[Routine and a cliff hanger]

When Obsi awoke again he was surprised, not because of another rumbling or a growth spurt, the opposite actually, he had for once had a good rest.

Thank you God of sleep! I'll forever be grateful to you!

Squiggling happily he rolled out of his cave, stretched and started once more looking around.

I didn't even have a growth spurt! This is great! Except the routine, although the fish are tasty.

As Obsi began planning out his hunt he looked around. Finding a group of Swarm Tuna he decided to start from them. Definitely not doing it because they're soo yummy, not at all.

Executing his tried and trusted method he snuck above them and waited. Three minutes later he saw five of them dispersing from the group. Deciding to start from them he charged. In a second they were all dead, two by his bite, two by being crushed and the last punched to dead.

Gore flying everywhere he whipped his tail, feeling it impact at least four of them. Immediately after he bludgeoned his way into their group, crushing another two in his hands he swung his tail wildly killing three more of the fish. It had taken him three seconds to eradicate most of the group, leaving three alive to suck them to death.

Man I'm brutal, three seconds and seventeen fish are dead. A lot of them died to my tail whip so it should level up soon. It also causes a lot of gore. Like a lot lot. I'm feeling sick from looking at this. Still can't puke tho.

As Obsi thought to himself he began his clean-up, sucking out all the blood he could. After finishing his clean-up he started looking for more prey. Seeing quite a few possible targets he went on the move.

Ah look, the sickly acid fish, I should probably kill it to know what it is.

And he did as he thought, getting the notification after whipping the fish with his tail.

YOU KILLED A LEVEL 2 'ROT ACID FISH'!

I knew it, this thing is disgusting. Anyways.

He continued on to the next group of Tuna, the 'battle' going the same way as the previous, being also a complete massacre.

As Obsi finished his eight group of Tuna he considered exercising. I'm really getting fat, really should exercise. Alright, I'll do that, right after the next group.

It was not in fact right after the next group, he had taken down three more groups and gotten a level up.

+1 LEVEL!

+1 VITALITY

+2 STRENGTH

+1 AGILITY

I don't remember ever getting only one agility... I really am fat aren't I? Well, time for exercise I guess. Swimming around is soooo boring though, I wish I could hit something instead... I'm a genius! I'll just swim and hit things at the same time! That way I can also train tail whip!

With a new cheerful attitude Obsi set out to do laps around his cleared area.

It had been five hours since Obsi began his exercise, turning which he managed to not rest at all. He also killed plenty of fish, learning to be more accurate with his swings and netting him a level in tail whip. By the end of the exercise he was so tired he found it hard to keep himself awake.

Swimming his way towards his hole-home he thought about today's gains.

So I got a level and a skill level but noting from the exercise?

YOU HAVE EXERTED YOURSELF!

+3 ENDURANCE

... Why didn't you tell me before! It could have boosted my motivation! Maybe I could have gone for another lap or something! Gaah whatever at least I can sleep now. I sincerely hope I won't get any fatter.

Reaching his hiding hole Obsi went in and slumped down, falling asleep in seconds. Unbeknownst to him there was something rummaging through his massacre, something that was very interested in meeting him...

...

Stupid exercise...
