Chapter 146

I slowly turned my head and looked back at the dead bird that was several times larger than I was. It had no feathers left on its back while its wings had the minimum amount needed to fly.
"The feathers are pretty sharp... And pretty big. If you think about it, aren't they the size of a dagger, maybe a little bigger? Actually, I'm pretty sure its the size of a short sword..." My mouth was left agape as countless possibilities ran through my mind.
The spear was useful of course and would probably continue to be useful as long as I don't meet anything with scales that are too hard, but other than that I should be fine to use it. The only problem is that the moment I do use it against something, their meat immediately becomes unedible due to the poison" I analyzed while narrowing my eyes at the tip of the spear, trying to see where the poison came from.
I searched without success, making me finally turn my head back towards the feathers before talking up to the wing and plucking one out.
The feather was about the size of my hand, and forearm and would go a little further than my elbow if I put it and my arms side by side.
"They're pretty light!" I exclaimed while throwing it into the air and grabbing it by the stem of the feather.
"The handle isn't too great tho..." I sighed in disappointment, yet I quickly brightened up after innovative ideas for a handle began to run through my mind.
I did not waste any more time around the bird's corpse since I knew that I couldn't eat it, making me ignore it and return towards the direction of the skull home I had created for myself.
I took a few feathers with me of course, around 5 or 6 while putting them on the belt that had stayed mysteriously clean and unscathed this whole time, unlike my t-shirt of course.
I had used my T-shirt since it had already been damaged far too much, to tie the poison sting spear to my back since I didn't have any other way to hold it other than holding it with my hands, something I didn't want to do since it would limit my mobility in situations like jumping from tree to tree or making long lunges in general.
I was running around shirtless and I simply did not care for the matter. There were no intelligent animals nearby so I felt no shame in walking around shirtless or maybe even pantsless. Instead, even if there would have been some intelligent species roaming around, I still wouldn't have been too bothered about being shirtless and instead, might have even been proud of it.
