在四十個字限制內決定這次系列的第一篇標題,還真是件很難搞的差事。
但是老實說,當一群瘋子拿武器逼著你一定要「一邊哈哈大笑 、一邊殺害眼前的無辜弱者,不然就連你一起幹掉」的時候,最後還能不發瘋地活下來,那才真的是老天保佑。

==[黑-原文,紅-翻譯]==
She's from a village in Scandinavia, little seaside hamlet known to all the locals as the devil's village.
她出生於斯堪地納維亞半島,鄰近海邊的一個小村莊,當地人稱之為「惡魔村落」的地方。
Place wasn't known for devils, though. It was known for octopus.
但是那個地方之所以有名,卻並非因為惡魔~而是章魚。
See, this was one of the few place in Europe where they ate octopus customarily.
明白了吧,這裡就是歐洲大陸上極少數擁有「以章魚作為主食」習俗的地方。
Anyway, there's this cult of crazies who for some reason hate the village, with a passion.
總之呢,當地的極端信仰教徒因為某些原因,對於這個村子有著強烈的憎恨。
Then, when she was just a teenager, things get bad.
然後,就在她還正處少女年華的時候,事態卻急遽惡化。
These nutcases get their hands on some weapons and attack the village.
Overnight, her sleepy little fishing town becomes a war zone.
這些瘋子們取得了武器,並向村落發動攻擊。僅只一夜之間,她的寂靜小漁村就化為戰場。
They round up all the villagers and execute them one by one.
Except for that girl.
他們將村民集合起來,並且逐一地處決了村民們~但是,惟獨女孩除外。
They had something else planned for her, something a whole lot worse than dying.
他們打算利用她,來進行某個盤算中的,比死亡還要更加惡劣的計畫。
Calling her the Devil's Child, they forced her do the kind of thing you'd except from one of Lucifer's own.
為此,他們稱呼她「惡魔之子」,並強迫她執行了許多只有路西法(註)才想得到的行徑。
(飛燕補註:這裡是把「路西法」當作「惡魔」的同義辭來使用)
After they made her torture her family and friends, they made her kill'em.
他們逼迫她殘酷地虐待了她的家人與朋友之後,接著命令她將家人與親友們全部殺害。
The whole time they were forcing her to laugh, howl like some sort of demon, like she was enjoying it.
而在這整個過程中,他們更強迫她必須如同惡魔一樣放聲大笑,宛如她十分享受這樣的過程一般。
What was she gonna do, say no? They'd kill her, too.
她能怎麼辦,拒絕他們?無疑地,她也一定會被殺害。
So she let fear take control, and did exactly as they told her.
因此她讓恐懼支配了自己,並且圓滿地執行了他們的命令。
She butchered the bodies of the ones she loved, and laughed while she did it.
她一邊笑著,一邊將她曾經愛過的親友的遺體予以親手肢解。
And as she bathed in their blood, it gradually turned from deep red to jet black.
而當她沐浴在這些人的血泊之中的時候,滿地的鮮血也逐漸地由深紅變得烏黑。
To her, it looked like the ink of an octopus.
對她而言,看來就像是章魚噴出的墨汁一樣。
The experience scarred her deep. Ever since then, she hasn't stopped laughing.
這樣的體驗,在她的心靈深處留下難以抹滅的傷疤,自此之後,她就再也沒停止過大笑。
Only, that ain't really laughter.
只是那樣的聲音,已經不能稱作是真正的笑聲了。
