Master Willix's expression remained carefully composed. She rarely revealed any strong emotions and she never exposed her true thoughts.
This made it difficult for Ves to judge what she was thinking.
Ves knew that he had exposed a portion of the capabilities that he didn't want to show to her. There was no way that she had managed to miss the changes in Ves when he actively channeled one of his design spirits.
Though he was unsure how much spiritual sensitivity a Master Mech Designer typically possessed, he did not think it was weak. People like Master Willix had all moved away from the spiritually deficient origins and only needed to take one final step to reach the end point of their progression track!
This meant that the chances were great that Master Willix detected that Ves had solicited a distinctly alien presence. It would not take much thought to realize that Ves had actually made contact with a luminar entity.
