Even then, the reason why I had to ask the obvious question was…
即便如此,我问这个显而易见的问题的原因是.....。
"Excuse me."
“对不起。”
….Because, there was someone who did want to leave for real.
因为有人真的想离开。
"I'd like to sit out this one."
“我不想参加这次比赛。”
And it was none other than Han Myeong-Oh. It wasn't as if I didn't expect this.
不是别人,正是韩明勋。我也不是没有预料到。
He carried on. "I'm not saying I'll completely leave the Nebula. However, there is a place I wish to visit for one last time."
他继续前进。“我不是说我会完全离开星云。不过,有一个地方我想最后再去一次。”
Yi Ji-Hye next to him retorted unhappily. "Eh-whew, ahjussi, why don't you just leave? You aren't much of a help, anyway. You'll just run away like your ass is on fire once the fighting starts, right?"
在他旁边的易智慧不高兴地反驳道。“哎呀,大叔,你为什么不走呢?反正你也帮不上什么忙。一旦战斗开始,你就会像屁股着火一样逃跑,对吗?”
"…..I might be like this, but back in my heyday when I was a Count in the Demon World….."
“......我可能是这样的,但是回到我的全盛时期,那时我还是恶魔世界的一个伯爵......”
Originally, the words 'Demon World' and 'Count' in that sentence should've been replaced by 'Mino Soft Director'.
最初,这句话中的“恶魔世界”和“伯爵”应该被“米诺软件公司董事”所取代。
Watching them go back and forth brought about a wry grin on my face. Actually, I knew where Han Myeong-Oh wished to go.
看着他们来回走动,我的脸上露出了苦笑。事实上,我知道韩明吴想去哪里。
"Are you thinking of going to where the 'Isle of Reincarnators' used to be?"
“你是不是想去‘转世岛’以前的地方?”
My question caused Han Myeong-Oh's expression to harden visibly.
我的问题使韩明勋的表情明显僵硬起来。
I carried on. "Even if the area's been sealed, the aftereffects of the Apocalypse Dragon and 'Indescribable Distance' still linger there. That place will still be considerably dangerous."
我继续前进。“即使该地区已被封锁,启示龙和‘难以描述的距离’的余波仍然在那里徘徊。那个地方仍将相当危险。”
"Even then, I'd like to go and take a look."
“即便如此,我还是想去看看。”
The Isle of Reincarnators, where the Great War of Saints and Demons took place. Even now, corpses of dead stars and Outer Gods should be floating around aimlessly near the vicinity of the dark dimension. Those beings that failed to get on the Ark and got killed in the process.
转世之岛,圣魔大战的发生地。即使是现在,死去的恒星和外部诸神的尸体也应该漫无目的地漂浮在黑暗维度附近。那些未能登上方舟的生物,在登上方舟的过程中被杀害了。
….Perhaps the Demon King 'Asmodeus' was among them.
也许恶魔之王阿斯莫德斯就是其中之一。
"That child is everything I've earned in this world."
“那个孩子就是我在这个世界上的一切。”
The light of determination shone within Han Myeong-Oh's eyes.
韩明吴的眼睛里闪烁着决心的光芒。
Post-Great War, he diligently participated in the main scenarios with us. He was working incomparably harder than back when he used to steal certain projects away from his subordinates for the sake of advancing his career.
第一次世界大战后,他勤奋地和我们一起参与了主要的情节。当他为了提升自己的职业生涯而从下属那里窃取某些项目时,他比以前工作得更加努力,无与伦比。
And he got to taste the fruit of his labour, too - although small, he still earned a share of a Great Fable, and even acquired several useful Star Relics in the process, too.
他也尝到了自己劳动的果实——虽然很小,但他仍然获得了一部《伟大的寓言》,甚至在这个过程中还获得了一些有用的星际遗迹。
All of that was to help him search for his daughter.
所有这一切都是为了帮助他寻找他的女儿。
The current him might be able to withstand the chaos's aftereffects lingering around Isle of Reincarnator for a few days.
现在的他也许能够承受在转世岛附近徘徊几天的混乱的余波。
"Please, be careful out there."
“请在外面小心点。”
Han Myeong-Oh nodded his head, finished his preparations, and stood up. Looked to me he had already made up his mind before coming here. Companions all bade him good luck.
韩明吴点了点头,准备完毕,站了起来。在我看来,他来这里之前就已经下定决心了。同伴们都祝他好运。
Not receiving the 'One Single Fable' scenario didn't automatically mean there would be no 'One Single Fable' - it existed for everyone. Just like how anyone could embark on a journey to search for their own ■■.
没有接受“一个单一寓言”的情节并不自动意味着将不会有“一个单一寓言”-它存在于每个人。就像任何人都可以踏上寻找自我的旅程一样■。
I watched him tremble in fear as he stepped foot inside the portal and began thinking about something.
我看着他走进传送门,开始思考一些事情,吓得浑身发抖。
[Your ■■ is getting nearer.]
[你的■在靠近。]
It wasn't <Star Stream> that decided where your 'Conclusion' might be.
并不是星流决定了你的结论在哪里。
I looked back to discover that my companions were waiting for me.
我回头一看,发现我的同伴们正在等我。
"I shall continue with the meeting."
“我将继续开会。”
*
[11 hours and 8 minutes until the start of the Great Apocalypse scenario.]
[11小时8分钟后,大启示录的情节就要开始了]
Only about half a day remained before the Great Apocalypse. If we managed to withstand this apocalyptic event, we'd be able to enter the Final Scenario.
大灾变前只剩下大约半天的时间。如果我们能够经受住这场世界末日,我们就能够进入最后一幕。
In the meantime, I went through all the information in the original story, and requested for the acquisition of every useful remaining Star Relic and skill found not just in the Korean Peninsula, but the rest of the planet as well. Companions easily okayed my request.
与此同时,我浏览了原始故事中的所有信息,并要求获得所有剩余的有用的星遗迹和技能,不仅仅是在朝鲜半岛,也包括这个星球的其他地方。伙伴们很容易就同意了我的请求。
Han Su-Yeong asked. "And what will you do?"
韩素英问道:“那你打算怎么办?”
Of course, I too had something to do. For instance, thinking up of a new sure-kill technique with this uptight dude.
当然,我也有事要做。例如,想出一个新的肯定杀死技术与这个紧张的花花公子。
"You fool must surely know this by now. There is only one way for us to fight against the Great Apocalypse," said Yu Jung-Hyeok, while polishing the edges of the [Dark Heavenly Demon Sword].
“你这个傻瓜现在一定知道这件事了。我们只有一种方法来对抗大启示录,”YuJung-Hyeok一边擦亮(黑暗天堂恶魔之剑)的边缘一边说道。
Uriel, the Black Flame Dragon, the Great Sage and other Constellations promised to lend us their aid, but we couldn't rely on them all the time.
乌列,黑焰龙,圣人和其他星座承诺帮助我们,但我们不能一直依靠他们。
Even after excluding the 'Secretive Plotter', there were four more King-level Outer Gods still to appear. If all of them decided to attack simultaneously, then we wouldn't be able to win even if the Myth-grade Constellations such as the Great Sage and the King of Underworld were with us.
即使排除了“秘密阴谋者”,还有四个国王级的外部诸神仍在出现。如果他们都决定同时进攻,那么即使神话级的星座,如大圣和黑社会之王与我们同在,我们也不可能获胜。
However, we did have one method we could use to fight back.
然而,我们确实有一个方法可以用来反击。
The ⸢Hellscape of Eternity.⸥
永恒的地狱之景
The reward of the 1863rd regression turn, the Myth-grade Fable I earned through the 'Secretive Plotter'. With this Fable, I could recreate Yu Jung-Hyeok's memories, and he could rouse up the powers of the 1863rd turn and use it by sharing that stage of memories with me.
1863年回归的回报,神话级别的寓言,我通过“秘密策划者”获得。有了这个寓言,我可以重现余正赫的记忆,他可以唤醒1863年的力量,并使用它与我分享那个阶段的记忆。
The only problem was…
唯一的问题是..。
[Reading has failed!]
(阅读失败了!)
[The highest Yu Jung-Hyeok's regression turn you can read currently is '978th'.] [Fable, 'Hellscape of Eternity', is looking at you with criticising eyes.] …..Something had gone wrong with my reading ability.
[目前你能读到的余重赫回归的最高转折是’978’。][寓言《永恒的地狱景观》就是用批评的眼光看着你。]我的阅读能力出了点问题。
[Reading has failed!]
(阅读失败了!)
[The highest Yu Jung-Hyeok's regression turn you can read currently is '778th'.] [Fable, 'Hellscape of Eternity', is wondering if you have dyslexia.]
[目前你所能读到的余重赫的回归最高点是’778’。][寓言《永恒的地狱景观》想知道你是否有阅读障碍。]
And now, even the Fable was beginning to mock me.
现在,连《寓言》都开始嘲笑我了。
This thing continued on for several days now, and Yu Jung-Hyeok, unable to hold it back anymore, finally blew his top. "How pathetic. Did you not say you've been reading books for all your life?"
这件事持续了好几天,于正赫再也忍不住了,终于发飙了。“真可悲。你不是说你一辈子都在读书吗?”
"…..It's not all my life, you know. In any case, this is a different sort of problem."
“......你知道,这不是我的全部生活,无论如何,这是一个不同的问题。”
I also had no idea. Why was this happening only now?
我也不知道,为什么现在才发生?
"If this problem persists, you better hand over the Fable to me. It'll be simpler if I use it myself."
“如果这个问题继续存在,你最好把寓言给我。如果我自己用它会更简单。”
"I'd have given you already if only I could."
“如果可以的话,我早就给你了。”
I had already asked the 'Secretive Plotter' about it. He simply ignored me, though.
我已经问过“秘密策划者”了,但他根本不理我。
"In that case, use that possession skill from the last time. Use that, then activate the Fable. The rate of assimilation goes higher if you do."
“如果是那样的话,就用上次的占有技巧。使用它,然后激活寓言。如果你这样做,同化的速度会更快。”
He must've been talking about the [Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint] here.
他一定是在这里谈论[无所不知的读者视角]。
"I'd like not to rely on that if I can."
“如果可以的话,我不希望依赖它。”
For sure, activating [Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint] would make using the Fable so much simpler. That skill's effect was similar to a Sponsor taking over the control of an Incarnation. However… "Using that skill leaves my Incarnation body defenceless. So, it's for the best to win without resorting to it if possible."
当然,激活[无所不知的读者视角]会使得寓言的使用变得更加简单。这个技能的效果类似于赞助者接管化身的控制权。然而...“使用这项技能会使我的化身身体无法防御。所以,如果可能的话,最好的办法就是不诉诸于此而获胜。”
"How laughable. This is the result of neglecting your training every day."
“太可笑了。这是每天忽视训练的结果。”
"….Do you honestly think everyone can train to a ridiculous degree like you?"
“你真的以为每个人都能像你一样训练到荒谬的程度吗?”
Yu Jung-Hyeok glared at me for a short while before focusing on the Fable once more without saying anything else.
余正赫盯着我看了一会儿,然后再次专注于寓言,什么也没说。
He probably already knew the truth - that the reason for my unwillingness to rely on [Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint] was actually something else.
他可能已经知道真相——我不愿依赖[无所不知的读者视角]的原因实际上是别的。
⸢For a while now, [Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint] stopped listening to Kim Dok-Ja's commands.⸥
有一段时间,[无所不知的读者视角]不再听从金道子的命令
Not only that, the skill would activate when I least wanted it to and start reading people's minds. I wasn't sure why such a thing was happening.
不仅如此,当我最不愿意的时候,这项技能就会被激活,并开始读取别人的思想。我不知道为什么会发生这样的事情。
It was possible that I got too used to looking inside someone's head. I had gotten too used to reading nicely-laid out sentences of their inner thoughts rather than listening to their actual words.
可能是因为我太习惯于观察别人的大脑了。我已经习惯于阅读他们内心思想的句子,而不是听他们的实际话语。
[Reading has failed.]
(阅读失败了。)
Maybe, me suddenly developing an inability to read was an obvious consequence.
也许,我突然无法阅读是一个明显的后果。
"Focus properly, Kim Dok-Ja."
“正确地集中注意力,金道子。”
I reactivated the Fable after hearing Yu Jung-Hyeok's rebuke. I slowed down my breathing and collected my thoughts.
听了余正赫的斥责,我重新启动了寓言。我放慢了呼吸,整理了思绪。
[Fable, 'Hellscape of Eternity', has begun its storytelling!]
[寓言《永恒的地狱风景》已经开始讲故事了!]
I should forget about all the info I knew on Yu Jung-Hyeok.
我应该忘记我所知道的关于于正赫的所有信息。
I knew nothing about him.
我对他一无所知。
This guy, he was a complete stranger to me.
这个人对我来说完全是个陌生人。
Yu Jung-Hyeok was not some crazed psychopath, nor was he an impregnable stubborn idiot, either.
俞正赫不是什么疯狂的精神病患者,也不是一个顽固的白痴。
When I thought like that, it felt as if the inside of my head was clearing up just a little.
当我这样想的时候,我觉得我的头脑好像清醒了一点。
Right, I should start from there. Just like back at that moment when I read the 'Ways of Survival' for the first time.
对,我应该从那里开始。就像回到我第一次读《生存之道》的那一刻。
Tsu-chuchuchut!
楚楚!
It was right then that something strange occurred.
就在那时,奇怪的事情发生了。
[A problem has occurred during your reading attempt!]
[在您尝试阅读时发生了一个问题!]
Suddenly, Yu Jung-Hyeok's complexion paled greatly. "Kim Dok-Ja! You fool, what have you….!"
突然,俞正赫的脸色变得苍白起来。“金道子!你这个傻瓜,你有什么...!”
Those were his last words, as the light disappeared from within his eyes.
这是他最后的遗言,因为他眼中的光芒消失了。
I was taken by surprise and hurriedly asked him. "Hey, are you alright "
我吃了一惊,急忙问他:“嘿,你没事吧?”
There was no answer.
没有回答。
[Character 'Yu Jung-Hyeok's' egos are colliding!]
[人物‘YuJung-Hyeok’的自我正在碰撞!]
Egos were… colliding
自我意识...碰撞?
Growing even more urgent now, I tried to confirm his current status, but then…
现在变得更加迫切,我试图确认他目前的状态,但然后..。
['Character List' has failed to activate.]
[“字符列表”未能激活]
The text that appeared afterwards was a sentence that I heard quite a long time ago.
后来出现的文本是我很久以前听到的一个句子。
[Applicable individual is not a 'Character'.]
[适用人士不是「角色」。]
