I explained everything one by one including the drawings, the basement, the abyss of the stage, to the actresses’ powder room and the panic space in case of an emergency but brother in law doesn’t seem to be interested at all.
「And well, this is how the lifting device works…」
「I’ve pretty much figured it out. We’re done here.」
「Is that so?」
「It’s still under construction and I’ll probably come back again when it’s completed.」
「I’ll be sure to show you a special seat then!」
When I said that, he snickered with a disinterested hmm and checked the pack of cigarettes on his chest.
He lit the last remaining cigarette, glanced at me, and tilted his head.
「By the way, do you really have to do all this trouble to build your own theater….」
「Maa, that……I guess because of the difficulties of life, or perhaps an old dream of mine……」
「You’re not too old to talk about the difficulties of life, are you? If you keep talking like that, you’ll be old as soon as you hit twenty.」
I guess you’re right, I’m technically only 17 years old……
In my previous life, I would have been wearing a school uniform and going to school but here, it’s normal to be working and have children at this age. Now it feels more like I’m living my previous life.
「Well, if it’s only a theater, it’s peaceful……」
Brother in law blew out purple smoke as if sighing deeply and rattled his head from side to side.
「I remember you already got your own theater troupe but, what are you going to perform?」
He asked me as we walked down the passageway that led from the basement to the stairs to the surface.
A worker came from the other side of the passageway but turned around as soon as she saw us.
Well, this passageway is big enough for us to pass each other but I guess they wouldn’t like to get in the way of the owner.
「The performance will include Rilks’ “The Naked Woman” and……a new play by……」
「New play? Do you have a playwright?」
I feel like apologizing to the surprised brother in law since he has a slightly impressed look on his face but, you got it wrong…..
「Ah, no, that’s……I’m embarrassed to say this but, I wrote the script myself…..」
「You did?」
As expected, brother in law’s expression suddenly turned austere.
「Yes, I have been writing plays to introduce the products of my family’s business……」
I hurriedly added details but brother in law’s expression remained austere.
I guess that’s the normal reaction. How much of a wayward idiot of a noble is someone to have a theater, let alone a theater troupe, perform the script he wrote himself?
In fact, I didn’t write because I wanted to but because my slaves begged me but from an outsider’s point of view, that doesn’t matter.
「Propaganda theater……to think you’d even build a theater with that in mind?」
「Ah, no……that’s……」
You’re right, you are so right.
I feel my face flush with shame but I am frustrated that I can’t even say anything against it.
I was at a loss for a reply and as we climbed the stairs, we were greeted by the workers, who had just turned back at the passageway. I gave them a small wave in return with a bright red face.
With a somewhat awkward atmosphere, we pass through the stairwell, which is physically blown through without a roof and pass through the entrance without a gate.
As I stepped outside, brother-in-law “coughed”.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
