Daichi was confused as he looked at the quest status. 'Why isn't it saying I completed the quest? Is there something more I have to do…?'

Daichi pondered on this question for a couple of minutes. 'The fact that I haven't received a quest completion notification means Reo is still in danger. But how? I made sure no one saw me coming here. So how…?'

Daichi turned to Miss Aiko. 'Is it possible? Could Aiko be the threat?... No! Based on my memories she doesn't seem like that kind of a person. And my 'Observe' didn't show anything problematic. Kensei trusts Miss Aiko as well. Of that I'm sure. So then she must not be the problem… So then what is it?... She might not be the problem but maybe she might have an idea as to what is…'

"Miss Aiko?"

The matron turned around at Daichi's call. "Yes Daichi?"

"Ren made me promise to keep Reo safe. So is there a possibility of people finding out about her?" Daichi asked in an unsure tone.

"Daichi, she's a member of the Uchiha clan. People will find out about her one day."

"I know that. I'm just asking if there is any chance her enemies would find out about her in the coming days or weeks…?"

Aiko thought about the question. A couple seconds later her eyes widened as she remembered something. Daichi seeing her face became slightly tense.

"What is it?" The boy asked.

"In the private archives, a record of every person living in the village is documented. It only has the basic information but it will be there. The moment a baby is born a record would be made and kept in the archives in her family files. "

Daichi's eyes widened hearing Aiko's words. She continued.

"The baby's record would be filed with their parents' documents…"

Daichi now understood why the mission wasn't completed yet. He still had something to do.

"There will definitely be an investigation on this matter when the Hokage finds out what Itachi did. So they would check the dead bodies to the records kept in the archives to see if anyone is missing… And they would find out about her…" Daichi said, looking at Aiko.

The matron simply nodded. Daichi was in deep thought. He had a simple solution in mind but he was unsure if Miss Aiko would help him.

'I'll have to use Mana puppetry on her if necessary.'

"Do you know where the records are kept?" Daichi asked the matron.

Aiko knew exactly what Daichi was going to do. "Daichi, are you planning on committing a crime and asking me to be an accomplice?"

Hearing Aiko, Daichi pointed at the sleeping Reo. "I'm asking you if you're planning on helping me save her life… Itachi is a genius and formidable. Everyone in the village knows that. If he finds out about her then he'll come back and finish the job. And then me for saving her. And not to mention what the unknown traitors in the village would do if they found out about her… The only way to keep her safe is if we erase her existence on paper for good."

Aiko was torn between her loyalty to the village and her love and compassion for children. At that moment the words Kensei said to her years ago came to mind.

"Just because Hiruzen helped you save the orphanage from Danzo doesn't mean you should trust him. He can be quite cunning and heartless when he wants to be."

"Kensei, how can you say that about him?"

"Because I've seen who he really is and the hypocrisy of people like him. Don't forget. I was Anbu for a long time. I've seen the ugly side of this village… Trust me on this Aiko. Blind loyalty will get you and the people around you killed."

Daichi was about to use Mana Puppetry on her to make her comply but Aiko spoke before he could. She had a serious expression on her face.

"I'll help you. But we need to move fast. Let's go to my office."

Once Aiko made sure Reo was asleep in bed, she led Daichi to her office.

"There are several people who have access to the records kept. I happen to be one of them." Aiko said as she took a key from a shelf. "If we're going to save that girl then not only do we have to erase her existing documents, we have to create new ones."

"So you're creating a new identity for her.!"

"Yes."

Aiko started filling the new document. She looked at Daichi and spoke. "I will mark her as an orphan."

Daichi nodded.

"Do you know her birth date?" She asked.

"January 29th… What are you going to name her?" Daichi was sad that the girl would grow up under a different name than the one given by her parents.

"Do you have something in mind?" Aiko asked the boy.

"Keep the first name. Reo. Ren and Kimiko chose that for her. I don't want her to lose anymore tonight than she already has." Daichi was downcast as he said the words. He was still processing what happened to them.

Aiko nodded and went back to completing the document. Daichi looked at the time remaining to complete the quest. 'Less than 30 minutes… Please hurry…'

A couple minutes later the stamped and completed records and documents of an orphan Reo Miena were in Daichi's hands. Aiko gave Daichi a key and gave him the instructions to complete the next step.

"Since she's just a few months old she'll only have a birth certificate and a couple other documents. They will be kept in the low priority records room so there will only be a chunin guarding the door at this time. I'm sure with that cloak of yours you can get past him. Each clan has a specific shelf assigned to them to keep records of their members. Go to the section where they keep the Uchiha files. Find her parents files and just remove her documents."

Daichi nodded and knew what he had to do next. "Then I place these documents with the ones assigned to this orphanage right?"

"Yeah."

Daichi nodded as he memorized the plan. "Thank you for this." He thanked her sincerely.

Aiko merely nodded. "Go. Before it's too late."

Daichi tucked the files safely in his arms and left. Under the invisibility of his cloak he ran through the roofs of the village. Daichi headed in the direction Aiko said. Within 15 minutes he reached his destination. He saw only one person guarding the door just like the matron said. Daichi got near him and didn't bother wasting his time using his 'observe' skill on him.

Daichi could smell the strong scent of smoke and tobacco coming from the man. He also saw a portion of a pack of smoke sticking out of the man's pockets. Daichi had an idea. He used the Mana puppetry on him.

'It's a good night for a smoke. I should have another one and enjoy the full moon. No one will come here anyway.'

[Target has accepted the suggestion.]

'That was fast. Guess he's a heavy smoker. Makes things easier for me.' Daichi thought as he looked at the chunin who left the post. The moment he turned a corner and was out of sight Daichi took out the key to the room and quietly opened the door and slipped inside. He slowly closed the door behind him and began his search.

It was a big room with dozens of shelves.

'This is like looking for a needle in several haystacks. Thankfully these haystacks come labeled and numbered.'

He followed Aiko's instructions and had an idea as to where the Uchiha clan's files would be kept. It took a minute but he found the Uchiha section of the records.

'Ok. One problem solved. Now to find Ren's family file… A, B, C…. R. Now to find Ren..' Daichi went through the alphabets and soon found the folder he was looking for.

'Ren Uchiha…'

Daichi took out the folder and opened it.

'This folder only contains the basic documents on Ren and Kimiko. Makes sense. Their other more important information like mission records and other details would be kept in a more secure location. And Reo… Since she's only born just a few months ago she would only have these couple of documents.'

Daichi took Reo's papers from the folder and stored them in his inventory. He then looked over the information on Ren and Kimiko's documents to see if it mentions them having a child.

'Ok. There is nothing on these documents that indicates them having a child… Good. Now as far as the village is concerned Reo Uchiha doesn't exist.'

Daichi placed Ren's folder back in its place and closed the shelf. He then started to look for the cabinet assigned to Aiko's orphanage. After a short search he found it. Daichi looked at the time remaining on the quest.

'Less than 4 minutes left.'

Daichi quickly placed Reo Miena's files in the correct spot and closed the cabinet.

'Time to get the hell out of here.'

Daichi went near the door and used Mana scout. 'The good thing about the Mana scout skill is that no one can detect me when I use it. But if I use 'chakra sense' a sensor could pick up my chakra. But I'm not sure that applies while I'm using the cloak. Either way, I'm not gonna risk it.'

The mana scout skill indicated that the guard hadn't returned yet. Seeing that the area was empty, Daichi quietly and cautiously opened the door. He got outside and quickly and carefully closed the door behind him. He let out a sigh of relief and at that moment a notification popped up

'About time.' Daichi looked at the quest box.

Quest 'Rescue Reo Uchiha' Completed.

Rewards:

12000 Exp.

Reputation increases with Ren Uchiha and Kimiko Uchiha. - Reward Invalid.

'I saved her… Ren, Kimiko… Rest easy. Reo's safe. And I'll make sure she stays safe till she's strong enough to defend herself.'

Daichi then slowly walked and reached the building's exterior. At that moment, he saw two Anbu members and a nervous guard headed in the direction of the records room.

'So they found out… This is why the quest had a time limit. If I had gotten here even a few minutes later then they would have found out about her and then what I did.'

Cold sweat ran down Daichi's face as he imagined the consequences of the quest failure. Without wasting any more time lingering there, Daichi left and headed back to the orphanage. As he ran a few meters a new notification box and a quest appeared, taking him by surprise.

Daichi opened the new quest box first.

Accept Y/N

The contents shocked and then made Daichi happy. 'Wow… I can't believe it… there's no way I'm rejecting this quest.'

He accepted the quest immediately. Daichi's fists clenched and his teeth grinded in anger as he thought about what happened to his friends. 'Just you wait, Obito. I'll be coming for you one day. And unlike Naruto, mercy or the talk no jutsu would be the last things you will see from me.'

Daichi then looked at the next blue box that was present. He was shocked as he read the contents.

[You have chosen to save the life of someone you care about instead of chasing after power.]

[You have received a hidden reward]

The hidden reward was a new skill. Daichi read the details of the new skill and by the time he was done his eyes were wide open.

'Holy shit… A skill like this… It's a one time use skill but the value of this can't be understated.'

Daichi couldn't stop the small smile from spreading on his face.
