The next hour, when he tried using the ant queen to make a connection with the rat again.
Theo entered the bond between him and the ant queen, and saw the rat's silhouette.
When he felt the emotions of the rat that were open like a book in the taming space, Theo tried his hand at taming it again.
He tried communicating with it, but the rat, as if seeing an opportunity, rejected the advance right away, as if thinking it would go out of this place this way.
That was what usually happened, but as the ant queen had brought it with force into its bond, it really fell toward the ant queen whether it wanted to let the rat go or not.
When Theo saw no change in the rat, even though he sent a lot of images of food to it, he told the ant queen to stop the partial taming.
This was the only trial that had gone for five minutes straight before Theo felt like he knew somewhat of the problem.
