Everyone's reactions following Aahan's victory were awkward, to say the least. Nobody had expected Isha's defeat, let alone at the hands of a blood-void. Yet Aahan made the impossible, possible. But not everyone thought of it like that.
People questioned if Aahan was Blood-void, then how did he possess skills such as Stealth? But more than that, they were worried that another Vivaan had risen to overshadow their importance.
Some even questioned Aahan's 'ethics' because he used a 'cheap' trick to win the duel and didn't do it the honourable way. Regardless of the situation, there was no denying that Aahan had won and secured his place as one of the Ashram's best.
"Alright, kid, go and get yourself checked for injuries," the Instructor ordered Aahan, who promptly did so.
However, as he left the stage, he saw Dheera and Maya waiting there. From the looks the crowd was giving him, the two of them were the only ones who seemed happy with his victory.
