Wearing two long grey colored commoner's gowns, Merlin and Sebastian walked into the dark alley. As soon as they reached the back door of the restaurant, they knocked on the door.
The door was opened abruptly by a short man and he yelled, "Who is it?"
Merlin pretended to be scared and said, "Umm… we are here to be recruited. We know how to dance. Are we in the wrong place?"
"!!!" Sebastian looked at the man… oops woman beside him. He was stunned seeing how excellent Merlin was in acting.
He could completely mimic a woman!
The short man was about four feet tall. He raised his head to look at those gorgeous women with a melodious voice.
As though thousands of stars rushed toward him and shot his heart. His heartbeat rapidly and his eyes sparkled like a galaxy filled with millions of stars.
He grinned perversely and rubbed his chin. "I'm not sure how you knew that we are short on dancers. Since you came all the way, we won't disappoint you."
Merlin and Sebastian felt disgusted as they realized that the dwarf was lusting for their bodies.
They entered the restaurant. They were taken to the dressing room.
"What are you being so lazy for? Hurry and finish dressing her up. Two more dancers are waiting for you!" The fatty woman was nagging the makeup artist.
"Missus, I have brought you a gift," the dwarf happily trotted inside and declared.
The fatty woman turned around and she was going to nag when she saw the two voluptuous women with innocent faces.
Her jaw dropped.
"Where did you find these two?" she asked, feeling suspicious.
'Just as I thought. She isn't easy to fool,' Merlin thought.
The dwarf replied joyously, "They came here looking for a job. They said they can dance."
"Hmm." The woman's sharp eyes scanned the beauties as the beauties observed her with timid eyes.
The woman was middle-aged and had a regular height. She was as round as a pumpkin and her hair was orange colored. Her eyes were light brown colored.
She truly looked like a living pumpkin.
Merlin nervously bowed and introduced himself (or herself?), "I'm Martha, missus. She is Maria. We are sisters. We have been learning to dance since we were little. We didn't have any academic teaching. We are in need of money. A man approached us and said if we wanted to earn money by dancing, we could come here. That's why we came."
The pumpkin woman didn't care whether they knew how to dance or not. She liked the girls' bodies which would give her more customers.
She said, "Hmm, so that's the reason. Very well, wait here and get dressed. The next dance will be yours and your sister will perform in the last one."
"Thank you! Thank you very much!" Merlin bowed. His voice was filled with gratitude.
"Thank you!" Sebastian also bowed. But he looked awkward. He wished this hellish nightmare would end soon.
Later, they dressed up. They wore golden-colored blouses and rainbow-colored skirts.
Before the time arrived, Sebastian became nervous.
He whispered to Merlin, "How are we supposed to dance? I've never danced in my whole life!"
Merlin was thinking the same thing. Just like Sebastian, he had no idea how to dance.
He stated, "We must use some kind of strategy. We just have to shake our bodies and hips and follow the other dancers."
Sebastian retorted, "It's easier said than done! How am I supposed to shake my body with these busty boobs? They are hurting enough, all right?"
Fortunately, they were able to practice their dance twice with the group before performing in front of the customers.
Maybe because of the potion they drank or it was because they had female bodies, they were able to dance without much problem.
And, since they were the sexiest beauties in their teams, they got more coin pouches than the rest and finally, the mysterious man chose them.
Feeling relieved, they went to a special room after their performance was over.
They thought they would be taken to where human traffickers put other people.
They didn't think they would be taken to a hotel room where other performers were happily chatting.
They had already changed their original clothes and were sitting idly. Some waiters served meals. They were eating as they were hungry.
Merlin and Sebastian's eyes skimmed around the room and found Veronica sitting beside the window. She was alone.
They were relieved to see her. They quickly headed in her direction.
"Mistress!" Sebastian moved closer. "Are you alright? Did anything happen when you were taken away?"
Looking at the beauty she never saw before, Veronica became puzzled.
"I'm sorry. Do I know you?" she politely asked.
With her good memory, she wouldn't easily forget someone she knew. Moreover, not many women knew that she was the 'Mistress' of the Magic Tower.
Furthermore, she would definitely remember meeting eye-catching beauties.
For the first time in his life, Sebastian felt ashamed to introduce himself. "I'm Sebastian. He's Merlin."
It was Veronica's time to drop her jaw.
"For real?!" She looked at both of them. She couldn't find anything that could match their original features.
"Magic potion for disguise," Merlin shortly explained.
"This is brilliant!" Veronica gaped at them. "If I want to become a boy, can I have the magic potion as well?"
Merlin pondered and then replied, "Arthur has some of it. But he might not let you have any. You can ask me what kind of physical structure you need. I'll make you some."
"I want a slim body like Felix," Veronica instantly gave her personal recommendation.
Sebastian remarked, "He might look slim with clothes on, but he has a toned body. He's got quite some muscles."
Veronica shook her head. "I don't want that much muscle. Girls like muscles. What if a girl falls for me?"
"…" Sebastian was speechless. 'Why didn't I think of that?'
"Fine, I'll make a potion to turn you into a slim guy. So, did you see anything unusual?"
"Not really. We are just enjoying here–"
Before she could finish her sentence, the girls in the room started to act strange.
