I took my time studying the person before my eyes. My heart rate sped up greatly, and my breathing became ragged, as well. Something touched a box of memories that shouldn't be touched, and words began leaking out from this box buried deep within the recess of the darkness.
我花了很多时间在眼前研究这个人。我的心率大大加快，呼吸也变得很急促。有什么东西碰到了一个装着不该碰的记忆的盒子，话语开始从这个深埋在黑暗深处的盒子里漏出来。
⸢"Where is the Arondight? Are you the one hiding it?"⸥
“灯在哪儿?是你藏起来的吗?”
That was the first time I encountered that dude. While firmly holding me by my collars, he asked me that question.
那是我第一次遇到那家伙。他一边紧紧抓住我的衣领，一边问我那个问题。
⸢"If you're not planning to answer me, then I shall use force to find out."⸥
“如果你不打算回答我，那么我将使用武力来查明。”
The golden [Eye of Sage] gleaming brightly just like back then was right there, waiting.
金色的[圣眼]闪闪发光，就像回到那里，就在那里，等待着。
A migraine assaulted me, and my view distorted like that of an abstract painting. The voice from the memories continued on in the meantime.
一阵偏头痛袭击了我，我的视线像一幅抽象画一样扭曲。与此同时，记忆中的声音还在继续。
⸢"That 'world' you've shown me, does it really exist?"⸥
“你向我展示的‘世界’，真的存在吗?”
….
....
……
......
……
......
⸢Applicable individual isn't a 'Character'.⸥
适用的个人不是一个“角色”
There existed certain memories that should never be forgotten even if one wanted to, and perhaps the memories of that regression turn were precisely 'that' for me.
有一些记忆，即使你想忘记，也永远不应该忘记，也许那次回归的记忆对我来说恰恰就是那样。
I failed to save Yu Jung-Hyeok of that turn. He left for the next turn, still wearing the white coat.
那一圈我没能救出余正赫，他穿着白色的外套走了下一圈。
I had never forgotten the sight of his back, surrounded by bright light and leaving me and Han Su-Yeong of the 1863rd turn behind in complete freedom.
我从来没有忘记过他的背影，被明亮的灯光包围着，留下我和韩素琼在1863年的转弯中完全自由地落在后面。
"You are…."
“你是......”
For the longest time, I lost myself and stared at the 'Yu Jung-Hyeok' sitting on the throne. The scar on his sunken cheeks, those dark, deeply withdrawn eyes - everything belonged to the 1863rd turn Yu Jung-Hyeok that I remembered.
在很长一段时间里，我迷失了自己，盯着坐在宝座上的余正赫。他凹陷的脸颊上的疤痕，那双深色的、深陷的眼睛——所有这一切都属于我记忆中的1863年转弯的余正赫。
However, my shock didn't end there.
然而，我的震惊并没有就此结束。
[Constellation, 'Secretive Plotter', is looking at you.]
[Constellation，‘SecretivePlotter’，正在看着你。]
….The Secretive Plotter
秘密策划者？
Only then did I finally discover the ominous, evil aura rising up from that Yu Jung-Hyeok's entire figure. This 'evil' was different from that of the Demon Kings. No, this was Chaos that the <Star Stream> didn't recognise as either 'Good' or 'Evil'.
直到那时，我才发现从余正赫的整个身影上升起的那种不祥的、邪恶的气息。这个“邪恶”不同于恶魔国王。不，这是混乱，星流不认为是好的或者是坏的。
I was about to say something, but then, something emitted bright light from within my inner pocket.
我正准备说点什么，但突然，有东西从我的内兜里发出了亮光。
[Exclusive Attribute, 'Scenario Interpreter', is activating!]
[独占属性‘场景解释器’正在激活!]
[Great Fable, 'Season of Light and Darkness', is reacting to your Attribute.]
[伟大的寓言，’光明与黑暗的季节’，是对你的属性的反应。]
As if it was waiting for this moment, the Fable began telling its story. Two Yu Jung-Hyeoks were in a certain place.
就好像它在等待这个时刻，寓言开始讲述它的故事。两个余重赫在某个地方。
⸢[Go back. You can't save anyone.]⸥
[回去，你救不了任何人。]
⸢"….The Secretive Plotter?"⸥
“...秘密策划者?”
As if they were stuck in fast-forward, scenes sped along in my mind. They were fragmented information, sure, but still, they were also plenty enough for me to figure out the current situation.
就好像他们被困在了快进里一样，各种场景在我的脑海中飞快地移动着。当然，这些都是零散的信息，但它们也足以让我了解当前的形势。
….So, that's what happened.
事情就是这样。
I began to gradually understand what was going on here.
我开始逐渐明白这里发生了什么。
Next up was the sight of Yu Jung-Hyeok crashing, Yi Ji-Hye catching him, and finally, the Ark leaving the Isle. It seemed that the <Kim Dok-Ja Company> had safely escaped from the 'Isle of Reincarnators'.
接下来是余重赫坠毁的景象，易智慧接住了他，最后，方舟离开了小岛。似乎金道子公司已经安全地逃离了“转世岛”。
[Great Fable, 'Season of Light and Darkness', has stopped its storytelling.]
[伟大的寓言《光明与黑暗的季节》停止了它的叙事。]
I sighed softly under the breath and shifted my gaze over to the existence atop the throne. The 'Secretive Plotter' looked down at me from his spot at the same time.
我轻轻地叹了口气，把目光转向王座之上的存在。“秘密策划者”同时从他的位置上俯视着我。
['The 4th Wall' is strongly activating!]
[“第四道墙”强烈地激活了!]
My heart calmed down and my reasoning returned to me bit by bit. I sucked in a couple of quick but deep breaths and opened my lips to speak. "If you were planning to make me panic using that appearance, then well, congratulations, you succeeded splendidly."
我的心平静下来，我的理智一点一点地回到我身上。我快速地深呼吸了几次，然后张开嘴唇开始说话。“如果你打算用这种表情让我惊慌失措，那么，恭喜你，你成功了。”
[Have you not used polite speech towards me earlier?] "I'm merely treating you the way that fits with your choice to appear as Yu Jung-Hyeok."
你之前没有对我说过礼貌的话吗“我只是按照你选择扮演YuJung-Hyeok的方式来对待你。”
I appeared completely unflustered by his aura, and as if he was amused by it, the Plotter's lips twitched slightly. Not caring whether he did or not, I simply continued on. "The 'Secretive Plotter'. I suggest we do the 'Three Divine Questions and Answers'."
我似乎完全没有被他的气场吓到，他似乎觉得这很有趣，阴谋家的嘴唇微微地抽动着。我不在乎他有没有，只是继续前进。“秘密策划者”。我建议我们做《三个神圣的问题与答案》(ThreeDivineQuestionsandanswer)。”
[And why would I agree to do that?]
(我为什么要同意这么做?)
"There's no way that you're the 1863rd turn Yu Jung-Hyeok. It's impossible, actually."
“你不可能是第1863个转弯的人。实际上，这是不可能的。”
[What makes you think that?]
你怎么会这么想
"You wish to know? As an aside, there are three reasons, you see."
“你想知道?顺便说一句，有三个原因，你知道。”
A faint flash of light flickered in the 'Secretive Plotter's eyes.
一道微弱的闪光在秘密策划者的眼睛里闪烁。
"So, are you interested or not?"
“那么，你有没有兴趣?”
[Although tempting, it's not a fair trade, is it.]
虽然很诱人，但这不是一个公平的交易，不是吗
The 'Secretive Plotter' stared at me with a pair of quiet, contemplative eyes. He seemed to be thinking about something, and also, maybe a bit angry, as well.
“秘密的策划者”用一双安静沉思的眼睛盯着我。他似乎在想些什么，也许还有点生气。
Just how long passed by like this? His left eyebrow quivered rather greatly. I suddenly recalled a certain passage from the 'Ways of Survival' just then.
就这样过了多久？他左边的眉毛颤动得很厉害。就在那时，我突然想起了《生存之道》中的一段话。
⸢Whenever Yu Jung-Hyeok makes a serious decision, his left eyebrow would quiver.⸥
每当余重赫做出一个严肃的决定时，他左边的眉毛就会颤动
The Secretive Plotter spoke. [I'll put forth a condition.]
秘密的策划者开口了。[我要提出一个条件。]
"What kind?"
“哪一种?”
[I'm sure you're curious as to why I brought you here.]
我相信你一定很好奇我为什么带你来这里
I nodded my head. Of course I was curious.
我点了点头，当然很好奇。
[However, you can't ask me about that. Because, I can't tell you. Some answers can only be resolved by you actively searching for the right question first.] "What kind of a Buddha-like utterance is that "
但是，你不能问我这个。因为我不能告诉你。有些答案只能通过你主动寻找正确的问题来解决“这是什么类似佛陀的话语?”
[I shall agree to the 'Three Divine Questions and Answers' now. You can ask me about three things, but you can't ask me a question related to 'why you've been brought to here'.]
我现在同意“神圣的三个问题和答案”。你可以问我三件事，但你不能问我“为什么你会被带到这里”这样的问题
"Is that your condition?"
“这就是你的条件吗?”
[One other thing. When you're done with the Three Questions, you must figure out the 'reason you had to be brought' here.]
还有一件事。当你完成了“三个问题”，你必须找出“你被带到这里的原因”
Now that was something I didn't expect at all and I momentarily panicked. "What if I fail to do that?"
这是我完全没有想到的，我一时慌了，“如果我做不到怎么办?”
The 'Secretive Plotter' didn't reply. Instead, he raised his lengthy finger and rested it on the armrest of his throne.
“秘密策划者”没有回答，而是竖起他那长长的手指，把它放在王座的扶手上。
Just that simple action alone sent a chill down my spine.
仅仅这个简单的动作就让我毛骨悚然。
⸢Can I defeat him in my current condition?⸥
以我现在的状况，我能打败他吗
I began inspecting all the Fables I possessed, from the legendary grade one all the way to the Great Fables….
我开始检查我所拥有的所有寓言，从传奇的一级到伟大的寓言..。
"It'll be better for you to stop doing something foolish."
“你最好别再做傻事了。”
It was none other than the kkoma Yu Jung-Hyeok number [999] standing next to me who said that. I smirked and looked down at him. "Are you worried about me?"
这句话正是站在我旁边的俞正赫(999)说的。我得意地笑了笑，低头看着他。“你担心我吗?”
"It's annoying to remove a corpse, that's all."
“移动尸体很烦人，仅此而已。”
"….What are you exactly, anyway?"
“你到底是什么人?”
[Are you using your allotted questions, then? Good.]
你在用分配给你的问题吗?很好
"No, hang on a minu…"
“不，等一下......”
Before I could finish my sentence, though, messages began floating up.
我还没来得及说完，信息就开始漂浮起来。
- Three Divine Questions and Answers has begun.
年的今天，三个神圣的问答开始了。
- Both sides can exchange three questions and three answers.
ー双方可以交换三个问题和三个答案。
- Both sides can refuse to answer one question each.
-双方可以拒绝回答各自的一个问题。
- Questions and Answers will not end until both sides have asked a question and answered it properly.
-在双方都提出问题并作出适当回答之前，问答不会结束。
- You are now using your right to ask the first question.
你现在有权利问第一个问题。
I caught the kkoma Yu Jung-Hyeok number [666] grinning slyly on the side. Sons of bitches.
我抓住了京科马余正行的号码[666]，他在旁边狡猾地笑着。
Still, now that things had ended up like this, I figured it'd not be so bad to hear their story now.
尽管如此，现在事情就这样结束了，我觉得现在听听他们的故事也不是那么糟糕。
[They are my dependents.]
他们是我的依靠
"I hope you aren't planning to end your answer like that. I'd prefer for you to be a bit more in-depth now that you're planning to tell me things anyway. I'd be eternally grateful if you so graciously explain yourself properly on what your definition of dependents are, whether it's something like [Avatar] or if it's something similar to the dependents Demon Kings have."
“我希望你不要打算这样结束你的回答。既然你已经打算告诉我一些事情，我希望你能更深入一点。如果你能如此客气地解释一下你对依赖者的定义，无论是《阿凡达》之类的，还是类似于魔王的依赖者，我将永远感激不尽。”
I spoke as cautiously as possible to make sure that what I said didn't sound like the second question. That prompted the kkoma Yu Jung-Hyeok number [777] to sigh in admiration and speak up. "He sure talks a lot, doesn't he."
我尽可能小心翼翼地说话，以确保我说的话听起来不像第二个问题。这促使于正行数字[777]叹了口气，大声说出来。“他的确话很多，不是吗?”
"I wasn't talking to you."
“我不是在跟你说话。”
[They are beings that have received my memories.]
他们是接受了我的记忆的生物
- You have acquired the first answer.
你已经得到了第一个答案。
"So, it's similar to the [Avatar] skill, then."
“所以，这和《阿凡达》的技巧很相似。”
[It's my turn. Tell me the first reason why I can't be the '1863rd turn Yu Jung-Hyeok'.] "If you were really Yu Jung-Hyeok from the 1863rd turn, then there's no way you'd be wearing that white coat."
轮到我了。告诉我第一个原因为什么我不能成为“1863转向俞正赫”“如果你真的是1863年转弯时的余正赫，那么你不可能穿着那件白大褂。”
[….Why not?]
为什么不呢
"The Stigma 'Regression' only sends back one's soul. It doesn't send back the items in your possession. The coat I gave to the 1863rd turn's Yu Jung-Hyeok was destroyed as he regressed. So, if you're really from the 1863rd turn, you shouldn't be wearing that coat."
“耻辱‘回归’只会带回一个人的灵魂。它不会退回你拥有的物品。我送给第1863回合的余正赫的外套在他退步的时候被毁了。所以，如果你真的是从1863年转弯过来的，你就不应该穿那件外套。”
[Interesting. However, this is merely an item I personally purchased.] "Yu Jung-Hyeok doesn't wear the colour white often."
[有意思，不过这只是我自己买的一件东西]“俞正赫不常穿白色的衣服。”
[….Ask your second question.]
问你的第二个问题
- You are now using your right to ask the second question.
你现在有权利问第二个问题。
I didn't hesitate and spoke up. "My second question. Are you the '1863rd turn Yu Jung-Hyeok'?"
我毫不犹豫地说，“我的第二个问题，你是‘1863转向的余正赫’吗?”
My question caused the Secretive Plotter's complexion to waver ever so slightly. [….Are you trying to mess with me?]
我的问题让这个秘密策划者的脸色稍稍动摇了一下。[......你是在耍我吗?]
"No, I'm being dead serious."
“不，我是认真的。”
[I am Yu Jung-Hyeok who had experienced the 1863rd turn.]
[我是经历过第1863次转弯的余重赫。]
"In the past tense, is it."
“用过去时态，是吗?”
[I'm merely the 'Secretive Plotter' now, that's why.]
这就是为什么我现在只是个“秘密策划者”
- You have acquired the second answer.
你已经得到了第二个答案。
Unless one placed a special condition, one had to speak only the truth during the 'Three Divine Questions and Answers'. If one didn't, then one would be swept up in the storm of Probability's aftermaths immediately.
除非一个人放置了一个特殊的条件，一个人必须在“三个神圣的问题和答案”中只说真理。如果一个人不这样做，那么他将立即卷入概率后果的风暴之中。
However, I didn't spot any signs of the storm around the 'Secretive Plotter'.
然而，我没有在“秘密策划者”周围发现任何风暴的迹象。
[Now, speak the second reason why I can't be the '1863rd turn's Yu Jung-Hyeok'.] "There are just too many inconsistencies for you to be the Yu Jung-Hyeok from the 1863rd turn."
(现在，说说我不能成为“1863年第三个转弯的余正赫”的第二个原因。)“对于你来说，1863年的余正赫(YuJung-Hyeok)那个角色有太多矛盾之处。”
[What kind of inconsistencies?]
[什么样的矛盾?]
"If you're really him from the 1863rd, then why did you send me over there to kill yourself? Logically speaking, it doesn't make sense, does it?"
“如果你真的是1863年来的那个人，那你为什么把我送到那里去自杀呢？从逻辑上讲，这没有道理，不是吗?”
[That's because that action would create me. It's a simple time paradox. I was Yu Jung-Hyeok from the 1863rd turn, and only by you killing me there would I be reborn as the 'Secretive Plotter'.] "Sounds like you've been rehearsing that answer for a while there. It sounds so natural, too. Even if I assume that you're being truthful, quite unfortunately for you, you seemed less than satisfied after I succeeded in my mission. Also, you looked quite surprised, too."
那是因为那样做会造就我。这是一个简单的时间悖论。从1863年开始，我就是余正赫，只有你杀了我，我才能重生为“秘密密谋者”“听起来你已经排练了一段时间了。这听起来也很自然。即使我假设你是诚实的，对你来说很不幸，在我成功完成任务后，你似乎并不满意。而且，你看起来也很惊讶。”
[….Ask your next question.]
问你的下一个问题
"No, you go ahead first. I'll ask mine last."
“不，你先问，我最后问我的。”
The 'Secretive Plotter' stared at me for a little while before eventually opening his lips. [Fine. What is the final reason why I can't be 'Yu Jung-Hyeok from the 1863rd turn'?] "I have a special method to find that out. I possess a skill that allows me to read the inner thoughts of the other party, you see."
