Colton hesitated for a moment and sighed. Then, he said, “Maybe next time, Ivan. The Crawford family might not be in a convenient situation this year.”

Colton explained, “The mission was very dangerous, with various factions in conflict, and not everyone supported our country.”

“However, Cloud was incredibly brave. He ensured the safe return of everyone and was the last one to withdraw.”
