Nick narrowed his eyes.
Was Futuma bluffing?
It sounded very convincing that he knew that someone was there.
Even more, since he didn't know where Nick was, Nick's ability remained active.
It was actually possible to know that Nick was somewhere close to someone without deactivating his ability.
At this moment, a strong internal conflict was happening inside Nick.
Was Futuma bluffing or not?
If he was bluffing, he should be running out of Zephyx pretty soon, and Nick could get the jump on him.
If he wasn't bluffing, Nick might actually die to the poison.
'It doesn't actually matter,' Nick thought with narrowed eyes. 'One possibility has a high chance of death while the other is just a missed opportunity.'
The truth was that Futuma wasn't bluffing.
The Dung Heap's ability allowed someone to give off poisonous gas.
