Han Su-Yeong yelled out.
韩素英大声喊道。
"You stupid bastard! Did you forget already This world-line's ark has already-!"
“你这个笨蛋!你已经忘了吗 这个世界线的方舟已经-了!”
Yu Jung-Hyeok's sword thrust dug into her opening. The moment she gasped out, her dagger was already flying away. Blood spluttered from the cut wound.
于重赫的剑刺进了她的开口。她一喘气，匕首就飞走了。血从伤口中溅出。
His sword was now pointing straight her neck.
他的剑直指着她的脖子。
"Jung-Hyeok-ssi! Please stop!"
“静赫!请停下来!”
"H-hold on, master! Are you mad!! What's gotten into you!?"
“等等，师父!你疯了吗!!你怎么回事!?”
The companions arriving belatedly approached them to stop the fighting.
同伴们姗姗来迟地向他们靠近，要求停止战斗。
However, Yu Jung-Hyeok didn't even look behind at them as he swung his sword. The gob-smacking level of magical energy wave shot out from the [Dark Heavenly Demon Sword] and drew a line of roiling flames one step in front of the companions.
但是，余重赫挥剑的时候连看都不看他们一眼。魔法能量波从黑暗天堂恶魔之剑射出，在同伴面前一步拉出一条滚动的火焰线。
"No one crosses that line. If you do, I will cut y…."
“没人能越过那条线。如果你越过了，我就会割伤你......”
Smack!
拍！
Han Su-Yeong's left foot rising up in the blink of an eye accurately kicked his wrist. The [Dark Heavenly Demon Sword] gripped in his hand flung away, drew circles in the air, before stabbing into the ground.
韩素英的左脚在眨眼间抬起来，准确地踢了他的手腕。他手里紧握的黑暗天魔之剑被扔了出去，在空中划了几个圈，然后扎进了地里。
Han Su-Yeong growled at him. "Yu Jung-Hyeok. I'm sure you already know this, but… I really, really hate to see a rotten apple spoiling the whole barrel."
韩素英对他咆哮起来。「余正赫。我相信你已经知道了，但是......我真的，真的不愿意看到一个烂苹果毁掉整个桶。”
"….."
"....."
"You know, I was feeling pretty good up until a few minutes ago. Specifically, before you started doing this crap, that is… I guess the peace of the past two years have been too sweet for me, seeing how I've completely forgotten about what kind of a bastard you are."
“你知道，几分钟前我还感觉很好。具体来说，在你开始做这些废话之前，我想过去两年的平静对我来说太甜蜜了，因为我已经完全忘记了你是个什么样的混蛋。”
It was hard to tell just who her boiling rage was directed at.
很难说她那沸腾的怒火是冲着谁来的。
Han Su-Yeong recalled the faces of her companions reading her novel. The faces that grew at ease as they read the story.
韩素妍回忆起同伴们读她的小说时的表情。当他们读到这个故事的时候，脸上的表情变得轻松自在。
The companions, everyone else, even herself…. they were about to feel brave enough to finally take that one step forward, away from 'that day'. Yet…
同伴，其他人，甚至她自己..。他们即将感到足够勇敢，最终向前迈出那一步，远离那一天。然而..。
Han Su-Yeong stopped both Jeong Hui-Won and Yu Sang-Ah about to cross the burning line. "You two, stay back. Looks like today is finally the day I pound some sense into this guy."
韩素英拦住郑惠媛和余桑雅，准备越过火线。“你们两个，退后。看来今天终于是我给这家伙点颜色看看的日子了。”
As soon as those words ended, both the figures of Han Su-Yeong and Yu Jung-Hyeok vanished. The place they met again was in the air dozens of metres off the ground. The thunderclap-like explosions rang out and their fists collided against one another.
这些话一说完，韩素英和余重赫的形象就都消失了。他们再次相遇的地方是在离地面几十米的空中。响起了雷鸣般的爆炸声，他们的拳头相互碰撞。
Ruuuumble, kurururung!!
鲁姆布勒，库鲁朗!！
The blade of Han Su-Yeong's hand slammed hard into Yu Jung-Hyeok's waist, while his right kick landed on her solar plexus. The exchange of attacks and defences that even Constellations' eyesights found hard to keep up continued on. Blood trickled down her lips, while large, bloody bruises formed on his arms raised up to guard him.
韩素英的手用刀片狠狠地打在余正赫的腰上，而他的右脚则落在她的腹腔神经丛上。攻击和防御的交流，甚至连星座的视力都难以跟上，仍在继续。鲜血顺着她的嘴唇流了下来，而他的手臂上则形成了大块的血瘀伤，他举起手来保护他。
Yi Ji-Hye watching the fight unfold couldn't hold back and reached for her own sword. It was Yu Sang-Ah who stopped her.
易智慧看着战斗展开，忍不住伸手去拿自己的剑。是余相娥阻止了她。
"Eonni? But why?"
“Eonni?为什么?”
"Let them be for the time being."
“就让他们暂时这样吧。”
Perhaps she had predicted something, because while stopping the companions, she spread out her lotus pedestals, as well. She was planning to protect the civilians from the storm of aftermaths soon to visit them.
也许她已经预言了什么，因为当她阻止同伴的时候，她也展开了她的莲花座。她正计划保护平民不受后来造访他们的暴风雨侵袭。
Right next second, the atmosphere up in the sky began to change.
就在下一秒，天空中的大气层开始发生变化。
[Great Fable, 'Torch that Swallowed the Myth', has started its stammered attempt at storytelling.] [Great Fable, 'Liberator of the Forgotten Ones', is waking up from the darkness.]
[《伟大的寓言》，《吞噬神话的火炬》，已经开始了口吃的讲故事的尝试。][伟大的寓言，‘被遗忘者的解放者’，正从黑暗中苏醒。]
The clash of these two managed to awaken the old Fables. Han Su-Yeong summoned all of her strength to broke through Yu Jung-Hyeok's fist and shouted out.
这两个人的冲突成功地唤醒了古老的寓言。韩素英用尽全身力气打破了玉重赫的拳头，大声喊道。
"Speak up! Why today, of all days? Why have you been staying quiet for the last two years only to start this crap today?!"
“大声点！为什么偏偏是今天？为什么过去两年你一直保持沉默，今天才开始说这些废话?”
"None of your business."
“不关你的事。”
"Aha, is that so."
“啊哈，是这样吗?”
She didn't plan on going this far. However, looking at the expressionless face of Yu Jung-Hyeok acting like a damn stubborn mule, she simply couldn't rein in her boiling anger anymore.
她没打算走这么远。然而，看着余正赫毫无表情的脸，就像一头该死的倔驴，她再也控制不住自己沸腾的愤怒了。
"I always hated you. And regretted it, too. Why did I write the story of someone like you with my own hands?"
“我一直恨你。也很后悔。为什么我要亲手写你这样一个人的故事?”
She'd never have said these words in any other times. Even then, she continued to spit out everything anyway.
在其他任何时候，她都不会说这些话，即使在那时，她仍然把一切都吐了出来。
"I cursed my other self. If this story didn't exist, none of these things would've happened. No one would've died. And Kim Dok-Ja might have….!"
“我诅咒了另一个自己。如果这个故事不存在，这些事情都不会发生。没有人会死。而KimDok-Ja可能已经...!”
Yu Jung-Hyeok's fist finding that brief window of opening cut her words short. He kept his mouth resolutely shut and continued to fight. Though she hadn't heard a proper answer yet, Han Su-Yeong knew why he was trying to get a hold of the [Final Ark].
于重赫的拳头打开了一个简短的窗口，她的话被打断了。他坚决地闭上了嘴，继续战斗。虽然韩素妍还没有听到一个合适的回答，但是她知道他为什么想要得到最后的方舟。
"We already failed. Since we came home with our tails between our legs, you should've quietly accepted it and moved on. Have you really forgotten everything [The 4th Wall] said to us?"
“我们已经失败了。既然我们夹着尾巴回家了，你应该默默地接受，然后继续前进。你真的忘了第四道墙对我们说的每一句话吗?”
She knew the truth, and that was why she just couldn't stand it anymore.
她知道真相，这就是她再也无法忍受的原因。
⸢You shouldn't have been greedy. No, y o u sh oul d've be en con te nt wi th 49% Kim Dok Ja⸥ [The 4th Wall]'s voice from that day, the one she had never forgotten until now.
你不应该这么贪婪。不，你应该听到的是那天49%的金道子[第四堵墙]的声音，那是她到现在都没有忘记的声音。
Yu Jung-Hyeok finally opened his mouth. "Spoken like a true loser. You simply gave up, that's all."
于重赫终于开口了。“说得像个真正的失败者。你只是放弃了，仅此而已。”
Every time their fists collided, the worn-out Fables scattered in the air. The fragments emitting faint rays of light settled down on his cheeks.
每次他们的拳头碰在一起，破旧的寓言就散落在空中。那些散发出微弱光线的碎片落在他的脸颊上。
It was only then did she spot his messed-up appearance. The unkempt, stiffened hair, and his rather unsightly-looking unwashed face.
直到这时，她才看清了他凌乱不堪的外表，蓬乱僵硬的头发，还有他那相当难看的、没洗过的脸。
Han Su-Yeong sucked in her breath and took a step back in that instant. Some memories brushed past her head just then - Yu Mi-Ah, showing up one day while crying her eyes out and saying that her oppa had just disappeared, and Yu Jung-Hyeok, walking away from the pro gamer job he barely managed to earn back, and vanishing into thin air.
韩素英吸了一口气，立刻后退了一步。就在那时，一些记忆掠过了她的脑海——余美娥，有一天她哭得眼睛都要掉出来了，说她的哥哥刚刚消失了，而余正赫则从他勉强挣回来的职业玩家的工作中走了出来，消失得无影无踪。
⸢Should I have started off with how he had been doing all this time?⸥
我是不是应该从他一直以来的表现开始
Golden aura was focusing on his right hand. That was the beginning of the [Breaking the Sky Force Punch]. He was being deadly serious here. Han Su-Yeong hurriedly unfurled her right hand.
金色的光环集中在他的右手上。这就是《打破天空武力重击》的开始。他在这里是非常严肃的。韩素英连忙伸出右手。
[Stigma, 'Character Summon', is activating!]
[耻辱，‘角色召唤’，正在激活!]
At the bare minimum, if she used this skill to fling him far away, then…
至少，如果她用这个技巧把他甩得远远的，那么.....。
[Applicable individual is no longer a 'Character'.]
[适用的个人不再是“角色”。]
She belatedly realised it - the 'Yu Jung-Hyeok' standing before her eyes was not the character from the 'Ways of Survival' she had written.
她后来才意识到——站在她眼前的“余正赫”并不是她所写的“生存之道”中的人物。
After Kim Dok-Ja's final act had arrived, and after the 'Ways of Survival's story came to an end, Yu Jung-Hyeok had completely broken free of the position of the 'Character'.
在金道子的最后一幕到来之后，在“生存之道”的故事结束之后，余正赫彻底摆脱了“人物”的地位。
A punch wrapped in pure golden light scythed the air and flew in. She activated every single evasion skill she could.
一个包裹在纯金色光芒中的潘趣酒在空气中呼啸而过。她激活了她所有的闪避技巧。
The attack brushed past her shoulder with the thinnest margin imaginable. The storm of aftermath from that improbably powerful punch pricked her painfully.
她的肩膀上掠过一阵攻击声，空隙极小，难以想象。那一记难以置信的重拳所造成的后果使她痛苦不堪。
Yu Jung-Hyeok muttered out. "….Your skills have barely lost any of their original powers. Is this due to the system's grace?"
余正赫喃喃自语道你的技能几乎没有失去任何原来的能力。这是由于体制的优雅吗?”
The only reason why Han Su-Yeong's skills could still exhibit such power was because she received the Bureau's Fable from the 1865th turn's Bihyung.
韩素妍之所以能够展现出如此强大的能力，唯一的原因就是她从1865年的Bihyung收到了局里的寓言。
Yu Jung-Hyeok asked her with an emotionless voice. "This world no longer needs the system. Yet, why did you receive that Fable from him?"
于重赫毫无表情地问她。“这个世界不再需要这个体系。但是，你为什么从他那里收到了《寓言》呢?”
"Obviously to maintain Kim Dok-Ja's life."
“显然是为了维持金道子的生命。”
They went through with the [Group Regression] because Kim Dok-Ja's Avatar was increasingly getting weaker. And she received the Bureau's Fable just in case something similar happens to Kim Dok-Ja.
他们进行了群体回归，因为金道子的阿凡达变得越来越虚弱。她收到了局里的寓言，以防类似的事情发生在金道子身上。
"Why did you do something like that? You should know this. That fool cannot wake up again," said Yu Jung-Hyeok.
“你为什么要这样做?你应该知道这一点。那个傻瓜不能再醒来了，”于正赫说。
"Kim Dok-Ja isn't dead y-!"
“金道子没有死!”
"If you really believe that, then why are you stopping me?"
“如果你真的这么认为，那你为什么阻止我?”
For a moment there, she became speechless.
有那么一会儿，她说不出话来。
Yu Jung-Hyeok then flashed right behind her, and slammed down on her back. Han Su-Yeong crash-landed on the ground. She coughed out thick dust and stood back up, then shouted at him while tottering unsteadily.
于重赫在她身后闪了一下，然后重重地摔在她的背上。韩素英迫降在地面上。她咳出厚厚的灰尘，站了起来，摇摇晃晃地对他大喊大叫。
"….Yu Jung-Hyeok, wake the hell up! You think this is what Kim Dok-Ja really wants? He told you, didn't he? He told you not to abandon this world. And you also agreed!"
”...YuJung-Hyeok，醒醒！你认为这就是金道子真正想要的吗？他告诉你了，是吗？他告诉你不要放弃这个世界。你也同意了!”
"That's right. I agreed not to regress."
“没错，我同意不退步。”
"Don't make me laugh! You can't regress anymore, that's what. If you still could do it, you'd probably have gone back!!"
“别逗我笑！你不能再退化了，这就是原因。如果你还能做到的话，你可能已经回去了!”
"I may have."
“可能是吧。”
Yu Jung-Hyeok's golden eye began to glow brightly within the thick dust cloud. And that eye was now questioning Han Su-Yeong.
于重赫的金色眼睛在厚厚的尘埃云中开始明亮地发光。那只眼睛现在正在审问韩素英。
"Are you any different?"
“你有什么不同吗?”
She couldn't answer back. But in her stead, Kim Dok-Ja's Fables still remaining within her grasp replied.
她无法回答，但是金道子的寓言仍然在她的掌握之中。
[Fable, 'One Who Opposes Miracles', is lamenting in sorrow.]
[寓言《反对奇迹的人》哀叹悲伤。]
These were words that she just couldn't let go. She wrote them down somewhere sometimes to endure her life. Telling herself not to regress, to live in the present. She continued to reflect on those obvious-sounding words of the past, and continued to endure moment by every moment. That was her past two years.
这些话让她无法释怀。她有时把它们写在某个地方，以便忍受她的一生。告诉自己不要倒退，要活在当下。她继续回忆着过去那些听起来显而易见的话，时时刻刻都在忍受着。那是她过去的两年。
"It seems that you too couldn't forget anything."
“看来你也忘不了什么。”
"Shut up."
“闭嘴。”
Han Su-Yeong dashed forward in an instant and punched him squarely in the face. Every time their fists flew out, the Fables they shared and compiled together writhed violently.
韩素英一下子冲上前去，一拳打在他脸上。每当他们的拳头飞出，他们分享的寓言和编辑在一起激烈扭动。
[Fable, 'King of Kaixenix', is being agitated.]
[寓言《凯塞尼克斯之王》正在激动之中]
She believed that she worked hard to endure. She believed that a lot of time had passed by now, as much as all the sentences she had written down. She breathed, she ate, and she slumbered - Han Su-Yeong survived in that manner.
她相信自己努力工作以求忍耐。她相信很多时间已经过去了，就像她写下的所有句子一样。她呼吸，吃饭，睡觉——韩素英就是这样活下来的。
⸢You are not a regressor because you regress.⸥
你不是倒退者，因为你倒退了
However, could she really say she had been living a life that way?
然而，她真的可以说她一直过着那样的生活吗？
⸢Some people would live their entire lives inside the already-ended past.⸥
有些人会在已经结束的过去中度过他们的一生
Every time bones in her fists were crushed, Fables scattered away little by little - Fables, the raw memories preserved as was without any revisions. Han Su-Yeong reflexively began retrieving these scattering Fables.
每当她拳头里的骨头被压碎，寓言就一点一点地散开，原始的记忆就像没有任何修改过一样被保存下来。韩素妍条件反射地开始回想起这些散落的寓言。
She didn't want to let go of any one of them. She didn't want to forget about a single thing.
她不想放弃他们中的任何一个，她不想忘记任何事情。
⸢For the past two years, she hadn't been able to take a single step forward.⸥
在过去的两年里，她一步也没有向前迈进
Han Su-Yeong panted breathlessly and spoke up. "What do you think will change if you do this now?"
韩素英气喘吁吁地说:“你认为现在这样做会改变什么?”
"…."
"...."
"Even if you leave, you won't find Kim Dok-Ja. And you can't even go anywhere."
“即使你离开了，你也找不到金道子。你哪儿也去不了。”
"…."
"...."
"Besides, this world-line's [Ark] is already destroyed. Did you forget what happened back during the final battle? That isn't an ark. And we can't leave this world-line even if we wanted to!"
“此外，这条世界航线的(方舟)已被摧毁。你忘了在最后一战中发生了什么吗？那不是方舟。即使我们想离开这条世界线，我们也不能离开!”
The powers of the two people collided once more. Accompanied by the loud "Ku-dududu!!" noise, the storm was generated from their magical energy. Yu Jung-Hyeok standing in the centre of the storm then replied.
两个人的权力再次发生冲突。伴随着响亮的“咕嘟嘟!!”暴风雨是由他们的魔法能量产生的。于重赫站在风暴的中心然后回答。
"I've compiled so many Fables up until now, but I still do not know what my ■■ is."
“到目前为止，我已经编辑了这么多寓言故事，但我仍然不知道我的■是什么。”
The vigorous, ferocious Fable exploded within the air. He didn't pay any heed to the precious Fables being damaged and simply swung his fists.
