*10th July, 2015 07:30 UTC, outside the Seitokai building gate*
Gilgamesh: Be hold, mortals. I shall be your overlord. Bow before me and be frightened of me!
*Gilgamesh opens the gate and sees Sora*
Gilgamesh: SORA! HAVE YOU COME HERE TO MEET YOUR KING? GOOD GRIEF! YOU SHALL BE MY--*falls into a trap which leads to the prison*
Sora: Now, stay here.
Gilgamesh: ARGH! WHY CAN'T I GET OUT!?
Sora: *shouting from above* I asked Jibril and others to set up magic.
Gilgamesh: RELEASE ME, SORA!
Sora: Sure, after we get a full Seitokai. You can do whatever you want by then. *leaves*
Gilgamesh: I WILL DEFEAT YOU, SORA! I WILL TAKE OVER YOUR SEITOKAI! MARK MY WORDS!
*15 minutes later*
Sora: Is Archer here yet?
Nanami: Uh... Oh, there he is.
Yuri: Why do we need him anyways? Surely Kosaki can go on her own.
Sora: The problem is precisely because she can't go on her own. She will probably fall asleep or even escape, rendering our efforts useless. Archer is an excellent butler, chef and babysitter. I see that he will do an excellent job. The voters are clever to vote him out of the polls. Archer, you think you can do it?
Archer: Yes.
Sora: OK, gentlemen. May I now reveal my plan. It's that thing in the corner.
Yuri: Right, that cloaked giant object?
Sora: Yes. Now, behold, the time-traveler!
*Sora pulls away the cloth*
Sora: I managed to get Jibril to invent this. This will allow Kosaki to go back in time with Archer to take tuition classes for this... what exactly again?
Nanami: The HKALE Pure Mathematics (AL) Exam.
Sora: Yes.
Yuri: I thought such things only either existed in
Doraemon, or be created by Angel Player... You actually can create one yourself!?
Momo: Whoa! Lend me this after Kosaki-chan comes back, and I will put it into
very good use!
Sora: Well, we better get going. We need them back before 08:30 UTC to take the exam itself. Kosaki, Archer, you two ready?
Kosaki: Erm... Yeah...
Sora: Don't freak out. You will do fine. Archer, thank you.
Archer: No need to say thanks.
Sora: OK, you guys will be sent to late December 2011. See ya!
*30th December, 2011, 05:00 HKT, Kowloon Bay, Hong Kong*
*Kosaki and Archer are standing in a queue*
Kosaki: Archer, why are we standing in such a LONG queue so early in the morning?
Archer: Apparently, such tuition courses are so popular that you actually have to wait in the queue that morning to even get a place. Some people have been waiting since 10:00 p.m. yesterday.
Kosaki: This is nonsense. Who is the tutor?
Archer: Oh. Charlotte.
Kosaki: Um,
which Charlotte?
Archer: See for yourself.
Kosaki: Is she a pop star or a tutor or what?
Archer: Apparently, the tutors are treated like celebrities here...
Kosaki: Anyway, how many lessons do I have to endure?
Archer: Thankfully, twelve only. It's an intensive course from late-January to late-April.
Kosaki: ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
*1 month later, during the first lesson*
Charlotte: So, to use L'Hospital's rule, you must have the limit in indeterminate form, say 0 over 0, or...
*Kosaki notices that Archer is very focused and tries to slip out, and was pulled at her sleeves*
Archer: Stay here, Kosaki. You want that position after you failed so many times, right?
Kosaki: BUT I CAN'T STAND THIS MATH! *gets blank stares from other people*
Archer: Just ask me whenever you don't understand stuff, or ask Charlotte. Is that OK?
Kosaki: *sits down* Fine...
*4 months later*
Archer: So, Kosaki, do you think you can pass? You asked Charlotte so many questions after class that even she got a bit annoyed.
Kosaki: I think so... perhaps barely.
Archer: OK, let's go back.
Kosaki: Um, how? I don't see the time machine here...
Archer: Stand still.
*Kosaki suddenly feels a surge of wind. Before she knows it, she is lured into unknown timespace*
*10th July, 2015, 08:16 UTC, Seitokai Room*
Nanami: Welcome back, Kosaki-chan!
Kosaki: Uh, my head is aching already.
Sora: Please resist it for a while. It's time for you to take the exam.
Kosaki: ... Sure.
*14 minutes later, Magistrate's Room*
Tomoyo: The time now is 08:30 UTC. You have 3 hours to work on the paper. You may start now.
*The link to the paper is available at
here.*
*3 hours and 30 minutes later*
Hinagiku: Congratulations Kosaki, you passed with 57 marks. You can now perform your duties.
Momo: Hurray! Now I can put her in my harem!
Kosaki: ... I prefer Ichijō-kun, sorry.
Sora: Chikaru, can we go aside for a talk?
Chikaru: Erm... Sure.
*outside the room*
Sora: So, why did you plan all this?
Chikaru: Oh. Well, people have doubts whether Kosaki can be a good treasurer, so I decided to make Hinagiku doubt as well.
Sora: Why PURE math, then?
Chikaru: Now, people doubt her mathematical abilities right? She's now conquered one of the world's most difficult high school math exams. That will shut peoples' mouths up. Also, she will now learn the treasurer math much quicker than before. You will need that, Sora.
Sora: Sure... Anyways, I get to ascertain my position as well, so thanks.
Chikaru: You're welcome.
