As the teacher continued to her lesson, the poor woman couldn't help but feel nothing but fear as she could feel the harsh glare being thrown her way by the much too tall and too scary Asterios Minos.

She still thought that it was absurd that he was a First Year, but she couldn't say anything. Part of it was just her not wanting to raise a stink over it, another part of her was afraid that if he ever found out…

She shuddered as she continued her lessons.

At his place at the back of the class, Asterios eyes narrowed as he tried to understand that weird writings on the blackboard.

A moment later he heard a knock on his desk, and looked down to see Koneko had turned her chair to face him. "You doin' okay?" She asked him, before jabbing a thumb to the blackboard at the front of the class.

Asterios shook his head "new words, i don't understand them."

"Need help again?" Koneko offered "It's pretty much the same thing I taught you last night."

All around them they heard the whispering and the mumbling from their classmates. At first it had been mumbles and curses, but the longer Asterios and Koneko interacted, it was filled with giggles and quiet squealing from their female classmates.

While the few male classmates couldn't help but grumble in jealously.

"that would be nice," Asterios nodded his head.

"Um… Toujou-san," the teacher had stopped writing on the blackboard and called out "Please turn your chair around an- Urk" The warning was cut short when the teacher met with red eyes.

"she's helping me learn," his voice never rose higher than it usually was, but it still carried such a dangerous tone.

"B-B-But…" The teacher stammered.

Asterios continued staring at her "i can't understand some of your words, so koneko helping me."

She felt a sting to her pride as a teacher, and felt even more fear. She merely nodded her head and turned back to the blackboard and kept writing, her words more stilted than before.

Koneko snorted in amusement.

Of course after that class had ended, Asterios soon found himself called to the Student Council office.

[Scene]

"Hello Toujou-chan!"

Koneko gave a silent nod as a reply when she entered the girl's locker room, the Devil walking towards her own locker to change clothes for gym.

As she did, her enhanced hearing picked up noises from one of the abandoned lockers. Apparently it was cursed, and whoever used it would die or something.

Initially she thought that it was just falling apart due to lack of use or whatever. But then she could hear people.

"Oh shit, we hit the jackpot that Toujou-chan right there!"

"Wait what?! Koneko?"

Her eyes narrowed just as she was about to grab her gym clothes. Of course it was the Trio, and among the Trio was Issei.

She could already feel his bones cracking under her fists.

"Aren't you glad we showed you thi- Hey HEY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!"

"C'mon guys we can't just peek on her!"

"What do you mean, we should exactly peek on her! Get your hands out of my face dude."

Koneko raised an eyebrow.

"Toujou-chan, we're leaving." One of her classmate called out to her. The stick was in her hands, one that she tossed towards the white haired Devil, who caught it easily. The rest of her class was dressed and ready, while she was still in her normal uniform.

"I'll be a moment," Koneko replied as she could hear the commotion increase. When the rest of her classmates left, she was now alone in the locker room.

"What's the deal Ise?!"

"Ain't you guys bros? She's like Asterios' girl, that and if she founds out I'm here, she'll freakin' KILL me!"

The corner of her lips upturned for a smirk, before they dropped down to her neutral look. She deposited the stick into her locker, and then walked towards the locker where she could hear all the noise.

"And she won't. And even if she did, what's the worst that co-"

Her fist sunk into the metal locker, deforming it on contact. She could sense the other two fainting immediately; the shock must've fried their brains. When she pulled open the locker, the two of them fell out, twitching on the ground.

Her yellow eyes then landed on the last boy that had been hiding inside the locker, cowering from the now busted door.

"Heh Heh," Issei waved weakly "Heeeey, Koneko. Fancy meeting you here…"

She looked unimpressed by his words.

He cowered a bit under her gaze "I don't suppose you can just, let me go?" He asked.

Koneko rolled her eyes "I'll say this, I'm happy you took mine and Asterios' thoughts into consideration." She gave him nod and small slight "That gets respect."

Issei's eyes widened "So you heard that?" He smiled just a bit "So does that mean-"

His words were cut short when Koneko cracked her knuckles "I won't aim for your face, yes." Her eyes narrowed "No promises for not going below the belt though."

Outside of the main building, Asterios couldn't help but look around confused as he could hear both the sound of someone screaming in pain as well as the sound of Koneko's fist punching something repeatedly.

[Scene]

Both Koneko and Asterios watched Asia heal Issei, both of them eating the snacks that the Minotaur had bought during lunch.

"I swear, you can be such a boy sometimes." Rias shook her head at the poor state of her Pawn.

"What can I say, I just went with the flow with Motohama and Matsuda," Issei chuckled before wincing and covering his chest with his arms, something that Asia had to move to keep healing.

"But," He raised his head to give a serious look at Asterios "Don't worry Asterios, I made sure not to see anything at all when I noticed that Koneko was there."

Asterios looked confused, but he recognise the tone and gave a confused sounding "thank you?"

Issei gave a thumbs up.

One that he had to lower so that he could cover his head when a juice box sailed over it.

"Don't try to say something cool when you're talking about something perverted." Koneko told him, before her eyes went to Asterios "Also don't thank him for something like that."

"oh okay," Asterios nodded "i don't thank you issei."

Despite himself, Issei couldn't help but snort and chuckle, which only made him wince some more in pain.

"Stop laughing Issei," Asia called out in worry "You're going to hurt yourself more!"

"Well besides that little incident," Rias looked around the clubroom "Did anything else happen?"

"i got a warning from other president, told me to stop scaring the teachers." Asterios brought up.

"Other…?" Both Akeno and Rias looked at each other confused at the title.

"He means Sona-senpai," Koneko explained "And don't worry, Asterios isn't doing anything crazy in class. The teacher is just being a wimp."

Yuuto couldn't help but laugh.

"Don't let Sona hear you call the teachers that Koneko," Rias smiled "And Asterios, definitely don't call Sona that."

"oh…" Asterios looked away with a blush on his face "…i'll try."

"That's a guilty look on your face Asterios," Akeno giggled "Tell me, do you call Tsubaki 'Other-Vice-Principle' as well?"

Another mirthful giggle escaped Akeno's lips when she received a nod from him.

"I hope Sona' doesn't take it too personally," Rias spoke up "We may be friends, but we're still rivals." The smile turned sympathetic "She didn't do anything else did she?"

The Minotaur thought for a couple of seconds "she told me to stop coming to school with koneko my shoulder. she said that she gave a warning before."

"No chance." Koneko spoke up, her reply muffled by a melon bread.

"also," his eyes glanced at his hair "she also said that i might need to cut my hair, said that it's too long."

"Definitely no chance." Koneko added in.

"Koneko I think you should at least take some considering of her words," Asia said, her voice tinged slightly in distress "I mean… she's just trying to keep the rules of the school."

Koneko didn't answer, only humming as she took a larger bite.

Yuuto shook his head "I don't think words are gonna convince her Asia, when Koneko wants something she doesn't let go." The handsome blonde turned his gaze to the Minotaur "But what you Asterios? Are you okay with this. I mean you don't have to listen to everything Koneko says."

"i'm fine with it," he shook his head to dismiss his concerns "i trust koneko, more than other president at least."

Everyone in the room couldn't help but see the smug smile on Koneko's face when he said those words.
