Yoo Jonghyuk’s comment on becoming the 73rd demon king was a line from Ways of Survival.
柳永玉关于成为第73位恶魔之王的评论来自于《生存之道》。
I watched the reactions of the council members with a bit of excitement.
我有点兴奋地观察了委员会成员的反应。
“That, I mean…”
“那个，我是说......”
It was strange. In Ways of Survival, everyone had clearly gone, “Ohhh!” Everyone didn’t show the dramatic reaction I expected. Then I heard a voice.
这很奇怪。在《生存之道》一书中，每个人都明显地说:“噢!”每个人都没有表现出我期待的戏剧性反应。然后我听到一个声音。
「 The demon king of the 73rd Demon Realm! There was a man who spoke such words. Irene and the other members of the civil council were in great shock. 」
「第七十三界恶魔王!」！有一个人说过这样的话。艾琳和民政委员会的其他成员都大为震惊
That brat, when did it wake up? It said it was sleepy and then went away… 「 On the other hand, Kim Dokja felt somewhat stronger. 」
那个臭小子，什么时候醒的？“另一方面，金道嘉感觉有些强壮”
…Eh?
...嗯？
「 It was a habit he had since his school days. In important moments of his life or in moments when his self-esteem fell, Kim Dokja would say, “I am Yoo Jonghyuk.”」
「这是他自上学以来的习惯。」。在他生命中的重要时刻或自尊心受挫的时刻，金道佳会说:“我是柳永久约克”
I had a bitter taste in my mouth as I endured the harassment of the Fourth Wall, who exposed my black history, Damn, I couldn’t do anything to this brat.
我嘴里有一种苦涩的味道，因为我忍受着第四堵墙的骚扰，他们揭露了我的黑人历史，该死，我不能对这个小鬼做任何事。
“The council members should leave for a moment. I have to talk to him for a while.”
“理事会成员应该离开一会儿。我必须和他谈一会儿。”
Aileen thought about something before making a decision. Jang Hayoung and the members of the civil council disappeared out the door. Aileen dragged a chair over to my operating table.
爱玲在做决定之前想了想。张海英和公民委员会的成员消失在门外。爱玲拖着一把椅子来到我的手术台前。
I asked her, “Can you release this first? I’m not in a state where I can talk.”
我问她，“你能先放开这个吗?我现在不方便说话。”
However, Aileen didn’t release my straps. It meant she didn’t trust me yet.
然而，艾琳没有松开我的皮带，这意味着她还不相信我。
“You said you would become the demon king.”
“你说过你会成为恶魔之王。”
“Yes.” I nodded once.
“是的。”我点了点头。
“Do you know what that means?”
“你知道这意味着什么吗?”
“It literally means to be king of the 73rd Demon Realm.”
“它的字面意思是成为第73个恶魔王国的国王。”
“And?”
“然后呢?”
“It means I will receive excessive attention from the other 72 demon kings.”
“这意味着我将受到其他72位魔王的过度关注。”
In fact, I was a bit nervous. I didn’t have a very favourable relationship with the demon kings yet.
事实上，我有点紧张，我和魔王的关系还不是很好。
Aileen looked at my face and sighed. “I took a peek at your stories while treating you… I don’t know what the hell are you are thinking.”
爱玲看着我的脸，叹了口气。“我给你治病的时候看了一眼你的故事......我不知道你到底在想什么。”
“What’s the problem?”
“有什么问题吗?”
“…Duke Syswitz is strong. Maybe even stronger than you think.”
“......塞斯维兹公爵很强大。也许比你想象的还要强大。”
Aileen’s tone was calm, unlike her previous confused appearance. Indeed, there was a reason she survived for so long in the Demon World.
爱玲的语气很平静，不像她以前那种困惑的样子。事实上，她在恶魔世界活了这么久是有原因的。
“It is natural. He is a duke.”
“这很自然，他是一位公爵。”
The dukes were the more powerful existences after the demon kings in the Demon World.
在恶魔世界中，公爵们是继恶魔之王之后更为强大的存在。
They were located at the top of the Demon World. Some of them had the power approaching the highest level of the upper-grade constellations and they certainly weren’t shallow opponents. Aileen’s evaluation was fair.
它们位于恶魔世界的顶端。他们中的一些人拥有接近最高等级星座的力量，他们当然不是肤浅的对手。爱玲的评价是公正的。
“I understand your confidence. I’ve already confirmed that you have amazing stories.
“我理解你的自信，我已经确认你有令人惊叹的故事。
She had repaired my stories and had a certain estimate of my strength. Time was short so she couldn’t identify all the stories I had hidden. She probably saw a few legendary stories at most. This meeting might be because she saw some possibilities in my stories.
她修补了我的故事，对我的力量有了一定的估计。时间紧迫，她无法辨认出我隐藏的所有故事。她可能最多只看过几个传奇故事。这次见面可能是因为她在我的故事中看到了一些可能性。
Aileen continued calmly, “First, I need to know that you are a trustworthy person.”
爱玲继续平静地说:“首先，我需要知道你是一个值得信赖的人。”
“I will make an Oath of Existence.”
“我将发誓生存。”
“The things we talk about here can’t leak out.”
“我们在这里谈论的事情不能泄露出去。”
We made an Oath of Existence with our hands facing each other. It was an oath made on their souls. The person who broke this oat would die from their soul burning up. I had previously made this oath with Yoo Jonghyuk.
我们两手相对，立下生存的誓言。这是对他们灵魂的誓言。打破这件衣服的人会死于灵魂的燃烧。我以前曾与柳钟玉一起宣过誓。
I opened my mouth, “I don’t want you to talk about my identity.”
我张开嘴，“我不想让你谈论我的身份。”
“I’m aware of that. Don’t worry. All council members who participated in the repair share the oath.”
“我知道。别担心。所有参与修复的理事会成员都宣读了誓言。”
Aileen let out a small sigh and then opened her mouth like she was whispering. “Our civil council has been waiting for an opportunity to destroy the Factory.”
爱玲轻轻地叹了口气，然后张开嘴，好像在说悄悄话。“我们的公民委员会一直在等待机会来摧毁工厂。”
The Factory was the core of the industrial complex and the backbone of its power. Trying to destroy this place was an obvious goal.
工厂是工业联合体的核心和动力的支柱。试图摧毁这个地方是显而易见的目标。
I had read it in Ways of Survival but I decided to ask. There was no way to read Ways of Survival immediately so it was important to get the information directly.
我读过《生存之道》，但我决定问一问。没有办法立即阅读《生存之道》，所以直接获取信息很重要。
Aileen asked, “Are you going to drive out the nobles?”
爱玲问:“你要赶走贵族吗?”
“Yes.”
“是的。”
“You are a returnee. Why bother interfering with the ecology of the Demon World?”
“你是回归者，为什么要干涉恶魔世界的生态呢?”
“I’m not a returnee.”
“我不是返回者。”
In a sense, there was no word more accurate.
在某种意义上，没有比这更准确的词了。
“I see.”
“我明白了。”
Not all returnee completed the dimensional movement scenario and returned to their hometown. Some returnees failed the scenario and some hated their homes. Those who gave up returning to their homes had to make a new home. No matter how terrible a place was, they chose to live there.
并不是所有的回归者都完成了空间迁移并回到了他们的家乡。一些归国人员没能做到这一点，还有一些人憎恨自己的家园。那些放弃返回家园的人不得不建立一个新家园。不管一个地方有多糟糕，他们都选择住在那里。
“There have been several attempts to kill the duke,” Aileen told him.
“有好几次企图杀死公爵，”爱玲告诉他。
“It looks like they failed if he is still alive.”
“如果他还活着，看起来他们失败了。”
“…It wasn’t a bad plan. Until they all failed. Some of them were masters from the First Murim and others were the strongest people on their planet.”
“......这个计划不错。直到他们都失败了。他们中的一些人是第一个穆林的主人，其他人是他们星球上最强壮的人。”
“How did you get those people?”
“你是怎么抓到那些人的?”
“It was a similar situation to you. They failed or were expelled from their home scenario.”
“情况和你类似。他们要么失败了，要么被赶出家门。”
It was a fact I already knew. This was the reason why Aileen treated the ‘exiles.’ It was a means of collecting stronger citizens to fight against the ruler of the Syswitz Industrial Complex. She used the attribute Story Expert in this form.
这是我已经知道的事实。这就是为什么爱玲对待流亡者的原因这是一个手段，招集更强大的市民反对统治者的赛斯维兹工业综合体。她在这个表单中使用了StoryExpert这个属性。
Aileen shook her head with a slightly weary expression. “Most of them couldn’t even make it through the escorts, let alone reach the duke.”
爱玲带着一种略显疲倦的表情摇摇头。“他们中的大多数人甚至无法通过护卫队，更不用说接近公爵了。”
“Are there many escorts?”
“有很多陪护吗?”
“In the Factory, there are hundreds of barons and lower ranked nobles. There are 10 earls and two marquis.”
工厂里有几百个男爵和低级贵族，有十个伯爵和两个侯爵
The many escorts were a problem.
很多陪护人员是个问题。
A lower-grade noble was still more powerful than average incarnations. In addition, all those earl level or above could operate the power of the story. The biggest problem was that the duke would be stronger than the sum of all the escorts. I replied like it was inconsequential.
一个低等的贵族仍然比一般的化身更有力量。此外，所有伯爵级或以上的人都可以操纵故事的力量。最大的问题是，公爵比所有陪护人员的总和还要强大。我回答道，好像这无关紧要。
“It is worth a try.”
“值得一试。”
“The other exiles said that as well.”
“其他流亡者也这么说。”
“I’m stronger than they are.”
“我比他们更强大。”
Yoo Jonghyuk would say this and I was currently Yoo Jonghyuk. However, Aileen didn’t know who Yoo Jonghyuk was.
柳钟玉会这么说，我现在叫柳钟玉，但是艾琳不知道柳钟玉是谁。
“If you were really strong, you wouldn’t have failed the scenario.”
“如果你真的很强壮，你就不会失败。”
There was no way to refute it right now. The situation was too complicated to explain right now. Even so, Aileen still had some expectations towards me. “First of all, I’d like you to prove your skills.”
现在没有办法反驳它。情况太复杂了，现在无法解释。即便如此，爱玲还是对我抱有一些期望。“首先，我希望你能证明自己的能力。”
“Something like this?”
“像这样吗?”
I released the straps on me like I had been waiting. The straps broke with a loud sound. Aileen seemed surprised but didn’t panic. “…The other exiles did that as well. I have to make sure you can deal with the nobles.”
我松开了带子，就像我一直在等待一样。带子一声响就断了。爱玲似乎很惊讶，但并不惊慌。“其他流亡者也是这样做的。我必须确保你能对付那些贵族。”
“What do you want?”
“你想要什么?”
“A suitable opponent has visited Syswitz.”
“一个合适的对手造访了塞斯维茨。”
“You are talking about the envoy from the Gilobat Industrial Complex?”
“你说的是吉洛巴特工业园区的特使?”
“Yes.”
“是的。”
I laughed. “I can see what you are thinking.”
我笑了起来，“我知道你在想什么。”
Aileen nodded. “I’m sorry but this is the only way.”
艾琳点点头，“对不起，但这是唯一的办法。”
The 73rd Demon Realm was currently in a confused state due to the rumours of the demon king. The meeting between the Syswitz Industrial Complex and Gilobat Industrial Complex was designed to calm the chaos.
由于恶魔王的传言，第73恶魔王国目前处于混乱状态。Syswitz工业综合体和Gilobat工业综合体之间的会议旨在平息混乱。
“The most dangerous enemy is always the closest ally.”
“最危险的敌人总是最亲密的盟友。”
If I could take advantage of the opportunity to ruin the alliance, it was possible to divide the Syswitz Industrial Complex.
如果我可以利用这个机会来破坏这个联盟，那么就有可能分裂斯威士工业联合体。
Aileen was looking at the long-term and didn’t want to miss this chance. Even if it failed, there wouldn’t be significant damage.
爱玲看得很长远，不想错过这个机会。即使它失败了，也不会造成重大损害。
However, I didn’t intend to be exploited. “Let’s make a deal first.”
然而，我并不想被利用。“让我们先做个交易吧。”
“Okay. What are your conditions?”
“好吧，你的条件是什么?”
“Please repair my body every time I ask. Of course, it is for free.”
“每次我要求修复我的身体，当然是免费的。”
I had to constantly consume story fragments until my physical body became stronger. I didn’t know when a collision between stories would occur. For the time being, I needed Aileen’s help.
我不得不不断地阅读故事片段，直到我的身体变得更强壮。我不知道故事之间什么时候会发生碰撞。眼下，我需要艾琳的帮助。
“That is nothing if you succeed. That’s all?”
“如果你成功了，那就什么都不是了。就这样?”
“There is one more thing.” In fact, this was the main point. “Give me a ‘scenario.'”
“还有一件事。”事实上，这就是重点。“给我一个‘场景’。”
“…Scenario?”
“......情景?”
This was the reason why I visited the Syswitz Industrial Complex in the first place.
这就是为什么我参观了Syswitz工业综合体的首要原因。
“I need your revolutionary scenario.”
“我需要你的革命性方案。”

The Demon World was an area that wasn’t popular with constellations since ancient times.
恶魔世界自古以来就不受星座的欢迎。
It was due to the bad relationship between the constellations and demon kings. In the first place, most incarnations who entered the Demon World were ‘losers.’
这是由于星座和魔王之间的恶劣关系造成的。首先，大多数进入恶魔世界的化身都是“失败者”
I left the operating room and the first place I saw was the pub where the citizens gathered.
我离开了手术室，第一个看到的地方就是市民们聚集的酒吧。
“Shit, this alcohol tastes sour.”
“妈的，这酒喝起来是酸的。”
The sighs of the citizens came from all over the place. It was late in the evening.
市民们的叹息声从四面八方传来，已经是深夜了。
The workers and incarnations who came back from working all day at the Factory gathered over drinks. Their faces were distorted from the bitter aftertaste. The alcohol of the Demon World was more bitter than Earth. I remembered reading about it in Ways of Survival.
在工厂工作了一整天回来的工人和化身聚在一起喝酒。他们的脸因余味苦涩而变形了。恶魔世界的酒比地球更苦。我记得在《生存之道》中读到过。
「 Kim Dokja thought: Who among them is the revolutionary? 」
“金道嘉心想:其中谁是革命者?”
In the Demon World, the scenarios still progressed. The Star Stream didn’t neglect the story of any area. In particular, one of the main scenarios here, the ‘Revolutionary Scenario’ was a scenario that the dukes of the Demon World were also watching.
在恶魔世界里，情节仍在发展。《星河传》没有忽视任何地区的故事。特别是，这里的一个主要场景，革命场景是恶魔世界的公爵们也在观看的一个场景。
-I don’t know how you know about that scenario but it is hard for me to help you right away. I don’t know who the ‘revolutionary’ are. Without the identity of the revolutionary, it isn’t possible to transfer the scenario.
我不知道你是怎么知道这种情况的，但是我很难马上帮你。我不知道谁是革命者。没有革命者的身份，是不可能转移的情节。
-Do you have no information at all?
你一点消息都没有吗？
-Even if I receive information, the revolutionary will change every month. Honestly, who would confess to being a revolutionary? It is unknown who is a spy…
-即使我收到消息，革命每个月都会改变。老实说，谁会承认自己是革命者呢？谁是间谍还不知道..。
These were Aileen’s words. Still, if my prediction was correct, the revolutionary was definitely among them.
这是爱玲的原话。不过，如果我的预测是正确的，那么这位革命者肯定就在其中。
「 The Revolutionary scenario is the main scenario of the Demon World. The scenario number is different every time but those who welcome the scenario event are fixed. They are the ruling classes of the Demon World. 」
「革命场景是恶魔世界的主要情节」。场景数量每次都不同，但是那些欢迎场景事件的人是固定的。他们是恶魔世界的统治阶级
I felt fortunate to have the Fourth Wall at this time. I might not have the Ways of Survival txt but it would remind me of my memories.
我感到很幸运，在这个时候有了第四堵墙。我可能没有《生存之道》的文本，但它会让我想起我的记忆。
-The citizens here remember what happened to the last person who declared himself a revolutionary. That’s why you shouldn’t poke around people. Everyone will be nervous.
-这里的公民记得上一个宣布自己为革命者的人发生了什么事。这就是为什么你不应该到处打听别人。每个人都会紧张。
Aileen told me this but I couldn’t wait. My body was repaired and I could hold out against the exile penalty, but this was only for a few days.
艾琳告诉了我这件事，但我等不及了。我的身体得到了修复，我可以坚持反对流放的惩罚，但这只是几天而已。
「 Kim Dokja thought: I have to get the Revolutionary scenario so I can go back to the original scenario. 」
“金东子认为:我必须得到革命场景，才能回到原来的场景。”
At this moment, a strange voice entered my ears.
这时，一个奇怪的声音进入了我的耳朵。
“Excuse me, this is the first time I’m seeing your face.”
“对不起，这是我第一次看到你的脸。”
