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

Chapter 147 Part 2

Translator: “Hakou” Editor: “Weasalopes”

(It is an area human shouldn’t step into)

There should be a huge price to pay for it. He couldn’t help but think so.

(For example. What if the pilot’s mind went crazy after he couldn’t stand being sucked out?)

The pilot, who loses his reason and goes berserk, attacks even his allies with that powerful strength.

That’s why the Knights around him fell and the knight commander’s Knight was attacked.

(…..The heavy lancers subjugation!)

He remembered it as if his head was struck by lightning.

The reason why the Kingdom lost many Knights, leading to the Empire’s invasion this time. It was a big defeat in the battle against the heavy lancers.

At that time on the battlefield, powerful long-distance attack magic attacked the Knights of the kingdom repeatedly.

(I always thought something was off)

Heavy lancer was indeed a powerful monster, but their only means of attack was charging forward.

As long as you remembered what you had to do, it shouldn’t be an enemy that could make the kingdom’s knight order collapse.

(The Kingdom brought out the Ghost Knight in the battle against heavy lancers. But the Ghost Knight went out of control in the middle of the battle)

It was nothing but a hypothesis. But surprisingly, the story makes sense.

Ghost Knight, who was supposed to provide support, suddenly releases attack magic to its allies.

At the time they were in chaos due to an unexpected situation, this time the heavy lancer’s assault came their way.

No matter how strong the knight order they are, they wouldn’t be able to defend against it after all that.

「I see… If it’s like that, then it was no wonder they wouldn’t use it unless cornered」

He said as he nodded.

「Perhaps it was also because of that fear of consumed by madness that the attacks on the expeditionary forces stopped at the fourth shots」

Looking at the vice guild master who began muttering like that, the engineers who were entering and out of the office made a look of expectation.

Because it looks like he has caught onto something.

The vice guild master sank into thought. However, the sound of a knock disturbs it.

One of the staff appeared from the corridor. He was a man who has become quite familiar recently.

The vice guild leader spoke first with an annoyed tone.

「I know. The guild master is calling for me, right?」

The staff who was about to open his mouth nodded with apologetic looks.

(Though the guild master might’ve been pressed by the higher ups too)

He understands that.

But he wants the guild master to stop putting that pressure on him as well.

If one were to get called so many times a day like this, then there would be nothing to progress at all.

(He probably want something to report to)

There, the vice guild master decided to talk about the madness thing while adding 『It was just a hypothesis though』.

Because in truth, he had just come up with it and nothing has been verified yet. That would be something he needs to work on from now on.

(With this, the pressure from the higher ups should have lessened by a bit)

If they can show even just a bit of progress, he’s sure the higher ups would feel relieved.

While thinking so, he went up the stairs to the guild master’s office.

However, the vice guild master, a genuine engineer, thought a little lightly.

The guild master, who was more like a white collar worker, lightly brushed off the『It’s just a hypothesis』part.

This was because of the difference in how they see things. The distance between 『Hypothesis』 and 『Facts』 was much closer for him than the vice guild master.

And then the guild master went to his superior.

「As a result from our blacksmith guild’s all-out effort in the research, surprising facts were found」

It was hard, was written in his face as he reported.

A middle-aged woman praised him with a smile. She was a member of the roundtable.

In this way, the information that “the price is the madness of the pilot” was sent to the round-table hosted by the emperor.

***

After the round-table conference at the palace, a man with a warm look returned to his private residence.

He told the butler at the entrance to call a person and went up to the study.

(The blacksmith guild had made a great progress on their end while we still hadn’t got anything)

Remembering the face of a grumpy middle-aged woman who in front of him at the round-table irritates him.

The middle-aged woman, who is in charge of analyzing the boxed girl, haughtily reported the result she got. She received words of appreciation from the emperor.

(At this rate, I’m going to lose my position)

Recently, he hasn’t showed any good results

He was maneuvering inside the Kingdom under the help of the margrave until recently.

It was a maneuver to weaken the Kingdom using drugs.

However, his scheme was exposed. And the organization has been crushed.

(Though I thought I escaped it successfully)

Giving up on the future of the margrave, he used poor health conditions as an excuse to return to the Imperial capital.

A man with a handlebar shaped mustache that was his direct subordinate. He looked at him grudgingly, but he’s not a man that would mind it each and every time.

Once he successfully cut loose, he stroked his chest in relief.

(And to think that they captured Land barn this quickly)

The ship that was supposed to sink suddenly flew into the sky. Moreover right after he got off.

As a result, the margrave’s faction began to ride on the success road while staring at him coldly.

If he failed again continuing his previous ones, he might lose his voice at the round-table.

(Even though I would also get to take a huge leap forward if I had stayed…)

He remembered the events that had passed and felt a burning sensation in his heart.

There, a knocking sound could be heard.

An old man appeared, guided by the butler.

「For whatever business do you call me?」

This old man with a gentle look was his subordinate.

He has been working as the concierge in a brothel he owned for many years.

「I want you to send some people in the Kingdom’s brothels and look for a certain someone for me」

While looking up at the old man who stood still from his chair, he continued.

「He’s working as a pilot in the merchant guild. Get in touch with him and get information of his Knight」

「I understand」

He put his hand on his chest and bowed politely.

The brothel run by the gentle looking old man was one of the most famous ones in the Imperial capital.

But that’s just on the surface. Underneath that surface was an information agency by laying honey traps.

And as the master concierge, this old man has spread these agencies around.

「He seems to be a well-known man in the Kingdom’s red-light district. Will it be alright?」

To the gentle looking old man, he answered quietly.

「No matter how popular he is, it’s just inside a countryside with brothels that don’t have much history. He wouldn’t amount to that much」

It’s a centuries-old story, but the Kingdom was certainly built over the conflict between humans and monsters.

While the Imperial capital has always been a land of inhabitants. The depth of history is incomparable.

「I shall show him the taste of a true woman」

He said so and lifted the corners of his mouth.

His figure was full of confidence.

In fact, men and women trained in his brothel continue to play an active role both inside and outside the country.

Playing at the brothels was the ladies’ and gentlemen’s job. While the lobby in the brothel was a place for socializing and exchanging information.

People that could be called a prominent figure were invited every night to deepen their friendship.

And sometimes they would have business talks, or planning.

His intelligence agency which strips naked the person on the spot has made great accomplishments.

「Although a private Knight’s, he’s still a pilot, he should have a high social standing」

「Right. If he were to play, then he most likely went to a store with a reasonable status」

The gentle looking old man nodded.

「I understand. I will contact my connection in the high-class brothels」

「I’m thankful for that. Let’s choose someone with skillful one here」

「I’m counting on you」

The old man headed to his brothel once he got back from the meeting.

In his mind, he already began to select some people.

(I heard the subject managed to immobilize a number of women)

He nodded.

He spoke big in front of his lord back then, but he thought that he shouldn’t be conceited.

(He’s quite a big prey. I would go through a bitter experience if I try to deal with him with such thinking)

When he felt depressed to the bottom, his eyes sharply reflected its light.

(It should be her)

Her shining appearance. Also the ability to make many bastards said that she’s the only one for them.

It’s absolutely perfect.

Feeling ecstatic, the smile on the old man’s face grew bigger.

Like this, a woman was sent to the Royal capital via a third country.

A letter of introduction by a noble from a third country. With that in her hand, she headed to a high-class brothel in the Royal capital

The name of that store was Jayanne.

The store that sent the Kingdom representatives to a friendly match held in the Holy city.

However, the gentle looking old man, and the old man who sent her didn’t know.

That the pilot of the merchant guild was banned from entering this store.

(Now, bring it on. The pilot of the merchant guild)

With the Royal capital’s prominent figures as her partner, the skillful operative shook her hips.

In just a short period of time, she already got enthusiastic support from several of those men.

(For someone who’s famous in the red-light district, he didn’t show up at all)

By the end of the tenth day, she began to feel uneasy.

Rumors grow.

Actually, he was someone that rarely came to high-class brothels. Such a possibility also exists.

It would be a little while before her colleagues brought up a topic of his ban.

Until then, she waited restlessly.
