"So what if I'm the only woman who's been stranded with you. Are you still going to make a colony?" Ask Emilia.

Nathan thought for a moment before shaking his head. "If I do it, it's the same as suicide. Your father will definitely not let me live a quiet life afterwards..."

"There's nothing wrong with your words. For a father to know his daughter was forcibly slept with by a man, of course he would be very angry. Especially if her daughter is beautiful like me..." Emilia smiled faintly.

"Right, but did I ever think you were pretty? Seems not..." Nathan replies without thinking about what will happen after him.

For the first time Emilia heard someone who did not praise her beauty and just seemed to think of her as a joke.

"Don't lie it's obvious in your eyes..." Emilia.

"Sorry doctor, it looks like our topic of conversation has gone off the mark. I'm just here to do an examination and not talk about women's beauty..." Nathan's reply.

Emilia smiled though it was so noticeable that she was actually upset by Nathan's treatment of her.

"Alright I'll check on you right away, but before that you better take a shower first. Your body stinks..." Emilia.

Hearing Emilia's words, Nathan then smelled her body and she did not feel the same way as the woman. Precisely the aroma of his body is still the same and does not emit a pungent aroma.

But because he did not want to linger because he had to immediately meet Admiral Frank, Nathan then immediately borrowed the bathroom of Emilia in the neighborhood.

After cleaning her body and changing clothes with new clothes that Emilia had prepared for her.

Nathan is examined by Emilia and there is nothing wrong with the man's body or mental condition.

"Interesting, for someone who is stranded on an island alone. You have no health problems at all..." Emilia.

"Of course, I'm no ordinary man..." Nathan replied with confidence.

"What about your little sister, is she okay?" Emilia said with a meaningful smile.

"Don't you check on Harry earlier, why are you still asking me?" Nathan asked who did not understand what Emilia really meant.

Emilia grieved in annoyance. "The foolish base was signalled not to understand. Get out of my room, don't you want to meet your boss!?"

Seeing the attitude of Emilia who suddenly felt annoyed at him, Nathan could only fall silent and leave the upset woman alone.

A few moments later Nathan arrived at Admiral Frank's office and was immediately invited inside by two guards.

As soon as he entered he saw that Admiral Frank was waiting for him inside. "Sit down..." Said Admiral Frank.

"Try explaining how you got stranded on an uninhabited island. Didn't you get shot down?" Ask Admiral Frank.

"Look, at that time I actually managed to break free. In the war the other day instead of a storm, from there I was unconscious carried away by the current and ended up stranded on an island..." Nathan's reply.

Admiral Frank who heard Nathan's story is a little less trusting, but he is forced to believe it after the man says about the storm.

"Oh yes, what about the battle back then sir?" Nathan asked to distract Admiral Frank who was thinking about his illogical words just now.

"We managed to repulse the Japanese Fleet, but by then there was a mysterious creature that appeared to help our side and I will distribute it after returning later..." Said Admiral Frank who was replied by a nod by Nathan.

For an hour Nathan was forced to listen to Admiral Frank's story about the battle of the time and could only smile while nodding at all times.

"Now I want to ask you for an explanation about my daughter. Do you know because of your fake death, my daughter ignored me for a few days. As a father, I obviously didn't like this. You understand what I mean, don't you?" Said Admiral Frank.

Nathan smiled nervously and instinctively said something dangerous would come soon if he said something wrong before the middle-aged man.

"Yes, I understand sir." Nathan's reply.

"You can leave now and don't forget to solve this problem before sunrise tomorrow..." Said Admiral Frank.

Nathan can only nod and then go to his room, to think about the problems between father and son that he himself does not know why to blame.

Nathan sat on the edge of the bed and massaged his forehead with Emilia's behavior. He himself could not blame the woman and understood why she could do this.

This makes Nathan remember Alicia who has almost the same nature as Emilia and the only difference is their attitude.

"If I stay for twenty-five years, what if I come back later. Is there a time difference, Echelon?" Ask Nathan.

"There is a difference in time, sir. You will be considered lost for two and a half months upon returning later..." Reply Echelon.

"It looks like I'll shut up after coming back, but let it be... Oh yeah, how did people in this time get to know me?" Nathan Said.

"Do you forget the butterfly effect. This thing that accidentally makes you seem to have a life in this time, sir..." Reply Echelon.

Nathan nodded and understood the intent given by Echelon. Nathan accidentally saw a gun in a drawer while looking for a picture he made a few days ago.

Nathan picked up the gun and saw that there was a shell casing inside. Echelon's words about his immortal self in this time instantly crossed Nathan's mind.

"Are you sure of what you said about me that couldn't die at that time, Echelon?" Ask Nathan.

"Theoretically this is true, sir..." Echelon.

Hearing Nathan's theory a little hesitant but out of curiosity and trust with Echelon, the man then put the tip of the gun on his head.

When Nathan wanted to shoot himself in the head Emilia who had made up her mind to meet him accidentally saw the incident.

As soon as Nathan pulled the trigger Emilia immediately brushed off her gun and made the bullet fail to shoot the man in the head.

"What do you want to do, you idiot!" Said Emilia while holding Nathan's collar, which the man was underneath.

"Well, what are you doing here. I'm just gonna do a test run..." Nathan Said.

After saying that Nathan saw Emilia's reddened eyes and looked teary.

"If you have a problem, don't just hide it. I'm ready to hear your story and don't act like this. I don't want to lose you again..." Emilia.

Nathan is speechless and does not expect that Emilia really cares and likes him. At that time Nathan thought that Emilia was only joking and never serious.

Emilia then hugged Nathan and made him feel something he had never felt from anyone.
