必须拯救人们。
Just like how they did to Metatron and Agares, Fables were whispering to me.
就像他们对Metatron和阿加勒斯所做的一样，寓言对我低语。
[Fable, 'King of Kingless World', is continuing with its storytelling.] [Great Fable, 'Demon World's Spring', is continuing with its storytelling.] [Great Fable, 'Torch that Swallowed the Myth', is continuing with its storytelling.]
[寓言《无王世界之王》继续讲述它的故事][伟大的寓言，‘魔鬼世界的春天’，正在继续它的故事。][《伟大的寓言》，《吞噬神话的火炬》继续讲述它的故事。]
Even though I was inside the quaking fog of darkness, I still could sense what was happening outside.
即使我在黑暗的雾气中，我仍然可以感觉到外面发生了什么。
['Final Dragon of the Book of Apocalypse' is baring its animosity towards the 'Indescribable Distance'!]
[“末日之书最后的龙”正在向“难以描述的距离”暴露它的敌意!]
['Indescribable Distance' is making its move.]
[“难以描述的距离”正在行动。]
Thankfully, everything was unfolding according to the plan. The Outer God showing up to devour me had discovered an even tastier prey and it was now far too focused on preying on the 'Final Dragon of the Book of Revelation'.
谢天谢地，一切都按照计划展开了。出现吞噬我的外神发现了一个更美味的猎物，现在它太专注于捕食启示录的最后龙了。
The fight between Calamities had begun. The Final Dragon versus the Nameless Mist.
灾难之间的战斗已经开始了。最后的龙对无名雾。
These two's mutual destruction was the hope of all the other existences.
这两者的相互毁灭是所有其他存在的希望。
The most important thing was to buy enough time. Enough time for the Constellations to reorganise themselves, for those damn stars to reform the nebulas befitting their lofty titles.
最重要的是争取足够的时间。有足够的时间让星座重组自己，让那些该死的星星改造与他们崇高头衔相称的星云。
[Damage to your Incarnation Body is critical!]
[对你的化身身体的伤害是至关重要的!]
[Indescribable existence's Status is eating into your 'Context of Modifier'.]
[难以形容的存在状态正在吞噬你的修饰语上下文]
[Unity between Fables is weakening.]
[寓言之间的统一性正在减弱。]
[<Star Stream> is stunned by your extraordinary achievement.]
[星流被你非凡的成就震惊了。]
[Your own Great Fable is waking up.]
(你自己的伟大寓言正在苏醒。)
I heard something faintly resembling a song from afar.
我听到远处隐约传来类似一首歌的声音。
It was a melody I heard a long time ago. I wasn't sure whether that was my mother's, from my comrades, or from someone else.
这是我很久以前听到的一个旋律。我不确定那是我母亲的，还是我的同志的，还是别人的。
Except that, as I listened to that faint song….
除此之外，当我听着那微弱的歌声..。
[Fable, 'Comrade of Life and Death', is continuing with its storytelling.] ….I realised that I didn't want to die.
[寓言《生死同志》继续讲故事]......我意识到我不想死。
*
Ku-gugugugu!
咕咕咕咕！
One world was colliding with another. Kim Dok-Ja, completely exposed to the Apocalypse Dragon's shockwave, was swallowed up by the jet-black fog of darkness.
一个世界与另一个世界发生碰撞。金道子，完全暴露在启示龙的冲击波之下，被漆黑的黑暗迷雾所吞噬。
And now, it was no longer him dealing with the shockwave, but that horrifying Outer God, instead.
现在，他不再是在处理冲击波，而是那个可怕的外神。
The two powers born from Chaos collided, and everything near their vicinity was sucked into nothingness.
两股从混沌中诞生的力量发生了碰撞，它们附近的一切都被吸入了虚无。
[Constellation, 'Guardian of Mandala', is gasping out.]
[星座，‘曼荼罗的守护者’，喘息着。]
Thankfully, the collision location was much further away than it looked, so the companions still on the ground were spared.
值得庆幸的是，撞击地点比看起来要远得多，所以仍然在地面上的同伴幸免于难。
Complexions of most Constellations were incredibly poor after having witnessed both the Apocalypse Dragon and an Outer God.
在目睹了天启龙和外神之后，大多数星座的成色都非常的差。
As if all those days where they roamed the heavens like kings were nothing but illusions, calamities that not even Fable-grade Constellations could handle were engaging in bitter warfare.
仿佛他们像国王一样漫游天空的那些日子只不过是幻觉，连寓言级的星座都无法应付的灾难正在进行激烈的战争。
Only then did the Constellations of the night sky realise the truth - that the end of the world was indeed right in front of their faces.
直到那时，夜空中的星座才意识到真相——世界末日确实就在他们面前。
For a certain someone, though, a person's sacrifice was a much bigger tragedy than the end of the world.
然而，对于某些人来说，一个人的牺牲比世界末日更大的悲剧。
"Ahjussssiiiiii!!"
“ ahjusssiiiiii! ”
Yi Ji-Hye yelled out in sheer desperation and fired her cannons at the fog of darkness. Of course, none of the cannon shells could damage the main body of the Nameless Mist. One couldn't even tell where its body started and ended, after all.
义智慧绝望地大叫起来，朝着黑暗的迷雾开了炮。当然，没有一发炮弹能够摧毁无名迷雾的主体。人们甚至不知道它的身体从哪里开始，又从哪里结束。
Unfortunately, the companions were unable to control their overwhelming emotions.
不幸的是，同伴们无法控制他们的强烈情绪。
"No, no, no!!"
“不，不，不!”
Shin Yu-Seung fitfully cried out as if she had been inflicted with an illness of repeating the exact same words. And as if it was resonating with her emotions, the Chimera Dragon spat out one Breath after another in the air.
申玉升断断续续地喊了出来，仿佛她是被一种重复着同样话语的疾病折磨着。就好像它与她的情感产生了共鸣，奇美拉龙一口接一口地在空气中吐出了一口气。
The eyes of Yi Gil-Yeong standing next to them were half-blurry, unfocused. As his entire body quivered, ominous demonic aura began oozing out from him.
站在他们旁边的李吉英的眼睛是半模糊的，没有聚焦。当他全身颤抖时，不祥的恶魔光环开始从他身上渗出。
"Contract…. I will…. I won't…. will…."
“合同......我会......我不会......我会......”
And in front of these three, another three stepped forward. Facing the horrifying Calamity that they had been dreading all along, each of the companions lost their reasoning in their own ways. Some let themselves go, falling to a flood of emotions, while others managed to hold on to their broken reasoning in some elaborate manner.
在这三个人面前，另外三个人走上前来。面对他们一直害怕的可怕的灾难，每个伙伴都失去了他们自己的道理。一些人放任自流，陷入情绪的洪流，而另一些人则以某种精心设计的方式，坚持着他们破碎的推理。
Yu Jung-Hyeok unleashed his transcended form.
于重赫释放了他的超越形式。
Han Su-Yeong was draped by the Black Flame Dragon.
韩素英被黑焰龙所覆盖。
And Jeong Hui-Won had opened the eyes of God-slaying.
而郑惠媛已经打开了杀死上帝的眼睛。
Without giving anyone a chance to stop them, the three stepped forward at the same time, and they glanced at each other. Then, someone else did stop them from the front.
没有给任何人机会去阻止他们，三个人同时走上前去，他们互相看了一眼。然后，有人从前面阻止了他们。
It was Anna Croft.
是安娜·克罗夫特。
"All of you, please stop! You mustn't break away from the battlefield!"
“你们所有人，请停下来!你们不能离开战场!”
[Nebula, <Asgard>, is currently commanding the battlefield.]
[星云，阿斯加德，目前正在指挥战场。]
Anna Croft's voice, along with <Asgard>'s Great Fable, managed to tie all three of them to their spots.
安娜·克罗夫特的声音，连同阿斯加德的伟大寓言，成功地把他们三个人联系在了一起。
Yu Jung-Hyeok's expression crumpled unsightly. "Get out of my sight."
于重赫的表情变得难看起来:“滚出我的视线。”
"This isn't what the 'Demon King of Salvation' wanted!"
“这不是‘救世魔王’想要的!”
"What the 'Demon King of Salvation' wanted?"
“‘救世魔王’想要什么?”
Han Su-Yeong's left arm was lit in black flames as if there was no more need to listen here.
韩素英的左臂被黑色的火焰点燃，好像没有必要再听了。
Anna Croft quickly spoke. "I've begun seeing bits of the future."
安娜·克罗夫特很快说，“我开始看到未来的一些东西。”
The Fables were now flowing within her [Eye of the Great Demon].
寓言现在在她(大恶魔之眼)里流淌。
"It might be that this is because he has really done it." Anna Croft sounded genuinely impressed. She looked at the fierce battle of the two Calamities taking place in the distant sky and spoke. "To save this world, he really…."
“这可能是因为他真的做到了。”安娜·克罗夫特听起来真的很感动。她望着远方天空中正在进行的两灾之间的激烈战斗，说道。“为了拯救世界，他真的......”
"God damn it! Who cares about saving the world and shit?! We want to….!"
“该死的!谁在乎拯救世界什么的?!我们想要...!”
"His sacrifice is truly noble. Do you not understand what that means?"
“他的牺牲是真正的高尚，你不明白这意味着什么吗?”
"You better shut your mouth!"
“你最好闭上你的嘴!”
Han Su-Yeong blew her top and roared out. Her scary aura managed to momentarily shut Anna Croft up.
韩素英大发雷霆，怒吼了一声。她那可怕的气场让安娜·克罗夫特立刻闭上了嘴。
"Why should Kim Dok-Ja save this world? Why should that bastard sacrifice himself for such a stupid waste-of-time?! Is this stinking world even worth saving?!"
“为什么金道子要拯救这个世界？为什么那个混蛋要为了这种愚蠢的浪费时间而牺牲自己?！这个讨厌的世界值得拯救吗?”
Her voice was cracking up from anger. It was a voice belonging to someone who had been suppressing her rage over and over again. The prophet looked at that face, and listened to that voice, and recalled a story from her past.
她的声音因愤怒而变得沙哑。这是一个一次又一次压抑着她的愤怒的人的声音。先知看着那张脸，听着那个声音，想起了她过去的一个故事。
"The 'Demon King of Salvation' also said the same thing once upon a time."
“从前，‘救恩魔王’也说过同样的话。”
- Whether this world is worth protecting or not, one should wait and see first.
-这个世界是否值得保护，我们应该先观望。
Was it back during the Gourmet Association? The 'Demon King of Salvation' once said that to her. Anna Croft knew very well what he meant back then.
是在美食家协会的时候吗？救世魔王曾经对她说过这句话。安娜·克罗夫特非常清楚他当时的意思。
This world was one being ruled by Dokkaebis and Constellations. She, too, created 'Zarathustras' in order to change this world, after all.
这个世界被多卡比斯和星座统治着。毕竟，为了改变这个世界，她也创造了“查拉图斯特拉斯”。
Anna Croft raised her head and looked at the sky once more. Even as a prophet, she couldn't tell if he was still asking that question of this world. However….
安娜·克洛夫特抬起头，又望了望天空。即使作为一个先知，她也不知道他是否还在问这个世界的问题。但是..。
"He's over there right now."
“他现在就在那边。”
Some Fables were to be proven not by words, but through one's actions.
有些寓言不是用语言来证明的，而是用行动来证明的。
"He has met you people in this world, has he not?"
“他在这个世界上见过你们，不是吗?”
For the first time ever, the three's expressions changed to something quite similar to one another after hearing her.
这是有史以来第一次，三个人的表情在听到她的声音后变得十分相似。
Anna Croft continued on with a cautious tone of voice. "Please, have faith in me, the prophet. We need to save up our strength, and then, aim for the moment when the two Calamities fight each other and destroy themselves. Only then will our survival be guaranteed."
安娜·克洛夫特小心翼翼地继续说下去。“请相信我，先知。我们要积蓄力量，争取两灾相争，自相残杀的时刻。只有这样，我们的生存才有保障。”
"Prophet? You think you're the only one who can tell the future?"
“先知?你以为只有你能预知未来吗?”
That was when Anna Croft realised something.
这时安娜·克罗夫特意识到了一些事情。
Han Su-Yeong's surrounding vicinity was overflowing with the Fable of [Predictive Plagiarism]. The Regressor Yu Jung-Hyeok was studying and observing the situation without rest through his [Eye of Sage] in the meantime.
韩素英的周边地区充斥着“预测剽窃寓言”。与此同时，回归者俞正赫正在用他的“圣眼”不眠不休地研究观察情况。
It wasn't only the prophet who could predict the future. These two also possessed insight far superior to others when it came to reading future events.
