I stood on top of a house and sighed before finally spreading the Mana around the Capital of Herophia.
"Search!!"
An area plan immediately popped into my head, this is the plan from the Capital of Herophia. Right, this is the Skill I gained while trying to spread Mana around to map the Herophia Capital. I obtained this Skill from Master Lilith's suggestion 3 days ago, right after Kyla was kidnapped.
I've already told this to Master Lilith, but she hasn't found any clues to their whereabouts at all. Then Master Lilith gave me a suggestion to spread Mana around, as I asked permission to help them. Along with that too, I obtained this Search Skill.
"I thought this was impossible! They were completely untraceable at all!" I said stop using Search and go where I have not used Search.
Search had a limited range in usage, although my Mana was quite a lot, but for now I could only map out about a radius of 12 meters from where I stood. If I want the radius to increase, I have to increase the level of Skill Search.
Actually every night I also always roam in an empty alley to be bait. But no one tried to kidnap me and take me to the place where they locked up the children they kidnapped.
There are two possibilities I can guess. First, they are not interested in me and prefer those of mixed blood to be kidnapped. Second, they could not kidnap anymore because the quota they were after was sufficient and prepared to leave the Capital.
"If my second chance is right, it means I don't have much time left! Search!!"
I stopped the next location and used Search to track their actions. Actually, they act not at night, but when the day like this is crowded, they also act. It was likely that someone had a Stealth Skill amongst them that was told to act, but that was not very possible either. Recalling, the Assassin Association raised its hand against the case by saying none of its members were involved in the case.
After all, the Assassin's job is to kill targets, not kidnap little girls. That was what their leader told Master Lilith and those investigating the case.
Feeling that I found nothing here, I decided to move to the next location. This continued I repeat, until unconsciously the day had begun to darken and my stomach began to rumble.
"Ugh.. Because I was too busy with tracking, I forgot to have lunch! My stomach has even started to protest, how is this?" muttered.
"Ah, you're here apparently!"
I immediately looked back and saw that Master Lilith was already behind me and carrying a Meat Bread in her hand, she then threw it at me and sat down next to me.
"How about a short break? You haven't had lunch, have you? Eat it" he said.
"Thank you" I said and ate the Meat Bread that Master Lilith had given me.
"How about finding a clue?" ask Master Lilith.
I just shook my head as I chewed the Bread he gave me.
"That's so. We thank you so much when you volunteered to help us, but don't forget about you right now. Although which one you have is abundant, but your Stamina is limited, right? After all you currently have the body of a 7-year-old girl, so don't push yourself well! If you are tired, rest. Understood?"
I shook my head at Master's statement. He said, "Thank you for your attention, teacher. But anyway, I have to manage to find Kyla. He's my friend, that's why I have to save him!"
Teacher Lilith sighed hearing my reply. He asked me what I would do next. I said, that I would stick to the plan as before, which is to make myself a bait.

Evening arrived, I decided to walk in deserted places as planned. But this time, Master Lilith will not be watching over me. He has a meeting with the other members, so I have to be more careful again.
"Then, they don't show themselves well at all!" muttered.
"Bingo!" I said when I got the perpetrators' leads.
Actually I'd love to beat him up, but if it were like that I wouldn't be able to find their hideout. I feel sorry for that girl, but what can I do.
"My guess is right! They're only after mixed-blood girls!" I muttered when I saw the girl he was after.
I just muttered, she quickly shut the girl's mouth and knocked her unconscious. He took the girl and ran away quickly. Surely I don't want to lose track and follow him from behind.
I chased him from a safe distance, which was 10 meters. Surely I used Search so as not to lose track of him, several times he looked back to make sure he was not followed. Fortunately I used Illusion on myself and made it seem like I was not behind it.
Before long, he went to an unused warehouse and went in there. I who saw it quietly approached the warehouse and looked through the window in a state of still using Illusion.
I saw a lot of girls crying and showing their sad faces. But I can't hear anything at all, could it be that they are using magic that hides sounds?
"Then. O Darkness, there is no magic! Dispel!!"
I used Dispel into both of my ears and was finally able to hear the sound of their cries well.
"Hey! I'm getting a new girl!" said someone who entered the room with a little girl.
"Oh, good job! Just put him along with the others!" reply to one of the two people who had been there before.
"Okay!"
The girl immediately joined the girls who were locked up in a small prison. Anyway, I have to ascertain the number of enemies first. But before that, I had to put them to sleep.
"O Dark Lord, put my opponent to bed! Sleep!!"
One by one they start to get sleepy and fall asleep. The girls who were there were confused by what happened. I then tapped the window quietly and put my index finger in my lips to tell them to be quiet.
Those who saw me stared expectantly, including Kyla. I smiled meaningfully and immediately went to another window to check on the remaining enemies. There were 4 people there, who were eating their food. Without a doubt I used Sleep and managed to put them to sleep.
I used Dispel on the door to make sure there was no alarm that would make the kidnappers wake up. Slowly, I opened the door and made sure no one woke up from their sleep. I then went into the room where the girls were locked up, those who saw me were happy that Kyla was no exception.
"Allen! You came to save Kyla? Nyaa~"
"Ssttt! Shut up, or they might wake up later!" my sweat.
I then checked all of them, and made sure no tools would be able to track them later. After making sure everything was safe, I immediately used Dispel and opened the prison. I told them all to come out one by one carefully, whereas I myself would make sure none of them woke up.
