Zoravec figured out how to conceal the reflections. However, according to his calculations they had only a few brief minutes to pass through the array of the mirrors. He shouted at Blake while raising his hand as Zoravec instructed him. Whereas Clara's eyes followed his direction and stared at the cadaver.
"Blake, pick up any part of the corpse and smear the blood on the mirror. Start from the first one and then move ahead, if one lane is blocked the other would not get activated. Make sure any of your body parts would not appear in front of the mirror. You have to do it carefully, Blake."
He instructed him and whatever Zoravec said was based solely on his assumed hypothesis. Zoravec was aware that even after Blake managed to conceal the reflection, they had little time to run through the first mirror. Because the blood was also liquid and after being smeared on the mirror it would definitely wear down.
"When you will smear it on the mirror start from above, just make it a big smudge so our reflections will be concealed. Leave the top of the mirror because none of us is that tall. We have to use the blood carefully so we won't fall short of it. There are too many mirrors and we have to cover all of them."
Zoravec looked at the cadaver and then gestured to Blake with his eyes to start. Blake on the other hand stretched his hand as he crouched on the floor within that safe space. Zoravec shifted his gaze towards Clara as he grabbed his hand out of nowhere. He alerted her by poking his elbow to snag her attention.
"Be prepared, we have to protect him if anything happens. Keep your weapons ready, I will become your senses to help you attack immediately."
Clara nodded at him knowing that she could trust Zoravec's observance and the skills involving his senses. She shifted her eyes towards Blake and slipped her hands inside the cuffs of her shirt.
The girl was not short of weapons and was well aware that she had to save Blake all by herself. Because Zoravec hadn't displayed any kind of skills but no doubt his senses were exceptionally sharp. He was still an enigma to her but at that moment the safety of Blake was priority.
Blake nodded at them and crouched down, he waited for a few moments trying to figure out how to pull the dead body. The cadaver was right in between the mirrors which made the situation even more crucial. One wrong move and anything could possibly come from the mirrors and eat Blake alive.
He was sure that he had to avoid casting any reflection while pulling the cadaver. Blake reached for the cut arm and pulled it by grabbing the pinkie finger. The blood in his arm was not enough, that was why he pulled the torso by reaching for the shirt of the dead kid. Zoravec could clearly see the fright over his face as Blake gasped and paused his movements.
"Good job, Blake. Now squeeze out the blood and smear it over the first mirror without casting any reflection."
Zoravec repeated his words 'first mirror' multiple times to manipulate Blake without him acknowledging the slow process of it. Zoravec was playing clever and was sure his tactics will never go in vain the way he was putting up the things together.
After all, if the first mirror reflection was not concealed then none of them could pass. That was why Zoravec tried his best to ensure the slow manipulation to subconsciously force Blake into concealing the first mirror too. He was sure that trusting Blake was not wise and Zoravec played clever from the beginning.
Blake picked up the arm of the cadaver and squeezed it to ensure that enough blood would ooze from it. He tilted his body a bit to lean forward to see the mirror but did not appear in front of the mirror properly. Blake had to ensure to complete the task properly and without getting caught.
Zoravec and Clara carefully watched him closely in case something happened. They both witnessed Blake turning the arm upside down and smearing the blood in the middle of the mirror. He blocked the possibility of reflection of his arm so he did not have to trouble his body.
Blake started from the middle and then crouched down to smear blood in the lower region of the mirror. As Zoravec instructed him he was working the same way, Blake had already covered the first mirror carefully. Zoravec clearly looked at the siblings keenly and figured out that they were indeed suspicious.
Zoravec ignored them for a while but he could not get his mind off them for some reason. But now that the mirror was concealed, he shifted his attention towards Clara and grabbed her hand. The girl was taken aback by his sudden advancements and stared at his face blankly.
"Come, we have to hurry up before the blood smears off."
He pulled Clara and dashed towards the mirrors, Zoravec was certain that nothing would come out of the mirrors. He stepped in between the mirrors, one of them was smeared with blood while their reflection was casted on the other one.
Zoravec waited for a moment to see if anything happened or not, when no movement occurred he was certain about proceeding. Clara became impressed by his tactics and observant skills, low key she began to swoon over him. However, the two of them approached Blake and patted his shoulder to praise him.
Whereas the two siblings casually dawdled towards them and pretended as if everything was fine. Zoravec became irritated with their attitude towards them and the tasks. Blake headed towards the next mirror while Zoravec picked up the other arm of the cadaver. Clara followed his actions and picked up the leg of the dead kid to aid them.
