p1
>>I-I screwed up~...

>I overslept...
>>OXX Station

p2
>I've really screwed up...
>Lucky~ A free seat...

>...Miss.
>...Stop.
>It's the last stop.
>Fgah!
>I missed the last train...

p3
>*Today is a weekday.
>First off, I've got work in the morning
>so I need to find a way home...

>Naturally, there's no buses or other trains...
>I've got it! What about a taxi...?

>>HUGE SUM

>That's an entire day's wages!
>>HUGE SUM
>There's no way that's happening!

p4
>I would tell Adel-san that I can't get home
>but she doesn't have a phone...

>Why don't you have a smartphone?

>You need official documents to get a contract, right?
>I don't have those.
>How honest...

>Can't you just forge them? You're a demon, after all.
>I can pay for it.
>You're so...

p5
>Stop thinking about things from the demon side.
>I'll send an e-mail to my laptop just in case.
>She sometimes checks it for online shopping, after all.

>We've been pretty much together all the time outside of work that I've never realised...

>how anxious it feels not being able to get in touch with her.
>"Welcome home, Ryouko".

>...I hope Adel-san notices my e-mail...

p6
>Meanwhile.
>Ryouko's really late today.
>I wonder if she's busy.

>...I've forgotten since she usually comes home,
>Ah...!
>Eep~
>but she might get in a accident, or get caught up in an incident.

>...She might even try to run away from me.

>...

p7
>Erm, what should I do next...?
>Wait! I'm almost out of battery!

>C-Convenience store! Convenience store!
>There!

>>Portable charger
>>Lithium charger
>Pricey...

>I get the feeling convenience stores use portable chargers to take advantage of customers...
>Kh...
>This, please...

p8
>Thank goodness. There's an internet café...
>Phew...

>If I looked that up sooner, I wouldn't have needed to buy the charger...
>Normally I would've finished by bath and dinner by now.

>I'd be in my futon talking to Adel-san
>and she'd yell at me to go to sleep already...

>...I'm so lonely.

p9
>>Private Stalls 24H
>>Internet
>>Games - Manga

>I'll catch the first train home, take a shower, then go to work.
>The light is reassuring.
>Then I guess I'll get a little sleep during lunch break...

>I wanna sleep in my futon...

>...Honestly. I was wondering why you hadn't come back...

p10
>Adel-san!?
>What are you doing here?

>How'd you find me...?
>All it takes is a little magic to find where my contractee's soul is.

>Eh!?
>Like I said.

>Even if you tried to escape, I'd catch you.

p11
>Amazing! I don't have to worry about getting lost!
>That was meant to be a threat...

>Well, whatever. Let's just head home.
>Eh?

>Fwah...

>Adel-san, can you give me a piggyback?
>What are you saying? I wouldn't be able to use my wings that way.
>Don't squirm.

>This is an unexpected way of carrying.
>It's the most convenient.
>...

p12
>I'll make sure not to oversleep next time...
>I'd be happy to carry you anytime.
>That's the problem!
>What is it? You're weird...

>They got home safely.
>You were embarrassed because my chest was hitting you!?
>It happens when we take baths together.
>Touching them directly is a different matter!
