We have studied liquid crystal microemulsion that is made by the mixture of the thermotropic and lyotropic liquid crystals. In the transparent nematic phase, where nematic director is locally distorted by the randomly dispersed inverse micelles so that the system has isotropic nature, nevertheless nematic order is completely accomplished. By using the dynamical mechanical measurement, we measure the temperature and concentration dependence of the viscosity in the vicinity of the phase transition between isotropic and transparent nematic phase. Transparent nematic phase shows the true nature of the Newtonian simple fluids behaviors, and its viscosity is lower than that in the isotropic phase. These mechanical properties support our rough speculation for the internal structure of the transparent nematic phase. .
