Then I nodded to myself as I knew what to do.
"I guess I will have to call Sona-san to tell her about the situation," I commented calmly. "She will be surely fix this issue at once by the time I'm done with that call."
The silver-haired teen looked surprised at the sudden development, but still managed a grateful nod before blinking in dread at a small situation.
"A-Actually..." She said before sighing nervously. "I don't have a calculator back home, senpai."
Now, that was something I could understand for certain reasons.
Since she didn't put much effort in the subject before today, I guess that she didn't mind doing homework without the device.
Still, the girl needed that kind of help and… I slowly walked out of the chair and towards the couch, where my school bag had been resting for a while now.
"Senpai?" Koneko asked in confusion and I nodded as I pulled the small calculator out of my pencil case.
"Tomorrow I will have to skip school again so… you can borrow it."
I placed it on the table, pushing it towards her.
"Once you are done with it, you will just need to give it to Issei and he will pass it to me when he pass around."
She frowned at the mentioning of the pervert. "Why should I even bother talking to him-"
"Because I am asking you to, Koneko-san," I replied with a calm but determined voice. "I know that you are both in the Occult Research Club, so I just hoped you would have the time to do that."
The girl contemplated the dreadful request as she valuated the pros and cons of accepting or not, and in the end she accepted it with a tired look.
"Fine… but I will not do anything else with the pervert, correct?"
I nodded and she hummed in agreement, thus returning back to the practice.
The calculator quickly gave a major boost to her effort, and the time for her to finish the exercises was reduced immensely, allowing her to validate her previous calculations better than before.
Two more hours passed and it was starting to get late enough for dinner when Koneko started to yawn tiredly, her golden eyes softly giving off a sleepy look as she rested a little more on the table.
I smiled and patted her shoulder. "I think you are ready for the exam, Koneko-san."
My words effectively got her attention, her eyes widening in surprise at the quiet declaration and her jaw dropped for a moment.
"B-But there were some mistakes."
"Minor ones," I chided kindly, causing her eyes to twitch in annoyance at my little stern tone. "You are more than ready to deal with the exam without major issues. Get some rest and-"
"B-But I think that I would enjoy more… time here."
…I hope that this isn't proof that I was correct early on.
I hope this isn't about some investigation.
"As I said, Koneko-san, you will have no problems in doing the test. Over-exerting yourself for some nervousness could end up making you too tired to sustain it if you continue to study session," I concluded with a smile.
"So… I should just-" She looked quite skeptical about it, but I wasn't finished yet.
"Go back home, eat something good and healthy for dinner and get some rest. You will deal with the exam with a fresh mind and a healthy body."
At the end of my words she did seem to flash a brief pout, but she quickly hid it by nodding at me.
"U-Understood, senpai."
A few moments later, the little kohai was helped to the door where we exchanged some goodbyes before I found myself dealing with the aftermath of this all.
I felt incredibly exhausted and my mind cried for some well-deserved rest after the crap I had to deal today… but I still had to make some calls before going to get some napping done.
Thus, sitting silently in the couch I spent few moments to regain some mental energy and started to call the two individuals I had to call before the end of the day.
"Tsubaki-san? I hope I'm not disturbing at this late hour but..."
Somewhere else...
"So… we got a situation."
With those few words, Azazel started the emergency session with most of the leaders at Grigori sitting by the large table of the meeting room.
From Shemhazai to Tamiel, the only one absent to this special sitting was Kokabiel.
Not a major surprise for everyone within the reunion, considering the circumstances behind his possible absence.
The man having long displayed major disinterest in partaking in this kind of meetings after the current leader had started to take a softer approach regarding the dealings with the other factions.
"What did you do?" Shemhazai and Baraqiel asked almost in unison.
The two shared an understanding glance before returning to stare at the frowning Azazel.
"I didn't do anything… this time," The Governor-General admitted with a sigh, the last words with a little bit of embarrassment. "But the situation is still a grave one."
"I hope this is indeed something important, Azazel-kun." Penemue stated, the General Secretary then giving him a teasing smile. "I still have to give you today's paperwork and- oh my, this time its twice than yesterday~."
"Cruel woman," The man started with some fake tears falling off at the mentioning of the greatest threat of them all. "But yes, we have an issue involving our elusive Kokabiel-san."
"The war-hawk?" Shemhazai asked curiously. "I thought he was already monitored after the recent situation about what had happened during World War I-"
"But it seems it isn't enough!" Azazel interjected with an exasperated sigh. "He did some more naughty things behind our backs and..."
The large screen in the room turned on, several documents and bank details of large transfers highlighted.
"We are risking another war."
…
"What?" Baraqiel slammed his closed fists on the desk, creating some minor cracks on it as he stared confused and angered. "Why didn't you inform us of this before?"
