Throughout the trip, Glades Horne was silent, his lips pressed tightly together, his hands gripping Julia Bluen's tightly. Although Julia was also very worried and nervous, not knowing exactly what had happened to Marcel Horne, seeing Glades in such a state, she suppressed her own worries and anxieties, soothingly holding his hand back. Comforting him, she said, "Glades, don't worry, Brother Marcel will be alright."
That was what she said, but when Julia thought of the way her sister wept on the phone, her heart still clenched tight. Glades didn't speak and merely turned to glance at her once, seeing the consoling look in her eyes, he took her into his embrace.
Although it was a time of peace, unlike the era of war where soldiers were in much greater danger, unexpected incidents could still happen during routine training. If Marcel had gotten into trouble in the military, it was likely due to an accident during training.
