After the talk at the time of breakfast, Theo told Clara about the thing that the silkworm in his terrarium could do.
Clara seemed repulsed by the fact that she had to be near an insect like that, yet even that seemed to pass when she realized how good of an opportunity this was.
Theo left the topic for the time being but researched the makings of silk. There was still a lot of time before Clara would leave.
His's days went the same for some time; his training was the same as before. His knives now directly hit the targets, but there was still the issue of how well they hit.
While Theo's body was sore from intense training on a regular basis, he could feel some of the changes already.
His stamina had increased from before he started, and that was what helped him take even more laps.
The mantis's skill was also increasing at a steady pace of 4% every day. It was maddening how slow it had become, yet after talking to Clara, Theo felt like this was still good enough.
