CHAPTER 5: Stage-2 [Sword Aura]
Congratulations! You have advanced to Lv.11 [Sword Aura] by comprehending Lv.11 [Minor Sword Mastery]. Congratulations! Your [Minor Sword Mastery] and [Sword Aura] upgraded from Stage-1 to Stage-2. Congratulations! You gained the Mastery Perk [Sword Aura Extension] by reaching Stage-2 [Sword Aura]. Congratulations! You have met 1 of the three requirements for Tier-2 Evolution. Tier-2 Evolution Requirements: 1. Reach Stage-2 Sword Mastery 2. ✓ 2. Obtain enough Life Energy that is required to reach. ✘ 3. Obtain 1 Uncommon Achievement Title and 3 Common Achievement Titles. ✘ Congratulations! You received an Achievement Title, [Training Maniac-I] A new section for Achievement Titles got added to your [STATUS].
I was able to understand some important information from the new notifications that popped up.
First of all, my Stage-1 [Sword Aura] Upgraded into a Stage-2 [Sword Aura], and even though I was eager to check it out, I could barely move in that condition of Low Stamina.
Stamina: 3/65
Second, by achieving Stage-2 [Sword Aura] - (Lv.11 - Lv.20) [Sword Aura] and Stage-2 Sword Mastery - (Lv.11 - Lv.20) [Minor Sword Mastery], I even fulfilled one requirement to undergo Tier 2 Evolution.
Third, the Evolution to Tier-2 will occur when trying to reach Lv.11 by crossing Lv.10, and I also need 1 Uncommon Achievement Title and 3 Common Achievement Titles for Tier-2 Evolution.
Finally, to find out more about Achievement Titles, I opened my Status tab and found a new section in it.
Achievement Title [Training Maniac-I] (Common) Effect Endurance+5°
After looking at the Training Maniac-I Achievement Title and the Stats added through Achievement Title, there was a " ° " symbol.
I received another notification above the Status tab.
Do you wish to activate the Achievement Title, [Training Maniac-I]?
I gladly accepted it, and in the exact moment, where I laid on the ground with complete exhaustion, what I needed the most was Endurance.

Warning: Sudden increase of 5° Stats in Endurance causes severe pain. Do you wish to proceed in Safety mode? In Safety Mode, Stats will get added periodically so that your body can easily adjust to its improvements.
I selected Safe Mode as I felt it was not worth experiencing extreme pain since it was not critical to immediately needed Stats.
Endurance: 13 ➝ 14 Stamina: 8/70
I felt my body becoming sturdier, and along with that, my Stamina also increased by 5 points.
With the recovered Stamina, I plodded the bushes at the entrance and looked outside.
The Sunlight was still there, and it was even brighter; I placed my hand within the sunlight, and the shadow was slightly below, showing that it was a little past afternoon.
The new revelation baffled me and inwardly wondered to myself, 'Just how many hours are there in this place for a day to complete?'
As there was nothing I could do about it, I pulled my Mini trekking bag to use it as a pillow and went into a deep sleep.
**********
Just as I woke up, what greeted me was a notification.
Endurance: 14 ➝ 18 Stamina: 90/90
I mentally swiped them off and checked the time on the top left of my vision.
ALPHA Program Day - 1 Time - 18:04:11
I slept for nearly 4 hours, and it's been 18 hours since I got teleported. Because of all the heat, I wasn't able to sleep properly.
I felt a drastic change in my body became even sturdier, but it didn't show much of a change in my appearance.
Because of an increase in Endurance Attribute, even when I only slept for 4 hours, I felt refreshed, but the problem was that my body took a toll from the increase in my constitution, and that caused my stomach to let out a hungry roar.

I started eating food ravenously like I had been starving for a few days, and without realizing, I almost depleted all of my food items.
Then I went out and search for alternative food and water sources. For that, I need to prepare myself for any encounter with monsters.
So, I checked the Weapon Mastery section in my Status tab for the [Sword Aura].
STAGE 1 (Lv.1 - Lv.10) LV.1 [Minor Dagger Mastery] LV.1 [Dagger Aura] (Locked) STAGE 2 (Lv.11 - Lv.20) Lv.11 [Minor Sword Mastery] LV.11 [Sword Aura] [Sword Aura Extension] Lv.11 [Sword Aura] Damage Output increases by 110% when used on Sword Spirit Item. Cost 11 Spirit Energy per minute. [Sword Aura Extension] The Sword Aura becomes sharper as it extends beyond the Sword and the overall Damage output increases by two-fold. Cost 11 Spirit Energy per Second.
After noticing the description of Stage-2 [Sword Aura], I tried out using it on my [Rusted Short Sword], and a Cyan coloured aura started flowing on it.
With [Sword Aura] reaching Stage-2, my control over the sword aura increased to an even higher level.
I tried to use the [Sword Aura Extension], and an even sharper Cyan coloured Aura appeared, and it extended beyond the Sword tip and the [Rusty Short Sword], which was a half meter long, looked like it became one and a half meters long.
The [Sword Aura Extension] doubles the already increased overall damage, including the additional damage from [Sword Aura].
When used in combat as a surprise attack, it can be quite deadly!
The problem was it consumes a lot of Spirit Energy and even affects Stamina.
Once again, I received a notification saying that Rusty Short Sword’s Durability decreased, and this time it even reduced by 3 points at once.
Even my Stamina and Spirit Energy decreased by 5 points and 11points, respectively.
Durability: 37/100 ➝ 34/100 Spirit Energy: 40/40 ➝ 29/40 Stamina: 90/90 ➝ 85/90
I deactivated the [Sword Aura], and I waited for 15 minutes to recover my Stamina and Spirit Energy.
Meanwhile, I changed my clothes, took out the Boxing wraps from my bag, and tied them around my knuckles and wrist to have a better grip while holding the Rusted Short Sword.
When I get injured, I could even use boxing wraps like a bandage to stop bleeding.
I prepared myself to forage the surrounding area in search of any alternatives for food and water sources.
Before going out, I checked my [Status] tab.

The Infinite Labyrinth
(Story complete - Book 1 "Shanghaied", 2 "Shortcuts", 3 "Secrets" and 4 "Sanctions") It is the 19th century, and war smoulders between England and France. Any hope for a quick end to Napoleon's rampage across Europe ended when the Great Gates opened in 1800. For a fortunate few, the strange world of the Infinite Labyrinth offers opportunities, strange descriptors popping in their minds, informing them of growth, and status beyond that of a mere mortal. The materials and power crystal they bring back foster a new age, both military and civilian. Aether-powered Skyships prowl the skies, as all the great nations blessed by the Gates try to turn the blessings of the Labyrinth into immediate advantages. But for Jonas, an apprentice leatherworker, his friend Ira, and so many Londoners, the fabled ones that walk the Labyrinth are distant heroes, seen from afar. They fell short when their Potential was measured, and they fill their mundane lives with distant dreams. One man wants to break the stalemate. The Tyrant of the Dominion of France, Napoleon Bonaparte, has a plan. Eighteen years after the world changed, he will force it to change again. And when civilians are caught in the fallout, the unthinkable happens. Six people, unqualified, forbidden to ever enter the Labyrinth, find themselves stranded in a distant zone, forcefully turned into Professionals. They know little of what that means, but they have to figure out the rules that are now their lot, for they have little hope to escape their predicament otherwise. They need to understand what the descriptors in their minds mean, what each of the strange piece of gear waiting in treasure chests behind terrible guardians can bring them. They have to become Professionals on their own and rejoin the Empire. They will figure out their new lives one way or another. But will there be an Empire waiting for them when the Gates re-open? Caught in a clash of empires and high tiers, they will do what little they can. They will step up and do their best. One way or another. The Infinite Labyrinth is a slice-of-life litRPG adventure set in a real historical setting. It's a hard, crunchy litrpg. Expect blue boxes everywhere, and the system itself is very mathy. It started life as a serial. I prepared some proper worldbuilding, with enough details and background for lots of different potential story arcs, but as I wrote, I realized the main story needs to have a definitive end. So, there are four books in total, for a bit under 1500 pages, plus additional side stories, and even maybe a sequel one day. The Gore tag was added as a precaution because there are a few scenes with some light gore.

Keys of the Endpoint
Keys of the Endpoint is an illustrated web serial about the re-birth of civilization in a fantastical world suffering from a recent apocalyptic event. Every day, people appear from the storms that ravage the Endpoint. Whisked away from their own time and place by storms in their homelands, these newcomers find themselves in a hostile place made up of ruins and people from every timeline imaginable. Stranger still, they all soon discover they're carrying silver keys that grant each holder incredible powers. On Earth, most people have mundane excuses for the disappearances, but not Isaac. Having lost his brother Finn to one of these storms, Isaac becomes obsessed with finding a pattern. Not to prevent more people disappearing, but rather to get taken by the storms himself in order to find his brother. While chasing Finn’s faint trail, Isaac soon discovers how little he really knew about himself, his brother and how much loss one person can take. In Keys of the Endpoint there's portal fantasy, personal drama, magic (useable by everyone), plenty of combat, power progression, mysteries, factions, feuds and eventually war (in that order). The magic system is well defined and modular with nigh infinite combinations. The story starts out with one of the two main characters looking for his lost brother but quickly expands in scope from that point on.
