It was time. Gon and the girls waited excitedly for Killua to come back. The moment he emerged from the starting point, Gon grinned and called out to him with glee.

"Welcome back, Killua! How was the exam?"

Killua grinned proudly and walked over, answering while showing Gon his fist.

"Of course I passed."

Gon matched his grin, and they bumped their fists in celebration. Bisky and Nahida walked closer. The Archon showed Killua her book and all the pages that were filled while Bisky grinned and did the same.

"Look at all these spell cards."

Killua exclaimed in awe while looking over each one. They went to sit and catch up, but Nahida excused herself for a moment. Saying she needed to use the restroom.

Bisky hummed and called out while she walked away. "Don't go too far!"

She nodded at Bisky's worry. "Got it!"

Nahida knew they would be able to hear her, and with how protective they are, the only way for her to gain some privacy was by using Zetsu.

Now behind a tree, Nahida summoned her book and went to the last page. Where that mysterious voice had given her two unique cards.

One with a ethereal young woman who resembled Nahida in her true form, and one with a purple cat sleeping peacefully. Its tail wrapped under its body. She couldn't help but smile at the picture before sliding the card off its slot.

She read the description again. 'Cat sight. This adorable kitten will share his vision with you, granting you insight into hidden clues towards a card. You have three chances to use his help.'

Chances, sharing vision, hidden clues...

Nahida sighed before softly murmuring. "Cat sight, on." The card morphed into a small, purple loaf in the shape of a cat.

Nahida softly held it in her hands. When the cat wrapped its tail around her arm and opened its eyes to look at her, their visions intertwined.

A man with a sharp jawline, loose, white clothing and spiky, red hair, hummed while turning to glance straight at her. When she met those golden eyes narrowed in amusement, Nahida shivered and pulled the cat away from her. Blinking away the vision while the cat closed its eyes and retreated back in the card.

She swallowed and frowned while recalling it again. "W-what?"

Why did it show her Hisoka? Is he here, in Greed Island?

Nahida frowned and looked at the card. Seeing the sleeping cat was now laying on its back, stomach exposed while breathing calmly.

For a brief moment, Nahida wondered if she should use the other card to get an answer...

"No..." There's only one chance to use it. She should save it for now, and ask the important question that could bring them back home.

"Nahida!" She recognized Killua's voice and quickly ran back to the group. When she got there, Bisky sighed and picked her up.

"Geez, what took you so long? I was starting to worry!"

She could only smile apologetically and allow Bisky to hug her. Killua shook his head at her antics and quickly explained how they had found Chrollo's name in the list of players Gon had met.

"The Phantom Troupe's leader?"

"Hmm. Kurapika was pretty calm when I told him. So it must be someone pretending to be him."

"That does seem like the only option."

Bisky placed Nahida on her side and grinned at them. "Enough about that, I think it's time for us to move forward."
