What the 'Secretive Plotter' said felt as hollow as words coming from someone who had lost all meaning in his life.
“秘密密谋者”所说的话，就像一个失去了生命意义的人所说的话一样空洞。
I spoke up as if to rebel against that hollowness. "….Your life saved someone else's."
我大声说出来，好像是要反抗那种空虚。“......你的生命救了别人的。”
To someone who had lost so much, the truth of saving a kid whom he didn't even know the name of wouldn't be much of a consolation. The boy was someone completely unrelated to him, after all. That boy was not his comrade or his family member.
对于一个失去了这么多的人来说，拯救一个他甚至不知道名字的孩子的真相并不能带来多大的安慰。毕竟，这个男孩和他毫无关系。那个男孩既不是他的同志，也不是他的家人。
I tried to open my lips several times, yet I still couldn't say anything else. The life I lived was no help whatsoever in the quest to save this guy.
我试着张开嘴唇好几次，但还是说不出别的话。在拯救这个家伙的过程中，我的生活毫无帮助。
The 'Secretive Plotter' looked at me struggling and spoke. [[When I first saw you, I believed that I needed to bring you under my wings.]]
“秘密策划者”看着我挣扎着说。当我第一次看见你的时候，我相信我需要把你带到我的翅膀下
Bring me under his wings. For some reason, I recalled the moments I first encountered him.
把我带到他的羽翼下。不知为什么，我回忆起我第一次遇见他的时刻。

….I remembered it.
我想起来了。
That did happen. The 'Secretive Plotter' showed up during my first Sponsor Selection as my third potential choice. He really did try to become my Sponsor.
这确实发生了。“秘密策划者”出现在我第一次选择赞助商时，成为我的第三个潜在选择。他真的想成为我的赞助人。
[[After that, I continued to observe this world-line. Sometimes, I was surprised. I was just as surprised by the fact that I was surprised. Because, I hadn't been surprised by anything for a long time.]]
在那之后，我继续观察这条世界线。有时候，我很惊讶。我也同样惊讶于自己的惊讶。因为，我已经很久没有对任何事情感到惊讶了。]
I knew that. During this world-line's story, he watched what we did and sent various indirect messages. If I dug through the indirect message logs, I should be able to read the ones he sent to me.
我知道。在这个世界线的故事中，他看到了我们的所作所为，并发出了各种间接的信息。如果我翻阅间接消息日志，我应该能够读到他发给我的那些。
[Constellation, 'Secretive Plotter', is intrigued by your choice.]
[Constellation，‘SecretivePlotter’，对你的选择很感兴趣。]
[Constellation, 'Secretive Plotter', is impressed by the level of your stupidity.] [Constellation, 'Secretive Plotter', is disappointed by your flippant declaration.] [Eyes of the Constellation, 'Secretive Plotter', are sparkling after he heard your plan.]
[Constellation，‘SecretivePlotter’，被你的愚蠢程度打动了。][Constellation，‘SecretivePlotter’，对你轻率的声明感到失望。][星座的“秘密策划者”听了你的计划后，眼睛闪闪发光。]
[Constellation, 'Secretive Plotter', is curious about your scheme.]
[Constellation，‘SecretivePlotter’，对你的计划很好奇。]
…..
.....
Those messages made the first actual face-to-face with him rather awkward for me. I knew now that [666] and other Yu Jung-Hyeoks were responsible for those indirect messages, but still….
这些信息使我第一次和他面对面的交流变得相当尴尬。我现在知道，[666]和其他余正赫(YuJung-Hyeoks)应该对这些间接信息负责，但仍然.....。
[[I had to decide - whether to continue observing this distorted world, or to destroy it.]] "….Was that why you sent me to the 1863rd turn?"
[我必须做出决定——是继续观察这个扭曲的世界，还是摧毁它。]这就是你把我送到1863号转弯处的原因吗?”
The Plotter nodded his head. His choice led to the beginning of this 'world-line'.
密谋者点了点头，他的选择导致了这条“世界路线”的开始。
He continued on. [[It was roughly a similar reason why I gave this turn's Yu Jung-Hyeok the information on the 1863rd turn. I had a need to test you. To find out whether you or this turn's Yu Jung-Hyeok was the more suitable candidate to witness the conclusion.]]
他继续说。这也是我为什么在1863年转弯的时候给余正赫提供信息的原因。我需要测试你。[参考答案][参考答案][参考答案][参考答案][参考答案]
"Okay, so your choice was?"
“好吧，那么你的选择是?”
The 'Secretive Plotter' didn't reply and simply stared at me, before opening his mouth. [[There is a massive wall at the end of this world. It's the 'Final Wall' that can only be opened when all the keys have been gathered together.]]
“秘密策划者”没有回答，只是盯着我，然后才开口说话。在这个世界的尽头有一堵巨大的城墙。这是“最后的墙”，只有当所有的钥匙都集中在一起时才能打开。]
- You have acquired answers to all the questions.
你已经得到了所有问题的答案。
- The 'Three Divine Questions and Answers' has ended.
年的今天，“神圣三问答”已经结束。
I realised it then. That reply of his was the answer to my 'three questions'.
他的回答就是我“三个问题”的答案。
Sparks dancing around the 'Secretive Plotter' grew more vicious. Certain information would require the consumption of a great deal of Probability just by mentioning it. And if the info was related to the end of this world, then it was only obvious that the Probability cost would be enormous, too.
在“秘密策划者”周围跳舞的火花变得更加凶残。仅仅提及某些信息就需要消耗大量的可能性。如果这些信息与世界末日有关，那么显而易见的是，概率成本也将是巨大的。
The 'Final Wall'.
最后一道墙。
That was the 'Conclusion' the Secretive Plotter had encountered in his epilogue.
这就是秘密的策划者在尾声中遇到的“结论”。
[[The 'fragment' you possess is the last key that I've been searching for.]]
[你所拥有的“碎片”是我一直在寻找的最后一把钥匙。]
I got nervous and backed away. As I was in the shape of a [Murim dumpling], it was pretty hard to take backward steps, but whatever the case might have been, I simply had to create some distance between us.
我紧张起来，往后退了退。由于我当时的样子像[穆林饺子]，倒退是相当困难的，但无论情况如何，我都必须在我们之间制造一些距离。
If the Plotter's goal was [The 4th Wall] in my possession, then he….
如果策划者的目标是我拥有第四堵墙，那么他.....。
He, who was busy clenching and unfurling his fists, came across as rather terrifying for some reason.
他正忙着紧握和展开拳头，由于某种原因给人的印象是相当可怕的。
Other kkoma Yu Jung-Hyeoks were also looking up at the Plotter with tense expressions.
还有一些人也抬头看着密谋者，神情紧张。
[[Far too many things had to be distorted to create this world-line. I can't decide whether leaving you alone is the right thing to do or not.]]
太多的东西不得不被扭曲，才能创造出这条世界线。我不能决定让你一个人呆着是不是正确的事情
The distorted world-line. The broken Probability.
扭曲的世界线，破碎的可能性。
I heard about those two things lots of times already.
这两件事我已经听说过很多次了。
"Okay, so what? What do you want, then?"
“好吧，那又怎么样?你想要什么?”
I just threw out whatever came to my mind. The important thing was to buy time. I needed to drag this out as long as possible and return to my original body. That was important.
我只是想到什么就说什么。重要的是争取时间。我需要尽可能拖延时间，恢复到原来的身体状态。这很重要。
"I don't really get what you're trying to say here. I don't get all this confusing mumbo-jumbo about the end result devouring the cause and whatnot. However, regardless of what, my comrades and I did our absolute best to come this far. The conclusion is practically around the corner for us."
“我真的不明白你在这里想说什么。我不明白这些关于吞噬原因和诸如此类的最终结果的令人困惑的胡言乱语。然而，不管怎样，我和我的同志们都尽了最大的努力走到了这一步。对我们来说，结局几乎就要到来了。”
I could almost see it, the conclusion to this previously-unwritten story.
我几乎可以看到，这个以前没有写过的故事的结局。
[[Seeing the conclusion is not everything. The truly important thing is to witness the correct conclusion.]]
看到结论并不是一切，真正重要的是看到正确的结论
"Correct conclusion? Deciding that would be….."
“正确的结论?决定那将是......”
[[A story with distorted Probability will always go on to create a calamity.]]
[一个被歪曲的可能性的故事总会制造一场灾难。]
I became dazed from that declaration, something that only a Dokkaebi would make.
我对这种只有多卡比才会做的宣言感到头晕目眩。
"That's not like you. With something you haven't even seen yet…."
“这不像你的作风，你甚至还没看过......”
It was then an earthquake suddenly erupted out. Something collapsed with a loud 'Thud!!'
就在这时，一场地震突然爆发了，随着砰的一声巨响，什么东西倒塌了
The wine glass on the circular table tumbled over; the whole forest was shaking around.
圆桌上的酒杯翻倒了，整个森林都在晃动。
"…..What's going on "
“发生什么事了?”
This was definitely not a natural tremor.
这绝对不是一次自然的震动。
The 'Secretive Plotter' slowly stood up from the throne and walked past me. His empty eyes were now peering deeply at the wide view of the forest.
“秘密策划者”慢慢地从王座上站起来，从我身边走过。他那双空洞的眼睛现在深深地凝视着森林的广阔视野。
The N'Gai's Forest was enveloped in the violent conflagration.
北盖森林被猛烈的大火包围了。
His forest was burning up.
他的森林正在燃烧。
[AhAhAhAhAhAh]
[啊哈哈哈哈哈]
[SavemeSavemeSavemeSavemeSavemeSaveme]
[记住我的名字]
All those trees, so tall that they might pierce the heavens above, were now burning away into ashes. 'Outer Gods' hidden within the forest screamed. The hall's temperature rapidly shot up from the incredible power of the flames. This couldn't have been a simple arson.
所有这些树，高得可以刺破天空，现在都烧成了灰烬。隐藏在森林里的“外界诸神”在尖叫。大厅的温度迅速从难以置信的火焰的力量上升。这不可能是简单的纵火。
Even I could sense it.
连我都能感觉到。
Someone possessing incredible Status was attacking this place.
一个拥有令人难以置信地位的人正在攻击这个地方。
But, who could it be?
但是，会是谁呢？
Something like this was impossible. This was the territory of none other than the 'Secretive Plotter'. So, who would dare to invade this place, then?
像这样的事情是不可能的。这不是别人的地盘，正是“秘密策划者”的地盘。那么，谁敢入侵这个地方呢？
Could it be one of the large Nebulas?
它会不会是一个巨大的星云？
<Vedas>? <Olympus>? Or…. <Asgard>?
吠陀?奥林匹斯?还是...阿斯加德？
I quickly went through the list of all the Constellations related to 'fire' in my head. But I couldn't come up with any Modifiers.
我迅速浏览了一遍脑海中所有与火相关的星座列表。但是我想不出任何修饰词。
This incredible flame that burned away the entirety of the expansive forest….. Could it be that there was another existence possessing this much power back in the original story?
这难以置信的火焰烧毁了整个广阔的森林..。是不是在原始的故事中有另一个拥有如此强大力量的存在？
[MykingMykingMykingMykingMyking]

Small 'Outer Gods' quickly gathered around the Plotter. Many Outer Gods had left him by now, but still, there were quite a lot that chose to remain. They were like the citizens crowding around to protect their king, having sensed the imminent fall of their kingdom.
小“外界诸神”迅速聚集在绘图仪周围。许多外界诸神已经离开了他，但仍有许多人选择留下来。他们就像公民一样，感觉到自己的王国即将崩溃，于是聚集起来保护他们的国王。
The 'Secretive Plotter' looking at his subjects spoke to me. [['Demon King of Salvation'. I too made a mistake like you once before.]]
看着他的臣民的“秘密策划者”对我说话了。魔王救世主。我以前也犯过像你这样的错误
His voice remained relaxed, even as he faced an urgent situation of his forest burning away. As if, he had predicted all of this beforehand.
他的声音仍然放松，即使他面临着森林被烧毁的紧急情况。好像他事先就预料到了这一切似的。
[[Rather foolishly, I tried to change what had already happened in the past.]] "….What are you suddenly on about? Are you talking about the events of the 41st turn?"
(相当愚蠢的是，我试图改变过去已经发生的事情。)你怎么突然说起这个？你是在说第41个转折点的事件吗?”
If that was the case, then I too knew what happened.
如果是这样的话，那么我也知道发生了什么。
Yu Jung-Hyeok from the 41st turn made a deal with the 'Devil of the Horizon' and sent Shin Yu-Seung to the 3rd turn. As a consequence, she ended up becoming the 3rd turn's calamity.
从第41回合开始，YuJung-Hyeok与“地平线的魔鬼”达成协议，将ShinYu-seung送到第3回合。结果，她最终成为了第三个转折点的灾难。
If the 'Secretive Plotter' was thinking about that particular 'calamity', then I wanted to tell him that there was nothing to worry about.
如果“秘密策划者”正在思考那场特殊的“灾难”，那么我想告诉他，没有什么好担心的。
Unfortunately, [41] next to me was shaking his head. "This isn't from my regression turn."
不幸的是，我旁边的人摇着头说:“这不是我回归的结果。”
"What? But then….."
“什么?但是......”
[41] didn't reply and simply stared at the Plotter.
[41]没有回答，只是盯着绘图仪。
My head was in a mess. According to my knowledge, the only regression turn in the 'Ways of Survival' where he interfered with the past that had already happened was the 41st.
我的头脑一片混乱。据我所知，在《生存之道》中唯一的倒退转折点，就是他干涉已经发生的过去，那是第41次。
….But now, there was another turn besides that one?
但是现在，除了这个还有另外一个转折？
When was that? Did it happen outside the original story?
那是什么时候的事?是不是发生在原著之外？
A sun enveloped in pure flames was rising up high above the wide-open ceiling of the hall. However, this sun belonged to neither Surya nor Apollo. And in the centre of this exploding sun, ominous-looking sunspots were growing larger. No Constellations that I knew possessed a Sun that horrifying.
太阳笼罩在纯粹的火焰中，在大厅宽敞的天花板上方高高升起。然而，这个太阳既不属于苏雅，也不属于阿波罗。在这个爆炸的太阳中心，看起来不祥的太阳黑子正在变大。据我所知，没有哪个星座拥有这么可怕的太阳。
That was the power belonging to an existence I didn't know of.
这就是我所不知道的存在的力量。
[999th turn's 'Yu Jung-Hyeok' is sighing in lamentation at the Sun.]
