"Let's start with your stance,"
In the training area, Clara spoke while she showed Theo her stance.
With her feet shoulder-width apart, she explained, "It's all about balance; if your body isn't aligned, your throw will always be off."
Theo adjusted his posture at the same time as she spoke, taking notes in his mind while also trying to do everything as similar as her.
When he was done, Clara stepped back and looked at him from up and down before nodding, "Good, now let's focus on that grip. Please, hold the dagger like this, young master."
She demonstrated it after coming in front of Theo and then gave the same dagger in his hands.
"Wrap your fingers firmly around the hilt, but not too tightly," she instructed, and Theo nodded, mimicking her.
He felt the cold grip on his palm and readied himself to throw it toward the wooden target in the front. The distance did not seem too far and felt right.
