大風紀官賽諾的名聲,並不限於教令院之內。
The name of the General Mahamatra has traveled well beyond the Akademiya's walls.
道成林中的巡林官說,他曾看見大風紀官在深夜的密林間無聲穿行;
According to a Forest Watcher in the Avidya Forest, he once caught a glimpse of this General Mahamatra quietly traveling through the woods in the middle of the night.
一位居住在水天叢林外圍的人清楚地記得,有一位白髮的少年向他討了一碗水喝,然後獨自揹著行囊向深處走去;
A person living on the outskirts of Apam Woods can still clearly remember how a white-haired teenager asked them for a bowl of water, before venturing deep into the forest alone with just a traveling pack on his back.
在豐饒綠洲休憩的冒險家宣稱自己曾為賽諾指路,但大風紀官要去的地方魔物叢生;
綠洲Oasis
Adventurers resting in Sobek Oasis claim to have given directions to Cyno, though the area he was heading to had been packed with monsters.
即使是那些在大赤沙海中無法無天的傭兵和盜寶團們,在大風紀官面前也不敢造次。那支因為窩藏違令學者而湮滅於黃沙中的傭兵團,就是這些狂徒們的前車之鑑。
湮滅annihilate
Even the proudest mercenaries and Treasure Hoarders in the Great Red Sand dare not make things difficult for the General Mahamatra, having learned this lesson well from the example of a mercenary group that was annihilated in the desert for sheltering wanted researchers.
但對落入賽諾手中的罪犯們而言,對大風紀官的敬畏則來自於另一方面。
敬畏reverence
However, for those criminals who have fallen into the hands of Cyno, their reverence for the General Mahamatra usually comes from another aspect of his character.
在逃離教令院時,犯人們一般都慌不擇路,有時甚至會誤入某處險境無法逃出。
誤入stray into
When escaping from the Akademiya, criminals tend to flee in an extreme panic, and can sometimes stray into perilous places.
但追捕而來的賽諾卻從不會任憑這些犯人自食惡果,而是會果斷下場營救。只為將犯人安全帶回教令院接受審判。
自食惡果suffer the consequences
Yet, instead of letting them suffer the consequences, Cyno will come to their rescue without hesitation, just so that he can bring them back to the Akademiya to face their proper punishment.
一位和賽諾並肩跨越了大赤沙海的犯人在受審前曾詢問賽諾,他這樣做有什麼意義,賽諾回答道:
Once, a criminal who had crossed the Great Red Sand with Cyno asked him about the point of doing all this. Cyno replied,
「只有教令能審判你,而我的職責,就是將你帶回去交予它審判。」
"Only the law can judge you, and my role here is to bring you to face the scales."
這位畢業於伐護末那學院的學者在出獄後,將自己和賽諾一同經歷的那段冒險寫成了一篇名為《大惡人》的小說,至今都是教令院內部的熱門讀物。
大惡人Goon
熱門讀物bestseller
After being released from prison, the researcher, who had been a Vahumana graduate, turned their adventures returning to the Akademiya into a novel titled "The Goon," which remains a bestseller in the Akademiya.
這位學者甚至被伐護末那學院請去開了一次講座,詳細論述了一番書中為何如此描述「正義」。
The researcher was even invited by Vahumana to give a lecture, during which they went into great detail about the portrayal of "justice" in the book.
但賽諾表示,書內的一些情節太過誇張了,他們並沒有遇見什麼赤王后裔製造的魔物,也沒有誤入沙漠底部的活體迷宮,更沒有在巨大蠕蟲的肉褶中躲避沙暴。
活體迷宮living labyrinth
巨大蠕蟲humongous sandworm
If you ask Cyno, however, he would say that certain parts of the book were heavily exaggerated. In truth, they did not encounter any monsters created by the descendants of King Deshret, nor did they stray into a living labyrinth at the bottom of the desert or survive a sandstorm in the folds of a humongous sandworm.
不過賽諾也同時表示,至少學者在書中對自己罪行的描述十分準確,值得稱讚,以後勿要再犯。
Nevertheless, Cyno did appreciate the candidness with which the author described their own crimes, and would like to remind them to not commit such crimes ever again.
