Three days later, within the Inner Circle, in the Island Affairs Department.
In the office of bounty agent Jenela, Noland Lee was settling accounts with Jenela.
"For the first wanted criminal, Liturte, you submitted his relatively intact corpse. The Island Affairs Department examined the corpse and confirmed that there was no trace of a 'Soul Retreat Crystal' being triggered. Liturte himself did not have the ability to separate his soul from his body using a spell. Therefore, it is confirmed that Liturte has indeed died. I will now pay you 20% of the total bounty, which is the reward you're entitled to. The remaining 80% will be returned to the person who initiated the bounty by the Wizard Enforcement Department."
Jenela recounted the autopsy results while referring to the autopsy report, and pushed 26,000 gold coins toward Noland Lee.
