《Questioning the Basic》Chapter 4: Intermission of Mostly Monologue
Advertisement
Hello everyone! Thank you for your support for my story, this my first RR fanfic and I wonder if I had done a good job. :?:
The release schedule were disturbed due to this week were exam's weeks. Yes it's weeks. Two weeks. I already had the general idea in my head, but releasing it in Monday-Friday is a big no-no.
Does Anyone here knew how proofreading system work? I love to have proofreader, spellchecker eliminate my misspelling but, sometimes I typed same-sounded word in my story (it's a bit mystery), also my grammar were terrible.
Oh, and thank you for your review! I very appreciate it.

[p=center]Total Teleportation Remained : 102[/p]
"Succes!! Succes!! SUCCESS!" shout Vin, jumping with joy; waving the teleport scroll excitingly.
"See, Fou! Told you, it'd work!"
"Alright! Fine! You're right! Happy?" said Fou, lying on the table. Obviously exhausted, from "assisting" Vin with his research.
"Now, let's work! We're making more! Lots and lots more!"
"...."
[p=center]****[/p]
~Four hour ago
"Now Fou, the theory is pretty simple. I had told you that mana come from external source and magic is the art of harnessing those source, internal mana are CATALYST to redirect external mana."

"But object, even simple object have at least a bit of mana, and this situation create equilibrium, which due to mana transport are passive transport, therefore, external mana stay outside and the object mana stay inside, because they had same mana concentration."
"We could try actively transporting the mana to object, which were the conventional way to create magical object. But in the process it'd take lots of mana, which defeat our purpose."
"First, increase the rate of transfer by open the "mana lid", you see mana lid were the limiting process of mana transfer, imagine like pouring water from half-closed bottle, it'd be faster to pour the water, if all the lid were open, magician have "more open" mana lid, that's why their mana regeneration is faster than melee class."
"Third, expand the mana capacity within the object. Therefore made it able to handle much more mana."
"Fourth, devoid the object of mana, thoroughly. Simply consume all the object's mana."
"Finally, insulate the object of outside mana with seal. When you want to use the magic, just release the seal. The sudden opening would influx the mana so fast, it'd destabilize the object to brink of explosion. BUT, the sudden influx will provide the energy, that will easily pass the "magical minimum energy requirement" of a spell."
"See for example if we use this technique on normal object it surely explode, but how if we use it in specially designed object, scroll for example."
"Mana influx would cause stress, and the energy that build up will took the most easiest pathway to relieve the stressful condition, namely the spell that we had inscribe. Therefore activating the spell. Of course we had to optimize many things and to optimize the many things, required relentless devotion."

"Therefore your assistance."
"...."
For Fou, the next four hour could only described by one word. Torture.
"Fou, mana seems have an ineffective coefficient of partition... Half; k=0.5."
"Means, every time you used magic of the object to the fullest, or extract it. Half of it's original mana will remain. If we want to create this influx. At least the remaining mana should be negligent..... umm... let say... 0.0001%?"
"So?"
"Well... for each object that I already expand the mana capacity, you have to extract it... twenty times?"
"WHAT? One times extracting, took third of my mana and a quarter of my stamina!"
"Hmm... well you should put seal every time you finished the extraction, so the mana doesn't come back inside."
"...."
"Good luck!!"

Evo-Gaming
Evolution based StarCraft story with game-like elements. Everyone gets a good cheat-like system with well design UI and player-friendly system. I get this broken piece of shit Alpha version. Not to mention, that starting at the very bottom is not that fun. Oh well, let's hope things get better later. Warning - If you read this now, you will be essentially beta tester. The story will include biology, chemistry, but will not focus on it too hard. I aim to please both groups but inevitably will probably alienate both the people who dislike the subject and the ones who like it.
