As expected, his opponent charged ahead towards him, the only difference was the fire dagger she brandished. Confident that she wouldn't reach him before his Soul Rot took effect, Niks started to spew the bile colored gas in front of him. His spine bend forward as he tried to lower the fog's height. Soon the Hex filled the space between him and the screaming half-dragon. Regardless, if the girl decided to brace the effect of her soul rotting without inhaling it and kept charging forward, his different position would likely hinder her attempt to stab him easily as the bone would shift the dagger's direction from stabbing his soulfire outright, although it would still nick it.
