Editing Shinmai Maou no Keiyakusha:Volume 12 Chapter 2 (section)

==4==

Even if she keeps holding her shame, there’s no helping being conflicted over it.
That’s why Celis left the bedroom and headed towards the first floor to improve her current state.
The time was still a little before 5am—Basara and the others should still be in the giant bedroom downstairs.
As such,
…Now was the chance.
While there isn’t much she can do about the bed sheets and the mattress, for now she can only focus on what’s possible, which was washing the sweat off her body in the shower and washing her panties.
With that said, as she approached the first floor, she noticed a nice scent wafting about.
“…This is”
As she approached the living room, she figured it could be coming from there. There was a door opened a bit—and from inside it came the noise of cooking utensils and a mouth-watering scent.
Celis peeked inside from the already open door, and there were two figures cooking in the kitchen, which was adjacent to the living room.
Zest and Yuki are the ones in charge of breakfast today.
In the Toujou household, the main cooks are Zest and Maria. Mio, Yuki, Kurumi and Hasegawa take turns helping them.
With them smiling so peacefully and chatting as they cook, it would be hard for anyone to believe that they were once a member of the hero clan and demon on opposing sides.
In Celis’ view, that reality makes them look like sisters or something.
It’s an unshakable bond born from Basara.
It’s—something Celis can’t yet attain.
In the distance,
“…”
Celis hesitated to enter the living room, and the two of them became aware of her presence.
With that said, Yuki and Zest looked at Celis welcoming her.
“Morning… Celis”
“Good morning, Celis-san”
“Yes… Good morning”
As Celis returned a smile to them,
instantly, she remembered her current predicament,
“—“
Damnit, her feet suddenly stopped. She hasn’t even showered yet.
As there’s a possibility that Maria would fish it out, she couldn’t use a tissue, and if she was to get changed, there’s a possibility it would drip onto the new panties.
She didn’t have the courage to walk around the house without panties on. Therefore, even though she brought a change of clothes with her, Celis was in a state where her crotch was completely soaked.
Celis froze up without thinking,
“? Celis, what’s wrong?”
Yuki in the kitchen, turned a little towards her.
“N, nothing…”
Being put in an embarrassing position like this, though she just thought about their distance just now.
Furthermore, with her shame winning, Celis was at a loss for words.
—For Celis to have soaked her panties and bedsheets, isn’t something Yuki was aware of.
Maria and Zest are the only ones that knew about her embarrassing secret.
Of course, even if she was aware, Yuki certainly wouldn’t be judgemental or treat her differently. However, Yuki is her childhood friend, and because they know each other well, there are things that are more embarrassing between them.
“Um, Zest… do you think you can come here for a bit?”
As Celis asked with her cheeks flushed red, Zest said “yes” and stopped her cooking, and approached Celis,
And then,
“…Is something wrong?”
Zest asked, as she looked at her.
“——“
Zest seems to have noticed Celis’ currently indecent appearance, that was the reason why Celis called Zest over.
“Um… Sorry, I’m… Again”
Celis said, with her voice growing softer,
“—It’s alright, please leave it to me”
Having understood everything, Zest smiled at her, and then she turned around,
“I’m sorry Yuki-san… But can you watch over my cooking for a while?”
Without asking any questions Yuki said,
“…Yeah, sure. Leave it to me.”
She nodded, then returned to her cooking.
With that, Zest, whispered,
“So, I’ll clean up your bedroom… What would you like to do with your panties? If you’d like, I can take them for you.”
“N,no… I can clean this myself.”
Zest smiled at Celis, who was rubbing her inner thighs together in embarrassment.
“I understand… Well, Celis-san, it’s fine if you take care of it after your shower, but can you call Maria over?”
“…Maria?”
Zest nodded a yes, responding to the dumb-founded Celis.
“There’s something I want to discuss with her… about preparations for tonight”
