‘Wake up, is time for your next training… Draco, wake up!’
Yra opens his eyes, looking around the dark room.
Confused, he sits on his bed, the darkness and silence his company, he didn't know what to do anymore.
In the last few days, he focused on looking for Alyssa in different places, even using a location spell, but it was useless, it didn't work.
'Alyssa must be using some concealment spell, preventing me from locating her... Why?'
Yra remembers the first time he saw her, he was next to her, under a bridge on a rainy day.
And her look of fear, sadness, and anger was marked in his memory, despite her battered face, those Ice-Blue eyes expressed many things.
'Maybe... I'm no longer useful to her?'
"Ha." - a dry laugh, with a mocking tone, mocking himself. - "I'm an idiot... of course she would leave immediately if she found the opportunity... after all she hates me."
'The people I love either die... or they detest me...'
"Ah." - He lays back down on the bed, closing his eyes, and remembering Alyssa's face.
<<<>>>
Logan Seris was sad, the reason for this was when he discovered that the girl he loved had been one of the thirty-one missing women, each day one more was added to the number of missing.
He tried to use the locator spell that Yra taught him, but he was unsuccessful, then he decided to use it on his mother, and it worked, so in his mind he apologized to Yra, realizing that the spell did work.
"Ah..."
He was in a coffee shop, waiting for Yra to arrive, agreeing to meet here half an hour ago, but he still hadn't arrived.
Logan still didn't feel sure how to call him.
Friend? Master? Hero?
If he thought about it, he thought that Master was the most appropriate, after all, Yra had taught him magic, but... was that all?
Logan didn't know, and he didn't have the courage to ask Yra about it.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Logan detected several people with magic around, getting worried, he went deeper into the coffee shop, when suddenly, two people with magic entered, they were dressed in green capes.
'Magical Warriors?' - Alyssa had told Yra and Logan a little about what she knew about the Magical Warriors, including that their usual attire was to wear a green cape, with the Sakura Island logo on the back.
A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.
'What's going on?' - Logan wondered, who used a spell to enhance his senses, focusing on his hearing.
"Hello, can we have two blue coffees?"
"Of course, in five minutes they will be delivered." - said the manager, who began to prepare the blue coffees.
The blue coffee is originally from the Blue Dragon Empire, is has a sweet taste.
The two men sat down.
"Ah... this damn mission is exhausting, and how do they expect us to find the missing ones?" - said a Magical Warrior with an angry tone.
'Eh? Are they looking for the missing women?'
"Of course it will be difficult, and according to our location experts, they must be in a building where advanced concealment magic was used." - said his companion, in a much calmer tone. - "It's not for nothing that we have to search building after building and be lucky enough to find the right place."
"Ha, first the Dustrash massacre, and now the disappearances in Akademy, are we under attack?"
"I don't think so, the military would have been the first to notice, and we would be completely mobilized, this... must just be a very bad time to live."
Logan, who was still listening, and noticed that they began to talk about mundane things, stopped the spell.
"They're looking for them, but they're unable to find them because of... an advanced concealment spell...?"
Logan checks his IB, trying to contact Yra, but he doesn't answer.
...
KNOCK
After two minutes of someone knocking on the door, Yra finally opens the door.
"You know, the noise it's not only annoying for me, but for my neighbors as well, Logan."
"Ah, but, if you heard me, why didn't you open the door the first time I knocked on the door?" - said Logan who entered the apartment, sitting on a couch in the living room. - "Also, why aren't there doorbells?"
"I removed it."
Seeing Logan's shocked face, Yra laughed, a small relief of joy in his sad days.
"Just kidding, apparently it was the landlord's decision."
Logan nods, and then, stands up suddenly, causing Yra to raise an eyebrow in surprise, waiting to see what Logan has to said, and to be so urge.
"Yra, I need your help!"
"No." - Yra said quickly and coldly as he lay down on the sofa bed.
"..." - Logan just looked at Yra, and said nothing, feeling disappointed.
While Logan remained silent, he looked at the state of the place, lights off, bags full of trash not taken out, and at Yra, who had a lost look.
"Alyssa still hasn't returned." – Said Logan, clearly knowing what had Yra so depressed.
Yra just nods.
"You've tried..."
"I already used the location spell, and even an advanced search spell, and nothing."
Hearing those words, a thought grew in Logan's mind.
'Could it be?'
Logan turns on the TV, and when it turns on, the news channel is shown.
{it's already 31 people missing, and some experts say that maybe the number is...}
"Why are you putting that, turn it off." - says Yra.
"No, look, all the missing people are women."
"And?"
"Someone... the girl I like also disappeared."
"Too bad for you."
"And I used the location spell."
"Oh, I see, you found her and you want me to help you rescue her, come on Logan, I think I've trained you enough so that you have the power to defeat a couple of mere kidnappers."
"Incorrect." - said Logan who stared at Yra. - "I used the spell, and it didn't work, just like..."
"With me, perhaps?"
"You say that she left voluntarily with that person, but what if they are related, what if those who have kidnapped all those women, also have Alyssa."
"But... that doesn't explain..."
"They've mobilized the Magical Warriors, and I heard a couple of them say that their experts believe the women are in a building with a..."
"Concealment spell." - Yra also stood up, looking at the smaller young man, with a lean body, but with a brilliant mind.
Logan nodded.
{… the population that is being kidnapped is asked to take the appropriate measures, and if possible, not to go out on the street...}
Yra turned off the television.
"Give me a few minutes while I shower." - said Yra. - "We will go find that building."
