Mratni (Wait... my body... I'm... dying... I can't take more...)
Todor (50% blood loss is super deadly... if he hits that... I should already claim my win)
Oli (Both of them are below 3 liters now... I didn't know humans can "live" with such a blood loss)
Device: Mratni's turn to guess.
Mratni (I have to... stick to what I was... Doing so far...)
Todor (Come on... Do something! I can barely think!)
Mratni: ... My guess..... is ... 35... ml...
Round 14-1 Results:
Todor sacrificed: 5 ml
Mratni guessed: 35 ml
Mratni loses: (5 - 35) * 2 = 60 ml
Todor: 2,976 liters (55.11%) of blood left - BPM : 179
Mratni: 2,505 liters (48.07%) of blood left - BPM : 127
Device: Mratni's turn to sacrifice.
Oli (He's still alive!? He's still standing! But he is completely still!)
Mratni: Why... Why?
Mratni at this point rather than shaking, he's twitching.
Todor: Have you reached your limit?
Mratni: I... Don't wanna do this anymore... I don't care... Stop this... Suffering.
Then he suddenly gets together with all his power he is left in his body. He lifts up his hand and... Hits himself in the face!
Mratni: AAggh!
Todor (He wants to... kill himself?)
Oli (This is... this is CRAZY!)
Mratni: I have... had enough... Todor... You should... Win...
Todor: Yeah...I told you... That I will win!
Mratni keeps hitting himself, his eyes closed yet again. Is it because he is too weak to open them this time? The next moment, he hits himself one more time before... He falls down to his back.
Device: Mratni's status changed - From Alive: Conscious, to Alive: Unconscious. Still alive, the game can continue.
A few seconds later
Mratni - BPM : 53
Device: Todor's turn to guess
Todor: ... 5 ml.
Round 14-2 Results:
Mratni sacrificed: 100 ml
Todor guessed: 5 ml
Todor loses: (5 - 100) * 2 = 190 ml
Todor: WHAA-!
Oli (WHEN DID HE?! WHEN HE WAS UNCONSCIOUS?)
Referee No.1: Extracting 190 milliliters from Todor
Todor: 2,786 liters (51.59%) of blood left - BPM : 186
Mratni: 2,405 liters (46.15%) of blood left - BPM : 51
Todor barely stands the extraction, drops down to all fours.
Device: Todor's turn to sacrifice.
Todor: How... I... Don't... have... strength...
...
Todor waits until the time is near to the 50 seconds limit before he would sacrifice anything.
Todor (I have to sacrifice, but I can't do a lot... His heart on the other hand is... getting weaker... beating slower and slower by the second... Even just a little minus and he is dead... He will lose twice as much as I do... 15 ml)
Device: Mratni's time to guess.
Todor slowly, but stands up.
Oli (Did he really just...? This Todor... Really is a monster)
... few seconds left
Todor: This is the end... Mratni... I... Won...
Todor - BPM : 189
Mratni - BPM : 49
Referee No.1: The round has ended. Let's see the results!
Round 15-1 Results:
Todor sacrificed: 15 ml
Mratni guessed: 0 ml
Mratni loses: (15 - 0) * 2 = 30 ml
Todor: 2,771 liters (51.31%) of blood left - BPM : 190
Mratni: 2,375 liters (45.58%) of blood left - BPM : 48
Device: Mratni's turn to sacrifice
Todor (Since Mratni can't sacrifice... He will be eliminated because of less extraction than 5 ml... The game is ending in less than 40 seconds)
Todor:
Mratni...

You were good...
195
But I am...
197
The new CEO now...
198
The Perfect...

Perfectio-

Wha- Wha-?
203
Todor puts his hand on his chest, feeling how fast his heart is racing, and it was racing, for all this game.
Oli (OVER 200?!)
Todor: I... I have... I have won... Then... Then why?

Suddenly
Oli: TODOOOR!!
Todor's heart suddenly stopped. He had more blood left, but his heart couldn't pump enough blood at such speed. It gave up. Todor starts falling forward.
Todor didn't even reach the ground when.
Device: Todor's status changed - From Alive: Conscious, to DEAD: Cardiac Arrest. The CEO is once again Mratni.
Referee No.1 in high speed gets down to Mratni, doing everything to keep him alive, obviously a professional.
A few minutes later, it seems like Mratni's status is finally stabilized.
Oli: Sorry... Are we... Really going to just... Leave Todor here?
Referee No.1: I will take care of him. But as the rules say. I can do nothing to save him. The loser of the CEO Takeover game, dies, forever.
Oli: I think... I'm traumatized...
Referee No.1: Until Mratni, so the leader can't talk to you, you are also not allowed to leave.
Oli: W- what? Really?
A few hours later. Todor's body is not laying there anymore. Mratni is in a hospital bed but still on the roof with the referee and Oli.
Mratni: ...
Oli: Is he... He's awake already?
Referee No.1: Seems like he is, though it will be a long time until he will be in normal conditions again.
Mratni opens his eyes, silent for a few seconds before looking slightly around.
Mratni: Did I... win?
Referee No.1: Yes, leader. Todor died because his heart couldn't keep up.
Mratni: I see... my plan worked after all.
Oli: Your plan? What was your plan really? You even succeed to outsmart Todor!?
Mratni: I didn't.
Oli: What? But you won!
Mratni: Todor was... much smarter than me... I was just able to create the only circumstances I have a chance against him... and even then... I barely won...
Referee No.1: No need to strain yourself, leader.
Mratni: No, I'm okay. My plan you want to know, Oli? All I did is that I used up the fact that he wants to become the CEO more than anything, and that he is perfect.
Oli: I... Don't know if I understand...
Mratni: Todor was strategically so perfect every time... His brain couldn't stop thinking, you know, the brain consumes a lot of oxygen, if you can't stop thinking, in this situation, you can... Think yourself to death.
Oli: So you... Kept his BPM as high as you could to tire his heart.
Mratni: That's why my eyes were also closed the whole time. My brain got less information to work on, more oxygen I got left. Also when I knew he sacrificed 150 ml and I guessed 100 ml, it was for him to think about it and to get his BPM higher.
Oli: And that final 100 ml sacrifice?
Mratni: That's very simple. You can decide how much you want to sacrifice and when in the turn you are in the moment, so I got my blood extracted after I hit myself out, so it was not hard to make it look like it's not hurting, because it was not hurting.
Oli: So I guess, I have to keep everything I saw here a secret. Can I go now?
Mratni: The most important thing I wanted to tell you... Don't forget, you know
