"I'm not one for unnessecary violence Nina, but perhaps i should remind you i will shoot you right here right now if i consider you even the slightest threat."
He kept a stern face.
He then listened to Traudel's logical analysis of what would happen if Nina tried to escape. "How does she do that?" He thought. He knew from previous encounters they were known adversaries of each other.
Maybe they built some kind of likewise respect? "Listen to Oberleutnant Traudel, Nina. She seems to make more sense to you than i ever will."
He turns his head back to Traudel after hearing her question. "Patrols, bases, technology.. any new info could be useful for us all." "Also...-" He checked that Nina couldn't hear them. "We could try and get info about Crete. I mean good info!" The terraforming, economic situation and even more important: their planetary defenses."
"That, with the right leadership (an indirect slight to Stahl) might turn the tide of the war."
