If we can't afford to mess with them, can't we at least avoid them?!
With this in mind, Olga Marie has been paying close attention to her distance from Marne recently.
Basically, they try to avoid being together whenever possible, and if they can separate, they will never get too close. Even if they appear together, they must maintain a distance of more than five meters from each other.
Mashu nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
She knew what was going on between Ma En and the director, and sometimes she felt that Ma En was really in a difficult position.
Then Olga Marie appeared, stepped onto the podium, and began a stern speech.
Just as they started, a snoring sound suddenly came from the audience.
"hu~hu~"
Sitting in the corner, Gudako tilted her head back without any regard for her image, closed her eyes, and slept soundly, even blowing a bubble from her nose.
Olga Marie walked over with a dark face, pulled up the information, and found that Gudako was just an ordinary person. She immediately kicked Gudako out.
"Huh? Huh?! What's going on?"
Gudako stood outside the door, turning back in astonishment to look at Olga Marie, who was looking furious.
However, the other party did not answer her, and the door silently closed above her head.
"Pfft, hahahaha." En burst out laughing when he saw this.
Gudako, aren't you going to thank the director for saving your life?
Ma En laughed wickedly, while Mashu calmly said, "Senior has now been excluded from this spirit particle transfer test mission."
Faced with Mashu's unconscious follow-up attack, Gudako simply scratched her head and asked, "I see. So what should I do now?"
"You're new here, right? You probably haven't been assigned a dorm yet. Honey, why don't you take her to find a room? I need to go to the site with you later."
As Maen spoke, he habitually reached out and rubbed Mashu's little head, making Gudako envious.
She also wants to be close to cute girls like that!
"Well, I see."
Mashu nodded obediently, accepted the temporary task, and left with Gudako.
On the way, Gudako asked curiously, "Mashu, was that your father just now? He called you 'daughter' a moment ago, but you two don't look like him."
They really don't look alike. Not only are their hair and eye colors different, but their face shapes are also very different. Moreover, Maen looks too young; he still looks the same as before, only about twenty years old.
"He..." Xiu was about to answer, but he didn't know what to say.
If you're talking about disliking or being unable to accept Marx and Eng, then she's actually not resistant to them at all anymore.
But she was still reluctant to regard Maren as her father, and she really couldn't bring herself to call him "Dad".
In the end, all she could say was, "Ma Ensang is someone I'm very close to; he's always treated me like a daughter."
"Naruhodo." Gudako, unaware of the details, nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
"We've arrived. This is your room, senior. I'll head back there now."
"Oh, thank you, go quickly."
The two greeted each other and then parted ways.
After watching Mashu leave, Gudako opened the door and went inside.
Unsurprisingly, I ran into a doctor who was slacking off.
"..."X2
The two stared at each other in silence for a while, and then...
"Alas!" X2
Both of them were startled by the other.
"Who are you! This is my slacking-off spot, how dare you just barge in like that?"
"What do you mean 'your place'? This is my room! What are you doing here? Masaka (Could it be)? Are you a pervert? You must be!"
"Of course not!"
Roman retorted loudly with a dark expression, then said helplessly, "This is your room? So you're the final Master candidate? Oh no, this is my last place to slack off."
Gudako roughly understood what was going on and said somewhat speechlessly, "I really want to sympathize with you, but isn't it a bit inappropriate to use someone else's room as a place to slack off?"
"Oh?" Man raised an eyebrow, stood up, and looked at Gudako with a serious expression: "So you don't deny that slacking off is wrong? It seems you're quite knowledgeable, little girl."
Gudako gave a thumbs up and laughed heartily, "Of course, I used to skip classes from time to time when I was in school."
Then she looked at what Roman was holding: a laptop playing a video of some unknown virtual idol, and a strawberry cake.
She didn't care about the computer or anything like that; what she really cared about was the strawberry cake. She had been smelling its tempting aroma since earlier and couldn't help but swallow.
Upon seeing this, Roman immediately lost any semblance of camaraderie he had felt earlier and quickly protected the cake: "No! I can't share this with you. This is a rare delicacy that I finally managed to get from Marne. I want to enjoy it myself."
Then, feeling that this was a bit unfriendly, he added, "There's another cafeteria over there serving food, so consider it compensation for using your room without permission."
Gudako, upon hearing this, was about to scoff, but then suddenly realized what she meant and paused, saying, "Marne? Is it that Marne? The one Mash's father is?"
She had just seen him. Judging by his attire, shouldn't he be a technician? How could he produce such a fragrant cake? Could he actually be a chef?
"You've seen it?" Man was also taken aback, then realized, "Right, there's a preparatory meeting going on right now. But wait, what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be in a meeting over there?"
As he spoke, he looked at Gudako with some surprise and doubt.
Little sister, what's wrong with you?!
Chapter 213 The Collapse of Chaldea!
Well, it's like this.
When asked this, Gudako felt a little embarrassed, but she still explained the process, even though she didn't really remember much of it herself.
All she knew was that she was really sleepy and dizzy, so she couldn't help but fall asleep.
To be honest, you really can't blame her; she definitely didn't do it on purpose.
"I see. So it was because you angered the director. This is truly a disaster. You're probably in for a rough time."
As Roman listened to Gudako's explanation, he handed her the ordinary strawberry cake and poured her a cup of coffee.
Gudako silently accepted it, thinking it was free money, but upon hearing Roman's words, she immediately tensed up: "Huh? What will happen to me?"
"What will happen? If you ask Maren, he will definitely show you through his own experience."
"Huh? Ma Ensang also offended the director?"
"More or less." Although he knew the inside story, Roman couldn't reveal everything.
"What exactly will happen? If you don't explain clearly, I'll get more and more anxious."
"Actually, it's nothing, it just means I'll be assigned more work and kept a closer eye on me. Don't you see that Mar and En are doing just fine now?"
"Well, it's actually not so bad."
Gudako imagined it for a moment and realized it wasn't actually that scary.
Luo 433 Man smiled without saying anything. Whether it's scary or not depends mainly on your position. For someone like Marne, who has a sinecure, Olga Marie's level is already the limit unless she breaks the rules.
If you gave Marx and Engels a busier job, they'd probably be worked to the bone!
Just then, Roman's wristband terminal suddenly rang. He quickly answered it, and it was Rafe calling, asking him to come over.
"Okay, I know."
"Okay, try to be as fast as you can. It should only take about two minutes to get here from the infirmary."
After hanging up the call, Gudako couldn't help but remark, "This doesn't seem to be the infirmary, does it?"
Her reminder made Roman realize what was happening, and he immediately felt a little embarrassed.
However, he quickly put this awkwardness out of his mind and said nonchalantly, "Well, I'll just explain it later."
As he said this, he continued chatting with Gudako. He was about to introduce Rafe, but Gudako interrupted him.
“Professor Rafe, right? I know him. I’m more interested in that Marensang.”
As she spoke, she glanced at the cake in Roman's hand, which was almost completely devoured.
"He gave this to you. What does he do?"
Upon seeing this, Roman scratched his head and pondered for a moment before saying, "Marne, although he doesn't have any real achievements, he is the only scholar in the world who studies Heroic Spirits."
"Heroic Spirits, you should know about them, right? They are the beings that you Masters will use next. They are heroes, great people, and celebrities of the past, people who have left behind achievements and deeds that are widely known. Because their abilities are related to these deeds, their abilities will also be different."
"And Maren's job is to help you understand these differences, deal with various situations, and choose the right Heroic Spirit to solve the problem. This is the most direct guarantee for your Masters to complete their missions."
Gudako nodded, pondered for a moment, and said, "So, a historian?"
"It's not something as light and easy as that!"
Roman sighed and rubbed his forehead: "So were you even listening at all?"
"Leaving aside the fact that we can analyze the true extent of the heroic spirits' abilities based solely on the current legends, just the solutions for dealing with various situations require an extremely large amount of relevant knowledge."
"That's the key point. This is something that historians can't do. Not only do they need to have knowledge, but they also need to know how to apply it flexibly and analyze issues at the level of combat and strategy."
Gudako then slammed her fist into her palm.
"I see. So he is a strategist, or a staff officer in battle command."
"More or less, though it's not entirely accurate, but you can understand it that way."
Roman nodded in satisfaction and stood up.
"Alright, enough of this small talk, I should head over now."
Just as he was about to leave, he heard a loud bang, the whole room shook, and then the lights suddenly went out.
Gudako was startled and suddenly stood up.
"power cut?"
Roman immediately denied it: "Impossible, how could Chaldea have a power outage?"
Gudako, the newbie, might not know, but how could this seasoned veteran not know?
