As usual, what the Baron spoke was the rule, leaving aside how unreasonable it could get.
Theo was sent to his room and had to stay inside it for two days.
Lucien came to rub it in a few times, but it eventually became a good bonding session between them, where they talked about the mid-lower forest, where Theo was trying to go next.
He gathered a considerable amount of information about the forest during those two days.
For the most part, Theo didn't even feel he was being punished, as there was so much to do with the ants now.
Their evolution was just not kicking in, especially after realizing they weren't able to eat most of the things they brought inside the colony, aside from the glass shards, which were weirdly their favorite now.
Theo needed a better catalyst, and for that, his mind wandered to the moss slimes.
They were the weakest beasts in the forest and also the same ones the mantis was able to defeat when it was only level 3.
