Rui almost felt his heart palpitating as he tried calming himself down. He was glad that he was paranoid enough to memorize the position of every single corpse, otherwise, he would have never noticed that one of them was missing.

('Wait, calm down,') He narrowed his eyes. ('The roots did damage this floor heavily, maybe she got buried deep under rubble,')

He immediately focused his senses deep underground, sweeping across the bedrock of the entire floor, praying that he found her.

('Shit…') He realized that she was nowhere to be found.

He had simply inputted the entirety of his spatial vision into his Mind Palace when he swept his senses across the corpses, thus he had also inadvertently memorized their physical traits and their appearances.

He could clearly tell that one corpse was missing.

('But how?') He narrowed his eyes. ('How could a corpse just disappear?')

The first possibility that came to mind was that she was faking her death and possessed some strange obscure technique that killed any and all physiological indication of life. That would mean that even if Rui spent a lot of time scanning her body, he might not have noticed that she was alive.
