Chapter 136: Silver (3)
I quickly took the Chronicle of Heavenly Venomous Beasts from Hwa-eun’s hands and examined it closely.
Silver Silkworm Moth.
The name was composed of three characters: Silver, Silkworm, and Moth.
If translated literally, it would mean Silver Silkworm Moth.
‘This has to be the same creature!’
Having spent half my previous life—and now my entire current life—obsessed with venomous creatures, my instincts were practically screaming at me.
This is it!
“Silver Silkworm Moth.
A moth whose body is covered in a brilliant silver sheen. When fully grown, its body is about half a foot long, with a wingspan reaching three feet.
Although generally docile, when threatened, it releases a fine silver dust from its scales.
Any skin exposed to the dust will experience unbearable itching, leading the victim to scratch until their bones are exposed.
If inhaled, the maddening itch penetrates the mind itself, driving the victim into a frenzy as they claw at their own body until death.”
