In an instant, the way everyone looked at Stella Sterling changed subtly.
Mr. Cheney, standing behind Stella, watched her with open admiration.
'Who would have thought that the young girl I met a few years ago would turn out to be so formidable!'
'But it makes sense. How could such a young girl have survived this dog-eat-dog apocalypse without some serious skills? And on top of that, she even built such a massive base!'
"Caeluna Base is getting way too arrogant. Just because they're strong, they resort to violence at the slightest disagreement."
"That's right. Caeluna Base might be strong, but attacking people on a whim shows a complete lack of respect for the rest of us. Or has Caeluna Base become so powerful that you think you can look down on everyone?"
Just then, an untimely voice rang out.
Everyone looked over and saw that the two people speaking, despite voicing their dissatisfaction with Stella Sterling, were standing quite far away from her.
