-- Found ONLY on Royal Road --Reborn upon his death, Luke is ready to grab this new world and take it by storm! Though, he'll probably find that difficult without hands. Or other appendages. Reborn as the most basic of basic slimes in a massive dungeon descending deep into the heart of the world, filled with monsters designed to kill and survive, Luke doesn't let the bad times get him down! If the world gives you lemons, make lemonade! Or, in this case, survive and thrive by leveraging the untapped potential of your non-Newtonian form! Bring on the Slime-Age! Oh, this world is also full of Guilds, nations, and organisations packed to the rafters with superhuman monster hunters that could use him to butter their toast for breakfast? And there are monsters older, leaner and meaner than him fighting just as hard to survive and thrive? Eh, I'm sure he'll be fine. It's not like there's anything concerning going on up on the surface that would make folks descend into the dungeon, right? What's that? Oh... [What to expect:MC is a monster and will mutate and gain skills to increase their strength.There's gonna be very few numbers, most of them to do with collecting resources. Little to no attention will be paid to big number stats, the meat of interactions and combat will be be found in skills and mutations.Optimistic, go-with-the-flow MC. Inspired by Chrysalis, of RinoZ. This story uses the same/a very similar leveling and evolution system, because it's an inspired system that is easier on my brain.   At least until Chapter 13, there's not going to be much in the way of conversation between characters due to the limited number of creatures willing to communicate with the MC. This will change as they learn more about the world and meet new people/not-quite-people. Instead, the MC is quite happy talking to themselves and keeps himself going with little pep talks here and there! This is my first time ever posting something I've written to any platform, constructive criticism is immensely appreciated!] [This work is my participation in the November 2023 RR Writeathon!]
