Gepard? Pela! / Seele: Bronya? She's Not Even a Patch on Supreme Guardian Cocolia
After exchanging a few pleasantries and seeing that the atmosphere was just right, Gwen stopped beating around the bush and prepared to get straight to the point—
Cocolia Rand had already told Gwen a lot about the current situation in Belobog through the Chat Group.
However, for various reasons, it's often more appropriate to discuss things face-to-face...
Half an hour later—
"I roughly understand the situation..."
Looking at the photos laid out on the table, Gwen nodded slightly and said slowly:
"In short, you need a victory now, a glorious victory, to use the prestige that comes with a military victory to resolve some issues, and incidentally advance your plans, tightening your belt step by step."
"That's right."
Seeing that Gwen wasn't pressing her on the parts she'd vaguely explained, but instead cooperated by not demanding a thorough understanding, Cocolia quietly let go of some of her worries.
After all, this involves the entire Belobog plan. Although Cocolia needs external help, if the price is for Belobog to become a puppet of Gwen or the civilization behind him, then she needs to consider it more carefully.
Gwen's current apparent lack of interest in Belobog's internal affairs, focusing only on the points, is what puts Cocolia at ease.
"Okay, I will do my best to cooperate with you to win that war."
However, as mentioned before, because I still need to conceal my ability to contact other worlds, I cannot bring the high-tech equipment I have there to use, so my combat power may be reduced.
Moreover, because of the diversity of the world, I need some time to adapt so that I can unleash my full fighting potential here.
Ideally, I'd like to have a Pathstrider who can help me get familiar with the energy here.
If I could convert energy like in my world, my combat power would be greatly enhanced.
Since he was there to help, Gwen didn't stand on ceremony and stated his needs.
"Hmm... no problem."
Cocolia wasn't surprised by this. She nodded slightly, then picked out a few photos from the table and took out a few more from the drawer.
"These are all the people in Belobog who can spare the time to cooperate with your Pathstrider— "
There are outstanding new generation of Iron Guards, talented mechanic apprentices, and greenhorn warriors—it depends on your needs...
"..."
Looking at a few familiar photos among those on the table, Gwen pondered for a moment and made a decision—

Chapter 148 Gepard? Pela!
Three?
Seeing the three photos Gwen picked out from among the others, Cocolia raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised by Gwen's choice.
"Um..."
With a slight twitch of his fingers, Gwyn unfolded the three photographs in his hand. Looking at the photos that matched the characters in his Remembrance, Gwen nodded slightly.
"Since you're already preparing a counterattack against the Rift, they obviously can't be idle all day long and have enough time to help me."
Serval, who was organizing weaponry in the Silvermane Guard's equipment department, obviously wouldn't have much free time.
So, I decided to find a few more people and allocate some time from each of them; it shouldn't interfere too much with their regular work.
Based on what you've told me before, Gepard, as the captain of the Iron Guard squad, should be an academic with a good theoretical background.
Clara, a genius orphan girl from the downtown area, is a self-taught genius who loves mechanical repair and has an outstanding talent in the field of mechanical engineering. She should be the type who is good at fine manipulation.
Seele of the Fire Moth is also a self-taught genius, but all her talents are focused on combat. She can suppress a group of armed thugs with just an ordinary scythe, so she should be an intuitive type of player.
The three of them together basically meet my needs for a preliminary understanding of the Imaginary Energy of your world.
Gwen paused, glanced at Cocolia's knowing smile, and then continued.
"Moreover, correspondingly, I should also be able to provide them with some benefits—"
Experience dealing with different types of attacks, abundant mechanical engineering resources, and systematic training on the scythe should, to some extent, dispel their dissatisfaction with you relegating them to other tasks at this time.
"..."
Upon hearing Gwen's last words, Cocolia showed a hint of surprise, then smiled and nodded.
"It seems you've considered everything very carefully, so I won't interfere any further..."
Which side are you planning to start with?
Now that Gwen has considered these issues, Cocolia is preparing to arrange Gwen teaching.
"In terms of order, it's naturally best to start with Gepard first, since learning the theory first can save a lot of effort."
However, if possible, I would like to avoid disturbing their original work.
Therefore, I would appreciate it if Your Great Guardian, could arrange things for me according to their own working hours.
Gwen was quite cooperative in response.
After all, with Gwen's current strength, without the ability to use armor, he is not yet capable of dominating the war between Belobog and the Rift.
In that case, Gwen would not allow his own affairs to seriously affect Belobog's war preparations.
"In that case..."
Upon hearing Gwen's words, Cocolia pondered for a moment, then took out another document from the drawer.
"I suggest adding this person to your support staff—"
Pela Sergeevna, an intelligence officer for the Silvermane Guard.
Despite her young age, she has already earned a double honors bachelor's degree in War Studies and Intelligence Studies.
She received an honors degree because she was not yet old enough to be awarded a formal degree.
Although she didn't have the same family background in education as Gepard, Pela's knowledge was far richer and more systematic Gepard's.
Furthermore, as fellow Pathstrider, her research into her own power is more comprehensive, and her operation is more precise.
At the same time, as a friend of Serval, you can ask Serval for help if she can't answer some of your questions.
Of course, if you encounter any difficulties, you can consult me, and I will do my best to answer them.
"Academic talents?"
"Alright then."
Hearing Cocolia's recommendation, and knowing that Pela's abilities were indeed outstanding, Gwen had no objection, but continued to ask,
"So, who should I go to now?"
"As you know, I only have one day here, so I'd better make the most of it."
"Right now... Pela should be able to find the time—"
Let's learn some theory first.
Seeing Gwen's cooperation and his lack of arrogance despite being in a position of help, Cocolia felt even more respect for this friend from another world and offered her own advice.
With that, Cocolia gathered the documents from the table and stood up.
"Come with me, I'll take you to her."
"Good."
Gwen nodded and followed Cocolia out of the study.
Although his age is not much different from that of Cocolia on Earth, or even a little older.
However, perhaps because her body was affected by Imaginary Energy as Pathstrider, Cocolia Rand did not look old at all. She was still slender and there were no traces of time on her face. Gwen felt that she was even younger than Changguang.
If it weren't for the air of authority she exuded, Gwen would have even grouped her with the Valkyrie in their early twenties at headquarters.
However, while Cocolia's mature charm was indeed attractive, for someone who had been trained at Destiny Headquarters, keeping a straight eye on someone was nothing special to Gwen.
However, even though Gwen could keep his eyes straight ahead, the imposing and charismatic Cocolia suddenly emerging from the mansion with a strange young man inevitably drew more attention.
Although it is a tradition for the Great Guardian to remain unmarried throughout their lives, the sight of the two of them together inevitably draws attention.
The current turbulent situation within Berlöberg has led some to target Cocolia, Gwen, the pretty boy who suddenly appeared out of Cocolia's house, could naturally be one of the entry points.
However, even if it's a rumor, it takes some time to spread and won't affect the two of them now.
Following behind Cocolia, Gwen met his target: a petite, cute girl with round-framed glasses, Pela Sergeyevna.
After briefly introducing themselves and handing over the task to Pela, Cocolia didn't linger and left the Silvermane Guard's base.
Cocolia had delayed her work hours to prepare for Gwen's arrival. Now that she had finished arranging things for Gwen, she naturally needed to hurry up and handle official business.
After Cocolia left, Pela, whose face had been tense just moments before, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Gwen, and then invited him to sit opposite her:
"Hello, Gwen, please have a seat."
Chapter 149 Seele: Bronya? Not as Cocolia's Great Guardian.
After Gwen sat down, the petite Pela adjusted her round-framed glasses:
"Before we begin the formal instruction, let me confirm, Gwen, that you wish to learn about Imaginary Energy and the Pathstrider, is that right?"
Despite her short stature, Pela exuded a powerful aura, an invisible sense of authority befitting a "teacher" spreading out, causing Gwen to unconsciously sit up a few steps straighter.
"Yes, Pela ... intelligence officer."
When asked to address someone by their official title in a formal setting, Gwen nodded in affirmation.
"Alright, since the Great Guardian has given the order, I will do my best to teach you."
However, it should be noted beforehand that due to centuries of Cold Wave erosion, there has been no large-scale research in this field in Belobog.
All my relevant knowledge comes mostly from literature published before the Cold Wave, plus some results I've discovered through my own exploration. I cannot guarantee that it is all correct, so please be aware of that.
After receiving confirmation, Pela nodded and solemnly gave his explanation.
"Therefore, Gwen, you are welcome to ask questions when you have doubts about these matters, after all, the truth becomes clearer through debate."
"Okay, I'll leave the rest to Intelligence Officer Pela."
Gwen nodded, looking directly at Pela.
"Because it happened so suddenly, a lot of the information isn't available in the barracks, so please make do with my phone for today..."
After fiddling with her phone for a while, Pela pulled up the information she needed to show Gwen and presented it to Gwen.
However, looking at the unfamiliar characters, Gwen could only awkwardly begin to speak:
"I'm sorry, Intelligence Officer Pela, for some reason, I don't recognize Belobog's writing..."
"?"
Upon hearing this, Pela looked up and stared at Gwen with her slightly widened eyes.
Although the education rate in Belobog is not high even if you include the lower city, Gwen, Great Guardian Cocolia to teach her those profound knowledge, is illiterate... Could it be that they are making fun of her Pela?
However, seeing the composed expression on Gwen's face, Pela quickly suppressed her surprise and nodded slightly:
"Okay, I understand. I'll read it a little slower from now on. Listen carefully and speak up if you don't hear clearly."
Having been given such a strange task by the suddenly arriving Great Guardian of the military camp, Pela was already somewhat puzzled—
Pela, who is not known for his martial prowess at such a young age, has managed to secure the position of Silvermane Guard intelligence officer. This is not simply due to his academic excellence; his intelligence-gathering abilities are also fully worthy of the position.
In Pela's Remembrance, there was no such person as Gwen among the Silvermane Guard or even the upper echelons of Belobog.
In addition, he can speak Belobog, but doesn't recognize the Belobog script...
