The moment that dark, sinister irregular mass exploded in the sky, I grabbed the kids nearby and went down flat on the ground. Yi Hyeon-Seong spread out his steel wall, and the rough screeching metallic noises coming from above assaulted our ears.
就在那黑暗的、不规则的物体在天空中爆炸的那一刻，我抓住附近的孩子，平躺在地上。李贤成摊开他的钢墙，从上面传来的刺耳的金属声刺激着我们的耳朵。
How long passed by like that? Both the sounds and sensation of touch all disappeared.
这样过了多久?声音和触觉都消失了。
[Transmission has been completed.]
[传输已经完成]
And then, a puzzling message entered my head.
然后，一个令人费解的信息进入了我的脑海。
Muscles in my entire body ached as if I had been beaten up. Yi Hyeon-Seong's defensive barrier covering the sky was also gone, too.
我全身的肌肉都在疼痛，好像被打过一样。李贤成覆盖天空的防御屏障也消失了。
….What on earth happened here?
这里到底发生了什么？
I couldn't properly understand the current situation.
我不能很好地理解当前的形势。
Scanning my vicinity revealed the fact that I was all alone. Not the kids I had been shielding, Yi Hyeon-Seong and Jeong Hui-Won enveloping us, even Yu Jung-Hyeok leaping into the air to wield his sword - none of them could be seen.
扫视了一下我的邻居，发现我是一个人。不是我一直护着的那些孩子，李贤成和郑惠元包围着我们，甚至于余正赫跳到空中挥舞着他的剑——他们都看不见。
What I could see, though, was a wide-open plain. I looked behind to discover a dense forest with trees reaching high into the heavens, and opposite it, a land filled with stinking sulphur.
不过，我看到的是一片开阔的平原。我向后看去，发现一片茂密的森林，树木高高地伸向天空，对面是一片散发着硫磺气味的土地。
⸢Great Dokkaebis exercised the Bureau's powers and interfered with the scenario.⸥
伟大的多卡比斯行使了调查局的权力，干涉了这种情况
I could clearly remember that much. After that, the Bureau began restricting our Coin donations, and realising that that wasn't enough, they even summoned a strange missile-like thing, too.
我能清楚地记得这么多。在那之后，调查局开始限制我们的科因捐款，并意识到这还不够，他们甚至还召唤了一个奇怪的类似导弹的东西。
And then, after that…
然后在那之后..。
⸢[Ah, ah. Can you hear me now? Well, deary me. I ended up working extra because the Korean patch wasn't installed yet.]⸥
啊，啊。你现在能听见我说话吗？我的天啊。因为韩国的补丁还没有安装，所以我只能额外工作了
I felt this chilling sensation and quickly took a look around. A Fable could be heard coming from somewhere. And it was something I was intimately familiar with.
我感到一阵寒意，迅速四处看了看。从某个地方可以听到一个寓言。这是我非常熟悉的东西。
⸢[This is not a film shoot.]⸥
这不是拍电影
Something else popped up in the air right after that. It was a small shadow covering the sky the moment that dark, sinister summoned thing exploded.
在那之后，空气中突然出现了一些其他的东西。黑暗、邪恶的召唤物爆炸时，一个小小的阴影笼罩着天空。
I hurriedly scanned my surroundings.
我匆匆扫视了一下周围的环境。
⸢[This isn't a dream, it's not a novel, nor is it 'reality' that you people used to know. You get it now? So everyone, shut your mouths and listen to me.]⸥
这不是梦，不是小说，也不是你们过去所知道的“现实”。现在明白了吗？所以大家都闭上嘴听我说
Definitely nearby. He was somewhere nearby, for sure.
肯定就在附近他肯定就在附近。
Just how long did I wander around this plain for?
我在这片平原上徘徊了多久？
Eventually, I spotted him collapsed on the field of reeds.
最后，我发现他倒在芦苇地上。
"Bihyung."
“ Bihyung”
I carefully picked him up. He used to be as big as a grown adult male after becoming a Great Dokkaebi, but now, he had shrunken back down to the size of a baby.
我小心翼翼地把他抱起来。在成为伟大的多卡比之后，他曾经和成年的雄性一样大，但是现在，他缩小到了婴儿的大小。
Just like on the first day that I met him.
就像我遇见他的第一天。
"Bihyung!"
“ Bihyung! ”
The starting point of all my tragedies.
我所有悲剧的起点。
If I hadn't met this guy, I'd have probably remained as a regular contracted worker for Mino Soft even now.
如果我没有遇到这个家伙，我可能仍然作为一个正式的合同工米诺软件工人，直到现在。
⸢[Hold on. Are you saying that you want to sign the <Stream Contract> with me ]⸥
[等等。你是说你想和我签流合同吗 ]
If I hadn't signed the damn contract with this guy, I'd not have been able to come this far.
如果我没有和这家伙签那该死的合同，我不可能走到这一步。
Crumbs of Fable fell from Bihyung's body. Their falling speed got progressively faster and faster.
面包屑的寓言从Bihyung的身体下降。他们的下降速度越来越快。
⸢"Just what have you contributed to the <Kim Dok-Ja Company>'s Fable? Why are you shamelessly involving yourselves in their Coin compensations?"⸥ ⸢"Aren't you fed up with such a story by now? For how long are you going to seek out Fables that conform only to the Bureau's standards?"⸥
“你对金道子公司的《寓言》有什么贡献？为什么你们不知羞耻地参与他们的硬币补偿?””“你现在还没有听腻这样的故事吗？你打算在多长时间内寻找只符合局里标准的寓言故事?”
Bihyung's Fables that I didn't know of were crumbling away.
我不知道的《比亨寓言》正在崩溃。
I shook him again, trying to wake him up. I even resorted to smacking him in his cheeks, too. That prompted a frail voice to enter my ears.
我又摇了摇他，试图叫醒他。我甚至还打他的脸颊。这促使一个脆弱的声音进入我的耳朵。
"….That hurts. I'm beginning to pity Bawul you smacked around back then."
“......真伤人。我开始同情巴乌尔了，你那时候打了他一巴掌。”
Bihyung opened his eyes and smiled bitterly.
比亨睁开眼睛，苦笑着。
He spoke not in the true voice, but in a trembling, faltering regular voice. It was Dokkaebi Bihyung's real voice, heard for the first time after such a long while.
他说话的声音不是真实的，而是颤抖的、颤抖的、规律的声音。这是多卡比比亨的真实声音，这么长时间以来第一次听到。
A voice that I hated.
一个我讨厌的声音。
This bastard was responsible for turning people into Incarnations and spreading scenarios everywhere, changing this world into a kingdom of voyeurism. And that was precisely why I had to ask him.
这个混蛋负责把人们变成化身，把情节传播到每一个地方，把这个世界变成一个偷窥的王国。这正是我要问他的原因。
"Why did you save me?"
“你为什么要救我?”
The reason why Bihyung ended up in this state was because he touched the Probability he shouldn't have.
比亨之所以会处于这种状态，是因为他碰到了他不应该碰到的可能性。
Just like those Great Dokkaebis being extinguished after forcibly interfering with the scenario, Bihyung too ended up in this miserable state by jumping headlong into the aftermath's storm he couldn't handle.
就像那些伟大的多卡比斯在被强行干涉之后被扑灭一样，比亨也因为一头扎进了他无法应对的余波中而陷入了这种悲惨的境地。
⸢Bihyung would die in this place.⸥
必亨会死在这里
Fables I possessed began trembling.
我所拥有的寓言开始颤抖。
This wasn't my plan. This wasn't the Fable I longed for.
这不是我的计划，这不是我渴望的寓言。
['The 4th Wall' is violently shaking!]
第四道墙在剧烈地晃动
Instead of a reply, Bihyung vomited out a mouthful of pitch-black Fable. His body was getting smaller and smaller.
他没有回答，反而吐出一口漆黑的寓言，他的身体越来越小了。
"….I'd like to sit up for a minute."
“我想坐起来一会儿。”
I helped Bihyung up.
我帮毕亨站起来。
The flights of stars could be seen in the cold night sky. Stars that went along this way and that according to the flow of the scenario. The flow of the distant stream of stars…
在寒冷的夜空中可以看到星星的飞行。那些沿着这条路走下去的恒星和那些按照剧本流动的恒星。遥远恒星的流动..。
Bihyung was staring at the ⸢Star Stream⸥.
比亨盯着星流。
"I've transferred all of your companions. And the majority of the Constellations, as well as the Incarnations near you, should've survived as well. This place is safe from the external shocks."
“我已经把你所有的同伴都调走了。而且大多数的星座，以及你附近的化身，也应该存活下来。这个地方不会受到外部冲击。”
"You…."
“你......”
"You'll soon figure out the details yourself. You're a smart cookie, after all."
“你很快就会自己搞清楚细节，毕竟你是个聪明人。”
Several stars were falling in the sky. While I searched for words to say, the number of falling stars gradually increased.
几颗星星正在天空中坠落。当我想找词语说的时候，流星的数量逐渐增加了。
Stars were dying in the distant 'context of constellations'.
恒星在遥远的“星座环境”中逐渐消亡。
Bihyung should have lived his life while dreaming the dreams of those stars.
毕亨应该在梦想着那些星星的时候过自己的生活。
"Kim Dok-Ja. You and I aren't comrades."
“金道子，你和我不是同志。”
He must've enjoyed the stars' Fables, and must've watched their tragicomedies together. He must've witnessed the deaths of countless stars. And, on one hand… "You are an Incarnation of the scenario, and I'm just a storyteller."
他一定很喜欢明星们的寓言故事，而且一定一起看过他们的悲喜剧。他一定目睹了无数星星的死亡。而且，一方面...“你是这个场景的化身，而我只是一个讲故事的人。”
….He must've thought that those deaths looked quite beautiful.
他一定认为那些死亡看起来很美好。
It was true that I hated Bihyung. I tried so hard to stoke the flames of that emotion.
我真的很讨厌Bihyung，我极力煽动这种情绪。
[Fable, 'King of a Kingless World', is looking at its storyteller.] [Fable, 'One Who Opposes the Miracle', grieves for its storyteller.] [Fable, 'One Who Hunted the King of Disasters', mourns for its storyteller.]
[寓言《无王世界之王》正在讲故事。][寓言，“反对奇迹的人”，为讲故事的人感到悲哀。][寓言《猎杀灾难之王》哀悼故事讲述者。]
My Fables scattered like fading screams and spoke to Bihyung.
我的寓言像渐渐消失的尖叫声一样四处散落，对着Bihyung说话。
He chuckled. With a proud face, no less.
他咯咯地笑了起来，脸上还带着骄傲的表情。
"I actually wanted to witness your Fable till its end, though."
“实际上，我想亲眼目睹你的寓言故事，直到它结束。”
Beyond the skies he was looking at, was the ⸢Final Wall⸥. The dream Bihyung had been dreaming. The place where the king of all scenarios, the 'Dokkaebi King', resided.
在天空之外，他看到的是最后的长城。比亨一直在做的梦。所有情节之王，多卡比国王居住的地方。
I wanted to say something. I wanted to ask if he really was giving up here. Ask him if he had forgotten about the promise we made back then.
我有话要说。我想问他是否真的放弃了这里。问问他是否忘记了我们当时的承诺。
⸢"Dokkaebi Bihyung, sign the contract with me. If you do, I shall make you the king of all Dokkaebis.⸥
“多卡比比兴，和我签合同吧，如果你签了，我就让你做多卡比斯的国王
I still hadn't fulfilled that promise yet.
我还没有实现那个承诺。
⸢He was the first reader of the Fable Kim Dok-Ja had compiled.⸥
他是金道子编写的寓言的第一个读者
My hands grew lighter. I slowly lowered my head, but Bihyung wasn't there anymore. As befitting a damn storyteller, he made sure to leave behind his story even as he died.
我的手变轻了。我慢慢低下头，但是比亨已经不在了。作为一个该死的讲故事的人，他确保在他死的时候留下他的故事。
I staggered back up to my feet.
我摇摇晃晃地站了起来。
⸢He wanted to create a Fable where no one had to be sacrificed.⸥ [Your great epic has encountered an opportunity to change!!]
他想创造一个没有人需要牺牲的寓言。[你的伟大史诗遇到了一个改变的机会!!]
Blood seeped out from my tightly clenched fists. All of my Fables were wailing out. They screamed towards <Star Stream> and at the [Final Wall].
血从我紧握的拳头里渗出来。我所有的寓言都在痛哭流涕。他们朝着星河和最后的墙尖叫着。
⸢This story hasn't ended yet, Kim Dok-Ja.⸥
这个故事还没有结束，金道子
That was the dead Bihyung's Fable talking. The Fable he left behind moments before his death circled around me and was exhausting its own paragraphs.
这就是那个死去的Bihyung的寓言。他临死前留下的寓言在我的周围盘旋，用尽了它自己的段落。
Bihyung was dead, yet the Fable he left behind was still alive.
比亨死了，但他留下的寓言仍然活着。
I somehow managed to get a grip on myself. Bihyung was right; the end I wanted to see had only just begun. I needed to find out where he had sent me, and where my companions had ended up in. And then….
我设法控制住了自己。比亨是对的，我想看到的结局才刚刚开始。我需要知道他把我送到了哪里，我的同伴们最后到了哪里。然后..。
Tsu-chuchuchut….!
Tsu-chuchuchut... ！
The Probability's sparks were raining down in the middle of skies above the vast plains. And the scenes of the outside faintly revealed themselves beyond the storm of sparks.
概率的火花在广阔的平原上空的天空中如雨点般落下。外面的景象在火花的风暴之外隐隐约约地显现出来。
The devastated stage of the final pages, the battlefield I was in only a few moments ago, was now filled to the brim with corpses of unmoving Constellations and Incarnations.
在最后几页被毁坏的阶段，我刚刚经历的战场，现在充满了静止的星座和化身的尸体。
The moment I saw that, I figured out where I was.
当我看到那个的时候，我知道我在哪里了。
[Welcome to the 'Final Ark'.]
欢迎来到“最后的方舟”
This was inside of the 'ship' I was supposed to destroy.
这就是我要摧毁的飞船的内部。
[The 'Final Ark' is currently in the middle of the takeoff procedure.]
[“最后一艘方舟”目前正处于起飞过程中。]
[Final scenario has been revised!]

….So, that's how it was.
事情就是这样。
If this was indeed inside the ship called 'Final Ark', then it made sense to see such a world hiding within the craft.
如果这确实是在一艘名为“最后方舟”的飞船里，那么看到这样一个隐藏在飞船里的世界就合情合理了。
This place I was standing in, it was the land of the beginning where countless myths were born. The myths that were currently asleep inside this very ark.
我所在的这个地方，是无数神话诞生的起源之地。这些神话现在沉睡在这个方舟里。
Ku-gugugugu….
古古古古..。
Rough vibration could be felt coming from the opposite side of this land. Something was approaching here.
从这片土地的另一边可以感觉到粗糙的震动，有什么东西正在接近这里。
⸢Run, Kim Dok-Ja.⸥
快跑，金道子
The existences that recovered their original powers while carrying their worldviews on their backs - the Myth-grade Constellations were flooding in this way.
在背负着自己的世界观的同时，恢复了自己原有力量的存在——神话级星座正以这种方式泛滥。
*
⸢The ark is a type of a 'Great Fable weapon'. In order to completely wreck the ark, you must destroy the Fable core deep inside it somewhere.⸥
方舟是一个伟大的寓言武器的类型。为了完全摧毁方舟，你必须在某个地方摧毁寓言深处的核心。
I read the Fable Bihyung had left behind while running within the interior of the ark.
我在方舟内部跑步时读到了比亨的寓言故事。
[You have currently infiltrated the residential cabin D-21.] [The influence of another myth is far too strong within the applicable area.] [Your Nebula's members can't be contacted currently.]
[你们已经潜入了D-21号住宅区][另一个神话的影响力在适用范围内过于强大。][目前无法联系到你们星云的成员]
Maybe the abnormally higher influence of another Great Fable was to blame, because I couldn't get in touch with my companions. Fortunately enough, though, one other person from my group had been transferred into the same cabin as me.
也许是另一个伟大寓言的异常高的影响力，因为我无法与我的同伴取得联系。不过，非常幸运的是，我们小组中还有一个人和我一起被转移到了同一个船舱。
[The influence of the same Nebula can be felt strongly!]
[同一个星云的影响可以强烈地感受到!]
"Kim Dok-Ja!"
“金道子!”
Just before I reached out and said something, Han Su-Yeong shouted out first.
就在我伸手说话的时候，韩素英先喊了一声。
"Shut up and run! Don't come this way!!"
“闭嘴，快跑!别走这边!”
The thicket behind her was cleanly sliced through right then. Something was chasing after her. She hurriedly yanked an item out from her inner pocket and threw that thing behind her - which was a smoke grenade.
她身后的灌木丛当时就被一刀切断了。有东西在追她。她急忙从内口袋里掏出一件东西，扔在身后——那是一个烟雾弹。
['Mass-production SSS-grade smoke grenade' is activating its effects!] [For next 20 seconds, the surrounding field of vision will be screened off!]
大规模生产的SSS-grade烟雾弹正在激活它的效果[在接下来的20秒里，周围的视野将被屏蔽掉!]
While the Constellations falling into confusion raised a noisy ruckus, we hurriedly escaped from the thickets. Han Su-Yeong seemed to have finished analysing the situation by now, too.
