Edgar didn't pay Gewen any heed. He patted his friend's back and looked straight into his eyes. "You have one week to say goodbye to your mother. After Sand gets his rest, I will send him back to Summeria, and you are coming with him."
Gewen pursed his lips. He was not a coward. He would die for his country, especially for his best friend. He would do anything for Mars.

He planned to get a wife to make his mother happy when the time came. However, now he realized that the opportunity might never come.
