After changing, Grey heads toward the exit. Sakuya is already waiting by the doorway.

"Have you decided where to work?", she asks.

"I would like to help Patchouli in the library."

"Alright, leave your Outsider clothes here. I'll have one of the fairy maids wash it later," she says. Sakuya gives him directions to the library, then leaves.

Deciding to go straight to work, Grey walks along the hallways without pausing. He soon finds himself in the Mansion Library.

"Oh, I'm glad you decided to help," says a voice to the left.

Grey turns to see Koakuma carrying some books. "Don't think that you can slack off. Its been a week since Sakuya sent some help around here," she says, gesturing behind her. There are five fairy maids to the right, each carrying a pile of books. Koakuma quickly empties her load onto a pushcart as Grey approaches.

"Here, use this map and catalogue list to organize the shelves at the East wing. I need to supervise the others to make sure nothing gets messed up. You should find a pushcart on the way; you can use it to move the books. Think you can handle that?"

Grey smiles and nods. Sorting books doesn't seem that difficult.

"I'll come to fetch you in a couple of hours," Koakuma says.

She pauses for a moment, then asks quietly, "Would you like to have some tea with me afterward?"

"I'd love to have tea with you," Grey replies.

Koakuma smiles brightly.

"Then we better finish up quickly, then," she says.

Grey nods as he heads toward the East wing.
