Senior Faputa gazed over the dead body of Senior Gemu with wide eyes. 

"…Not a single scratch, but he's dead."

She could hardly believe it, however, the defensive expert seemed to have been killed very smoothly in a manner that bypassed his defenses and killed him in an instant.

'Poison…?' She narrowed her eyes. 'No…'

There were no signs of poison used on him. Every Martial Artist who delved into the Underworld became more familiar with unorthodox Martial Art, especially fields like poison that were used even outside of Martial Art.

From what she could tell, he hadn't been poisoned.

He had just inexplicably… died.

That alone wasn't the only oddity to be spotted.

'Where is his exterior robe?' She frowned. 

It didn't make sense that that alone went missing. Furthermore, she found it quite likely that it alone had been torn off while other articles had been intact.
