Jack, done pondering his thoughts, crawls out of his burrow. It is now night, and the planet’s three moons can be seen, two equally large ones and single small one seemingly suspended between them, all brightly beaming down.

Slowly and stealthily swimming, Jack quickly goes over his plan and discoveries “So it seems that the main thing is that I am no longer growing over time, or if I am, it’s incredibly slow.” “That being said, I want to check out if killing things still increases my size…”

Hiding among the rocks, his dark body camouflaging him from above, Jack strikes, grabbing a resting eel before it can react, and stabbing it with his two tails in each side of its head, piercing through its skull and cutting into its brain, killing it almost instantly.

Dragging it back to his burrow, he lets his tongues do their work, slowly feeding the creature into his mouth like a log into a wood-chipper “Hmm, very… pungent, I can tell I’ll get bad breath if I eat to many of these.” “Now to see if it was worth it, <Status>” Looking at his stats, his size has not increased at all “All right then, that’s… worrying.” “So how do I get bigger then?”

Almost on cue, his Progress tab starts pinging “Oh!” Tabbing over, he followings the blinking to Objectives, where he has a new one: ‘Kill Monsters at Least 90% of Your Own Size (Repeatable)’ “Huh, that’s a first, but that also means that there will be monsters close to my size here…” “And more than one.” “Huh.” “So yeah, that changes things, if I’m going to be fighting things that could reach my height, I need to be ready for that, my wider armor isn’t going to do much if they can just choose to not hit my armor.”

Quickly tabbing over to Claim Rewards, he redeems that mutation point “Hmm, alright, I have a lot of options this time, like, everything has at least one option, I think I’m all good for organs now, so I’ll avoid that.” “Hmm, lemme check out this slime, I don’t see how it is really doing anything now, so now that I have three option I should change that.”

Clicking Slime, Jack is met with six options: An icon with sparks coming off a back shape [Conductive Slime], another with a hand shape sticking to a back shape [Sticky Slime], an icon with a humanoid figure slipping through another one’s grasp [Slippery Slime], Another depicting a layer appearing in front of a blocking arm stopping a fist [Hardening Slime], an icon of a tiny see-through ball formed in a upwards-facing hand [Controllable Slime], and finally, one that shows a whip-like extension coming off of an arm [Stringy Slime]

“So many choices…”  

sir

I want y'all to put some reasoning for whichever one you would prefer down in the comments, I'm not set on which one he would choose myself.
