Chapter 2461: Plans . . • At the very least, I knew Ismena was fine and healthy right now. She also hadn't had any relationship with anybody either, so that's also good... I wouldn't want to suddenly find out she has a husband or something! But nope, she's completely dedicated to the family and "raising" me so anything else doesn't matter to her. Anyways forcefully trying to awaken her original memories could be detrimental to her, and it might also give me a penalty, so I have to do this slowly, perhaps over time. But for now, I wanted to talk to her about another thing. It is about Ryo, Amiphossia, and Evan's whereabouts. Although in my casual walks I haven't been able to find them yet, I know they're somewhere, I can feel and accurately pinpoint their estimated direction using my Cosmic Powers, without even letting them out of my body to disturb this world's balance. However, because of that very reason, I can't just go alone, I might need some help to find them, wherever they are. And well, as the young lady of the mafia of this city, I might as well employ my family forces, right? "I am looking for missing people, Ismena..." I said. "As someone I trust the most I would really like your help on this. And perhaps a few other agents." "Someone missing?" wondered Ismena. "But who could it be? I don't remember anything of that happening before..." "They're friends," I said. "...Of my friends. Technically, yeah. And they're very, very precious to them, so I want to find them for them." "I-I see... I had no idea young lady had such a kind heart for her friends, it seems you're indeed a good person," she smiled. "Most agents wouldn't like that kind of attitude in someone like you, the daughter of our large family but... I believe it is a beautiful virtue!" "Thank you Ismena," I giggled, patting her head, I couldn't resist it, she was too cute. She blushed a bit as I did something I had never done before, but it seemed she didn't mind at the end, thankfully. "And I really want to save them," I said. "With my developing abilities, I can more or less detect where they are now using the little clues and objects my friends gave to me." "I see! So your Mana Detection Ability has been mastered?" she wondered. "Wonderfully done, young master!" She clapped cutely. "Ah yes, I suppose it has," I felt embarrassed she still treated me like a kid. "Please don't treat me so childishly Ismena, I've already grown up..." "O-Oh, I apologize," she nodded. "Very well then, so you want us to find someone for you? It shouldn't be hard to start with some quick scouting first. We should send one or two scouts first to find where they might be. If they went missing and are still alive, they're most likely being held hostages by some criminal group, perhaps for human trafficking or something." "I sure hope not," I sighed. "But yeah, perhaps that's the case... Who are you sending?" "Of course, some ninjas of our family," she said. "Experts at sneaking, being undetected, and infiltrating areas of high security and coming alive with information." I would go on my own if it wasn't because my schedule as a student wasn't so damn thick, and my father isn't going to like me taking some days off to find them. I have to play around with the script I was given, but there's loopholes like these as well, to use the world itself for my benefit. "Hmm, name?" I asked, crossing my legs. "Yes, right here," she nodded, quickly summoning her grimoire and moving the pages. "Currently there's several ninjas available. As the young lady your father has finally given you enough authority to request their aid if needed. See? Your father trusts you more than you think, young lady." "It's nice he's letting me do my own operations as well," I nodded. "Anyways, let me see..." I saw the list, trying to look for familiar names, perhaps another person stranded here... But no, there wasn't anybody I recognized. I am fairly sure there's another of my wives as a servant here, and I think it's Ismena's sister, Acelina, but she's not here right now, doing another mission somewhere else. "I see... Where's your sister Acelina at, by the way?" "Oh, big sis? She's in a mission close to the mountains," said Ismena. "She's already coming back though; it was a small reconnaissance mission she had to do." "Really?" I wondered. "That's nice, but why did she go to the mountains? And which one?" "Near Mount Takao, strange tremors had been detected there," said Ismena. "Some of the magicians speculate the surge of a large Corrupted Domain, and your father gave the order for a reconnaissance, if it surges into a larger Realm, it would be a good place for the family to take over for more resources." "I see, father is as cunning as ever, huh..." I nodded. "Tremors though... Hmm." "What is it, young lady?" wondered Ismena. "Mount Takao, right?" I wondered, checking my phone, and then the GPS. "Mount Takao... Oh. It's there! It is where I felt their presences, Ismena!" "Truly?!" she wondered. "Then maybe things might be more connected than I imagined... I'll quickly tell these news to other agents and to my sister once she comes back." "Alright," I nodded. "Once she reports what happened, I would like to go personally with some agents." "Personally?! But young lady..." said Ismena, worried about my safety. "I know you're the boss' daughter, and you've inherited both your father and mother's incredible powers and magic abilities, but even then, you're still developing! I wouldn't really like if you risked your life going to such a dangerous place..." "I'll go with my loyal agents, and you, and your sister," I said with a smile. "I think it'll be fine... Don't underestimate me, Ismena. I am strong. As the daughter of my father, and the future inheritor of the Chaos Gate's Seat, I must enforce my strength and show the clan what I'm made for. This is the perfect opportunity." "Y-Young lady..." she looked worried, but also had a hint of admiration in her eyes. "Very well then. This humble servant shall help you in everything she can."
