Chapter 132: A slime meets a friend of slimes

I found the worst by far part of the poison affecting me in a few hours, when I returned to the cave I cleared from the mantichora to catch some sleep. But of course… after an hour of doze, the poison kicked in, and I had to hold my breath and suffer through it before I could go to sleep again.

Then, an hour later, it repeated, and again, and again.

Needless to say, I didn't have much sleep. I never had problems with falling asleep before, or with sleeping just a little before going on towards the next meal, but something like that could disturb even the sturdiest sleeper. It worsened my mood even below what it was, and weakened me overall. Enough that I had to explore the mountain on foot or risk ending up in claws of a Bird of Paradise. And I normally destroyed them with my superior air manoeuvrability!
