Chapter 183 - MERLIN'S PLAN AND SEBASTIAN'S COMPLAIN

Merlin's skillful eyes were scanning the whole room. Suddenly, he noticed something odd. He squinted his eyes.

Hmm?

He elbowed Sebastian and asked, "Everyone is throwing red pouches but sometimes, one particular man is throwing a blue pouch toward some performers. Those performers are being taken to a different direction, unlike the rest."

"You are right!" Sebastian exclaimed. "Why didn't I see it before?"

Merlin: "…"

'I overestimated his espionage skills,' he thought.

He ordered beers for themselves. The customers were shouting so much that no one could hear what the two of them were talking about.

The beers were served.

Sebastian chugged down the beer and then wiped the foam from his upper lip. "I think I know why Darius said that the restaurant is suspicious."

Merlin commented, "He must have noticed that man too. Everything about him gives off a weird vibe. He is wearing a black cape and covering his face. From our angle, we cannot see who it is. I think he is buying these performers for trafficking."

"I agree. He isn't choosing everyone. He is carefully judging each performer and selecting the best one from each team. I wonder where Mistress is." Sebastian looked nervous.

"Hopefully nothing will happen to her." Merlin was worried too.

While they were talking about Veronica, another group of dancers came on the stage. When they started dancing, the customers suddenly became quiet.

Sebastian and Merlin glanced at the stage and froze.

Among the dancers, there was a silver-haired beauty. She was wearing a red blouse, red harem pants. A golden chain was hanging on her waist. The coins attached to the chain zinged every time she moved her waist. She was wearing red shoes with golden embroidery. Her face was covered with a transparent red mask. Her hair was curled up and decorated with some golden chains. Both hands of hers were decorated with golden bangles.

Although other performers dressed just like her, her striking features stood out among them.

Not only were her silver hair and emerald eyes unique, but also her aura was completely different from the rest.

Even though she was standing far behind, she caught everyone's attention.

Merlin and Sebastian subconsciously gulped.

'No wonder Arthur is so infatuated with her,' Merlin thought.

'Goddess, have mercy on me.' Sebastian gulped.

The customers gawked at her. They forgot to throw pouches at the performers.

In their eyes, they were watching an angel dancing among the mortals – beautiful and mesmerizing.

Veronica, on the other hand, was having great trouble matching up with the others. Since she never learned these kinds of dance and she was super duper nervous, she made some clumsy moves.

Her heart was thumping loudly just like the drummers beating the drums. She thought that her heartbeat was matching the rhythm of the drums.

'Please, please, please, finish the song quickly. I don't think I can handle it for too long. The pants seem to be loose. What if it falls down in front of everyone?!' The more she thought about it, the more she panicked.

When the performance was almost over, the man with the black cape threw a blue pouch at Veronica's feet.

Merlin and Sebastian became tense.

Startled, Veronica looked at the blue pouch. She stopped dancing and stared at the pouch with a dumbfounded expression as though she had no idea what to do with it.

The drunkards roared with laughter.

Finally, the dance ended and the dancers left the stage.

Only then the customers began to move. They started to lament for not giving Veronica the money.

"Damn it! I wanted to bed her!"

"How did I miss this chance?!"

"Is she a foreigner? I've never seen a beautiful girl like that before. She makes me hard!"

"I think I'm in love."

The more they talked, the more Merlin and Sebastian wanted to shut them up.

'Do you people want to die?! Shut up before my Master kills you!'

Those two imagined what would be Arthur's expression if he heard these nasty perverts. Just thinking about that made them sweat profusely.

They saw Veronica was taken away by the fatty woman just like those girls who received blue pouches before.

Sebastian rose from his seat. "It's not good. She has been taken to the other side of the stage. How are we going to get close to her now?"

Merlin pondered for a while and came up with a plan. Then, he said, "I've got an idea."

-------

Twenty minutes later –

Sebastian stumbled as he walked.

"Seriously! How did you come up with this idea?" he sounded thoroughly displeased.

Merlin quietly said, "This is the only way we can get there." Even he was having a hard time walking.

"But disguising as women? Look at these boobs!" He grabbed his breasts and complained, "So heavy! It hurts! I cannot imagine women having such heavy burdens attached to their bodies. How can they endure it?"

Merlin nonchalantly said, "They are used to it. Now stop complaining. We have to give the customers some alluring performance and let the mysterious bad guy choose us."

He also had boobs but his boobs were smaller than Sebastian's. So, his chest didn't hurt as much. However, losing his manhood and suddenly growing boobs were making him uncomfortable.

Merlin's plan was to use magic to disguise themselves as women and perform on the stage. When they would be selected by that man, they would be able to be with Veronica. This way, they could protect her and gather more information.

He wished he could use magic to become invisible but only Arthur and Ovior were capable of doing that kind of magic since they had lots of mana.

Since Merlin and Sebastian needed to disguise themselves and the traffickers might check, he thought becoming women temporarily would be the best solution.

He used teleportation to go back to his room in the magic tower and took two bottles of potions that could change a person's sex.

After turning into women, they dressed up beautifully and headed to the restaurant to be hired.

Let's see how they handle it.
