Yawn~ That was a good night's rest.

I got eagerly got up before remembering the awkward scene of last night.

Honestly, I was so confused and startled by the pirate captain's strong persona that I didn't even think to consider what she might be going through.

And then she ran up to me like it was the most natural thing. Even for me, I couldn't help but stand there awkwardly trying to comfort her.

She fell asleep crying in my arms like that, so I set her back down in her bed. She should be up by now, or getting up at least.

It's strange, ever since I came to this world, I haven't really thought about home much, nor have I ever felt regret for leaving such a peaceful planet.

The only one regret I had was the girl I had a crush on. No, perhaps now that she's gone I should probably admit that I loved her.

Well, she's gone, and we may never see each other again.

Still, thinking back to the time I asked that shitty god about her, it felt like he was lying, or maybe he was holding a piece of information from me?

Maybe next time I see him, I'll ask him and see how he responds.

Well, I can't think about that much right now, right now I should focus on dealing with this pirate girl and the treasure on the island.

Today is the fated day I get my hands on whatever is on here.

What's that? Your wondering how I'm going to carry it with me?

Isn't it obvious? I have storage magic!

Not. I'm a creature of the sea, what use would storage magic have?

I say that, but apparently one of my water magic spells can do something similar.

And there's your answer. Water magic.

It's apparently really hard to use and master though, so I should be careful when using it.

As I thought that, a groan came from the pirate captain's tent.

As she exited the tent, I couldn't help but notice how messy her appearance was, even more so compared to yesterday.

She wore a large mens shirt with a pirate coat dangling off her shoulders, she had quite a lot of bed hair as well, and her pants were missi...Let's not think about that.

She noticed my presence and give a sharp glare at me.

"What are you staring at?!" She yelled.

Well, I guess it's back to the tough pirate captain persona huh? To be honest, I did find her breaking down her defenses and opening up a little kinda cute, but oh well.

She's not my concern right now anyway.

"Nothing. I just realized we haven't given our names yet." I replied with a wry smile.

Although it was for a quick second, I could see the captain blush slightly.

"Your right, it's only proper for a gentleman such as yourself to give your name first, isn't it?" She said warily.

After she had said that, it suddenly occured to me. My old name was meaningless here.

I should have a new name, for a new identity. Although for some reason, I feel like sharing my old name, I don't think it would be very good to hear people remind of that old life.

Very well, time to give myself a name!

After a few seconds of thinking, nothing.

Wait, I got it!
