“…Uh.”
“呃。”
「 The bones of the body seemed to be crushed and the skin was stiff, like a dead animal’s skin. 」
“尸体的骨头似乎被压碎，皮肤像死动物的皮肤一样僵硬”
I listened to the Fourth Wall’s words as I slowly woke up. The obnoxious voice of the Fourth Wall was now welcome.
我慢慢地醒来，听着第四堵墙的话。第四道墙那讨厌的声音现在受到欢迎了。
「 I am alive. Kim Dokja thought this. 」
“我还活着。金道嘉这样想。”
I heard Fourth Wall so the plan seemed to be a success. In fact, I couldn’t really say it was a success.
我听到了第四道墙的声音，所以这个计划看起来是成功的。事实上，我不能说这是一个成功。
It was natural. The ‘fate’ they gave me was the death of ‘Incarnation Kim Dokja’. It was natural that the ‘constellation’ Kim Dokja wouldn’t die.
这很自然。他们给我的命运就是化身金道佳的死亡。这是很自然的‘星座’金道佳不会死亡。
If I was going to disappear so easily, I wouldn’t have built up my stories and become a constellation. The problem was that I lost my body and survived as a ‘constellation’…
如果我要如此轻易地消失，我就不会编造我的故事，变成一个星座。问题是，我失去了我的身体，作为一个“星座”存活下来.....。
“…Where am I?”
“...我在哪里?”
The surrounding area was filled with ruined buildings and roads. It was a familiar scene.
周围到处是废弃的建筑物和道路，这是一个熟悉的场景。
“This…?”
“这个......?”
Not long after I spoke, I realized the situation I was in. I looked up at the air. The night sky had always been filled with the light of countless constellations. Now there was nothing there.
在我说完之后不久，我意识到我所处的处境。我抬头看着天空。夜空中总是充满了无数星座的光芒。现在什么都没有了。
I was surprised by the deep words I was speaking to myself. I watched the night sky and laughed blankly. “Haha…”
我对自己说的深奥的话语感到惊讶。我看着夜空，茫然地笑了起来。“哈哈......”
Usually, numerous indirect messages from the constellations should’ve appeared.
通常，来自星座的大量间接信息应该已经出现了。
For example, the Great Sage the Equal of Heaven who liked it when I talked to myself or the Abyssal Black Flame Dragon… there was also the Demon-like Judge of Fire who liked me for some reason. It was normal for someone to answer but no one answered my monologue.
例如，大圣天平，他喜欢我自言自语，或者深渊黑焰龙......还有像恶魔一样的火审判官，他因为某种原因喜欢我。有人回答是正常的，但是没有人回答我的独白。
There wasn’t the Bald General of Justice polishing his head, the One-Eyed Maitreya who would throw his eyepatch if he was bored or the shameless Lady of the Brocade Sleep.
没有正义的光头将军擦亮他的头，没有独眼弥勒佛无聊时会扔掉他的眼罩，也没有无耻的织锦睡眠女神。
The messages of the constellations disappeared and only a laughably terrible loneliness was left behind.
星座的信息消失了，只留下一种可笑的可怕的孤独。
「 Kim Dokja thought: I’m really alone. 」
“金独子心想:我真的很孤独”
[You are currently expelled from the scenario.]
[你现在被驱逐出场景。]
I slowly looked around the surroundings. Despite being expelled from the scenario, living beings would go to the nearest ‘outside the scenario’ area.
我慢慢地环顾四周。尽管被驱逐出场景，生物会去最近的“场景之外”的地区。
[You are currently in an area outside the scenario.]
[你现在处于一个场景之外的区域。]
The outside the scenario area that I was currently standing in was a very familiar place to me.
我现在所处的场景之外的区域对我来说是一个非常熟悉的地方。
「 Seoul. 」
“首尔”
This place was Seoul’s Gwanghwamun square. It was the place where War of the Kings took place and I crushed the Absolute Throne.
这个地方就是首尔的光化门广场。这是发生国王战争的地方，我粉碎了绝对王位。
The fact that Seoul had become an area outside the scenario…
事实上，首尔已经成为一个场景之外的地区.....。
The party members… thankfully, they escaped unharmed.
党员们......谢天谢地，他们安然无恙地逃脱了。
I looked at the place where the former Seoul Dome was located and felt overwhelmed. The place that used to be covered with a translucent membrane was now covered by a thick barrier.
我看着前首尔圆顶体育馆所在的地方，感到不知所措。过去被半透明薄膜覆盖的地方现在被一道厚厚的屏障所覆盖。
Now the ‘Seoul’ scenario was completely over. The party members were moving onto new scenarios without me and making new stories. From there, they would continue to live.
现在首尔的局面完全结束了。党员们在没有我的情况下进入新的场景，制造新的故事。在那里，他们将继续生活下去。
…Maybe this was how it turned out.
也许事情就是这样的。
「 Kim Dokja was glad but also somewhat lonely. 」
“金多克贾很高兴，但也有些孤独。”
I thought about the party members for a moment before slowly turning around.
我想了想党员们，然后慢慢转过身来。
「The lonely Kim Dokja had something to do. For that reason, he chose a miserable death. 」
“孤独的金多加有事要做，因此选择了悲惨的死亡。”
***

「 While walking on the streets of Seoul, Kim Dokja was immersed in his memories. Whenever he went, he saw where he performed the scenarios with his party members. Kim Dokja once again realized that he had become part of Ways of Survival. He was obviously living this story. 」 “…This is very touching but shouldn’t you stop now? How long are you going to keep muttering?”
「走在首尔街头，金道佳沉浸在回忆中」。无论他去哪里，他都能看到他和他的党员们在哪里表演这些场景。金道佳再次意识到，他已经成为生存之道的一部分。他显然生活在这个故事里。」“......这是非常感人的，但是你现在不应该停止吗？你还要嘀咕多久?”
「 Kim Dokja was irritated by the poor Fourth Wall. 」
“金多克贾被可怜的第四堵墙惹恼了”
At first, it felt good to have someone beside me. However, I didn’t feel happy about having everything I did explained.
起初，有人在我身边感觉很好。然而，我并不高兴我所做的一切都得到了解释。
「 How much time has passed? Kim Dokja wanted to ask but no one could answer. 」
“过去多久了?金多佳想问，但无人回答。”
“Dammit. You can answer me.”
“该死，你可以回答我。”
I scolded him before deciding to look at my condition.
在决定考察我的情况之前，我斥责了他。
[Many of your stories have been damaged.]
你的许多故事都被毁了
[Your current body is completely collapsed.]
你现在的身体已经完全崩溃了
I had survived by using my status as a constellation but I had completely lost my physical body. In other words, my current existence wasn’t ‘flesh’ but a mass of incomplete stories.
我以星座的身份存活下来，但是我已经完全失去了我的肉体。换句话说，我现在的存在不是肉体，而是一大堆不完整的故事。
[Your current body is in a very dangerous condition.] [Methods to preserve your body can’t be found.]
[你现在的身体状况非常危险][保存你身体的方法找不到了]
It was an uneasy state where I could completely collapse if anyone touched me. This wasn’t living.
这是一种不安的状态，如果有人碰我，我就会完全崩溃，这不是生活。
I decided to try everything I could.
我决定尽我所能。
[Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint isn’t available in this area.]
[无所不知的读者视角在这个领域是不可用的。]
…As expected, it didn’t work.
不出所料，没有成功。
[You can’t communicate with your incarnation.]
[你无法与你的化身交流。]
This also didn’t work. I was expecting it but I was really weird because it didn’t work out. It felt like I was living alone in an area where no communication was possible.
这也没有起作用。我很期待，但我真的很奇怪，因为没有成功。那种感觉就像我独自生活在一个无法交流的地方。
Of course, my actual situation was worse than that.
当然，我的实际情况比这更糟糕。
[You can’t use the channel system.]
你不能使用频道系统
Since I was banished from the scenario, I naturally couldn’t access the channel and my contract with Bihyung was cancelled. I stared at the sky without stars and felt empty freedom.
由于我被排除在这个场景之外，我自然无法访问这个频道，我与必亨的合同也被取消了。我盯着没有星星的天空，感到空虚和自由。
…Now I was really alone. Once I realized this fact, a chill started to creep in.
...现在我真的是一个人了。一旦我意识到这个事实，一股寒意就开始侵袭我。
「 Nobody sees me and I can’t see anyone either. 」
“没人看见我，我也看不见任何人”
No, I wasn’t completely alone.
不，我并不是一个人。
「 In the midst of this, Kim Dokja suddenly realized. He felt a sense of existence through someone’s eyes. 」 “I’m not thinking such philosophical things, Idiot. Rather, how long are you going to keep this up?”
「在这一切中，金道佳突然意识到。他通过某人的眼睛感受到一种存在的感觉“我没有想这样的哲学问题，白痴。相反，你打算这样持续多久?”
「 The stupid Kim Dokja doesn’t know. Why the great Fourth Wall is doing this hard work. 」
“愚蠢的金道嘉不知道，为什么第四长城要做这样的艰苦工作。”
…What?
什么？
“Why can’t you just explain? What the hell are you? You are a skill right?”
“你为什么就不能解释一下呢?你到底是什么?你是一种技能，对吧?”
「 The stupid Kim Dokja is talking to the air. 」
“愚蠢的金多克贾正在对空通话”
It was a real jerk.
真是个混蛋。
「 Stupid Kim Dokja… 」
“愚蠢的金道嘉...”
“Can’t you stop? Do you want me to turn the skill off?”
“你不能停下来吗?你想让我把这个技能关掉吗?”
Then a sound was heard in the air.
这时空中传来一个声音。
「 The Fourth Wall asks, ‘Th en should I qui t?’ 」
“第四面墙问:‘我应该做什么?”’
I was a bit surprised. This brat, it could express itself more clearly now? Come to think of it, last time… “Yes, stop. I don’t want to be bothered right now.”
我有点吃惊。这个顽童，现在可以更清楚地表达自己了吗？回想起来，上次......“是的，停下来。我现在不想被打扰。”
[The exclusive skill ‘Fourth Wall’ is silent.]
[《第四道墙》的独家技巧是无声的]
The next moment, I regretted my choice. I felt the air around me freezing. It suddenly penetrated deeply into my bones. I felt the air in my lungs clogging up.
下一刻，我后悔自己的选择。我感到周围的空气冻僵了。它突然深深地穿透了我的骨头。我感到肺里的空气堵塞了。
“Cough…?”
“咳......?”
At this moment, something belatedly came to my mind. It was the reason why Vedas and Olympus sent me to the outside the scenario area.
就在这时，我的脑海里终于浮现出一些迟来的念头。这就是为什么吠陀和奥林巴斯派我到外面的方案领域。
It was due to this exact situation. It was a plot to kill ‘Incarnation Kim Dokja’ and deal with ‘Constellation Kim Dokja.’
就是因为这种情况。这是一起阴谋，目的是刺杀“化身金道嘉”，并与“星座金道嘉”打交道
“K-Kuoooock…”
“ k-kuoolock... ”
I tried to scream but there was no sound. I could breathe but I couldn’t breathe. It felt as if someone had squeezed my lungs and my breath was blocked. My head turned blank and my thoughts were erased one by one.
我试图尖叫，但是没有声音。我可以呼吸，但我不能呼吸。感觉好像有人挤压了我的肺，我的呼吸被阻塞了。我的头脑一片空白，我的思想一个接一个地被抹去。
The Star Stream was a world of stories. There were no exceptions, whether it was for incarnations or constellations. Every being existed through a ‘story.’ [The speed of the damage to your stories has increased!]
星流是一个充满故事的世界。无论是化身还是星座，都没有例外。每个生命都是通过一个故事存在的[你的故事受损的速度增加了!]
[Your existence has started to vanish.]
你的存在已经开始消失
In a place with no ‘stories’, nothing could exist. Even me.
在一个没有故事的地方，什么都不可能存在，即使是我。
‘Damn, save me!’
该死，救救我
I shouted while fearing that I would disappear. I could finally see why the Fourth Wall had such a big mouth. It kept speaking in order to save me. In a place where there were no stories, it kept me alive…
我边喊边害怕自己会消失。我终于明白为什么第四堵墙有这么一张大嘴了。它为了救我而不停地说话。在一个没有故事的地方，它让我活着..。
It kept telling me ‘stories.’
它一直在给我讲故事
[The exclusive skill ‘Fourth Wall’ is activated.] 「 The Fourth Wall says, “Je…rk.” 」
“第四堵墙”“第四堵墙上写着“我.....
I managed to start breathing again.
我又开始呼吸了。
“Pant, pant…”
“喘，喘......”
I knew that being banished from the scenario was terrible but I hadn’t expected it to be this much.
我知道从这个场景中被放逐是很可怕的，但是我没有想到会是这样。
Indeed, even Cheok Jungyeong couldn’t survive outside the scenario without the help of a nebula… damn, I thought too shallowly about the situation.
事实上，没有星云的帮助，即使是车俊英也无法在这个场景之外生存...该死，我对这个情况想得太肤浅了。
I thought I could move onto the first target area somehow if I gave up a few stories…
我想如果我放弃一些故事，我就可以以某种方式进入第一个目标区域。
It would’ve been hard for me to live if it hadn’t been for the Fourth Wall.
如果没有第四面墙，我的生活会很艰难。
「 Kim Dokja thought: I should never turn off the Fourth Wall again. 」
“金道嘉认为:我再也不应该关掉第四堵墙”
I couldn’t refute the words in my miserable mood.
在我悲惨的心情下，我无法反驳这些话。
“…By the way, how long can you keep it up?”
“......顺便问一下，你还能坚持多久?”
「 The Fourth Wall says, “No t lon g.” 」
“第四面墙上写着“无关””
Intense sparks appeared as the Fourth Wall spoke. Indeed, it would be strange that the Fourth Wall could cope alone with something that required the probability of a nebula.
第四面墙说话时，出现了激烈的火花。事实上，奇怪的是第四道墙竟然可以单独应付一些需要星云概率的东西。
I didn’t have much time. If I couldn’t finish my task in a timely manner, I would die here.
我没有多少时间，如果我不能按时完成任务，我就会死在这里。
At this moment, a noise was heard from somewhere. It was reminiscent of a vacuum cleaner…
就在这时，某个地方传来一阵噪音，让人想起了吸尘器..。
「 Kim Dokja knows what this is. 」
“金道佳知道这是什么”
“Yes, I know. The scenario cleaners.”
“是的，我知道。情景清除器。”
The appearance of a cleaner meant a major ‘clean-up’ of the scenario area had begun.
一个清洁工的出现意味着一个重大的“清理”场景区域已经开始。
「 Kim Dokja thought: Since the cleaning has begun, the Great Demon of the Horizon will soon reveal itself. The hyenas who wander through the ruins of the scenario can’t afford to miss out on these delicious ruins. 」
“金道佳心想:自从大扫除开始，地平线上的大恶魔很快就会现身。”。在这片废墟中游荡的鬣狗不能错过这些美味的废墟
It was amazing to read. However, before I met them, I had to find something first.
读起来很神奇，但是在我遇到他们之前，我必须先找到一些东西。
「 Kim Dokja picked up his pace. 」
“金多克贾加快了步伐”
I staggered and gradually sped up. Things reminiscent of small clouds were wandering around the streets. They were the scenario cleaners.
我摇摇晃晃，慢慢加速。让人想起小云的东西在街道上游荡。他们是情景清理者。
They were ones to watch out for but I ran without worrying. In any case, the cleaners were low and their recognition range was narrow. If I carefully avoided them, it wouldn’t be difficult to reach the target point without being noticed.
他们是值得注意的人，但我并不担心。无论如何，这些清洁剂都很低，而且识别范围很窄。如果我小心地避开他们，就不难在不被注意的情况下到达目标点。
I headed south of Gwanghwamun. Euljiro 3-ga, Chungmuro, Dongdae-gu, Yaksu, Geumho Station…
我向南前往光化门，Euljiro3-ga，Chungmuro，Dongdae-gu，药水，Geumho火车站..。
Like a salmon, I passed by the places I had been. Finally, I arrived at Oksu Station.
我像一条鲑鱼一样经过我去过的地方，最后到达了大津车站。
There, I faced the broken Dongho Bridge. I watched the broken bridge and memories passed through my head. This was the place where Yoo Jonghyuk dropped me into the mouth of an ichthyosaur.
在那里，我面对着断裂的东河大桥。我看着断桥，回忆在我的脑海中闪过。就是在这里，柳永玉把我丢进了一条鱼龙的嘴里。
I didn’t know if he was doing well right now. Well, he had Han Sooyoung to help him.
我不知道他现在好不好，他有韩素英帮忙。
…I had to hope.
我只能希望。
I leapt lightly across the broken bridge. In the past, it was a bridge that could only be crossed using Deus X Machina. Now a single leap was enough.
我轻盈地跳过断桥。在过去，这是一个桥梁，只能通过使用神秘机器。现在一跳就足够了。
It was a moment that showed how much had changed from the beginning of the scenario.
这一时刻表明，从一开始，情况发生了多大的变化。
However, I still had a long way to go. The things I had to cross were waiting for me at a distant much greater than the gap of this broken bridge.
然而，我还有很长的路要走。我必须跨越的东西正在遥远的地方等着我，比这座断桥的缺口还要大得多。
Finally, I reached a half broken subway. This was the start of all the scenarios. I looked at the appearance of the subway before entering and looking through the ruins.
最后，我到达了一个半坏的地铁站。这是所有场景的开始。在进入废墟之前，我看了看地铁的外观。
How long did I look? I finally found what I was looking for. It was an item box that was shining white. There was a short message left on the item box.
我看了多久？我终于找到了我要找的东西。这是一个闪着白光的箱子。物品盒上留了一条短信息。
-Kim Dokja, can I trust you? It was left as you requested. Thank you for being an incarnation of my channel.
-KimDokja，我能相信你吗？按你的要求留下了。谢谢你是我频道的化身。
It was very obvious who wrote the message.
很明显是谁写的这条信息。
-Please, be alive.
求求你，活着。
Of course. I wouldn’t die. I opened the item box. The box contained 300,000 coins and the items I asked to be purchased.
当然。我不会死的。我打开了那个箱子。盒子里装着30万枚硬币和我要求购买的物品。
[A new attribute has been acquired.]
[获得了一个新属性。]
[The item ‘Dokkaebi Egg’ has been acquired.] [The item ‘Unbroken Faith’ has been acquired.]
[“Dokkaebi蛋”物品已获得][“坚不可摧的信仰”物品已获得]
…
I grabbed all the items and left the subway. That guy was coming in the nick of time. I sat on the bridge and waited.
