Tomer read the reply as she bit on her fingernails.

[Fernin Jesus changed his name to Agus Benjamin and smuggled himself onto Korea in 2020.

For an unknown reason, he entered a retirement center rather than starting a new life, and he died in 2024 at the age of 53. He was cremated with standard procedures, and his remains are inside a memorial.

The following is the name of the retirement center he stayed in...]

Immediately, Tomer's face stiffened.

Dead at the age of 53.

Although she could see the words written on her smartwatch, her brain couldn't accept the information.

"...Bullshit."

Tomer strongly bit down on her fingernails, causing flesh to split and blood to ooze out.

"Dead? What right does he have to die?"

Her heart felt like it was burning, as though a heavy fireball had been thrown inside it.

The trash who killed her mother and abandoned her was dead. When she finally accepted this reality, she shot up. Her eyes were filled with tears of resentment.

She glared at the information provided by Truth Agency, then kicked off the ground.

The retirement center he stayed in wasn't far away.

Tomer ran as quickly as she could. The magic power inside her formed a special sequence, amplifying her physical abilities. It was the magic spell – Haste.

With this spell, she only needed 15 minutes to reach the retirement center.

[Sunshine Haven]

Standing in front of this sign, Tomer took in a deep breath. She wiped away the tears in her eyes, then slowly turned the doorknob.

Kiiik—

An unpleasant sound rang out as the wooden door slowly opened.

First, a faint smell of medicine tickled her nose. It wasn't as bad as a hospital, but the smell of medicine was definitely present.

Tomer slowly walked up to the counter, where she spotted a nurse who seemed to be in her 30s.

The nurse also spotted her and asked.

"Do you need something?"

"Um... I'm here to find a patient. He's name is Agus Benjamin..."

"Who?"

The nurse tilted her head as though she had never heard of his name before.

"Agus Benjamin. He's a Latino like me and also old."

"Ah~ the Latino man."

As expected, a Latino man seemed to be rare as the nurse quickly recalled.

"I remember him now. He was an extremely shy and quiet person... but..."

The nurse's face turned a bit dark.

"I believe he passed away already. About 2 years ago."

Tomer immediately felt her heart drop and her throat clog up.

Was he really dead? On his own, so peacefully, in such a calm place?

Her hands trembled, and a fiery rage surged up from the depths of her heart.

But no, it was still too early to come to a conclusion.

Until she saw a definitive proof, she refused to believe it.
