"An unexpected guy has appeared! How is it Theo? What qualifies Theo to be a judge for the girl idol competition? This guy's face and sense of beauty have nothing to do with normal people!"
Shami leaned back in his chair, feeling that the upcoming final was beyond his control.
Backstage, aside from the Dragon Race Maiden, the three girls who had interacted with Theo were also becoming uneasy.
"How did a Humanoid Race sneak into the judges? Is there a non-human lacking among the judges? Are we choosing an idol or a beautiful gorilla now?!"
The Elf Maiden's face suddenly recalled bad memories, revealing a very ominous expression.
"But no matter how you look at it, it's Theo. If it's someone from the same village, it'll give us an advantage, right?"
The white-haired girl felt a bit happy, thinking about things from this perspective.
If the judge is someone you know, then during the scoring, compared to others, it gives you a significant advantage.
"No, not necessarily. The uncertainty factor of this creature is still too great. I have no idea what kind of evaluation a guy who likes ○ sheep will make. How about I secretly assassinate him later?"
The Magical Girl's face sank.
"○ sheep? Who ○ sheep?"
The Dragon Race Maiden curiously approached.
On the stage.
Theo, wearing a judge's tag, slowly walked toward the judge's seat under the spotlight, looking around the entire auditorium with a slight sentimentality.
The auditorium audience was bustling.
"No wonder he's a judge with a unique aesthetic, you can see it from his appearance!"
"Go for it! Hairless ape judge!"
"Wait, he looks somewhat human, right?"
Theo slowly picked up the microphone, the profound aura in his eyes briefly concealed the sleazy atmosphere.
"What is beauty? Although humans currently have a consensus on the definition of beauty, forming a so-called public aesthetic. But this does not represent everyone's aesthetic.
Some people find plumpness beautiful. Last time, I saw two guys following a girl over 300 pounds, shouting that they've found a Pikabeast as they rushed forward. These are men attracted to plus-size women.
Some adore aged male types, a young girl falls for an old man over eighty, looking skeletal, even though this man seems to be the president of some corporation, could pass away at any moment, yet she stays beside him along with the man's wife and family.
These are all my real experiences.
Beauty is vast and varies from person to person.
In my view, even a sheep's bottom is cute, think about it…"
"Still can't forget your little sheep, Theo! The problem is, this is to select a girl idol under public aesthetic! Swallow those strange encounters back!"
Sitting at the judge's seat, Theo looked at the bustling seats, finding the audience's noise gradually quieted, sweating in his palms.
Oh no, did I say something wrong?
Why is everyone starting to quiet down?
If I say more, wouldn't I be exposing my identity? Quick, end my opening remarks!
"Then, let the final officially begin!"
Theo changed his tone, shouted loudly, and then handed the stage back to the host.
Shami watched all this breathlessly.
It's over, Theo, this guy is going to completely chaos the competition.
The specially made Recording Crystal aimed at the stage, as the cheers of the audience inside and outside the auditorium rose, colorful streamers flew, and the idol competition final officially began.
Eleven girls dressed in identical idol outfits slowly walked out from the backstage onto the stage, starting their performance according to the rehearsed program.
Considering that among the eleven contestants, there are both girls from Fata, Elf Race maidens, and even a royal daughter, the identities of the girls are diverse, the host didn't design the idol outfits too revealing, the idol performance attire is similar to the school uniform of Saint Karno School, all are tops paired with short skirts, followed by freely matched stockings.
Sitting in the judge's seat, Theo looked at the eleven contestants, his expression briefly showed a hint of surprise, then returned to normal.
In the seating, Shami's focus wasn't on the stage, but constantly paid attention to the popularity changes inside and outside, and Theo's situation.
At the moment the final was announced to begin, the popularity voting started.
Currently, the contestants' popularity hasn't opened up, all at the same level.
Beside Shami, the jelly in the pet box was evidently a bit nervous.
This blue Slime vaguely remembers that before the final began, several girls came to it one by one.
"Little jelly~ Can you help me take photos under the stage during the final?"
"For the photos, make sure to make me look beautiful."
"It's best to record the video too. I want to see myself on stage."
"If there's nothing in the Recording Crystal after the competition ends, you'll be finished. I'll tell Shami you're secretly working with Fata to badmouth him\ wanting to be the boss\ slacking off at work."
The Slime Leader started sweating.
If nothing is completed, Mumu might end very miserably.
The Slime in the pet box began to change shape vigorously, squeezing out four transformed hands from the box grille, holding the Recording Crystal, and began recording.
The competition progressed fiercely.
Soon after, Shami saw Theo walking down the audience seats, entering backstage on the stage's right side.
Shami also hurriedly stood up, following in the direction Theo left.
Since he was in the front row, and as a VIP, Shami successfully walked behind the stage.
The interior of this auditorium is still quite spacious, Shami saw the busy staff managing various dispatches backstage.
Stealthily following beside Theo, they both entered a men's restroom.
The sound of a whistle echoed, Theo was peeing in front of a urinal.
Shami quietly approached this fellow villager who was a head shorter than him.
"Theo."
Theo shuddered, quickly turned around, Shami was nearly hit by a stream of liquid, luckily his agility was enough to quickly avoid.
"Mind your ○ shaped crime tool!"
"Shami!?"
Theo looked at Shami in shock, for a moment, his eyes seemed to be moist, rapidly spreading his arms, wanting to hug over.
Shami dodged again.
"For crying out loud, put on your pants first!"
Theo eagerly put on his pants, overjoyed.
"How did you appear here? Did you see the stage? Lina, Lureya, and that Magical Girl, they've all come to compete for idols!"
"What surprises me more is, why did you appear here, and as a judge?"
Shami crossed his arms, eyes fixed on Theo, gulping nervously.
Reunited after a long absence.
The immunity towards Theo was fading.
Shami spent quite a bit of time adapting to this face again.
Upon hearing this, Theo slightly raised his head to look at the warm light on the toilet's ceiling, sighing with melancholy.
Shami felt something was amiss.
"It's a long story."
"Then give me the short version!"
