Professor Celia’s Wardrobe
Before Rio departed for the Proxia Empire, in the estate that Rio received from the Restoration in Rodania...
One morning, Celia was in her underwear, glaring at the clothes spread out on her bed. They were all casual clothes she’d bought at a branch store of the Ricca Guild, and every piece was cute in design.
“Hmm, I wonder what I should wear?” Celia muttered in thought, trying to decide her outfit for the day.
“Celia.” Aishia suddenly materialized in the room; she had been sleeping in Celia’s room in spirit form last night. She appeared while yawning sleepily, as though she had just woken up.
“Oh! Good morning, Aishia.” Celia was in her underwear, but she seemed totally used to the situation.
“Morning. Are you choosing your clothes?”
“Yup. I can’t decide which would be best to wear while I’m out shopping today. I know—could you give me your opinion on which outfit I should wear?”
“You bought everything here with Haruto, so I’m sure he’ll be happy with whatever you choose,” Aishia said, making a precise guess of Celia’s requirements.
“I-I never said I was choosing for Rio’s sake!” Celia denied with a flushed face. She then continued speaking in a whisper. “B-But... I’ll be going out with Rio, and while we’re together he’ll have to look at me, so it wouldn’t hurt to wear something that suits Rio’s tastes.”
“Do you want to ask Haruto, then?”
“I-It’s fine. I’m sure he has his own preparations to make.”
“You don’t have to call him here. I can telepathically share what I see and hear with Haruto over short distances.”
“You can do that?” The possibilities were so unlimited with spirit arts, they surprised Celia even to this day.
“Yup. It’s only possible between a spirit and contract holder with a path connected.”
“How convenient!”
“It has more limitations than just telepathically speaking, but I should be able to show you to Haruto from this distance,” Aishia said, staring at Celia intently.
“I see... Then maybe I’ll take you up on that offer... Wait, I’m in my underwear! S-Stop! Don’t do it! You’re not showing Haruto what I look like right now, are you?!”
It was an eventful morning for Celia.
