Betrayal

Ivan could see all the wounds Clovis had on his body. It was clear that the battle was intense, but Clovis actually managed to defeat those beasts. He simply couldn't believe it. 

On the other hand, Elina was observing Clovis coldly, wondering if the Silver Star team had helped them or not. If they managed to do it alone, she had to report this to the president, informing him that Clovis and his group were much stronger than they originally expected. And no small trick would be enough to eliminate them.

Like how they saw his condition, Clovis also observed their state. They weren't sweating, their clothes weren't wrinkled from all the movements, and they didn't have any blood on their clothes or bodies. 

It was pretty clear that they didn't participate in the battle.
