No POV

Naofumi's cartridge, with Naofumi's group & Khiry's group, is approaching a ship.

Raphtalia: Is that the ship we're taking?

Atalanta: Looks like it.

The cartridge then made it to the ship. They see people waiting to get on board & the other heroes are in line as well.

Naofumi: Only so many ships can depart in a day. They're such idiots.

???: Even still, I was told by the queen that all heroes MUST be present. Otherwise, no go.

Naofumi & the others saw a woman. A female pirate captain with long wavy crimson pink hair, blue eyes and a scar across her face. She wears brown choker collar almost attach to her dark pink captain vest that shows her breasts, white pants, and long dark brown boots.

Naofumi: Sorry about that, miss...

Francis: Francis Drake.

Naofumi was surprised to see the King of Storms. Naofumi then looked at Khiry for an answer.

Khiry: The best answer I can think of is Materializations, either connected to history or otherwise.

Naofumi: Even gender change?

Khiry: Yeah. It is surprising. These two are prime examples.

Khiry then pointed at Mordred & Fran.

Raphtalia: Naofumi-sama, Let's go.

Naofumi: Yeah.

The group then got on the boat as Khiry's group was in one room while Naofumi's group was in the other. It was smooth sailing.

Khiry: No. When it comes to sauerkraut, you have to smell it to see if it's sour or not.

Astolfo: That is interesting.

Atalanta: Why did you wake up early?

Khiry: Just a few more items to make, like this food flask, chalk, & a net hat.

The group then looked at him to see if there was one more.

Khiry: Okay, okay. I have two other things: I fixed my old black cape into a magic cape. The other is that I was planning on changing my body. Maybe shapeshifting or change my physiology.

Naofumi then showed up.

Naofumi: Sorry to bother you, Khiry. You don't mind meeting with someone?

Khiry: That depends... Who is this someone? Should I be worried about you?

Naofumi: You tell me.

Khiry is curious about this someone. He then stood & decided to follow Naofumi. Khiry then activates his Presence Concealment. He then peeked at the new pair. One is a male that has spiked, red hair and is muscular. He has a tattoo of a scythe on his upper arm and appears to be handsome. The other is a woman that has has white skin that looks like ivory. Her hair is bluish-green and sparkles in the sunlight. Her hair is pulled back into a braid of three thick strands and draped. She wears bangles with a massive gem on both hands. Khiry's vision then shows those two & Glass side by side. Khiry then looked at Naofumi & deactivated his Presence Concealment. A few seconds later, Naofumi then showed up.
