"Did you determine the cause?" Osbert inquired, standing next to a dissected corpse.
"We're trying, but prolonged weakness or pushing the body to its absolute limits are the only reasons we can deduce for the body's current state," replied the man in a white lab coat.
He was the head of the Medical Department of the World Association and was investigating clues related to Zephyr.
"We've confirmed the identity. It's Erwin Gerwell, who was expelled from World Academy," the man added.
Osbert's expression remained stoic. To an observer, his indifference to Erwin's corpse would suggest no prior acquaintance with the deceased.
"Keep me updated," Osbert directed, fixing his gaze on the man.
"Of course!" came the immediate response.
Osbert left shortly after, and the man could finally take a deep breath and turn his attention to the report he was crafting.
"He was an S Rank hunter, but..." the man muttered.
