I see almost everybody’s missing Deception, today let’s talk about him. *I’ll write word-for-word ungrammatical translation between【】 毁人不倦[huǐ rén bú juàn]【destroy/disrupt people no tired/bored】 Since there are so many homophones in Chinese, we play a lot with puns. And in this case, 毁人不倦[huǐ rén bú juàn] and 诲人不倦[huì rén bú juàn]【teach/tutor people no tired/bored】are partial homophones(the tone of the first syllable “hui” are different). 诲人不倦[huì rén bú juàn] is a set-phrase(Chinese idiom) as I said yesterday. It comes from a very famous Chinese canon— Confucian Analects—you may have already heard of before. In Book VII: Shu R, Chapter 2 Confucius's humble estimate of himself. The Master said, "The silent treasuring up of knowledge; learning without satiety; and instructing others without being wearied:-- which one of these things belongs to me?” In general this is a very kind and respectful way to describe or praise a teacher/tutor/educationist/professor. But if we change the first word of the idiom from “teach” to “destroy/disrupt”, well, you know. It’s quiet ironic but very much appropriate for Mò Fán’s character—he’s pretty patient and resistant when scrap picking, or, confronting recruitment.😂 Again, I need to state, translators have done a great job. Just imagine if we translate his name faithfully, it’s gonna be like this:(cut from Chapter 464) Like a helicopter, Lord Grim flew in Deception’s direction. ⬇️ Like a helicopter, [my lord, please don’t tease at the drunk soldiers] flew in [destroying others without being wearied]’s direction. LOL
Hey hey hey! Lord Grim and Go Forth's fight is great. XD It's like fighting 1v24. Hahahaha. But it actually took 4 chapters to defeat Go Forth. As expected of Lord Grim's 120 low level skills. Hahaha. Wouldn't it be too labor for Ye Xiu who's already aging? XD Nomyummi-sama actually uploaded 4 chapters leaving no spaces for cliffhangers. I'm happy. :) I wish I could support her too! Deym. XD Are they looking down on Steamed Bun Invasion? He's better when he's at team plays, right? After all their record breaking and scrap picking and killing bosses, this Team Everlasting should give way to God Ye Qiu!! Thank you for the chapters! :)
