[Moss Carapace Mantis reached level 3 successfully]
Now that Theo was not scared of his mantis being eaten by a high-level sli, he quickly looked at the notification that he had ignored after reading a little. It was good news that he could see later too, nothing urgent.
A sense of satisfaction fell over Theo when he looked at the level of the mantis in its status.

'Wait, its grade changed?!' Theo exclaid and was going to shout, only to stop himself in ti. They didn't need more slis to co toward them.
The mantis, which had only been Ordinary grade, had reached Common with the evolution. Theo regretted not looking at the status screen sooner. He had been too engrossed just by its experience.
While Clara was quickly getting rid of the remaining slis, the mantis was unable to handle those that were higher by two levels.
'You have grown a lot in just a few days... mantis,' Theo thought as his eyes ward up. The mantis was looking toward him. Its eyes fixed in one place, Theo felt the sa feelings from the mantis at a very primitive level through his bond, and a smile ford on his face.
When Clara was all done, she looked toward Theo, who had a satisfied smile on his face.
With a curious tone, Clara asked, "Did sothing good happen, young master?"
Theo happily replied, "Yeah, the mantis just reached level 3."
Clara's eyes widened in surprise. She inspected the mantis on Theo's hand, only to see the level too.
"Congratulations on the level up, young master. But wait, how are you leveling so quickly? I was here with you all along, you only killed slis but... wait..." A frown ford on her face as she looked in the air.
"I was sure that the mantis was Ordinary grade, young master. When did that change?"
"You didn't look at the status screen too?" Theo asked with a chuckle. It seed the appearance had shocked everyone so much that they didn't think of anything else.
"The mantis didn't give ti, young master. Just when the pup found it, the mantis moved toward the slis in the bushes. I didn't have ti." Clara justified with little panic, seeing how this could make her professionalism look bad.
Yet Theo found it cute. He ignored her rantings and looked at the mantis's status one more ti.
"No worries. As for your previous question, my mantis was only Ordinary grade, so killing Uncommon grade slis gave it a bonus in leveling too."
When Clara heard that, Theo couldn't tell how she was taking this news.
"I don't know if I should be happy or leave it be, young master. But it's great that the grade of the mantis increased. It's a rare phenonon that happens in very high-level beasts. But I must say, I have seen this for the first ti with my own eyes," Clara stated, making Theo nod in understanding.
'Although mine didn't happen normally, it was because of the evolution...' Theo thought. The evolution affinity was proving very handy now, yet he still didn't know much about it.
"The mantis's stats have beco quite better than before. Its strength reached 4 now, and I haven't even used the free points yet," Theo grinned proudly while saying.
Yet Clara didn't share the sa emotions. "Just 4 points in strength?" she asked, yet kept a hand on her mouth to shut up.
Theo looked at her with a confused face. "I know 4 is not that good, but it's just the start. How about you, Clara? What's the strength stat of your boar?" Theo asked while patting the mossy head of the mantis.
"The boar's strength is at 42 now, young master. When I started my journey, it was 20." Clara tried not to sound smug, as she wasn't. Yet Theo was too surprised.
"42 is a lot... so that is why you are so capable of defending , Clara."
Clara blushed and shook her head, yet there was a small smile on her face too, as if she liked it.
"Ironclad Boars have a lot of strength and defense from the start. It's only agility that they are not good at."
Theo wanted to start another topic on why the boar was so fast when they traveled on it, but he refrained for now. There was ti to converse in the future.
For now, he looked at the skills of the mantis and went into thought.
Theo didn't feel disappointed by it. Hell, just a few days ago, the tallic Strike percentage was just at one, but now? It was at seven percent.
Without wasting ti, Theo commanded the mantis to start hitting the tree bark with its skill every five seconds again. He wanted it to improve as soon as possible.
The cycle of grinding started yet again. Theo did not benefit from killing level 2 slis anymore, even though there was still the grade advantage.
The deduction was too much, so he only targeted level 3 slis and made sure to try killing level 4s too, just for practice.
A few hours passed, and the number of slis seed to dwindle again.
Theo had killed five level 3 slis this ti. All the others were higher level, which he couldn't deal with.
Even the bonus of defeating sothing beyond the mantis's level was gone as it had reached level 3 again.
Yet for so reason, it still couldn't defeat a level 4 moss sli, making Theo research it, and he found so things out.
