I Got a Cheat and Moved to Another World, so I Want to Live as I Like

Chapter 266 Part 1

Translator: “Hakou” Editor: “Weasalopes”

Spring is in its final stages. With early summer approaching, the sun is shining brightly in the late afternoon in the royal capital.

Right now, I was walking to the theater with my friend Corneal.

「Why don’t we go see a ballet sometime?」

Or so he invited me. Apparently, there is something similar in this world.

This young man with a thick, muscular neck and a vulgar smile on his face. To be frank, he didn’t look like the type to a man who would enjoy ballet or theater.

However, his position does not allow him to do so.

(Now he’s like the number three in the knight order)

Well, there’s no such position, but it’s equal to vice commander in the knight order.

He often has to deal with high-ranking people outside the knight order, so he has no choice but to go along with them.

(Still, he’s come a long way huh)

Until recently, he was only one of the low-rank pilots, which made his growth feel more amazing.

According to the person himself, 『It’s thanks to Tauro-san teaching me using magic eyes that my skills has improved』.

As I thought, there’s a connection between 『Operating a Knight and skill on bed』.

「We’re here. This is the place」

In front of me was a huge stone structure with numerous arches. The words 『Royal Theater』 are carved in relief on a marble slab above the entrance.

The building is located in the northeast area of the royal capital. It was located in the northeastern area of the royal capital. In a corner of Noble Town, a place I had never set foot in before.

After paying a good amount of money we went to the general seats. By the way, both Corneal and I were dressed in pilot’s attire.

(This uniform is a lifesaver)

No matter how prestigious the event is, as long as I wear this, everything will be fine. It’s really amazing that I don’t have to worry about anything after wearing it.

「……It’s amazing, isn’t it?」

I look around and let out a couple words as I stand on the first floor.

The fan-shaped audience seats were three stories high, and the power I felt when I looked up at them made me catch my breath.

In front of the stage, which was raised one level, were the seats lined with musical instruments. I guessed that the symphony orchestra would be performing there when the show started.

「Tauro-san, our seats are over here. Let’s take a seat」

I, who was a little in the way in the corridor, came to my senses and rushed to Corneal’s side.

I sat down in the dark red fluffy chair and exhaled, stroking the polished armrests.

(Still, to think that I would be watching a ballet performance)

It was the first time in my life, including before I got transferred here.

The only connection to the ballet was that I liked a painting of a dancer.

『I like impressionism, especially Edgar Degas.』

That’s what I told the rich gentleman who was one of my clients in my previous world when he approached me.

In reality, I just liked the girl’s limbs, which were well toned and supple.

(I’m pretty sure that painter has a taste for that kind of thing. Moreover it’s on a dangerous level.)

I’m still convinced of that. If I may add, Renoir was a fat man.

When I was a student, I was shown a lot of his works in Western art history class, so I’m pretty sure I’m right.

(Oh, it’s starting)

The lights in the auditorium went down, and the stage was illuminated in turn. Then, quietly, the orchestra began to play.

Then women in white ballet costumes and men in white tights and vests appeared from both sides of the stage. They began to dance and twirl.

「It’s a dance to celebrate the princess’s return.」

Corneal, who was beside me, commented in a small voice. I told him it was my first time seeing it, so he kindly explained it to me in consideration.

According to him, she had been working in a brothel in another country as a bride-to-be, and had returned to her country in triumph after achieving the number one monthly sales.

(…Hou)

My eyes were sparkling in the dark audience seats. A brothel as a place to train to become a bride, as expected of this world.

Then the ballet at the Art Theater must be different from the one in my previous world.

(It looks promising)

I removed the male dancer from my sight as much as possible and focused my eyes and consciousness on the women.

The story seemed to have progressed, and the music suddenly changed to something that felt frightening.

Then, a man in a black costume appeared offstage. He spun intermittently and walked to the center of the stage.

He was probably the villain, judging from the gaudy makeup he wore on his face.

「One bad guy who was not invited. 『Doctor Slime』 has come angrily.」

Corneal’s words caused me to stop thinking. When I slowly moved my eyes, he had a big smile on his face and gave me a thumbs up.

「You must be surprised, right? It’s new work. At last, it’s time for Tauro-san to appear in a stage performance!」

It seems to be a common thing to have a well-known person as a material.

The most famous one is a performance called, 『The Roar of the White Lion』. It depicts the achievements of the now-deceased former commander of the Kingdom knight order, who used to be sponsored by the knight order at great expense.

「They exaggerate someone the size of a pinky finger to the size of an arm, though.」

With a look of displeasure on his face, Corneal rests his elbow on his crotch, clenches his fist and puts his strength into his arm. It’s not as big as a horse’s.

「Something like, he destroyed hundreds of A-class Knight. There were only fifteen in the Kingdom before the numbers were reduced in the battle against the Heavy Lancers? No matter how many empires there are, there’s no way there are that many A-class Knights.」

Corneal said with a sigh. The problem is, some people believe it to be true, he says.

Next, he smiled at me, and continued, 『It’s a tax for being famous. Please bear with it.』 he continued.

(I don’t know if it’s okay to be honored by this or not)

As the leader of the 『Doom Squad』 I guess I should be happy that I’m now being cast as a villain.

I let out a sigh like Corneal, and turned my attention back to the stage.

There, a female guard who had tried to stop Dr. Slime was being beaten back.

(Oh?)

In a standing position, she was stabbed from the front with the sword.

And this was not a pretend. Her white undercoat had been pulled down and she was being penetrated through it.

(Her body looks so flexible)

One toe pointing straight at the ceiling. The beauty of her arched back and the line of her chin is as if she were a ballet dancer.

Dr. Slime drowns the female guards that stand in his way one after another and throws them to the floor. The male guards were defeated by the female dancers who followed Dr. Slime.

(Could it be that she’s supposed to play as Cool-san?)

This one was wearing a black outfit and similar makeup. But I didn’t think they knew that Unicorn was under my command.

I guess they are just trying to outnumber the male guards.

The guards were finally wiped out, and Dr. Slime stood in front of the princess with his sword still standing.

(That thing is more splendid than mine)

Underneath his folded arms, he asserted himself in a way that was visible even from a distance. It was impressive.

And the mental strength to keep himself calm despite the stares from the three-story auditorium was also amazing.

As expected of a first-class dancer. They probably have the power to turn those gazes into their strength or something.

(So the princess didn’t escape and face the enemy huh)

She was going to fight her using the power of being number one in the monthly sales.

She took Dr. Slime’s hand and they combined on the spot while facing each other. The two of them begin to dance in a pair together.

(Woah, will he be alright?)

A quiet gasp escaped from the audience. A man and a woman, linked together, stood on their tiptoes and began to leap around the stage.

They even occasionally kicked the air behind them with one leg in the air.

(It might snap if his timing’s even slightly off.)

Cold sweat broke out on my forehead as I stared at them with a grim expression. But the skill of the dancers was far beyond my expectations.

To my surprise, they even started to change their positions.

(He changed his posture in time with the music. To think that people can go this far)

From facing each other, to the position where she took her by the back. After that, it was sixty-nine, station lunch box, and a whole other position.

Right now, it was a side position, with one of the woman’s legs held high in the air.

「Looks like it’s Dr. Slime win」

As Corneal whispered to me, the princess looked at the man in front of her in despair and then collapsed with a blank stare.

The triumphant bad guys spun around and left the stage again.

The stage lights dimmed and a sad song began to play. Another group of dancers that seemed to have been preparing themselves in the meantime appeared on the stage when the lights came back on.

However, the lights only illuminated one side of the stage from the center.

「The scenery changes to a royal palace in another country.」

His commentary that comes in at the right time is very much appreciated.

(I wonder what kind of scene it is this time. Is it a prince choosing his bride?)

A young man in white tights with a small crown on his head and a sparkly vest stood on the stage. One after another, women appear in front of him, but the young man just shakes his head from side to side in annoyance.

Next to him, a man who looks like a minister pointed at the quiet young man’s crotch with a sorrowful expression.

「The prince is having a blind date, but he doesn’t like any of the women.」

I nodded at the Macho Man’s explanation. Physical reactions are important.

The prince scratches his head with an agonized look and leaves the stage aggressively.

Then the lighting switches and the matchmaking hall is enclosed in darkness. In return, the half of the stage that was dark is now lit up.

「That’s the princess from earlier, right? She’s lying on her back. Does that mean she hasn’t regained consciousness since then?」

When I asked him, Corneal said 『That’s right』, and shook his head.

However, he said that the time has passed in years.

「As expected of Dr. Slime. His attacks are that dangerous.」

He said with admiration, but please don’t do that.

『People who believe what they see as fact.』

The fact that there are a certain number of these kinds of people was just mentioned by this man a moment ago.

(Wouldn’t it be terrible if I were banned again because of other people’s assumption?)

As I shrugged my shoulders, the servants surrounded the princess and lamented in an exaggerated manner.

The prince who had just appeared there for some reason held his chest with one hand and backed away as if shocked.

「It seems the prince fell in love with the princess at first sight.」

Even I could understand that. The crotch of the man in white tights, which hadn’t even twitched a moment ago, was now rising sharply upward.

As expected of a pro, he was able to do something like that at will in front of a crowd. I was truly impressed from the bottom of my heart.

「Wow, I don’t expect he’s going to do that」
