Zoravec did not move or flinched any bit upon hearing those words. He knew what William was doing, and that was why he could not afford to make his expressions surfaced over his face. However, Hecate was taken aback by William's claim, acknowledging that it was true and she could not deny it.
None of them spoke anything, neither accepted nor denied the fact. The irresponsive kind of response amused William as he expected something similar from them. He was sure that no one of them would tell him the truth or anything related to that call.
"The cops did not return to the headquarters after visiting your place."
He was persistent on extorting the truth from them, but upon none of them was willing to tell him the truth William had no other choice but to use other techniques. He wanted to know that the cops had arrived at his house and then they all went missing.
Only then everything which was provided as an information would make sense. Otherwise it would just be a blind goose chance again. William was told that all of them had gone missing from that day after that last call which arrived from Zoravec's place. However, it was not clear whether they disappeared midway or after coming to his house.
If the second option was true then the presence of some outsider entity would be the only reasonable explanation. After all, if considering Zoravec as an ordinary boy then he could not kill so many men single handedly which would have been absurd with his human status. It could have been possible if he was a dhampir or a vampire. But being a human it was simply not possible.
William playfully swirled his finger over the globe as he shifted his gaze between Zoravec and the item frequently. He made sure that the atmosphere of the lounge would get tensed so he could potentially sense their racing heartbeats and the breathing patterns. It was the utmost and easy indicator which would tell him whether they were lying or telling the truth.
It was obvious that only either a class A or B type of vampire would be able to sense those things. Because the prowess of the dhampirs was limited and short termed which differentiated them from the noble vampires. And if that was the case then the ones ruling the human realm known as the pentagon were extremely powerful beings.
"I wonder where did they all go? Or perhaps somebody disappeared them?"
He was sure that those words would definitely provoke either of them into telling the truth. But none of them gave any response which could indicate anything. Unbeknownst to William, there was no way he was unable to sense anyone's irregular heartbeat or breathing due to Zoravec's blood pact.
It linked both of the ladies to him and the emotions which Zoravec displayed at that moment where also transferred to them. However, Devi was completely invisible and non- sense-able to William. But the emotions of Hecate were under control and it made William mildly confused. Since such an unusually occurring thing had happened for the first time with him.
"Why are you telling this to us? If you suspect us for the particular cause then why not arrest us?"
Zoravec was sure that William would never arrest him for something like that. If he wanted to then he would have never come to their place to begin with. He deliberately made that remark to ensure William that he was not a fool to come into his words. It was obvious that William was telling them all that stuff to provoke the mother- son duo into some reaction.
William chuckled softly knowing that what he suspected about Zoravec was already true. He was a witty guy who was hard to handle by twisting words and cheap tactics. Thus, he came straight to the point with his purpose of coming there. Because he had potentially conveyed his message in underlying words that he had handled the cops' matter now.
"Ah, leave that matter. I came here to offer you the deal of joining the army."
He came straight to the matter and bluntly told Zoravec why he came there. It was obvious that he wanted to keep Zoravec under his eyes to test his powers. And what could be the best place to do that except the army which would also help him in making Zoravec powerful.
It was still unclear whether William was helping him or was hunting him. It made him curious as to why William would offer him something like that. Even though Zoravec wanted to do that all by himself and had already planned to join the army. But he had never expected something like that to happen.
"And why would you offer me something like that for no reason? What is your gain in all this?"
Zoravec made his point making sure that William would definitely hear him out calmly. After all he was a class A vampire and why would he offer something like that to him for no gain or benefit. There must be something which made him take that decision.
"Witty as expected. You serve the nation as an army person and the army will help you in being strongest."
William spoke with a diplomatic reply as he ensured that he will present a fair deal to Zoravec. However, the boy was also aware the things could not be that easy and simple as they seemed.
Whereas, Hecate eyes welled up hearing those words, because she did not expect that somebody will show up at her door offering Zoravec the invitation of joining army. She was already against it and now after William's arrival Zoravec might actually depart for army sooner than expected.
Whereas, Zoravec was not sure why would William do something like that. And it was clear that whatever he said was not actually the whole damned truth. Why would he come personally to offer the joining when it was obvious he had no powers in the world's eyes and was not a dhampir either.
