Everything went smoothly this time.
When the member from Meridia Base came before her, Stella Sterling voluntarily took out a dagger and placed it in the bag.
She had just retrieved it from her personal dimension; all her weapons were stored there.
In any case, she had to hand something over to put everyone else at ease.
Otherwise, who would believe that the esteemed leader of Caeluna Base hadn't even brought a weapon for self-defense?
Stella Sterling scanned the conference hall. The facilities and decor were all quite simple, nothing extravagant.
All the subordinates the base leaders had brought were now outside the hall, and everyone had surrendered their weapons.
'It would be quite a show,' she thought, 'if Meridia Base suddenly went back on their word and took control of us all.'
But it was just a passing thought. She knew perfectly well that unless Meridia Base had gone completely insane, they wouldn't do something so foolish.
