Vampire Lord's Demonic Wives

Zoravec took a sigh of relief upon seeing that Blake was fine and unscathed. For a moment he grew anxious when he stumbled and his reflection was formed. Now that particular accident had helped him a lot in crafting a theory which was accurate. Clara reciprocated the gesture and shouted at Blake as she jumped in her spot in joy.

"Don't worry, Blake. We got your back, okay."

Her words made Zoravec shake his head with a soft chuckle, he was amazed the way she switched her nature so fast. In task one Clara seemed an arrogant and standoffish type person, but at that moment she was completely different. Clara appeared a harmless bubbly type girl which indicated her professional attitude from the task one.

Since the current task had already brought the three of them closer and distributed the attention and focus among all. It made Blake and Clara relieved so as Zorvaec, he was aware about not having the physical combat skills but teaming up with them covered up for that.

Blake had physical fighting tactics, while Clara seemed to be skilled in the weaponry section. Zoravec had the benefit of his exceptional senses which were good compared to the others. Moreover, staying with Devi had taught him a lot more things, Zoravec had learned how to see through people's words and outward behaviours.

He was sure that the two siblings were going to stay quiet and would never help them. Instead they will pass the test without investing any effort which made Zoravec think about the unfair system. The three of them would definitely pass through the room after so much trouble while the siblings will dawdle through it.

However, somewhere deep down he wanted them to be disqualified because of no efforts in task two. Zoravec had no clue how did they even pass the first round with that current attitude they had been putting on the front. But at that time what concerned him the most was proceeding ahead with his assumed theory.

After all, whatever he had drafted was an assumption but it was worth giving it a shot since they had no other option. Zoravec called out to Blake to tell him his theory so he could proceed with the instructions. It was obvious that they all could not simply pass through in between the mirror without forming their reflections.

"Blake, the mirror portals get activated when a living body passes in front of them and its reflection is created. The person has to be a living being, you can see the corpse's half body laying and casting a reflection. But nothing is targeting it because it has no motion or warmth."

Upon hearing Zoravec's words Blake immediately looked in the mirror to confirm the theory. He was surprised and amazed at the same time by Zoravec's keen thinking and quick observation. It made him admire Zoravec even more as Blake paid heed to his words. Clara was dumbfounded upon their conversation but stood there silently.

"We can't pass through the mirrors without casting a reflection. Because they get activated either by sensing motion or thermal radiation from our bodies. We have to block the mirror from casting our reflection, any one of them would be fine. But we have to cover all the mirrors in either the right or left lane."

Zoravec was precise in his assumption and it seemed reasonable to Blake. He appeared invested in hearing further because the theory was surprising to him. However, Zoravec narrated to him further what he had crafted from all that little accident of his. Blake shifted his gaze towards Zoravec as he listened to the further plan.

"All mirrors get activated if the reflection is casted on the both opposite ones. Did you notice the ropes emerged from the first two mirrors which were opposite to each other? Same thing happened with that kid, two opposite mirrors get activated at same time. And whatever comes from it has a mind of its own, that is why dodging would not work."

Zoravec explained everything he had understood from all those scenes. Whereas Clara looked around the room to analyse what he speculated. She could not deny that the theory till now was accurate, as she played the whole scenes in her head to recall. Zoravec took a pause while Blake carefully settled himself between the safe space to avoid any indirect reflection.

He was aware now what was happening and what the task was about. It mildly scared him that anything could happen if he committed even a slight blunder. He needed some solution to either move forward or to come back at spot zero. After all, staying in the safe space was not safe for a long time.

"So, what should we do? Since you have understood the core theme of the task, I am sure you must have thought of some solution too."

Blake began to sweat a little bit upon the realisation of the new situation. Because now he knew how critical things were and it made him cautious about his every step ahead.

He did not want to decide anything on his own without consulting Zoravec. Blake was assured that he could trust him more than he assumed, if not him then he could totally trust Zoravec's thirst for completing the task. Blake yelled at him in order to make Zoravec hear him properly as his voice slightly stammered and reeked fear.

"Please, tell me before something else splits me into two."

Zoravec could potentially sense fright in his voice which was obvious from what had just happened with him. Zoravec looked at Clara to see what she was thinking, before he started again with his solution. Clara and Blake listened carefully in case they needed to team up once again.

Zoravec knew he should not trust Blake blindly just because they did one task together. It would have been stupid of him to give him a solution which could possibly be only beneficial for him. Thus, Zoravec took a few moments to think about it. While Clara became impatient with the whole thing, she wanted to get done with all that matter once for all.

"Tell me how to block the reflections? Think, think of something."

Blake was still waiting for his reply as he waited while being anxious even more. Zoravec had to ensure that he would propose something which would be beneficial for all of them. His brain worked on horsepower speed as he looked around the room to analyse the surroundings.

It was obvious he had to pull off something from the sources and stuff available. Which meant Zoravec could not use his powers to stay safe since there was no such rule. But there was also no clear indication they could use any kind of magic, though the three of them had already taken the risk of using weapons.

However, that act could have been easily explained as a reflexive action taken to defend themselves. But using magic was still a risky matter which made Zoravec think harder about how they could conceal the reflection for a while. It was the moment his gaze fell over the cadaver who was still oozing blood.
