I thought that 'it' had finally happened when I became the Outer God King.
当我成为外神之王的时候,我以为‘它’终于发生了。
[You have become the 'Enemy of the Story'.]
你已经成为了“故事的敌人”
This wouldn't be my first time experiencing the sensation of Fable in my entire body shattering into tiny little pieces. A similar thing happened back when I was booted out of the scenario and fell in the 'story's horizon'.
这已经不是我第一次体验神鬼寓言的感觉了,我的整个身体都粉碎成了小碎片。类似的事情也发生在我被踢出剧本,掉进故事的地平线的时候。
If there was one thing different between then and now, it would be me not getting expelled from the scenario even after becoming an altered existence. No, it was the exact opposite.
如果说从那时到现在有什么不同的话,那就是即使我变成了另一个人,我也不会被驱逐出这个场景。不,恰恰相反。
[You have become the boss monster of the last scenario.]
[你已经成为最后一种情况的老板怪物。]
[You will be alone forever.]
你将永远孤独
[No one will understand you in this worldview.]
在这种世界观里,没有人会理解你
I memorised the loneliness I felt in that moment. This feeling of being cast away all alone in this universe. The feeling of becoming a monster that no one could understand for all eternity.
我记得那一刻的孤独。这种被抛弃在这个宇宙中的感觉。成为一个没有人能永远理解的怪物的感觉。
However, this also wasn't my first time experiencing such a feeling either.
然而,这也不是我第一次有这样的感觉。
⸢"I'm XX Time's reporter. Do you have some time to speak with me?"⸥ ⸢"It's him. The son of the murderer."⸥
“我是XX时代周刊的记者,你有时间和我谈谈吗?”“是他,凶手的儿子。”
That was why I needed to take up this role. Only I could perform it to its fullest, after all. That was the price to pay for reading the story called 'Ways of Survival' to its conclusion.
这就是为什么我需要担任这个角色。毕竟,只有我才能把它表现得淋漓尽致。这就是为阅读这篇名为《生存之道》的故事得出结论而付出的代价。
⸢[[Your companions will never understand your decision.]]⸥
你的同伴永远不会理解你的决定
The 'Secretive Plotter' told me that as if he already knew what my plan was. And I understood why he had no choice but to say those words.
“秘密策划者”告诉我,好像他已经知道我的计划是什么。我明白为什么他别无选择,只能说这些话。
⸢"We'll find out later, won't we?"⸥
“我们以后会知道的,不是吗?”
Neither he nor I were wrong. Just that the Fables we compiled were different, that's all.
他和我都没有错,只是我们编写的寓言故事不同,仅此而已。
Kwa-kwakwakwakwa!!
夸夸夸夸夸夸夸夸!!
The tsunami wave of Fables unfolded right before my eyes. And the blinding sparks of Probability spread out above this wave. And on top of them all, the gazes from the Constellations were streaming in.
寓言的海啸波就在我眼前展开。可能性的炫目的火花在这波浪的上方散开。最重要的是,来自星座的目光如潮水般涌来。
[Constellation, 'Queen of the Darkest Spring', is watching your Fable.] [Constellation, 'Father of the Rich Night', is watching your Fable.] [Constellation, 'Mass Production-type Maker', is watching your Fable.]
[星座,‘最黑暗的春天的女王’正在看你的寓言。][《星座》,《富贵之夜之父》,正在看你的寓言。][Constellation,‘大规模生产型制造商’,正在看你的寓言。]
….
....
This wasn't a gamble that I alone could realise. Me becoming an Outer God King was merely the beginning of the final pages.
这不是我一个人能意识到的赌博。我成为外神之王仅仅是最后几页的开始。
Yu Jung-Hyeok fought hard, my companions held on bravely, and Han Su-Yeong gamely attracted the Constellations.
于重赫奋力拼搏,我的同伴们勇敢地坚持着,韩素英勇敢地引来了星座。
And the Constellations believing in us made their choices.
相信我们的星座做出了他们的选择。
⸢The plan was a success.⸥
这个计划成功了
The 'Living Flame' that rises up from the east.
从东方升起的“活火焰”。
The 'Master of the Sunken Island', the calamity of the world in the west.
沉没岛屿的主人,西方世界的灾难。
The 'Monarch of the Great Abyss', the ruler of the northern universe.
大深渊的君主,宇宙北部的统治者。
The 'King of Silverlight Heart', the ruler of the interstellar space in the south.
银光之心之王,南方星际空间的统治者。
And finally, the 'Great Plotter' that crawls from the place of nothing.
最后,从虚无中爬出来的“伟大的密谋者”。
The scenario's volume began expanding rapidly with the gathering of all five 'kings'. Historical Figure-grade Constellations failed to deal with their combined Statuses and began vomiting out Fables on their knees.
随着所有五个“国王”的聚集,这个场景的容量开始迅速扩大。历史图级星座未能处理他们的联合状态,并开始呕吐出他们的膝盖寓言。
These kings had been excluded from the scenario until now. After escaping from the reaches of the 'Hounds chasing after the Abyss' through the abundant Probability, they had personally descended to the scenario.
直到现在,这些国王都被排除在这个场景之外。在通过大量的可能性逃离了追逐深渊的猎犬的追逐后,他们亲自下降到这个场景中。
The 'Secretive Plotter' was looking in my direction. I nodded my head in return.
“秘密策划者”正朝我的方向看,我也点了点头。
⸢And now, it was time for their stage to open.⸥
现在,是他们的舞台开放的时候了
[U-uwuuuuh-!]
[ uuwuuuuuh! ]
Several terror-stricken Constellations forgot their stations and began hastily running away. The 'Monarch of the Great Abyss' grabbed the nape of one of those Constellations. The 999th turn's Kim Nam-Woon began laughing.
几个惊慌失措的星座忘记了自己的位置,匆忙地跑开了。“大深渊的君主”抓住了其中一个星座的后颈。第999圈的金南云开始大笑起来。
[[Now, now. You leaving so soon makes it a wee bit troublesome. It only just began, after all.]]
现在,现在。你这么快就要走了,真有点麻烦。毕竟,这才刚刚开始
He must've recovered some of his energy through the Probability's overflow. He glanced at me and muttered out.
他一定是从可能性的溢出中恢复了一些能量。他瞥了我一眼,咕哝着说。
[[And you, don't get ahead of yourself. We didn't come here to help you out.]]
还有你,不要操之过急,我们不是来帮你的
But then, the 'King of Silverlight Heart' stood next to me and spoke up.
然后,“银光之心国王”站在我旁边,大声说道。
[[We came to aid you.]]
我们是来帮助你的
"I know. Thanks."
“我知道,谢谢。”
As expected, Yi Hyeon-Seong remained a trustworthy person regardless of the number of regressions he lived.
不出所料,李贤成不管遭遇多少回合,仍然是一个值得信赖的人。
The 'Master of the Sunken Island', 999th turn's Yi Ji-Hye, also made her move. Fable-grade Constellations hurriedly rushed in from both sides and tried to block them somehow, but it was a waste of time.
第999回合的“沉岛大师”李继希也采取了行动。寓言级的星座匆忙地从两边冲进来,试图以某种方式阻挡它们,但这是在浪费时间。
[T-the island, it's, it's moving-!]
这个岛,它在移动
From the front of the island covered in verdant moss, silvery cannons shone brightly. The biggest warship in the world-line, the perfected [Turtle Dragon], spat out flames towards the rest of the world.
岛的前面覆盖着嫩绿色的苔藓,银色的大炮明亮地照耀着。世界航线上最大的战舰,完美的[乌龟龙],向世界其他地方喷出火焰。
Kwa-aaaaaah!!
哇-啊!!
The overwhelming spectacle of an entire corner of the battlefield being blowing away without a trace caused me, Han Su-Yeong, and even Yu Jung-Hyeok to become utterly dazed.
整个战场的一个角落被无影无踪地吹走的令人难以抗拒的景象,使我,韩素英,甚至于俞正赫都感到十分茫然。
And at the furthest front of the battlefield, two 'Kings' were facing off against the Myth-grade Constellations.
在战场的最前线,两个“国王”正面对着神话级别的星座。
⸢Two people who fought together a really long time ago were there.⸥
两个很久以前一起战斗的人在那里
The 999th turn's Uriel was wrapped around in the [Hellfire]'s corona. And the other was Yu Jung-Hyeok who had survived the 1863 hellscapes to eventually become an 'Outer God'.
第999回合的乌列被包裹在[地狱火]的日冕。另一个是于重赫,他在1863年的地狱风景中幸存下来,最终成为了一个“外神”。
⸢In that moment, Kim Dok-Ja recalled a certain ancient battlefield.⸥
那一刻,金道子想起了一个古老的战场
It was from Yu Jung-Hyeok's 999th turn.
这是余正赫的第999个回合。
Yu Jung-Hyeok and Uriel entrusted their backs to each other and fought together during the great war against Constellations. Yu Jung-Hyeok, blind in both eyes and roaring out, and Uriel protecting him - it was one of the scenes that I loved the most from the entirety of the 'Ways of Survival'. And that scene was being re-enacted right before my eyes.
于重赫和乌列尔背靠背,并肩作战,共同对抗星座大战。余重赫,双眼失明,咆哮着,乌列保护着他——这是整部《生存之道》中我最喜欢的场景之一。那一幕就在我眼前重演。
[Fable, 'Battlefield of a Hero and Flame', is waking up from its prolonged slumber!]
[寓言《英雄与烈焰的战场》正从长时间的沉睡中苏醒!]
A Fable that had disappeared a really long time ago was now connecting the two kings.
一个很久以前就已经消失的寓言,现在连接着两个国王。
[[….I shall leave <Olympus> to you.]]
[......我将把奥林匹斯山留给你。]
The 999th turn's Uriel spread open her wings wide first. Just as she unleashed her Status, Constellations pounced on her as if they were waiting for that moment.
第999回合的乌列首先张开双翼。就在她释放她的地位时,星座们向她扑来,仿佛他们正在等待那一刻。
They were the top Constellations from <Papyrus> and <Vedas>, as well as some other lower-ranked Constellations that fought against us in the 'Demon King Selection' - the 'Last Pharaoh', and the 'Bird that Eats the Thunder'.
他们是纸莎草和吠陀中排名最高的星座,以及其他一些排名较低的星座,在“恶魔王选择”——“最后的法老”和“吃雷鸟”中与我们作战。
[Fable, 'Flame of Annihilation', has begun its storytelling!]
[寓言《歼灭之火》已经开始讲故事了!]
The moment the 999th turn's Uriel wielded her sword, the first lines of the Historical Figure-grade Constellations rushing in at her turned into powder and scattered away. Incarnations with pale complexions hurriedly turned around to run, while Fable-grade Constellations shouted out venomously.
第999回合的乌列挥舞着她的剑,历史人物级星座的第一行冲向她,变成了粉末,散落一地。肤色苍白的化身匆匆转过身去奔跑,同时寓言级的星座发出恶毒的叫喊。
[Stop that sword! Stop her from swinging it, no matter what!!]
[停止那把剑!无论如何都不要让她挥舞它!!]
Uriel's sword carved out a burning path, and the 'Secretive Plotter' ran on it. It felt as if the history of the universe flowed within every step he took. His steps seemed neither too fast nor too slow, yet no one dared to stop him.
乌列尔的剑划出了一条燃烧的道路,“秘密策划者”在上面奔跑。仿佛宇宙的历史在他走的每一步里流淌。他的脚步似乎既不太快也不太慢,但没有人敢阻止他。
[Fable, 'Hellscape of Eternity', has begun its storytelling.]
[《永恒的地狱风景》已经开始讲故事了]
The most dreadful Fable in all of the world-lines began telling its story.
世界上最可怕的寓言开始讲述它的故事。
[Great Fable, 'Pilgrim of the Lonely Apocalypse', has begun its storytelling.]
[伟大的寓言《孤独启示录》已经开始讲故事了]
Everywhere his foot landed resounded with the cries of a destroyed world. The original sin of the worlds stuck to him like a shadow and continued to chase after him.
他的脚踩在地上,到处都回响着一个被摧毁的世界的哭喊声。世界的原罪像影子一样附着在他身上,继续追逐着他。
⸢No Constellation could stand in his way, and no Fable could save him.⸥
没有星座能够阻挡他,也没有寓言能够拯救他
Didn't matter whether one was an enemy or an ally, as long as one was a Constellation, one couldn't help but get seduced by his story.
不管是敌人还是盟友,只要是星座,就会情不自禁地被他的故事所吸引。
When I abruptly regained my wits from that vast sorrow stained in wonderment, he was already grabbing at Poseidon's neck.
当我突然从惊叹中恢复过来的时候,他已经抓住了波塞冬的脖子。
The latter managed to recover himself in time as well, and hurriedly shoved the 'Secretive Plotter's' hand away all the while unleashing his own Status.
后者也及时地恢复了自己的状态,赶紧把“秘密密谋者”的手推开,同时释放了他自己的身份。
[Constellation, 'Spear that Draws the Borders in the Oceans', is greatly enraged!] <Olympus>'s Great Fable began making its move. Poseidon's [Traiana] bared its fangs while enveloped in a powerful Fable. This was the might of a Myth-grade Constellation that anyone should quake in fear from.
[《星座》,《海洋边界之矛》,令人大为恼火!]奥林巴斯的伟大寓言开始行动。波塞冬的[特拉亚纳]露出它的尖牙,包裹在一个强有力的寓言中。这是任何人都应该害怕的神话级星座的威力。
However, I too was a Myth-grade now and I was perceiving his actions differently.
然而,我现在也是一个神话级别的,我对他的行为有不同的感知。
⸢Poseidon is terrified.⸥
波塞冬吓坏了
His spear uselessly cut through the air, and it was no longer as sharp as before. It was a mistake unbecoming of an arrogant Constellation, and Zeus next to him roared out in alarm.
他的长矛徒劳地划破了空气,不再像以前那样锋利了。这是一个与傲慢的星座格格不入的错误,宙斯在他旁边惊恐地咆哮着。
However, it was too late by then.
然而,那时已经太晚了。
Sliiiice!
斯利莱斯!
Something cut Poseidon's torso down, and on his chest covered in blue scales, the lengthy and black wound could be seen. From this wound, Great Fables began flooding out nonstop.
有什么东西割断了波塞冬的躯干,在他的胸口上覆盖着蓝色的鳞片,可以看到长长的黑色伤口。从这个伤口,伟大的寓言开始不停地涌出。
[Keo-heo-uhk…!]
[ Keo-heo-uhk... ! ]
Poseidon tried to press down on his chest while swinging his [Traiana] all over the place.
波塞冬试图按压他的胸部,同时摆动他的[Traiana]所有的地方。
The spear that drew the borders in the oceans - wherever his [Traiana] drew a line, that place would become an ocean. However, such a thing didn't happen this time. For the first time ever, the spear's blade that feared no one couldn't find what to aim at and simply trembled helplessly.
在海洋中划分边界的矛——无论他的[Traiana]划分了哪里的边界,那个地方就会变成海洋。然而,这样的事情这次没有发生。这是有史以来第一次,这把矛的剑刃无人畏惧,它无法找到目标,只是无助地颤抖着。
⸢The place where his ocean couldn't reach.⸥
他的海洋无法到达的地方
Both of Poseidon's eyes were soon dyed in the pitch-black abyss.
波塞冬的双眼很快就染上了漆黑的深渊。
Most likely, he was watching the darkest Fable known in this world right now. The one about the outer space, where both the ground and the sky held no meaning as effects of gravity didn't reach there. A complete devastation with not one precious thing remaining after everything was destroyed.
最有可能的是,他正在看这个世界上已知的最黑暗的寓言。关于外太空的那个,地面和天空都没有任何意义,因为重力的影响没有到达那里。所有东西都被毁坏了,一件珍贵的东西也没有了。
And the master of that devastation was looking up at the <Olympus>'s constellations.
毁灭的主人抬头看着奥林匹斯山上的星座。
[[Doesn't matter which world-line it is, you don't seem to change at all.]]
不管是哪条世界线,你似乎一点也没有改变
He didn't sound sad. If anything, he sounded relieved, actually.
他听起来并不悲伤,事实上,他听起来如释重负。
Along with the cold metallic noise, the blades of the [Heaven Shaking Sword] extended out to the night sky.
伴随着冰冷的金属声,天空的刀刃伸向夜空。
[Shut your mouth-!!]
[闭嘴!!]
Poseidon managed to beat back the fear and hurriedly swung his [Traiana] once more, But in that exact moment, the [Heaven Shaking Sword] also made its move, as well.
波塞冬设法击退了恐惧,并匆忙地再次挥舞起他的“特雷亚纳”,但就在那一刻,“天堂之剑”也开始行动了。
I remembered seeing Yu Jung-Hyeok use a similar skill to that once before. It was a skill to cut down the stars designed by a Transcender who had surpassed his own limit through incredible dedication and hard work.
我记得曾经看到余正赫使用过类似的技巧。这是一个超越自己极限的超级设计师通过不可思议的奉献和辛勤工作设计的星星。
However, something felt different. That attack, as if… ⸢As if, it was a sword technique created so that one man could face off against the entire world.⸥
然而,有些事情感觉不一样了。那次进攻,就好像......就好像,这是一种剑术,一个人可以对抗整个世界。
Breaking the Sky Swordsmanship.
打破天空剑术。
Transcending the Inner Mysteries.
超越内心的奥秘。
The Universe Slash.
宇宙斜线。
Only then did it hit home. The power the 'Secretive Plotter' displayed back then, during the battle of ⸢Journey to the West⸥, was only a portion of what he could produce.
直到那时,它才真正击中了我的要害。当时在《西游记》战役中,“秘密密谋者”所展现出来的力量,只是他所能创造的一部分。
This sword trajectory was the most beautiful I had ever seen.
这是我见过的最美丽的剑道。
His blade caused the world to split apart.
他的刀刃使世界分崩离析。
Kwa-dudududu!
哇嘟嘟嘟!
The sword strike cracked apart a nebula in its entirety and scattered stardust away. And at the end of that magic-like rays of light was Poseidon. Along with 'puh-ga-gak!' noise, his arm and leg got cut off simultaneously.
