The young deity killed the chosen champion, but because he was severely injured, he couldn't destroy the contract before he died. Because of this, the contract still remains at the site of their duel, so the area is significantly smaller for Malin. He instructed Sostak No.3 to conduct a high-altitude reconnaissance. If they find that it has been extensively damaged, it must be in that area.
As for why Malin could be certain... the young man died with faith. His corpse must still be at the scene. Therefore, after Malin witnessed the last thread of the young man's spirit ignite and turn into ashes, losing all spirituality, his corpse, imbued with the power of faith, could potentially transform into a god's spawn.
Malin must handle all this as soon as possible.
