Zoravec was utterly confused as to how Clara could think that she could pass the last task all alone by herself? Was it possible that she had some kind of powers and was successful hiding them? After all, just relying on weapons would not have favoured her in the long run. There must have been something she was hiding in her sleeves for the dire need.
The whole theory concluded a few things, Zoravec could not trust her any bit. Clara would definitely take revenge for that slip since she had never expected something like that. Thirdly Zoravec had to ensure that she would not get placed with him in one team in the future. It was obvious now that the three of them had passed the whole damned test and might be labelled as the team.
However, Zoravec was aware that he could blindly trust Blake even though the guy was from some influential family since Zoravec had heard about his family. The guy was not a witty one or let's say someone who had the skill to judge people in a better way. That made Blake a trustworthy partner to team up with since he could easily get used and played upon.
Although Zoravec had no intentions of doing that but it was still lingering at the back of his head that he had to protect Blake. If Zoravec intended to use his skills in the near future for himself then he had to ensure that Blake would trust him blindly too. The emotion should have been reciprocated, and that was why he wished to inform Blake about Clara as soon as they would be done with all the current mess.
Jason's skull was shattered and all of his insides included blood scattered around and a few droplets fell over their faces too. Blake and Zoravec were equally disgusted as they both flinched, on the other hand Clara was not bothered by it any bit. She stood there with a blank face and did not even wipe her blood droplets which fell on her cheeks. Zoravec was unable to stop his stomach from churning up but seeing that sight.
It reminded him about the time when he had to see Lyra's body laying dead and making in front of his eyes. Zoravec began to recall all that she in fact fact subconscious brain began to play tricks on him and he started to picture all of those scenes immediately in his head. His breathing grew shallow and hands went cold, as Zoravec blankly stared at Jason's deafbkdy which had no head.
It made Zoravec horrified that blood was oozing from his body actually from his neck. Zoravec recalled how he had the dried blood over his lips after killing Lyra and it made his stomach unable to beat that sight. He immediately ebbed and turned around with his shaky legs. Blake noticed that he was not feeling well, however his own situation was not any better than Zoravec.
Blake came forward and placed his hand over Zoravec's shoulder and rubbed his back as he wiped off the droplets from Zoravec's face. Blake understood that Zoravec was feeling disturbed by the smell and sight of blood which made him console Zoravec. Unbeknownst to him that Zoravec was facing two different kinds of problems at that time. First, he could not stand the smell of blood due to his own vampiric powers.
His eyes had already started to glow that was why he immediately closed his eyes to prevent his identity from being exposed. However, the lingering fear also remained there that what if the members of the board recognized his scent. It was obvious for one vampire to smell another vampire and the distance between Zoravec and them was not even that much.
Zoravec could could fathom to die like Jason and that would be his worst nightmare. He had no clue how to prevent that from happening since he was aware of his powers. But then he recalled what Devi said, that Zoravec was not a ordinary vampire. His blood was something else, he could neither be classified in the vampires nor as a dhampir.
Devi, the demoness of lust had already experienced what Zoravec's blood could do. It was practically a power source for all the beings, since Devi had also experienced the potential changes in herself from the time Zoravec bit her and made the demoness his servant. However, Zoravec was well aware of the recognition part and it made him worried because he did not want to die or be disqualified that he entered the test under wrong information.
That was why he tried his best not to let his fangs get elongated from the gush of blood he had been feeling within his body. Zoravec was doing his level best but his canines started to form into fangs, luckily it was the moment when one of the board members noticed them. The members had already moved towards Jason's body to devour devour blood which they converted into a black smoke and absorbed it.
It gave Zoravec and Blake some personalised space at the other corner of the room. However, Jessica's was still stunned by the whole thing, no doubt it was a traumatic scene for her to witness the death of her own biological brother. It did not batter how their relationship was at that time, she felt disappointed and disheartened upon the whole situation.
"Hey you two! What are you two bickering about? Do you dare call yourself soldiers when you can't even stand the smell of blood and sight of a corpse? Pathetic!"
One of the board members scolded both of them by challenging their will power. It was the moment Zoravec snapped open his eyes and was able to calm himself due to to interruption which diverted his attention from the smell of blood.
He looked at Blake from the corner of his eyes and saw he was staring back at at board member. It gave enough time to Zoravec to make his eye color and teeth return to normal.
