Zoravec could feel her desperation about the whole system reward thing. However, he was still unsure about his own, and did not give permission to the system yet. He wanted to discuss it with some higher authority to ensure the safety of all the matter. Nonetheless, he gave a smile and thanked Clara for her information and effort to explain to him.
"Err, guys?"
On the other hand, Blake snagged their attention by his terrified voice which came out of nowhere. He was looking around the whole room they were inside and his worry grew further. He was unsure about the changings which were happening. Zoravec and Clara looked at him only to see Blake pointing in some direction.
"Guys, the door through which we came inside is gone. It just…disappeared."
The three of them were dumbfounded upon seeing the new situation and it did not make any sense. If there was no door then how the fuck were they supposed to leave the fucking room!? Something was not right.
"Does this mean….?"
Clara's words trailed off as she looked at Zoravec and shifted her gaze towards Blake. It was obvious now that they had missed something during their talk about the systemic reward. And it was the crucial point to get out of there which they were totally ignored or neglected.
"Yes, task three has started. But what is it?"
Zoravec spoke with utter worry since he also had no clue what the third task could be. And his words made Clara and Blake frightful since they both were dependent on him for the analysis. If Zoravec was unsure about the whole damned matter then the possibility of their damnation was higher.
Nonetheless, Zoravec closed his eyes and tried to hear anything around him which could possibly be a threat. But upon hearing nothing he was relieved, it was still certain that the task had commenced. However, the nature of it was still unknown and unanswered. Blake and Clara were looking up to him for any kind of instruction.
Zoravec could see their gazes darted on him which made him relieved and assured that they would not betray him. Similarly he was aware now that they both were dependent on him and it would be a dick of him if he deceived them. Now the three of them were officially a team and had to figure out task three as they managed to pass the other two.
"I am not sure what type of task it is. But on the safer side we should destroy all the mirrors. It would be stupid of us to leave them up despite knowing they are portals for anything to emerge and attack us."
He immediately came down from the stage and gestured to both of them to accompany him. Blake and Clara nodded and strode towards him, as the three of them approached the beginning of the mirrored array. Now the question was, how to destroy the mirrors?
"You are right. But how do we do it?"
Clara spoke with curiosity as she nodded in agreement as she placed her both hands over her navel. Blake was running the horses of his brains to find a way to do the deed. After all, they both were supposed to help Zoravec this time to display their importance.
The whole room was still the same with mirrors on both of the sides. The ceiling and flame stage was also unchanged, except that the door had disappeared. The three of them totally ignored the presence of the siblings acknowledging they were not going to help them. However, Zoravec did not want to waste his time in fighting them verbally to provoke them for aiding.
"Since we have already concealed the reflections, I am sure we can just shatter all the mirrors without any worry."
Blake was the one to propose the idea and it did make sense to both of them. Zoravec smiled and placed his hand over Blake's shoulder and praised him. Clara on the other hand felt a faint blush over her cheeks as she averted her gaze from Zoravec's face.
"You just stole words from my mouth. Well, then let's get to work."
Zoravec inhaled sharply as he looked at the untouched array of the mirrors. Whereas Blake went towards the first concealed one, the blood on the mirrors was already wiping off. They had to hurry up and destroy all the mirrors before the blood could completely wear off.
The mirrors were placed just a few inches ahead of the wall with a few feet distance between each of them. It was the moment Zoravec wondered that the space between all the mirrors seemed equal as if somebody had measured it. He realised that the way they all used the safe space was accurate and the authorities expected it.
Zoravec did not intend to use the potential of his powers to raise any suspicion. Thus he kept his strength in check and pulled the mirror downwards while he stood in the safe space. Even though there was no chance that anything could come out of them with the other side concealed. But they still had to remain cautious, after all who would not value their life.
They broke all the mirrors and now the shattered glass was spread all over the floor. Zoravec was on the other side of the room with Blake, while Clara stood opposite to them. Right behind her was the suspended stage and the siblings who were shamelessly standing there. Zoravec and Blake were occupied in making the shattered mirrors harmless.
It was the moment Clara felt something behind her and immediately turned reflexively. To her surprise one of those siblings, the girl, was standing behind her. Clara had no clue what she was doing sneakily behind her like that. Blake and Zoravec were equally taken aback by the sudden change.
They carefully sprinted towards Clara while dodging the shattered glass. Whereas Clara stared in her eyes only to see them turning crimson as her canines grew longer. They were right the task three had already begun, but it did not involve the mirrors. The dhampir siblings were the third test!
