Editing Shinmai Maou no Keiyakusha:Volume 8 Chapter 3 (section)

===Part 7===
Toujou Basara gently wiped his tears away with the back of his left hand and kept his eyes fixed on Hasegawa’s as she sat on his lap. Her expression was a mix of confusion and surprise.

“I’m not saying that the story you told just then was a lie…but, there’s still something that you’re hiding from me, right sensei?”

“What are you saying…”

“—There’s more to that story than what you just told me about my father.”

Basara interrupted Hasegawa. However, it wasn’t just that.

“Have you forgotten? I already know about the conversation between you and Sakazaki that Brynhildr heard. But, you should have known about that a while ago, sensei…and the story about my old man is something you wouldn’t want to lie about anyway.”

However

“You loved the mother who gave birth to me like a sister, and you blamed yourself for being unable to stop the heavy punishment that was equivalent to losing everything that was precious to her…and that’s why you didn’t mention it.”

After a pause.

“You also — protected me in exchange for the status and power of the Ten Gods.”

“………”

The silence of Hasegawa was confirmation of Basara’s words. It was only natural. The topic had come up during the conversation between Hasegawa and Sakazaki — therefore, Toujou Basara continued.

“Moreover, when you mentioned that my demon mother was worried about me after I had just left the <<Village>>…it’s probably true that she was still worried about the <<Village>>, me, and my old man at the time. It would have been difficult for my mother as a demon to stay at our house.”

If her identity as a demon was discovered, that would have put Basara in danger. Sapphire probably had to make a difficult decision when she went back to the Demon Realm. But — just as Hasegawa said, it was also true that Basara’s mental state had slowly begun to settle down, and Jin was busy with his work. If that was the case, then

“On behalf of my demon mother, the one who stayed by my side until I completely settled down was you wasn’t it, sensei? If you’re a goddess, then you would have been able to lie about your identity to the Hero Clan. And since you were there, my mother was able to return to the Demon Realm without having to worry.”

Because

“After you brought me to this world…you mentioned that you didn’t return to the Divine Realm. You protected me even though you had to abandon your position as one of the Ten Gods, and you’ve helped me up until now with your advice and blessings. Even though you entrusted me to my father, you remained in this world. I don’t think that you simply stood by and did nothing in this period of fifteen years, and that’s because you cherish my other mother who saw me as a beacon of hope more than anyone else.”

The lie that she most likely told was that rather than staying close to his mother, she thought that staying close to Basara would bring her more salvation. That was the case for Hasegawa Chisato — Afureia of the Ten Gods. She had continued to think dearly of Basara up until now.

What Basara said to Hasegawa was the truth.

“——”

Hasegawa Chisato felt surprised as she gazed into both of Basara’s eyes. They were the same colour as her own — and, also the same colour as Raphaeline’s. The eyes which Basara had inherited from the wise Raphaeline saw through and exposed the truth which she tried to hide as she gently touched her left earring — something that she herself had inherited from Raphaeline.

“……I’m sorry.”

Hasegawa offered those few words of apology as she hung her head and muttered. —Hasegawa Chisato had kept quiet about her own identity all this time while interacting with Basara. Hasegawa had her own circumstances, but those circumstances had absolutely nothing to do with Basara. It was clear that the story of Jin, Raphaeline and Sapphire was something that she could never lie about. However, Hasegawa thought that there was no need to insert her own existence into that story, and that there was no room for her in it. That was only natural. In that story, Hasegawa — Afureia of the Ten Gods was only able to watch on as Raphaeline, someone like an older sister to her, received a sentence that eradicated her existence…and, that was everything. At the very least, all she could do was lessen Basara’s pain by a bit. So when she told the truth about Jin and the others — she had interwoven falsehoods about herself. However, that was something Hasegawa had chosen to do. From Basara’s point of view, weaving in lies into an important story was akin to dishonesty and betrayal.

…However, Hasegawa was okay with that. For her current self, Basara was an existence more important than anything else. Just as Basara decided to do things for the sake of Mio and the others, Hasegawa likewise decided that she would do anything for Basara’s sake. Even if — that meant lying to Basara. That was why Hasegawa had been able to build up a relationship of trust, and a bond with Basara that was different from Mio and the others as the school nurse — that was an undeniable truth. There were times when Basara sought her advice on important things. There was also the time when Basara had made her aware that she was a woman. There was also that time when they completely lost their reasoning and they wildly desired each other. Every time, Hasegawa trembled in delight as she responded to him. Being someone needed by Basara was Hasegawa Chisato’s everything. …But, that everything would soon be lost. While it was possible for her to modify Basara’s memories, the way he smiled at her — the way he desired her, all of that would vanish. Although she long been prepared for this day, when Hasegawa thought about her relationship with Basara ending, energy simply vanished from her body.

“…?”

All of a sudden — a gentle arm embraced her from behind. And so, while sitting on top of Basara’s lap, Hasegawa turned around so that they were face-to-face.

“—Please don’t misunderstand.”

While holding onto her waist, he spoke with a gentle voice and expression.

“Did you forget…I asked ‘sensei, I want you to tell me what you know about my birth’ didn’t I?”

Basara continued

“I also said ‘As a woman who is precious to me, I want to know what your raison d’etre is, sensei’.”

“Yes…that’s why I…”

Basara smiled bitterly as he looked at Hasegawa in front of him.

“But, you only told me about my parents, sensei. Of course, I’m grateful that I could hear about things that I hadn’t known until now, and I’m also happy to hear that I was cherished by all three of my parents, but…that wasn’t what I wanted to hear the most.”

So what was it supposed to be then? Basara’s words drifted around in Hasegawa’s head as she tried to discern his true intentions.

''…Ah….''

She finally let out an astonished exclamation. She realised something. —Basara wanted Hasegawa to tell him about what she knew of his birth. —Basara wanted to know what Hasegawa’s raison d’etre was, as one of the women that he held dear to him. Basara didn’t ask to hear about Raphaeline or Sapphire, he wanted to know what Hasegawa felt as she embraced him.

“It seems I made you misunderstand, but…it’s good that I know what you true feelings are, sensei.”

After Basara said that, he quietly embraced Hasegawa tightly again.

“Thank you…for thinking about all of us until now.”

He said so with a tone of certainty. However

“…………”

Hasegawa suddenly couldn’t find anything to say in return. She didn’t understand why either. What he wanted to know was not the truth about his mothers, but about Hasegawa’s true feelings. Therefore

“Why…?”

As she asked that in surprise, Basara smiled as he said

“Please don’t think of it as something strange. You’re the one who’s in front of me right now, you’ve protected me many times up until now, and you’re also someone precious to me right now — it’s no one else but you, sensei.”

As if it was only natural, Basara spoke the truth. So — she understood the meaning of Basara’s words. No, the moment she understood

“………………………”

Hasegawa was no longer able to hold back the tears which had begun to moisten her eyes. She was relieved that Basara didn’t hate her. Moreover, she felt rewarded for everything that she had done for Basara up until now — as soon as that thought arose in her mind, tears continuously and unstoppably overflowed from her eyes.

“Sensei…”

The moment that Basara gently wiped her tears with his finger, Hasegawa Chisato — Afureia could no longer hold her own feelings back. So — she entrusted her entire body to Basara in that moment. Both Hasegawa and Basara’s bodies were bathed in a dazzling golden glow. 

“S-Sensei, what is this?”

“The beginning of a contract ceremony…between you and me.”

Hasegawa replied in response to the surprised Basara. It was different from the Master-Servant contract that Basara had tied with Mio and the others. It was a contract for Hasegawa as a goddess to lend her power to someone whom she deemed to be worthy. Still wearing her yukata, Hasegawa had returned to her original appearance as Afureia, a goddess with blonde hair and blue eyes.

“You will feel that all of your senses become elevated at once…right now, this entire building is in a barrier to become the place of our contract.”

And then

“Right now, I can still exercise my power as one of the Ten Gods for your sake — so”

“No, I know that…but, why?”

Basara seemed puzzled by the sudden change in the situation, but Hasegawa said

“Didn’t I tell you?”

She then continued

“Right now, I am someone who exists for your sake…if you think of me as someone precious to you, then I want to be of even more use to you. Even though the problem with the demons has settled down for now, it’s not a perfectly good or worry-free situation. In case you run out of trump cards when you go to the Demon Realm—”

After a pause

“—I want to give you a new trump card using this contract with me.”

She had said those words at such a close distance that Basara could feel her breath against his skin, and Basara unconsciously inhaled her breath. —Indeed, contracts were relatively popular among the members of the Hero Clan. They way that Kurumi borrowed the power of the spirits was a form of contracting with them, and Yuki had also been selected as the wielder of [Sakuya] through a contract. The Hero Clan itself was a group of human beings who had been granted power by the gods, and some of them had succeeded in contracting with gods in the past. However

“But, a contract with sensei is…”

Essentially, in order to forge a contract, it was necessary to face the subject of the contract for a long time in order to recognise them as a suitable entity for a contract — that was a contract ceremony. Of course, the length of time required to be recognised increased in proportion to the strength of the target. Among those who engaged in reckless contract ceremonies, it was even said that some spent their entire lives on it, and were still unable to complete it. Moreover, Hasegawa was a supreme being among the divine race — she was one of the Ten Gods. It was on a whole new level compared to all of the contracts that he had formed so far.

“Don’t worry…there is absolutely no way that a contract between you and me would fail.”

“Is that so…?”

When Basara asked that, Hasegawa said ‘yes’ as she nodded.

“I started this contract ceremony because I wanted to be of use to you…but the magnitude of the power that I can lend to you via the contract depends on how far you can mentally push me.”

“As one of the Ten Gods, you’ll be my opponent…”

It seemed unreasonable, and almost impossible. Basara’s expression distorted slightly, but his lips were suddenly sealed.

“Mmm…chuu, haa…Toujou…”

Basara froze up due to the sudden kiss, after which Hasegawa gently parted from him.

“You’ll be fine…although it’s a contract with me, it’s essentially the same as the Master-Servant contract rituals that you’ve performed with Naruse and the others. You don’t have to think so hard about it.”

She smiled gently as she continued

“—In any case, haven’t you already done things like this with me several times?”

“That’s…no, please wait.”

Basara was stunned.

“Then, when you said that you wanted to establish a secret relationship with me, is this what you anticipated, sensei…?”

“I thought that if you forgave me…but when I think of you, it also becomes painful as a woman. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have forgiven me, right?”

As she said that, a flirty smile emerged on Hasegawa’s face. Hasegawa had been waiting for this for a long time. Therefore

“——”

Toujou Basara felt as though the shackled emotions which he had desperately suppressed were released. —Hasegawa wasn’t the only one who had been patient so far. Of course, there were times when his reason left him and he lusted for her, but up until now, Basara had never tried to conquer Hasegawa like Mio and the others. The intent of his secret relationship with Hasegawa was not meant to hurt her. …But, while he thought of Hasegawa as someone precious to him, he had repeatedly wanted to make her belong to him at the same time. Even so, Hasegawa was an older woman, and Basara had been obedient and sweet to her up until now, believing that it was what she desired as well. However — things were different now. The Hasegawa before his eyes…Afureia of the Ten Gods strongly desired to be subjugated by Basara. If he responded to her feelings, and could also borrow an amount of power from her at the same time, Toujou Basara no longer had any reason to hold back. He would relentlessly force Hasegawa Chisato to submit to him.

“It seems like you’re in the mood now…so come over here.”

The colour in Basara’s eyes changed, and Hasegawa leaned over as she took his arm and invited him to the adjacent room which lay behind a set of sliding doors. And over there, a futon had already been laid out, most likely because she had asked the staff to — and the moment she stepped into the room…. The appearance of Hasegawa who had been leading him by hand reverted back to her original appearance as Afureia.

“…Sensei?”

Hasegawa Chisato directed a gentle smile to Basara’s confused face.

“You don’t have to worry…once the contract ceremony begins, even if you subjugate me while I have this appearance, it won’t stop me from lending you my power.”

So, when Hasegawa lay down on the futon, she spread open the top of her yukata so that her chest lay bare. At the same time, Hasegawa undid the hook of her bra. Her large breasts had become stained the colour of cherry blossoms, and they bounced out as they became exposed before his eyes.

“——”

Hasegawa seemed happy that Basara gulped upon seeing her figure.

“Rather than my appearance as Afureia of the Ten Gods…it would be easier for you to subjugate me with my usual appearance, wouldn’t it?”

While her naked body was lewdly illuminated by the indirect lighting of the lantern which was placed on the floor, her seductive smile was incredibly provocative to him. Naturally, it was in order to make Basara’s desire to subjugate her even stronger. However

“That’s not the case…but I’m relieved.”

As Basara stood at the entrance of the room, his expression was gentle.

“Now that I know the truth, I was worried that you might quit being a teacher, and you’d interact with me as one of the Ten Gods from now on, sensei.”

“Why would you think that…?”

Relief and worry — when Hasegawa interrogated the meaning of Basara’s words that she hadn’t been able to understand, he said

“Because…well, it would mean that the relationship, trust and memories that I built up with you until now would become naught, sensei.”

However, as soon as Basara approached Hasegawa on the futon, he lowered his body and aligned his gaze with hers.

“If you continue being the way you’ve been up until now, sensei…then we can move on without having to give up on anything that we’ve built so far.”

Basara accepted Hasegawa’s lies and everything that she had from before. And as for what Hasegawa cherished the most, he also cherished that and didn’t want to lose it — he had said that there was no need to give it up. Those words were enough to send Hasegawa’s emotions into a spiral.

“Wha — sensei!?”

When Basara suddenly raised a puzzled voice, Hasegawa had already pushed him down on the futon, stripped off the yukata that he wore, and also dragged his pants down in order to insert his rod in her mouth. —She understood that she had to have Basara subjugate her. However, her strong feelings for Basara overflowed and she could no longer hold back. So only at the beginning — just this once, Hasegawa voluntarily performed fellatio on him so that she could convey that.

“Hmm, chuu…chuu, haa…Toujou, ''slurp''…Toujou…chuuu ♥”

Being the first time that she had forgotten about herself, Hasegawa obsessively sucked on Basara’s rod, and that quickly caused it to become stiff and sturdy within her mouth. As she had already mentioned to Basara, their senses were dramatically elevated within the barrier, and that heightened pleasure applied not only to Hasegawa, but also to Basara. While moving her head up and down, she slowly sucked on his rod while making lewd sounds, and stroked his shaft with her left hand as well. In the blink of an eye, Basara was almost about to reach his limit — but.

''—I want Toujou to feel even more.''

Such feelings overflowed from her and she was unable to stop them, so Hasegawa moved her right hand underneath Basara’s butt. During the winter vacation, she had learned how to give Basara the utmost pleasure. And just this one time, she could unilaterally express her feelings for Basara — that was why Hasegawa Chisato performed that erotic technique. She gently inserted the middle finger of her right hand into his butt just as Basara leaked a groan, and she used her fingertip to stimulate his prostate by rubbing against it. In that instant—

“——!”

With a silent exclamation, and a shudder that was brought on by the sudden bounce of his hips, Basara ejected a hot load right into Hasegawa’s mouth. He had shown such a reaction just from a light stimulation because all of his senses had been elevated within the barrier. However, the same could also be said for Hasegawa — Hasegawa experienced a sweet ecstasy as Basara’s cock rampaged and pumped a load into her mouth as it rubbed against her tongue and throat.

<nowiki>“Mmm~~~~~~~~~~♥”</nowiki>

Hasegawa rapidly shuddered all the way from her buttocks to her back. As she swallowed his load, she began to drown in happiness. Womanly nectar began to overflow from Hasegawa’s secret place as she soaked her underwear so much that her juices then overflowed from the side and slid down the inner side of her thighs. The contract ceremony between Hasegawa and Basara — began with the climax of both of them.
