Chapter 8 The Anti-Holy Sword and Insectomancy

Eclipse's POV

I woke up with my arms feeling like something was dug out of them and then replaced with lead. My lower jaw also felt strange like it was no longer one jaw.

I groaned as I sat up. "HAY is anyone there?" I shouted noticing no one was around.

"Oh! Eclipse is awake!" Shouted Scythe in excitement then flew directly to my booms or what passed for one on my five-year-old body and hugged me as best as she could. But it was more like she hit a wall than a hug.

"Hay Scythe where's Talia?" I asked pulling her off my chest.

"Oh, that directionally challenged girl she's out gathering fire wood and harvesting loot from the corpses of the bugs." Replied Scythe.

"Bugs?" I asked looking around and seeing that I'm in some sort of forest. "Hay where are we?" I questioned.

"The bug forest just outside of that poisoned town." Spat Scythe.

"Oh, so the first equivalent of a field dungeon. But your wrong I studied the maps while I was still in the town. We are several hundred miles from that accursed town." I said ending in a growl.

"I know how you feel but you don't have to worry about the town it's been throuly cleansed. Fitting that a the poisoness town was poisoned." She giggled.

I couldn't help but laugh at the irony. "So, who poisoned it?" I asked calming down.

"Welllll," She hesitated.

"Who?" I demanded.

She looked away and mumbled something.

"I can't hear you. Speak louder." I growled.

"A dragon poisoned the city!" She shouted.

"Ok then why did you try to hide it from me." I asked then it came to me. "So, I finally unlocked my demon." I sulked.

"Yes, and you then proceeded to kill the dragon and absorb it. So, I would be cautious about your bodily fluids from now on." She warned.

"Dam I don't want that dragon I won't be able to get close to anyone." I wined.

"Sorry but thems the brakes." She shrugged.

"Ok, no. that saying doesn't even work here no one but me and Talia would understand that." I groaned rubbing the bridge of my nose. "Wait if you said I beat it then. 'Inventory.'" I said aloud.

My inventory popped up showing several tabs unlike last time where it had everything scattered in one tab it now had a tab for several categories. One for weapons one for armor one for food one for alchemy one for smithing and the last for miscellaneous things. I first opened the weapons tab and noticed it was cluttered with broken and regular swords that the skeletons used. There were a few wands and bows but mostly it was swords. I decided to sort my weapons out to those that I use the most starting from Yubishiri and ending with the third slot as The Bow of the Ancients the rest were sorted by rarity.

I then went into the clothing tab. It also apparently held my shields and arrows, so I decided to organize that to where my Reaper set was in the first few slots and my Roulette quiver was in the 11th slot. And just like my weapons my armor and clothing were sorted by rarity.

I then went into my alchemy tab skipping the food tab and in the first hundred slots were blood of the poison dragon and saliva as well as several organs. The rest were plants I received as drops or picked up in the dungeon. I sighed glad that I got the pieces I need to make something to contain my new poison.
