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.

Fleabag
In the deepest reaches of the Bone Pits, a canine seemingly like any other woke up in the ruined remains of a wooden box.With knowledge it shouldn't have, fleeting memories it couldn't reach, and the icy grasp of death crawling up its spine with every labored breath, it simply wished to live another day. Yet, in the bowels of a city built on metal corpses, nothing was ever simple. Of course, nobody said change would be simple, nor bloodless.And in the dark corners no one sees, in the shifting clouds of smog that none dare venture through, in the deepest reaches of the Dungeon that none but the mentally deranged dare challenge, the last wolf rakes its claws through steel and howls to a distant sky. Are you tired of fun monster evolution stories where the monster becomes increasingly less monstrous, and eventually they're just a more spicy version of a human and it stops being a monster evolution story?Well, i am.So- insert thanos meme where he says "fine, i'll do it myself"[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge.](The art in the book cover was made by an extremely talented artist named Chloe Bt, and she allowed me permission to use one of her renders as the main ingredient to my book cover, because she's fucking awesome.)

The Many Lives of Cadence Lee
Cadence Lee thought she was a normal girl, perhaps a little well to do, but not exceptionally so. She had her college classes, she had her job that her uncle gave her, and she had a nice boyfriend who was sweet if a little awkward. Except, when a mugger accosts Cadence and her boyfriend attempts to wrestle a gun away from the criminal, Cadence ends up shot. A normal girl, with the kind of wound Cadence had, would die. Cadence managed to do that part. But a normal girl wouldn't then open her eyes again and learn that death is not as permanant for her as it is for other people. She can be reborn again, and again. Each time stronger and with new abilities. The catch? Any world she is born into, she can never return to. She has infinite lives, but only one life for each. So begins The Many Lives of Cadence Lee.

Dreamland invasion
Dear Humans,I am very sorry that I have to inform you about the upcoming invasion of our world by foreign forces. We, the management, want to sincerely apologize for allowing this oversight. Sadly, the degree as to which we can interfere in this conflict is severely limited as this would allow the opposing party to act in a similar manner. But please don't worry, contingencies have already been implemented to maximize the effect of the little support we can give. Thus we ask you, to work together in stemming the coming tide, so that humanity may remain on the victorious side. As long as humanity beliefs, there is hope.Yours truly,God of public relations

Gamer
This story is abandoned and has not been authorized for distribution on any sites but RoyalRoad. Given the Gamer ability after shattering a crystal inside a game, Jon's world is upturned as he is thrown into a life he considered fantasy. Making new enemies and encountering a god, he cannot escape the quest which is forced on him. Different worlds and different situations, can he come out on top? He's neither perfect nor a saint, he is Jon. Welcome to Gamer. This has been dropped, I didn't like the way I forced a few plotpoints and I lost my notes on the story itself. Read below if you want to be spoilered. As far as I recall, he would change race into a higher human after using a spell to overload his mana repeatably until his body forcibly adapts, he would train up his rift usage spell with some better targets than God's Realm because he keeps hitting his stats limit until the cost lowers enough that he can actually grind it. His world is being invaded by multiple worlds, so the god had many backup plans where a lot of people went into their own fantasy settings and came back to defend Earth. Jon never is the strongest one out there, he has to keep grinding and grinding before he gets stronger than the other heroes, and at that point the invasion is nearing the final stretch. Jon's two biggest advantages is that he can keep grinding without hitting a cap he can't evolve, and that even when he is eventually killed. He would have respawned in the nearest 'Safe Zone' after dropping a level and everything he did to gain that level. I also had a bunch of ideas for mini-arcs where he would play in multiple worlds in multiple situations, not that great of an idea in retrospect.
