Tangled By Fate

Chapter 186 - PLAN FOR SILVER-HAIRED WOMAN

"Before you become a girl toy, I think you will turn into a boy." Veronica pointed at his chest. "Your… breasts are growing smaller."

"Wh-what's going on?!" Sebastian gasped immediately. He grabbed his boobs and exclaimed, "What the hell! Why are my boobs shrinking?"

His boobs weren't just reducing, his body shape was also changing. He was turning into his original shape.

"Is the magic wearing off?" Veronica asked.

"But Merlin isn't changing," Sebastian complained.

Merlin slapped the table as he remembered something, "Ahh! I think it's a side effect. If the potion user gets sexually assaulted, the magic of the potion starts to wear off. That's what is happening to you."

Sebastian was pissed. "Now you remember to mention that!"

He recalled when some guys were groping him while tying up his body. He was the only big-busted woman among them.

How could men resist touching his luscious body?

[A/N: Why does it sound so wrong?]

Merlin suggested, "Why don't I go back and bring another potion? I just need a couple of minutes. Although, I'm not sure if you will get that face and body again."

Veronica asked him, "How are you going to go back?"

Merlin replied, "I'll teleport. I'm going now–"

Before he could finish the sentence, they heard several footsteps. Judging by the sound, the footsteps were coming toward them.

"I think it's too late. Let's go back to bed. Hurry!" Sebastian urged.

The moment the three of them dived on the bed, the door of this room was unlocked and some people entered the room.

Man 1: "It was a tiring day! We were really short of performers today. What a drag!"

Man 2: "Whose fault is it? I already warned you to be moderate. Now the palace guards are looking for us."

Man 3: "What are you worried about? Duke is backing us up. As long as he is hiding us, there is no way some imperial guards will find us. Moreover, we have a wizard by our side. We have nothing to worry about."

Man 2: "Even if you say that, we still have to be cautious. Make sure you don't make a mistake. If we expose him, he won't be able to save us."

Veronica, Merlin, and Sebastian listened to their conversation as they laid on the bed like dead humans.

Man 3: "Are these women going overseas?"

Man 2: "Yes, especially this silver-haired woman. She will be sent to Synetia."

Upon hearing that, Merlin and Sebastian frowned.

'Why there of all places?' they wondered.

Man 1: "Why are we sending her to such a faraway kingdom? She will be sold at a good price if it's Riverhill."

Man 2: "I got news from Synetia. It looks like the Synetian King became insane for a silver-haired woman. He was going to marry one but she ran away. Then, He started to look for his bride for a long time. Unfortunately, she seemed to be dead. He became insane after that. Now he declared that anyone who can get him a silver-haired woman, he'll give them ten thousand gold coins."

Veronica's body subconsciously tensed. 'Why can't that king forget me already? What kind of unhealthy obsession is that?' she wondered.

Man 3: "That's a lot of coins. We can build a castle with that much money."

Man 1: "Yes. Consider us lucky. We have to treat her with utmost care."

Man 2: "It's almost time for them to wake up. Stay here. Make sure they don't cause trouble."

After giving them instructions, he left.

Man 1: "So, the silver hair is off-limits. What about these two? There is nothing wrong with playing with them, right?"

Man 3: "I was thinking the same thing. I really like the big boobs woman. She is a real keeper."

'I feel sorry for Sebastian,' Veronica thought. 'It never feels good when someone lusts over one's body.'

Sebastian, at that time, was thinking, 'How dare you lust over my body?! I know I'm a real keeper but it's when I'm a man. You dirty bastards! Just come at me! I'll make sure you regret your decision.'

Man 1: "But doesn't she seem a bit odd? From what I remember she is short and has long hair."

Man 3: "I know. I remember her face. She does look a bit taller now, doesn't she?"

Man 1: "We are going to play with her anyway. Let's check before she wakes up."

Merlin and Sebastian were preparing to attack. The moment Sebastian's leg was touched, he threw a kick.

He wasn't just a boy for nothing. He went through harsh training under Felix's guidance.

The kick threw the man away and his back crashed to the wall behind him. He fainted instantly.

Sebastian cursed, "Son of a bitch! That's what you get for lusting over my masculine body!"

'Masculine? Sebastian?' Veronica quietly observed his body.

The other man froze on the spot. He couldn't grasp the situation at all.

'How did a girl have so much energy?' he wondered.

He was so shocked that he didn't notice something approaching him from behind.

Merlin used his magical staff to strike his head. He fell on the floor and didn't move after that.

Sebastian tied them both and hid them behind the table. After that, he looked at his companion and asked, "Where did you get your staff?"

"It's my staff. I can summon it and make it disappear whenever I want to," Merlin casually replied.

"So, what will we do now?" Veronica asked. "We can't let them catch us."

"I'm going to teleport to the Magic Tower and bring guards. You two stay here." Merlin gave Veronica a small black stone. "This is a tracking device. As long as it's with you, I'll come back with guards and track you wherever you are."

Veronica held the stone firmly. "All right, come back quickly."

After Merlin vanished with the informative documents, Sebastian sat on the chair. "What can we do other than waiting? I'm feeling so uncomfortable wearing these clothes. Can I change them?"
