## Recap

Shang Qinghua is shocked at Shen Qingqiu’s suggestion of a solution, at which he elaborates and says that it’ll work for them as long as they keep it a secret, and asks Shang Qinghua if he remembers a rare plant that only appears every one thousand years. Shang Qinghua points out that this describes likely hundreds of plants that Luo Binghe ate, which Shen Qingqiu notes to be self awareness at least, before he whispers the name of the plant to Shang Qinghua. At this, Shang Qinghua gave Shen Qingqiu a meaningful look, and mentioned how he always thought that Peerless Cucumber was a faithful reader who was just bad at expressing himself, especially to recall a plot point that was only ever referenced once. Shen Qingqiu ignores that comment and declares that, the following day, they would go out and find that plant. Shang Qinghua attempts to buy more time by saying how he forgot, but after Shen Qingqiu reminds him of how in a fear years both of them would be killed by Luo Binghe and Mobei-jun if they didn’t, he affirms he’ll find it by tomorrow. After a night of contemplating, he circles a location on the map, which he shows to Shen Qingqiu the next morning, and they head out.

On their journey, they travel by sword and by carriage, eating and playing along the way. The only unpleasant part of the experience was Shang Qinghua complaining about how he was the one doing all the work and spending all the money, at which Shen Qingqiu (from inside the carriage that Shang Qinghua was driving) points out that the money was Yue Qingyuan’s anyways. At that mention of the sect leader, Shang Qinghua is reminded of how the man asked him to watch over Shen Qingqiu before they left, calling him frail. With that, Shang Qinghua reminisces about how he finally understood the original Shang Qinghua’s pain: logistics people got no respect, and he was being treated like a nanny.

Before Shang Qinghua can retort, he freaks out at the sight of what appears to be a woman slithering on the ground, which causes Shen Qingqiu to join him in the driver’s seat. Knowing that Shang Qinghua couldn’t fight, he drew Xiu Ya and gave Shang Qinghua a bag of melon seeds to snack on and stay out of the way with, which the latter ate while they drove. After about an incense time, they realized they had come across the trail of Cang Qiong Mountain Sect’s Qian Cao Peak’s Dragon-Bone Cantaloupe seeds that Shang Qinghua was leaving behind, indicating they were going in a circle. Shang Qinghua suggested that they sprinkle a male virgin’s pee into the horse’s eye so they can escape, to which Shen Qingqiu says that the horses have dignity too and that there weren’t any virgins around. At Shang Qinghua’s silent scrutiny, he claims that ignoring his former self, Shang Qinghua wrote Shen Qingqiu’s character himself and should know better than everyone that he wasn’t a virgin. He had an affair in his youth and sought prostitutes as an adult, and according to Shen Qingqiu, Shang Qinghua was written the same way.

After a moment, Shen Qingqiu comes to an epiphany and goes into the carriage to grab something, but as soon as he does, something spooks Shang Qinghua, which Shen Qingqiu points out makes it clever enough to know to target the weaker member of the party. He also tells Shang Qinghua he shouldn’t be scared of something that he wrote, which Shang Qinghua trails off while saying how he doesn’t remember writing something like this. Shen Qingqiu shows him a map of where they are, and while Bai Lu Forest is barely the size of a dot, the map shows that Huan Hua Palace claimed it as part of their allotted territory, and thus their protective array was what was causing them to go in circles. Cang Qiong Mountain had similar arrays with their Heaven-Ascending Stairs that were thirteen thousand steps high, where one needed a disciple to escort them down if they attempted to unlawfully enter. Without such a guide, Shen Qingqiu and Shang Qinghua would keep going in circles.

Upon thinking about a guide, Shen Qingqiu called upon his System, which informed him that it was in Hibernation Mode and that he was speaking to the AI assistant, since the System was disconnected from the power source of Luo Binghe, and would be undergoing maintenance and updating until it reconnected. After realizing that Luo Binghe was the main power source, Shen Qingqiu asks Shang Qinghua to ask his System about it, which yields a similar response, showing how Luo Binghe was apparently the power source for all of the Systems and not just his own. That also meant that he couldn’t gain, or more importantly, lose B points while Luo Binghe was in the Abyss.

Shen Qingqiu was still thinking when he heard rustling in the bushes, to which he started to attack with Xiu Ya. The creature kept slipping away from him, but after a blinding flash of light that Shen Qingqiu did not cause, the creature leapt back and fled. Shang Qinghua pointed out how the fear of light made it more like a female ghost, but that he absolutely didn’t write one like this. Before they could argue about it, a youth dressed in white emerged from the woods and approached them. He stated that he was investigating fluctuations in the barrier, not knowing it was two immortal masters. Upon seeing him and deeming him quite handsome, Shen Qingqiu asked who this young hero was, which Shang Qinghua whispered to him that he left others very little dignity and that that was Gongyi Xiao. At that, Gongyi Xiao was a bit depressed, since he had still made second place and was the favorite to win, and thus had greeted many sect leaders alongside the Old Palace Master before the Immortal Alliance Conference.

Gongyi Xiao asked why they didn’t inform them of a visit beforehand, clearly treating Bai Lu Mountain as part of their sect territory despite it being on the border. Shen Qingqiu gave a vague response, trapping Gongyi Xiao in the social convention of it being improper to interrogate one's elders. After wavering for a moment, the boy asked for permission to assist them. Shen Qingqiu and Shang Qinghua had a quiet argument about this, with Shen Qingqiu claiming he could fight while Shang Qinghua pointed out he might not let them leave with the Sun-Moon Dew Mushroom, to which Shen Qingqiu claimed they could just leave since he couldn’t stop them anyways. Shang Qinghua asked if that would make their sects become hostile, Shen Qingqiu asked if he valued sect politics more than his own life, and suddenly both were on board and willing to let Gongyi Xiao come along and drive the carriage.

While he drove, he asked Shen Qingqiu why he caused such a fluctuation in the barrier when he could have easily broken it, to which Shen Qingqiu said that he wasn’t trying to break the barrier, he was trying to attack some strange demonic beast. Gongyi Xiao mentioned how there haven’t been any wild animal attacks or sightings from the nearby villages, let alone a demonic creature, to which Shen Qingqiu pondered about what might have attacked them. Gongyi Xiao affirmed that if it attacked again, he would deal with it. His words were sincere, since Shen Qingqiu’s head disciple had both surpassed his top ranking spot and had helped his sect siblings, he felt no lack of reverence to Luo Binghe. Shen Qingqiu, meanwhile, could not stop comparing Gongyi Xiao to Luo Binghe, and thinking that it was hard to not have a favorable impression of either of them.

## Changes Between Versions

### The Faelicy/Lily Translation (February 2020 version)

#### Larger Changes

* Shen Qingqiu has different lines of dialogue when praising Gongyi Xiao. In the Faelicy translation, he says:

> Shen Qingqiu praised, “As expected, heroes emerge young.”
>
>

And in the Seven Seas translation, he says:

> “As expected, one’s heroism is evident even in youth,” Shen Qingqiu said, offering praise.
>
>

#### Smaller Changes

* The Sun-Moon Dew Mushroom is described as “throwaway setup” in the Faelicy translation and “ throwaway plot point” in the Seven Seas translation.
* Yue Qingyuan asks Shang Qinghua to watch over Shen Qingqiu because “He’s poisoned” in the Faelicy translation and “He’s frail” in the Seven Seas translation.
* After seeing nothing strange after Shang Qinghua jolted the carriage, in the Faelicy translation, “Shen Qingqiu relaxed his guard,” while in the Seven Seas translation, “he didn’t lower his guard.”
* In the Faelicy translation, Shen Qingqiu says that “Huan Hua Palace allotted Bai Lu Forest into its sphere of influence?” Which implies that they themselves laid claim to this area. In the Seven Seas translation, he instead says that “Bai Lu Forest was allotted to Huan Hua Palace and its sphere of influence?” which comes off as more vague.
* In the Faelicy translation, Shang Qinghua comments on how little “face” Shen Qingqiu leaves others, while in the Seven seas translation, he instead refers to it as “dignity.”
* Shen Qingqiu failing to recognize Gongyi Xiao “was completely beyond his expectations” in the Faelicy translation and “came as a surprise” in the Seven Seas translation.
* Shen Qingqiu compares Gongyi Xiao to how he reminds him of Luo Binghe with “his beauty in how his eyes smiled” in the Faelicy translation and as “a handsome youth with a smile in his eyes” in the Seven Seas translation.

### The (CNoveluv) WorshipperA Translation (July 2018 version)

*Original unedited version posted May 2018*

#### Larger Changes

* When Shang Qinghua is moved by Shen Qingqiu’s recall knowledge, why he says he is is slightly altered across the translations. In the WorshipperA translation, everything he says is about the present:

> It’s just that I feel like you’re a loyal reader of mine after all. You were actually able to dig out the creations that I’d forgotten and lost a long time ago from a corner somewhere
>
>

Whereas in the Seven Seas translation, he recalls their past lives and “Cucumber-bro” specifically:

> It’s only, long ago, I began to suspect that Cucumber-bro was a faithful reader, just one who didn’t like expressing his feelings in a normal way. To think you were able to recall an obscure, throwaway plot point that I used only once.
>
>

* What Yue Qingyuan said to Shang Qinghua, and the entirety of his reaction to that message, are different across the translations. In the WorshipperA translation, Shang Qinghua makes a comment about Shen Qingqiu and Yue Qingyuan being childhood sweethearts:

> Thinking of how earnestly Yue Qingyuan looked at him just before they left, Shang Qinghua felt heartsore for himself.
>
>
> What would you call, “Martial brother Shang, I will have to give Qingqiu to your care during the pleasure trip. He has poison in his body, so please look after him.”
>
>
> You’re even calling him by name so intimately! It was only that the places they cultivated at when they were young were a little far away, or they’d really be childhood sweethearts!
>
>
> Compared to these inner disciples who were carefully cultivated by Peak Lords from the start, the outer disciples who had to scheme their way to climb up just had no human rights.
>
>
> That was why there was really no future in logistics.
>
>
>
> As the author, he had originally expended all his energy into molding Shang Qinghua into an extreme lowlife, but Great God Airplane Towards the Sky finally realized the pain of his characters.
>
>

While in the Seven Seas translation, the childhood sweethearts line is cut, and the other lines are altered:

> Shang Qinghua’s heart grew especially sour when he thought back on the words of instruction Yue Qingyuan had given him before they left.
>
>
> “Shang-shidi, for the journey’s duration, Qingqiu will be in your care. He’s frail, so please watch over him.”
>
>
> What was up with that?
>
>
> As the author “Great Master” Airplane Shooting Towards the Sky, who’d put his all into portraying Shang Qinghua as lowly scum, he finally understood this character’s pain.
>
>
>
> Logistics really got no respect. Everyone treated him like a nanny! Who wouldn’t understand the original Shang Qinghua’s desire to climb the ranks by any means? It was all too sympathetic!
>
>

* Shang Qinghua’s capabilities are described differently across the translations. In the WorshipperA, him ordering people around is mentioned:

> Shang Qinghua’s abilities at ordering people about and doing odd jobs were decent, but when brought to fight against the supernatural were truly not of much use
>
>

And in the Seven Seas translation, him being the one ordered around is mentioned:

> Shang Qinghua could be ordered about and used for odd jobs, but when it came to fighting monsters, he was pretty much useless.
>
>

* Shen Qingqiu’s response to Shang Qinghua implying he’s a virgin is different across the translations. In the WorshipperA translation, he talks about how Shen Jiu had affairs with teenagers:

> Shen Qingqiu: “What are you looking at me for? I, myself……Let’s not talk about that for now. Shen Qingqiu’s original character is of a high and lofty outer appearance and inner dissoluteness, going on all day about harmony until his being burns with it but carrying on clandestine affairs with adolescents. Young people can look for chickens, but do you think I’m still a virgin?”
> Actually, Shang Qinghua’s character seems about right.
>
>

And in the Seven Seas translation, he mentions how Shang Qinghua was written in a similar way:

> “Why are you looking at me?! As for my former self—let’s not talk about that for now. You wrote Shen Qingqiu’s original character yourself. He’s unsullied without, degenerate within, always burning with lust. He had an affair in his youth and sought prostitutes as an adult. You think I’m still a virgin? And don’t point at yourself, Shang Qinghua was written the same way.”
>
>

* Their reactions to Zhuzhi-lang’s second appearance on the road is different across the translations. In the WorshipperA translation, he keeps more of his thoughts to himself:

> Shen Qingqiu raised his head. Naturally, he didn’t see anything. In his heart, he thought it didn’t matter what this thing was. It was quite clever and knew to pinch a soft persimmon, only daring to play around with the softer-looking Shang Qinghua and didn’t dare bait him.
> He patted his shoulder again: “No matter how horrifying it is, it’s still something you wrote. What are you afraid of!”
>
>

While the Seven Seas translation has him say these lines out loud, as well as giving Shang Qinghua a response to his comment about him writing it:

> Shen Qingqiu lifted his head, and of course he couldn’t see anything. He sat down properly, opened the map in his hands, and raised an eyebrow. “Whatever it is, it’s quite clever.”
>
>
> “Why so?”
>
>
> “It knows to pick off the weak and so chose the easier one to scare.” He patted Shang Qinghua’s shoulder again. “No matter how terrifying the creature, you wrote it yourself. Why are you scared?!”
>
>
>
> “I don’t remember writing…” Shang Qinghua trailed off.
>
>

* Shang Qinghua calls Shen Qingqiu “Big bro” in the WorshipperA translation and “Cucumber-bro” in the Seven Seas translation.
* While both translations mention Cang Qiong Mountain being in the east, Tian Yi Temple in the center, and Huan Hua Palace having the territory in the south, only the Seven Seas translation mentions that Zhao Hua Monastery was also in the east.
* After Shang Qinghua asks if the creature is afraid of the light, the person who makes the female ghost comment is different across the translations. In the WorshipperA translation:

> Shang Qinghua took the advantage to come over: “Can it be that it’s afraid of light?”
> Shen Qingqiu: “Fuck, it truly is a female ghost!”
>
>

And the Seven Seas translation:

> “It’s afraid of light?” Shang Qinghua asked, bringing his head close to Shen Qingqiu’s. “Damn, it really is a female ghost! But I didn’t write about one—I absolutely didn’t write about one!”
>
>

* The people with the high enough cultivation to hear Gongyi Xiao’s quiet approach is noted to be just Shen Qingqiu in the WorshipperA translation and both Shen Qingqiu and Shang Qinghua in the Seven Seas translation.
* Gongyi Xiao is shocked that Shen Qingqiu doesn’t recognize him. Due to him being favored to win, he greeted people alongside the Old Palace Master, though the people he met and at what events differ across translations. In the WorshipperA translation, he was at a variety of events:

> and met many high-level leaders in events alongside the old Palace Lord
>
>

And the Seven Seas translation places him as having met high leaders at the Immortal Alliance Conference specifically:

> he had greeted each sect’s high-ranking members alongside the Old Palace Master
>
>

* Shen Qingqiu has different lines of dialogue when praising Gongyi Xiao. In the WorshipperA translation, he says:

> Shen Qingqiu: “Truly a young hero.”
>
>

And in the Seven Seas translation, he says:

> “As expected, one’s heroism is evident even in youth,” Shen Qingqiu said, offering praise.
>
>

* After asking why they didn’t inform Huan Hua ahead of time, the end of Gongyi Xiao’s dialogue is different across the translations. In the WorshipperA translation, he ends off by saying:

> We’ve truly delayed you elders and given you difficulties
>
>

And in the Seven Seas translation, he ends off by saying:

> We’ve neglected our seniors. Our hearts are burdened
>
>

* Shen Qingqiu’s reason for being there, and Gongyi Xiao’s response, are different across translations. In the WorshipperA translation, it mentions how long Gongyi Xiao has been the head disciple at Huan Hua Palace:

> Shen Qingqiu said: “We have no plan to pay respects to Huan Hua Palace; we’ve only come to deal with a situation in Bailu Forest.”
>
>
> Blank, Gongyi Xiao was about to ask them what situation it was. But his brain moved quickly and he kept quiet.
>
>
>
> Shen Qingqiu had preemptively put forward that he had come to Bailu Forest to deal with matters, yet didn’t clearly state his purpose. There was no need for further discussion. No matter how curious, he didn’t dare to arbitrarily ask questions to his elders. After all, he was the old Palace Lord’s First Disciple for many years and couldn’t be that ky[11]. It was too inappropriate for someone of the younger generation to directly ask about an elder’s thoughts.
>
>

With ky, or translator note [11] being:

> [11] KY: Abbreviation of a Japanese term 空気が読めない (kuuki ga yomenai), meaning someone who can’t read the atmosphere. So in context of this sentence, Shen Qingqiu means that Gongyi Xiao is someone who can read the atmosphere.
>
>

And in the Seven Seas translation, it does not mention Gongyi Xiao’s status in the same way:

> “We have no intention of visiting Huan Hua Palace and are only dealing with a small matter within Bai Lu Forest,” Shen Qingqiu said.
> By informing Gongyi Xiao that they had come for business but neglecting to say what the business was, he clearly indicated that he was unwilling to discuss it. In general, Gongyi Xiao would be expected not to ask further questions. After all, a junior interrogating his seniors about their activities would be improper.
>
>

* Before Gongyi Xiao asks to assist them, there is an extra line in the WorshipperA translation that is not in the seven Seas translation:

> Shen Qingqiu originally wanted to say a few words and send him away.
>
>

* While Shen Qingqiu suggests bringing along Gongyi Xiao because he can fight in both translations, only the Seven Seas translation has the line:

> If we refuse him now and let him leave, it won’t be just one person coming to look for us later.
>
>

* There is a paragraph questioning if Huan Hua will let them leave with the mushrooms. In the WorshipperA translation, this paragraph is not spoken, is presumably from Shen Qingqiu, and comes directly after Gongyi Xiao realized he shouldn’t question his elders:

> Considering the situation from another perspective: what if they wanted to figure out why there were suddenly two Cang Qiong Mountain sect Peak Lords here and sneaking around their territory borders and what their plans were? What if they felt that ‘if it stands in my home’s backyard, then of course it belongs to my home’ and ‘if it’s standing on my home’s fence, then it’s also one of my home’s things’? The logic was just that simple.
>
>

While in the Seven Seas translation, this paragraph is instead added on after Shang Qinghua’s questioning of if they’ll be able to leave with the mushrooms:

> ‘If it grows in my garden, of course it belongs to me. If it grows along my fence, it also belongs to me.’ Don’t say that I didn’t warn you of Huan Hua Palace’s logic.”
>
>

* The plant they are looking for is called the “Sun and Moon Dew Flower Seed” in the WorshipperA translation and “Sun-Moon Dew Mushroom” in the Seven Seas translation.
* After Shang Qinghua asks if their sects will become hostile if they steal from Bai Lu Mountain, Shen Qingqiu’s response differs across the translations. In the WorshipperA translation, he says:

> “You call this freaking tiny matter antagonizing? What’s more, Sun And Moon Dew Flower Seed is a lifesaver. Your old life or political relations, which do you choose?”
>
>

And in the Seven Seas translation, he says:

> “Your life or diplomatic relations, choose one.”
>
>

* Shen Qingqiu’s response to Gongyi Xiao asking why he emitted such large spiritual fluctuations on a barrier he could easily break is different across the translations. In the WorshipperA translation, which confirms that it was a mistake on Shen Qingqiu’s end:

> Cough, cough. The reason was very simple. It was like memorizing your formulas completely thoroughly, yet not necessarily being able to do the problems.
> Shen Qingqiu spoke half truthfully and half falsely: “That fluctuation wasn’t created when the formation was broken. It was generated when confronting a strange monster.”
>
>

And the Seven Seas translation, which frames it as an unintentional result of fighting Zhuzhi-lang with no user error:

> “That fluctuation wasn’t my attempt to break the spell,” said Shen Qingqiu. “It occurred while I fought a mysterious demonic creature.”
>
>

* The emotions of Gongyi Xiao’s response to hearing about a monster is not described in the Seven Seas translation, but is described as “Gongyi Xiao was stunned for a moment:” in the WorshipperA translation.

* Shen Qingqiu’s response to Gongyi Xiao’s respect and propriety is different across the translations. In the WorshipperA translation:

> Shen Qingqiu saw that his bearing suited the occasion, not lacking in the humility he should have, and also that his appearance was of the same mold as Luo Binghe’s. It belonged to the kind that was warm and full of feelings, his features and smile handsome, making it hard to cause others to feel displeased.
>
>
> Of course, he completely didn’t notice that these kinds of feelings could be described with one sentence: Love the house and its crow.
>
>
>
> He only lamented: Luo Binghe, ah, Luo Binghe. This day and age, running east and west, it was all because he was afraid of Luo Binghe!
>
>

And in the Seven Seas translation:

> Shen Qingqiu took in that proper bearing, which lacked not the slightest bit of appropriate humility. Moreover, Gongyi Xiao’s appearance was of the same type as Luo Binghe’s—gentle and emotional, a handsome youth with a smile in his eyes. It was horribly difficult not to be reminded of Luo Binghe, his unblackened, lovable disciple; it was also horribly difficult not to come away with a favorable impression of the boy.
>

#### Smaller Changes

* The amount of rare plants Airplane wrote that appear once every thousand years is said to “number in the eight hundreds if not thousands” in the WorshipperA translation and “Bing-ge’s eaten at least eighty, if not a hundred plants like that” in the Seven Seas translation.
* The mushroom bodies they are seeking out are mentioned in “one instance” in Proud Immortal Demon Way in the WorshipperA translation and “in a single paragraph” in the Seven Seas translation.
* In the WorshipperA translation, Shen Qingqiu claims that Luo Binghe “kills his way back, receives Mo Beijun as a follower, kills me, and kills you,” implying that he kills both Shang Qinghua and Shen Qingqiu. In the Seven Seas translation, it’s instead said that he “murders his way back, with Mobei-Jun under his command” and that “At that time, one will kill me, and the other will kill you.”
* The trivialities of An Ding Peak are “allocation of rooms or customization of uniforms for the various new disciples” in the WorshipperA translation and “ assigning rooms and uniforms to newly accepted disciples” in the Seven Seas translation.
* Shang Qinghua and Shen Qingqiu’s roadtrip is described with “Eating and drinking part of the way, playing and having fun part of the way, defending against attacks part of the way, and traveling by carriage part of the way” in the WorshipperA translation and “They spent part of the journey eating, part of it playing, traveled partly by sword and partly by carriage” in the Seven Seas translation.
* Shen Qingqiu’s reaction to Shang Qinghua’s description of the monster on the roads is that “sounded a bit weird”
* Shen Qingqiu tells Shang Qinghua to “Hush, go inside. Gnaw on melon seeds and play” in the WorshipperA translation and “Be good, go inside, eat and play” in the Seven Seas translation.
* Shang Qinghua suggests “virgin’s urine” in the horse’s eye in the WorshipperA translation and “male virgin’s pee” in the Seven Seas translation.
* In the WorshipperA translation, Shen Qingqiu says that “Huan Hua Palace also drew Bailu Forest as part of its territory?” Which implies that they themselves laid claim to this area. In the Seven Seas translation, he instead says that “Bai Lu Forest was allotted to Huan Hua Palace and its sphere of influence?” which comes off as more vague.
* Shen Qingqiu speaks to the “automated service” for the System in the WorshipperA translation and the “AI assistant” in the Seven Seas translation.
* Shen Qingqiu describes the System’s pressure as “You’re already making my balls hurt so much in this version, is the next version going to straightaway crush my balls” in the WorshipperA translation and “The current version was already frustrating enough—wouldn’t a new version just straight up kill him in the future?” in the Seven Seas translation.
* Shen Qingqiu smacks Shang Qinghua to get his attention in the WorshipperA translation and nudges him in the Seven Seas translation.
* The reason the System being down isn’t that serious is partially said to be “not unless Luo Binghe was unable to cultivate some levels in hell and get B points” in the WorshipperA translation and “It only meant that while Luo Binghe was in the Abyss, Shen Qingqiu couldn’t acquire B-Points” in the Seven Seas translation.
* The WorshipperA translation says that Zhuzhi-lang “rapidly slammed back several feet” and called him a “playful thing” once he fled. In the Seven Seas translation, he “leapt backward several meters” and is just called “that thing.”
* After saying that he did not know that Shang Qinghua and Shen Qingqiu were there, Gongyi Xiao’s dialogue ends with addressing them as “who are of the Nascent Soul stage” in the WorshipperA translation and “ Please excuse us for not coming to receive you” in the Seven Seas translation.
* Shen Qingqiu describes Gongyi Xiao as “quite handsome, just with eyes that were a little green with inexperience” in the WorshipperA translation, while in the Seven Seas translation he’s described as “quite handsome but that he looked unfamiliar.”
* Shang Qinghua tells Shen Qingqiu that “You really don’t remember a person’s face or give them face” in the WorshipperA translation and “There’s a limit to how little dignity you can leave others” in the Seven Seas translation.
