Jung Heewon and I passed through the central shopping district of Paradise and arrived at a small hill.
郑和元和我穿过天堂的中心购物区，来到一座小山上。
The place where the master resided was naturally gorgeous. It was the same with the castle in Peace Land. However, the lord of Paradise wasn’t a normal existence.
主人居住的地方自然是很华丽的。和平之地的城堡也是如此。然而，天堂之王并不是一个正常的存在。
[The constellation ‘Demon-like Judge of Fire’ has wide eyes.] [The constellation ‘Patron of the Young and the Travelers’ reveals discomfort.]
[像魔鬼一样的火之审判者星座有着大大的眼睛][年轻人和旅行者的守护神星座显示出不适。]
As I moved closer to the hill, the constellations of Eden reacted violently.
当我靠近小山时，伊甸园的星座反应激烈。
Patron of the Young and the Travelers. Perhaps a new archangel was paying attention to me. Based on the faint pressure felt from the indirect message, it seemed to be a constellation that was at least on the level of Uriel.
年轻人和旅行者的守护神。也许是一个新的大天使注意到了我。基于间接信息带来的微弱压力，这似乎是一个至少在乌列尔层面上的星座。
It meant three angels in Eden was following me.
这意味着伊甸园里有三个天使跟着我。
[The constellation ‘Prisoner of the Golden Headband’ is looking forward to your rampage.] [The constellation ‘Abyssal Black Flame Dragon’ wonders about your stigma.]
[星座‘金发囚徒’期待着你的狂暴。][“深海黑焰龙”星座对你的耻辱感到惊讶。]
The Great Sage the Equal of Heaven and the black dragon were the same. All three regular members of my channel gathered together. I felt pleased because the Great Sage the Equal of Heaven helped with the formation of my nebula last time.
大圣、天平和黑龙是一样的。我频道的三个固定成员聚集在一起。我感到很高兴，因为大圣天平上次帮助我形成了星云。
[The constellation ‘Prisoner of the Golden Headband’ has snorted and let out snot.] …It was hard to believe from the indirect messages that this was the Great Sage the Equal of Heaven. In fact, did he actually write the indirect messages? For example, there was the clone I saw.
[星座‘金发囚徒’喷了一声鼻息，吐出了鼻涕]从间接的信息来看，很难相信这就是天平上的大圣人。事实上，他真的写了那些间接的信息吗？例如，我看到了一个克隆人。
Either way, if Secretive Plotter came then all four of the early people would be gathered… [The constellation ‘Secretive Plotter’ is watching the situation with interested eyes.
不管怎样，如果神秘的密谋者来了，那么早期的四个人都会聚集在一起...[神秘的密谋者星座以感兴趣的眼光注视着局势。
Scarily enough, the last one came as I was thinking about him.
可怕的是，最后一个是在我想到他的时候出现的。
Secretive Plotter. I wasn’t able to confirm his face at the constellation banquet. It was clear that he was a narrative-grade constellation but no matter how I thought about it, I couldn’t remember his modifier.
秘密策划者。在星座宴会上我无法确认他的脸。很明显，他是一个叙事级别的星座，但不管我怎么想，我都不记得他的修饰语。
I suddenly had doubts. Was it possible this strong presence didn’t appear in the original novel?
我突然产生了疑问，这种强烈的存在可能不会出现在原著中吗？
[Many constellations are paying attention to your actions.]
许多星座都在关注你的行动
“We are here.” Jung Heewon spoke and I stopped at the road up to the hill. There was a white brick house on top of the hill.
“我们在这里。”郑鹤元说话了，我在通往山上的路上停了下来。山顶上有一座白砖房子。
A white house on the hill. I didn’t know the intentions behind it but the taste was unique.
山上有一座白色的房子，我不知道它背后的意图，但它的味道是独一无二的。
“I’ll wait here. Call me if anything happens.”
“我在这儿等。有事就打电话给我。”
I nodded but I already knew that Jung Heewon wouldn’t run right away because I called her. In Paradise, there was no one who could win again the Paradise master.
我点点头，但是我已经知道郑鹤元不会马上跑掉，因为我打了电话给她。在天堂里，没有人能够再次赢得天堂的主人。
I climbed up along the road and a shadow appeared near the brick house. A man with a beautiful appearance stood there, as if he had been carved into a sculpture.
我沿着马路爬上去，砖房附近出现了一个影子。一个外表漂亮的男人站在那里，好像他被雕刻成了一个雕塑。
“Oh, you’re here.”
“哦，你来了。”
If I didn’t have Fourth Wall, I would’ve stopped breathing from his beauty. Yoo Jonghyuk was also handsome but this person’s appearance couldn’t be described. It was a demonic beauty.
如果没有第四面墙，我就不会因为他的美貌而停止呼吸。柳永玉也很英俊，但是这个人的外貌无法描述。这是一个魔鬼般的美人。
“I’m sorry but please wait a moment. These guys were shy around strangers.”
“对不起，请稍等。这些人在陌生人面前很害羞。”
The man was watering the flowers on the hill. The flowers were blooming towards the air. Their petals were wide open, like they were trying to swallow the sky, but they were just small flowers.
那人正在山上浇花。花儿向空中绽放。它们的花瓣敞开着，就像它们试图吞下天空，但它们只是小花。
I knew the name of the flower.
我知道那朵花的名字。
“The Perpetual Motion.”
《永动机
It was was a collective term for things that worked forever without being supplied energy sources from outside, but here it was merely the name of a flower.
这是一个集体术语，指的是那些没有外界能源供应而永远工作的东西，但在这里它仅仅是一朵花的名字。
The man asked, “Do you know this flower?”
男人问:“你认识这种花吗?”
“New flowers bloom almost every day.”
“几乎每天都有新花开放。”
“You have great knowledge.”
“你知识渊博。”
It was naturally because I read Ways of Survival.
这很自然，因为我读了《生存之道》。
The flowers of Paradise, the Perpetual Motion. The flower, which only grew on this hill, bloomed at dawn and yielded fruit at night. The fruit fell before dawn and would be used as fertilizer to grow more flowers. Perpetual Motion was a flower that repeated forever.
天堂之花，永动机之花。这种花只生长在这座小山上，黎明时开放，夜间结果。这种水果在黎明前就开花了，可以用来作为肥料种植更多的花。永动机是一朵不断重复的花。
The man said this flower was very lovely. “I never get tired looking at them. Their vitality is truly amazing.”
男人说这种花很可爱，“我看着它们从不觉得累，它们的生命力真是令人惊叹。”
“However, the name is wrong. If it was really perpetual motion, the flower should grow well without water.”
“然而，这个名字是错误的，如果它真的是永动机，那么这种花应该在没有水的情况下也能很好地生长。”
“It is such a beautiful flower but you can only saw the flaws?”
“它是如此美丽的一朵花，但你只能看到它的缺陷?”
The man laughed and looked at me. “I haven’t introduced myself. I am…”
那个男人笑着看着我，“我还没有自我介绍，我是......”
“The master of Paradise, Reinheit von Djerba.”
“天堂的主人，ReinheitvonDjerba。”
I knew him well. He was one of the most famous ’10 Evils’ in Ways of Survival. Reinheit smiled. “Nice to meet you, Kim Dokja.”
我很了解他。他是《生存之道》中最著名的“十恶魔”之一。雷海特笑了。“很高兴见到你，KimDokja。”
As expected, he already knew who I was.
不出所料，他已经知道我是谁了。

It was truly great. His overall stats had exceeded the limits of the scenario and almost every skill had reached the maximum. Maybe Reinheit was the ‘limit’ of this scenario.
真是太棒了。他的总体数据已经超过了场景的限制，几乎每个技能都达到了最大值。也许Reinheit是这种情况的极限。
I stared at him and Reinheit clapped.
我盯着他，Reinheit拍了拍手。
“It is difficult when you are burning with too much hostility. The Perpetual Motion will be broken.”
“当你被太多的敌意所燃烧时，这是很困难的，永动机会被打破。”
I asked, “Why did you call me?”
我问:“你为什么打电话给我?”
“I was wondering about the rumours. You have caused a loud buzz the moment you entered this scenario.”
“我对这些谣言感到好奇。你一进入这个领域就引起了轩然大波。”
Reinheit was different from the 10 Evils I had met so far. If Gong Pildu and Lee Seolhwa were growing into the 10 Evils, Reinheit was already near completion.
不同于我迄今为止遇到的10个邪恶。如果龚皮尔杜和李世华正在成长为十股魔鬼，那么Reinheit已经接近完成了。
“A being like you entering the scenario is a threat to me.”
“像你这样的人进入这个场景对我来说是一种威胁。”
“The second ranked demon marquis is too humble.”
“排名第二的恶魔侯爵太谦虚了。”
“…You know about that? Your preliminary investigation is thorough.”
“...你知道吗?你的初步调查是彻底的。”
His killing intent suddenly sprang out.
他的杀人意图突然暴露出来。
…Was he going to ambush me now?
他现在要伏击我吗？
I hesitated. I didn’t think I could beat or kill him. It wouldn’t be an easy fight. The outcome couldn’t be guaranteed. Yet the reason for my hesitation…
我犹豫了一下。我不认为我能打败或杀死他。这不是一场轻松的战斗。结果不能保证。然而我犹豫的原因是..。
He said, “In my world, Dark Castle was the 34th scenario.”
他说，“在我的世界里，黑暗城堡是第34个场景。”
Perhaps it was because I saw his Paradise. Reinheit watched the scenery of the fortress below the hill.
也许是因为我看到了他的天堂，Reinheit看到了山下堡垒的景色。
“I remember the first time I came here 800 years ago. At the time, there was nothing on the plains. Only the rankings were given. The incarnations were busy hunting and killing each other, despite there being nothing in the scenario.”
“我还记得800年前我第一次来到这里。当时，平原上什么也没有。只给出了排名。投生者们忙于猎杀对方，尽管在这个场景中什么也没有发生。”
I imagined them first falling on the plains. All beings in Dark Castle evolved into demons over time. The first ones to enter Dark Castle weren’t demons from the beginning.
我想象他们首先落在平原上。随着时间的推移，黑暗城堡里的所有生物都进化成了恶魔。第一批进入黑暗城堡的人从一开始就不是恶魔。
“They ascended to a higher species in order to become stronger. In a situation with no time limits or failure conditions, they focused only on getting a higher ranking. Endless war and slaughter. It is the only thing that the incarnations could do when the story had disappeared.”
“他们提升到一个更高的物种，以便变得更强大。在没有时间限制或故障条件的情况下，他们只关注获得更高的排名。无休止的战争和屠杀。这是故事消失后，化身们唯一能做的事情。”
The disappearance of the scenario wasn’t a happy thing. Whether it was a constellation or an incarnation, every being eventually needed a story.
这种情况的消失并不是一件令人高兴的事情。无论它是一个星座还是一个化身，每个人最终都需要一个故事。
However, Reinheit didn’t agree with this. He was tired of being a toy in someone’s scenario and no longer wanted to be a slave to the scenario.
然而，Reinheit不同意这个视角。他厌倦了在别人的剧本中充当玩具，不再想成为剧本的奴隶。
“Thus, I created Paradise.” I knew Reinheit was sincere. “The dokkaebis call this a ‘tomb’ but not me. I became a blood-stained demon after many years but I believe real life can only bloom after the scenario has disappeared.”
“因此，我创造了天堂。”我知道Reinheit是真诚的。“多卡比斯把这称为‘坟墓’，但我不这么称呼。许多年后，我变成了一个血迹斑斑的恶魔，但我相信现实生活只有在情节消失后才能开花。”
The words were filled with deep emotions. I might’ve been caught if I hadn’t read the original novel.
这些文字充满了深深的情感，如果我没有读过原著，我可能会被抓住。
「 The purest evil. 」
“最纯粹的邪恶”
That was what Yoo Jonghyuk called Reinheit.
这就是YooJonghyuk所说的Reinheit。
“Constellation Kim Dokja. You want to go to the next scenario.”
“金星座，你想进入下一个场景。”
“That’s right.”
“没错。”
“Stop. Such a thing doesn’t exist.” As expected, this was what he wanted. “I’ve lived for 800 years and it isn’t the first time I’ve seen someone like you.”
“别说了。这种东西根本不存在。”不出所料，这正是他想要的。“我已经活了800年，这不是我第一次见到像你这样的人了。”
“…”
“ ... ”
“Numerous strong people have found hidden scenarios but none have cleared Dark Castle. Everyone becomes desperate and frustrated by the void of this scenario.” Reinhart continued speaking, “I don’t want you to be like them.”
“许多强大的人已经发现了隐藏的情节，但没有一个人清除了黑暗城堡。每个人都因为这种空虚感而变得绝望和沮丧。”莱因哈特继续说道，“我不希望你像他们一样。”
“What do you want?”
“你想要什么?”
“Constellation Kim Dokja. Please protect Paradise with me. I need your help.”
“金星座。请和我一起保护天堂。我需要你的帮助。”
I stood silently by his side and touched the petals of the Perpetual Motion. Before the surprised Reinheit could stop me, the trembling flower quickly shriveled and the fruit fell. The fallen fruit suddenly became rotten and rolled down the hillside.
我静静地站在他身边，抚摸着永动机的花瓣。在雷海特惊讶地阻止我之前，颤抖的花儿很快萎缩了，果实掉了下来。落下的水果突然腐烂，滚下山坡。
The guard passing by saw it but didn’t pay much attention. It was because they had no intention of cutting out the rotten part of Paradise.
路过的警卫看见了，但没有注意。这是因为他们没有打算把天堂腐烂的部分砍掉。
“U-Ugh… release me! It is wrong!”
“放开我!这是不对的!”
“I didn’t steal anything!”
“我什么也没偷!”
The criminals of Paradise were being transported to the underground area below the hill. I knew where they were being dragged.
天堂的罪犯们正被运往山下的地下区域。我知道他们被拖到哪里去了。
[Some constellations are laughing unpleasantly.]
[有些星座不愉快地笑着]
Just as permanent institutions didn’t exist, Paradise wasn’t free. They would probably become Paradise’s fertilizer. It was just like the rotten fruit became the plant’s fertilizers.
正如永久机构不存在一样，天堂也不是自由的。他们可能会成为天堂的肥料。就像腐烂的水果变成了植物的肥料。
A small earthquake occurred deep underground. It seemed to be the cry of a terrible monster.
地下深处发生了一场小地震，这似乎是一个可怕的怪物的叫声。
I told him, “Reinheit, there is no Paradise. A permanent institution can’t exist.”
我告诉他，“Reinheit，没有天堂，永久的机构不可能存在。”
Reinheit didn’t say anything. It looked like he was trying to test me. However, he would soon regret it.
Reinheit什么也没说，看起来他是想考验我，然而，他很快就会后悔的。
“Give me the ‘next’ scenario.”
“给我一个‘下一步’的设想。”
A look of panic appeared in Reinheit’s eyes for the first time.
雷海特的眼睛里第一次出现了惊慌的神色。
“I know that you found it 700 years ago. To be exact, you and a few strong people have found it.”
“我知道你是在700年前发现它的。确切地说，你和一些强人已经找到了它。”
“How do you…”
“你怎么......”
“You have even challenged the scenario. Isn’t that right?”
“你甚至挑战了这种情况，对吗?”
“…”
“ ... ”
“However, you failed and survived by yourself. Then this Paradise was made.”
“然而，你失败了，靠自己活了下来。于是这个乐园就建成了。”
I didn’t miss the trembling in his fingertips as he looked after the petals. He said he created this place to help people find life.
我并不怀念他看着花瓣时指尖的颤抖。他说他创造这个地方是为了帮助人们寻找生命。
It wasn’t true. This was just a refuge for an impossible scenario.
这不是真的，这只是一个不可能发生的情况的避难所。
“All the scenarios of the Star Stream exist for stimulation. There is no stimulation in Paradise. Everything is too peaceful.”
“所有星流的场景都是为了刺激而存在的。天堂里没有刺激。一切都太平静了。”
“…”
“ ... ”
“Don’t believe that the deal with the dokkaebi will last forever. The Star Stream will never allow this space to exist for a long time.
“不要相信与多卡比的交易会永远持续下去。星流永远不会允许这个空间长时间存在。
Reinheit was quiet for a while before slowly opening his mouth. “…Constellation Kim Dokja. What else do you know?”
Reinheit沉默了一会儿，然后慢慢地张开了嘴。“......星座金道佳。你还知道什么?”
His tone had changed. A faint but scary energy was flowing from him. His attitude towards me had changed from this conversation.
他的语气变了。一股微弱但可怕的能量从他身上涌出。从这次谈话中，他对我的态度发生了变化。
It changed from a helper he was anticipating to an enemy more threatening than anyone else.
它从一个帮手变成了一个比任何人都更有威胁的敌人。
“All of it, even things you don’t know.”
“所有的一切，甚至是你不知道的事情。”
I saw a dark cloud coming from afar.
我看见一片乌云从远处飘来。
In such a situation, there was no chance of a cloud coming in. Thus, this rain cloud was definitely under the direction of the dokkaebis. They were sitting around and watching everything, even if they weren’t interfering.
在这种情况下，是不可能有云进来的。因此，这片雨云肯定是在多卡比斯的指引下。他们坐在那里看着一切，即使他们没有干涉。
It was because this world was a scenario even without a scenario. I sighed lightly and prepared for the end of the tragedy.
