《Mana World - Convergence》Prologue ch13. UPGRADE!!!

Week 5 day 7
Incredible long week so let's make a quick recap.
Georg blew up the lab TWICE (Already said sorry - Georg)(Sorry doesn't cut it, we lost the first magic tomato - Leon)(It was green and lacked maturation, like you Leon - Dom)(TOMATO q_q - Leon), we created a special wire to help drain us of mana, we found 3 mana stages or 3 mana types so far:
Foreign Mana (mana v0.1) = unstable but has no effect on this world. Is absorbed by living organic tissue. Takes usually from 3 to 5 weeks (footy took 1 week and 6 days and one of the technicians took 5 weeks and 2 days to be completely stable). It's main feature is that it will emit radiation.
Unstable Mana (mana v0.2) = this is the main cause of death, it's impossible to detect with machines so far. It reacts to the emotional state of the host. It's stabilization period is from 1 day (20 hours please - Leon) the fastest to well over a week (Sorry AGAIN. Now shut it Dom - Georg). It will change the host's body to an optimal state for the mana (still unsure of why).
Stable mana (mana v0.3) = Our main bet for mana v1 or just mana. This can appear in organic and inorganic material alike, it can spread to organic matter with little contact. Also when mana spreads to a new organic matter it becomes unstable. So far the vegetation, a few animals and insects are showing signs of mutation.
The French authorities were alerted already that this WILL affect the whole world sooner rather than later.
It's unknown if there is a fourth stage.
Now the surviving original member of the meditation team (Jack), Leon, two cooks, Tom (He didn't die - Dom)(You lost your bet, I can write here again - Tom)(You betted that if you survive you can write here again? - Georg)(Who is the crazy one now? - Dom), well in total about 231 persons (including LHC + hospital personnel) are at the third stage and 27 persons (Georg included) are at the second stage.

The success rate on us was about 60~70% using the new meditation system and the mana draining wires. The good news is that IF (being the keyword) you survive your body will be improved and most likely toned, most of your physical problems healed, we even found that one of the workers had an undiagnosed case of bone cancer stage 2 and went into remission by itself. Also there is no need for glasses in most cases (except for Georg), recovering "dead" nerves (like footy), even bald people are growing har (Hell the director is 83 and he might even be able to please his wife once in his life time - Leon)(How can you say that Leon? - Georg)(His wife is Margaret the one that works the evening shift on the 2nd recreational room - Dom)(The one with all the gaming consoles? that's why is ALWAYS empty? - Georg).
And finally, if everything goes as expected the new fruits and vegetables will be ready in about 2.5 months from now. That's something we all want to try (Thankfully we still haven't found any super bug - Georg).
___________________________________________________________________________________
Sorry for the more serious chapters but it's hard to make funny situations match the writing and don't sound like a slapstick/stupid comedy.
Comments, questions and reviews are accepted.
If you find any mistake please tell me. Thanks.

Twice Lived
Previously called Standard Reincarnation Story In a fraction of a moment, the Earth was no more. The planet was destroyed, and billions and billions of people were dead. And it was all an accident. This is the story of Elm. A regular American born once on earth and given a chance to be reborn again on a planet with magic and monsters and dungeons. Except that for Elm, this is far from the idealistic reincarnation into a loving family -- the standard story of a child raised by loving parents who teach him the ways of the world, Instead, Elm is born into a family of inquisitors. An order of nobility that is dedicated to hunting down and killing "Twice-Lived" -- the name society has for people like Elm who are reincarnated with all their memories of their past life intact. Disclaimer This story is: 1) Extremely violent and graphic. 2) Still in a rough draft stage. I see what I am writing more like a synopsis than a fully fledged story. I periodically will go back to flesh out earlier chapters, build characters, etc... If you find the words "Show don't tell," comforting accept that unfortunately, I'm not at that stage of the writing process yet. 3) At one point this story was called "Standard Reincarnation Story," and I had written an extremely off-putting description of the story. This was mostly to keep out people who would just read the silly first few chapters then rage quit as soon as the violent stuff got started. Since I just had my first .5 star rating (without a page read count increase) that technique is not working, so I might as well treat this as a regular fiction and try to get regular readers.

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.
