Chapter 1217 She's Still A Bro
"This… This feels so weird, Master…" Brendan groaned as we ate our food at the dining table.
I tilted my head at her, "Hmm? Why? It's not like you've never turned yourself into a girl before."
"Yes but… Now I have memories of being one… I know how to shave my legs… I know how to put on makeup and even walk in heels… All of this I know I've never done before yet feels so natural to me… I even know how to… Ah… Ermm… Nevermind! This pasta is really good, Master!"
Hmm… I wondered what else she remembered?
Nevertheless, I'm quite proud of this pasta I made even if I do say so myself.
I leaned my chin on my palm, "You know… If you don't want this, I can always just change you back to your male form?"
I thought she would accept it but Brendan just scratched her cheek sheepishly, "I'm… I'm fine, Master. It'll just take some time for me to get used to it. Something like this shouldn't bother me at this stage, after all."
Hmm? What does he mean by 'at this stage'?
Meh, whatever.
I went back to finishing my food, "So, how do you feel about being a bartender?"
"It's… Interesting. It actually shares quite a bit of similarity with Alchemy so I think I would be able to handle this quite easily."
"Oh? I thought you'd be more surprised by the state of this World's technology."
"Not at all, I've seen sister Elaria's underg-- Ahem… I've seen her laboratory so I've seen more outlandish things than this. I'm more surprised about our relationship in this World, Master."
I thought she was going to say something about an underground thing but I got curious with what he meant.
"Our relationship here? We're basically business partners and also roommates, aren't we?"
Brendan nodded, "Yes. And yet… We're living like… What did Master call it? Bros?"
"Ironically, you're quite a lady killer yourself and you even dress yourself up as a guy to attract girls too. Isn't that nice, Brendan?"
"Master, please… The me of this World is a real deviant… I can't believe we would take girls back here to have… Ummm… Nevermind…"
I chuckled before standing up from our dining table, "Well, we should get ready to head down to the bar soon, shall we?"
"Unn… Yes, Master."
We got dressed up in our usual work clothes and Brendan especially went ahead to bind her chest and even put on makeup to make herself look a little bit less girly.
In my opinion, that was quite a waste since she was actually quite feminine in this World and would have been able to compare with any of my other disciples in terms of beauty too.
I noticed her tie was a little crooked under her vest so I went forward in front of her, "Hold on, let me help you with that."
I straightened it before smoothening it down her chest with my palm, making sure it looked immaculate.
Brendan's face flushed red, "Tha… Thank you, Master…"
I grinned, "Still haven't integrated your memories fully yet?"
She shook her head, "I… I'll be fine… I think? I just need to concentrate on something else and I'll get it…"
"Something else other than what?"
"Ahem… Will you look at the time, Master? We should really get going!"
She's quite cute, eh?
For her final touch, Brendan did her hair up into a simple ponytail before taking in a deep breath and breathing out.
"I'm ready, Master."
"I'm just going to put it out there so that you know this, the offer to change you back to a male is always there so just let me know if you decide to do it. This whole idea is for you to relax on an outing with me after all, it would be pointless if you were uncomfortable the entire time."
"I… I will keep that in mind, Master. But umm… I think we should go before it gets too late."
Honestly, we still have another two hours before opening time and it's right across the street. Plus, we're not the only staff there so we don't have to be there so early to do the opening either.
I guess Brendan just wants to get there earlier to decide if keeping herself like this is better than changing back.
Well, I'll just leave it to her to decide what she wants to do on her own, she has already ascended to godhood anyway so mundane things like this would stop bothering her eventually.
The two of us stepped into our private lift that brought us all the way to the ground floor. I noticed that on the ride down, Brendan seemed to become less nervous and even started to smile to herself.
By the time the 'ding' sounded from the lift to signify us reaching the ground floor, Brendan seemed to have changed quite considerably.
She turned to give me a toothy grin while nudging me with her elbow, "So, we ready to get some people wasted again, Master?!"
I grinned when I realised what she did, "Oh, please don't go too far. In case you forgot, there's that time you kept serving those girls drinks that they threw up all over our floor. I would really appreciate that not happening again."
"Ahahaha! I couldn't help it, Master! I got so distracted by them chatting me up that I forgot about keeping track! Could you blame me, though? They really did look like they could hold their liquor before they started throwing up!"
"Just be careful ok? Last thing we need now is for you to give someone alcohol poisoning because you're too busy chatting up a girl to notice."
"Oh come now Master, I'm not that bad. I'm still your apprentice aren't I?"
The two of us stepped out of the lift and our security guard waved at us as we passed him, "Good evening Master Lin, Miss Brendan. Heading to work early today I see."
Brendan smirked, "You know us, always serious about what we do~ Be seeing you!"
We barely got out of the door before Brendan turned to me with a grin, "So is Master interested in finding some girls to bring back home today? Actually… How many do you think will ask us out tonight? I'm going to bet on six."
"Oh, that low? I think we'll get at least ten with you being like that."
She was about to say something more before she suddenly stopped and then covered her face with a hand, groaning, "Oh… Is this how the me of this World usually acts?"
I smirked, "You let the memory version of you take over for a moment, didn't you?"
She nodded while still hiding her face, utterly embarrassed.
Heh, I'm already looking forward to see how she's going to deal with the girls hitting on her tonight~
