Blond Guy ran over here, sat down on the ground generously, and then quite naturally grabbed a skewer of meat from the coconut shell and took a big bite. After finishing this series of actions, he finally looked at Henry Walker: "Ha, sir, what's your name?"

"Henry Walker, and you?" Henry Walker replied casually. At this moment, all the muscles in his body were tensed, ready at any time to give this "rival in love" a show of strength.

"Haha, my name is William Carter." Blond Guy introduced himself: "David Clark, how did you end up here? This should be a deserted island, right?"

"Yeah, I drifted here after being shipwrecked." Henry Walker raised his eyebrows and answered.

"Ha, I see." William Carter smiled, then turned to face Emma.

"Hey~~ Emma, why are you always like this? You always put on a cold face when you see me, that's not good at all! Come on, give me a smile!" William Carter sat cross-legged and started "teasing" Emma Carter right in front of Henry Walker.

Emma Carter raised her head coldly, still holding a skewer of grilled meat in her left hand, but at the same time, her right hand was already gripping her longsword.

"Uh~~ Emma, that's not nice! I just wanted you to smile, why do you have to draw your sword?" William Carter kept "teasing" Emma Carter while eating the meat skewer, completely oblivious to the danger.

Swish! With a sound, the longsword in Emma Carter's hand was already out of its sheath, slashing toward William Carter.

"Crack, crack, you're serious!" William Carter leaned back and narrowly dodged Emma Carter's sword.

But right after, Emma Carter's sword suddenly came down in a vertical slash! William Carter broke out in a cold sweat, his body moving oddly to the left to narrowly avoid Emma Carter's longsword. "Girl, are you trying to kill me!" William Carter wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Emma Carter raised her eyebrows and withdrew her sword.

"Uh~ Emma, you're still the same as ever!" William Carter stuffed the meat skewer into his mouth: "Delicious! I can't believe something that looks so ugly tastes this good! Truly unexpected!" After swallowing the grilled meat, William Carter couldn't help but exclaim.

"You're too kind." Henry Walker replied indifferently.

After sheathing her sword, Emma Carter sat back down to the side, ignoring William Carter, and quietly picked up a meat skewer to eat.

……

Henry Walker sat to the side; he didn't go over to give William Carter a "show of strength." Because from what had just happened, it seemed that the relationship between William Carter and Emma wasn't that of a man and a woman.

"Oh, right. Henry Walker!" William Carter ran over to Henry Walker and said, "How did you meet my Emma? Others may not know, but I do. My Emma is really cold! She's a famous ice queen around here. Even though she's beautiful, men lose all desire when they see her..."

Swish! Before he could finish, Emma Carter's longsword had already slashed over, and this time there seemed to be a faint golden glow on the blade!

"Uh~ Emma is angry!" William Carter leapt to the side to dodge Emma Carter's strike.

Henry Walker smiled and replied calmly, "Heh, I just met Emma as well. She saved my life just now, and I invited her to have something to eat. That's all."

"I see~" William Carter chatted with Henry Walker while dodging Emma Carter's sword: "Forget it, I thought you and Emma might have something going on. Let's not talk about that. By the way, James Clark, what are you planning to do next? Since you drifted here, when do you plan to go back?"

"Heh." Henry Walker gave a bitter laugh: "I don't even know where I am right now. If possible, I'll figure everything out after I get off this deserted island!" At this moment, he seemed to understand why this beautiful swordswoman Emma was so annoyed by William Carter's voice—he really was a chatterbox, and Emma was probably like Grace, the type of woman who didn't like to talk. Their different personalities naturally led to Emma's dislike of William Carter.

"I see." William Carter dodged left and right to avoid Emma Carter's sword, then replied, "Then David Clark, do you want to come with us?"

"Hmm? Go where?" Henry Walker asked.

"Ah~~ ouch~ ouch~" William Carter suddenly cried out in pain. While chatting happily with Henry Walker, he was cut by Emma Carter's longsword and cried out from the pain.

Emma gave a cold smile, sheathed her sword, and then went back to her grilled meat business.

"Uh~~ Emma, I'm bleeding, help me out!" William Carter pleaded with a bitter face.

Emma turned her face away and continued eating her grilled meat.

"Ugh, forget it then!" William Carter said in frustration, then came over to Henry Walker, picked up a skewer of grilled meat, and said, "I came here with Emma to visit a dragon's lair."

"Dragon's lair?" Henry Walker immediately perked up! In all the novels he'd read, a dragon's lair usually meant a few things—dragon girls, treasure, magical artifacts!

"Yeah, that's right. Emma and I came here to visit a dragon's lair." William Carter took a bite of the grilled meat skewer and continued, "We're going to the dragon's lair to bring back a child."

"A child?"
