The car ramped his body and sent him to the air.
He landed headfirst on the ground, his head cracked open and blood spill everywhere.
His name was Morich, and he died there.
After that incident, his body was inside a cramped space.
He moved his whole body around and a crack appeared.
Light beamed through the crack.
So warm… so nice… I better get out of here.
Morich continued to move his body within the confined space.
It shattered and he gasped for air.
Morich scanned his surroundings.
A cave?
That yellow must be the light source.
Wow! Whose eggs is this?
There’s twenty of them.
A puddle laid on the ground not far from him.
He moved his muscle toward the puddle.
Morich looked at his body through the puddle.
What the fuck!
His whole body was green mixed with a bit of yellow, silky skin and yellow eyes.
I’m a snake!
His stomach grumbled.
He creaked
His other siblings began to hatch.
Are they going to eat each other after they hatch? If so, I better get away from here.
Morich ventured deep inside the cave, but he didn’t find any food.
Why do I have to reincarnate as a snake?
His stomach grumbled.
Shit! I’m starving, if only I have an ability.
Morich sighed.
Then, a stat window showed up before him.
Eh?
The stat window showed his set of skills; Poison Fang, Camouflage, Heat Sense and Smell sense.
Ye-, wait, this kind of development only happens in manga and light novels… then… A fight will happen soon… Haha…
His face started to tense up.
I have a bad feeling about this…
His stomach grumbled again.
Priorities number 1; find food.
Priorities number 2, monsters.
Morich continued to venture deep inside to found.
But, all he found was a dead end after dead end.

You stupid mother fucker! Why the fuck you reincarnate me in this shit hole!
His stomach grumbled even louder than before.
Morich decided to head back to where he came from.
He followed the path he took and soon he arrived.
Morich found multiple snake trails headed in the opposite direction of where he went.
Brothers and sister, where are you going?
Morich followed the path his siblings made and found the exit.
Excitement coursed through him like a kid got his first candy.
He exited the cave, but something grabbed him and lifted him up.
What the fuck?
An eagle above him, its legs had grabbed him.
Morich tried to wrap around its legs and bit the eagle.
But, he didn’t make it because of how short he was.
Shit! is there any other way to stop this eagle!
A light bulb appeared on his head.
Wait! That may work.
He focused all his strength on his mouth.
The difference between me and a normal snake and you!
Is that I’m once a human and human stays on top of the food chain!
Morich opened his mouth.
He projected a stream of poison at the eagle.
The eagle shrieked and let loose of its grip on Morich.
Oh no you don’t.
Morich climbed on its leg and bit the eagle.
The eagle began to plummet to the ground.
They crashed neared a river.
Morich looked at the eagle and it didn’t move.
His stomach made a sound.
Well… it’s food to me… Bon appetite.
The meat was raw, but Morich didn’t care because of the hunger.
As soon as he finished, the stat window appeared and showed him his stat.
Hmm!
His eyes widened.
What is this?
The stat window showed him, a new set of skills; Claw, Flight and Sight.

Also…
Shapeshifting?
To used his newfound skill, he needed to use the shapeshifting skill.
Let’s try this out.
Morich transformed into an eagle and his skills changed.
Wow! I’m an eagle!
He flew around the sky like a child on the playground.
But then, his stomach made a grumbling sound.
Dammit! Again? I just tra- wait!
Did my hunger change when I transformed into a hungry eagle or did I used too much stamina?
His stomach grumbled again, but this time, it was much louder than before.
That thought needs to wait, I need to find food again.
He scanned his surroundings and found a snake on the ground.
Food!
He flew toward the snake.
You’re dead meat now!

Mortis Operandi 1- New Hire
Thank you for reading, I have to start with that. The feedback and encouragement from RoyalRoad users helped me finish my book. I left the unedited version up as I worked on editing and making it a little more polished. However the time has come for me to put it on Amazon and hopefully let other people read the story. If you have Kindle unlimited you should be able to read the story there. If you just want to order an ebook version you can do that as well. I should have a paperback version coming up. https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07T46B4NM Again thank you for reading and helping me on this journey. It hasn't ended however, my second book which I'm hoping to do well enough that reading the first isn't completely necessary, is still being worked on here, https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/24562/mortis-operandi-2--terms-and-conditions . Any feedback, comments, even critism is welcome as I work on giving you the best version of my story. I'll leave the first two chapters up here, unless Amazon says otherwise. There should be enough differences to avoid issues though. THANK YOU! Thank you! thank you! __________________________________ Adventurers enter dungeons every day. Battling evil monsters, defying dangerous terrain, triumphing over devious traps... ... but none of them ever ask why? That arrow trap, who reloads it? The pitfall trap, who cleans out the bodies and sharpens the spikes? What if the grates get clogged, where will the blood and gore drain? When you are trying to study ancient lore or plan on conquering a kingdom, you don't want to worry about all that. You just want peace. Mortis Operandi is a different kind of company. One that celebrates diversity. One that celebrates value in individuals. With flexible pay and plenty of advancement opportunities, it is a company that knows its workers are it's most valuable asset. As they design, build, and install traps, rooms, obstacles, and repair they are a one stop shop. When a possible recall sets events into motion, the company must pivot in a new paradigm of full circle Dungeon service. The Goblin Eft No-toes has a solution that entwines ex-adventurer Elric into the business of death. *Note the above statements are forward looking statements. In no way do they promote or suggest that Mortis Operandi will project greater sales or revenue. Understand that investing in a company does involve some risks, and possibly much rewards.
