The notifications revealed crucial information, each one bringing a surge of excitement and anticipation. However, the exhaustion weighing down his limbs kept him grounded in the present.
His Stage-1โSword Auraโhad ascended to Stage-2, a remarkable feat that should have filled him with energy, but his depleted stamina held him back from fully exploring this newfound power. His eyes glanced at the status bar, the dwindling number a stark reminder of his physical limits.
๏ดพ Stamina: 3/65 ๏ดฟ
The upgrade wasn't just a minor improvement; it marked the leap of hisโSword Auraโfrom Lv.1-10 to Lv.11-20, aligning with his Stage-2โMinor Sword Masteryโ. The advancements were more than mere improvements; they were vital steps toward achieving Tier-2 Evolution.
He learned that crossing the threshold from Lv.10 to Lv.11 would trigger this evolution, but the path required more than just leveling up.
The notifications made it clearโhe needed one Uncommon Achievement Title and three Common Achievement Titles to qualify for Tier-2. This revelation spurred him to investigate further.
Driven by curiosity, he opened his Status tab. His gaze fell on a new section that had appeared, the interface subtly shifting to reveal more about the elusive Achievement Titles.

After reviewing the Achievement Title, he noticed that the stats added through it were marked by the 'โ๏ธ' symbol. This symbol served no purpose beyond distinguishing the stats based on their source.
He didn't dwell on its significance, instead gladly accepting the additional Endurance stats with a sense of satisfaction.

He hesitated for a moment, weighing his options carefully. The choice before him was clear: activate Safety Mode or endure the full brunt of the process. The latter promised a surge of power but came with the cost of excruciating pain, a burden he wasn't sure he needed to bear at that moment.
The situation, while important, wasn't dire enough to justify putting himself through such agony. With a deep breath, he selected Safe Mode, feeling a sense of relief wash over him.
๏ดพ Endurance: 13 โ 14 ๏ดฟ
๏ดพ Stamina: 8/70 ๏ดฟ
A subtle yet noticeable change swept through him as he felt his body becoming sturdier, a newfound resilience settling into his muscles and bones. His stamina improved by an additional 5 points, leaving him feeling more energized than before. It was as if the very air he breathed had invigorated him.
Slowly and cautiously, he prodded the bushes at the entrance of his temporary refuge, curious to see what awaited him outside.
As he peeked through the leaves, the bright sunlight greeted him, even more intense than it had been before. He extended his hand into the golden rays, observing how the shadow it cast fell slightly belowโan indication that the day was progressing past its peak.
The revelation left him momentarily puzzled. By his reckoning, it should have been later in the day, yet the sun seemed high, its light unyielding. He frowned, his mind racing with questions. 'Just how many hours are there in this place for a day to complete?' he wondered silently, the thought gnawing at the edges of his understanding.
But as perplexing as it was, there was little he could do to solve the mystery at the moment. He knew better than to waste energy on problems that had no immediate solution. Instead, he decided to prioritize rest, knowing that a clear mind and a well-rested body would serve him better when the time came to act.
He pulled his mini trekking bag closer, the familiar weight offering a modest sense of reassurance. Placing it beneath his head as a makeshift pillow, he allowed himself to sink into its softness. The exhaustion he had been pushing through finally caught up with him, and his eyelids grew heavy as sleep swiftly beckoned.
As he drifted into a deep, restorative slumber, his thoughts faded into the background. The mysteries of the day, the unusual length of the sunlight hours, and the challenges yet to comeโall these concerns were set aside, leaving his mind in a state of peaceful oblivion.

As soon as he woke up, a notification greeted him, hovering in his vision.
๏ดพ Endurance: 14 โ 18 ๏ดฟ
๏ดพ Stamina: 90/90 ๏ดฟ
He mentally swiped the notification away, focusing instead on the small clock displayed in the top left of his vision.
๏ดพ ALPHA Program | Day - 1 | Time - 18:04:11 ๏ดฟ
Realizing he had slept for nearly four hours, he processed the information. Eighteen hours had passed since his arrival in this strange place, and the weight of that realization settled heavily on his shoulders. The intense heat during the day had made his rest less than ideal, leaving him feeling groggy and unrested.
The stifling warmth had seeped into his bones, causing him to toss and turn even in his sleep. Despite the extended rest, he still felt as if he hadn't fully recovered. The day was dragging on, each hour stretching longer than expected, and the relentless sun showed no signs of easing up.

Despite the less-than-ideal conditions, the boost in his Endurance Attribute made those four hours of sleep surprisingly restorative. He woke up feeling refreshed, a stark contrast to the exhaustion he had felt earlier.
The most noticeable change was the newfound sturdiness in his body. Though his appearance remained mostly unchanged, he could sense the increased resilience and strength within him.
However, the enhanced constitution came with a side effect. His body, now demanding more fuel, made its needs known with a loud, insistent growl from his stomach. It felt as if he hadn't eaten in days, and the hunger struck him with an intensity that was almost overwhelming.
Without thinking, he began devouring his food, tearing into his supplies with ravenous fervor. By the time he paused to catch his breath, he realized, with a jolt of concern, that he had nearly depleted his food stock.
The realization hit him hardโhe needed to find alternative sources of food and water, and quickly. Survival in the unknown environment hinged on securing basic necessities.
His immediate priority shifted to preparing for the potential dangers that lay ahead. He knew that in order to safely search for sustenance, he had to be ready to face whatever creatures or challenges awaited him.
With this in mind, he opened the Status tab and navigated to the Weapon Mastery section.

After examining the description of Stage-2โSword Auraโ, curiosity got the better of him, and he decided to test it on hisโRusted Short Swordโ. As he channeled the aura, a cyan-colored energy began to flow along the blade, shimmering with an intensity that was both new and powerful. The improvement in his control was immediately apparentโStage-2 had not only enhanced the aura's potency but also refined his ability to wield it with precision.
Eager to explore this newfound strength, he attempted theโAura Extensionโtechnique. As he concentrated, the cyan aura intensified, becoming sharper and extending beyond the tip of the sword.
The half-meter blade suddenly appeared to be one and a half meters long, cloaked in the vibrant cyan light. The extension gave the impression that the weapon had grown, and he marveled at the transformation.
This new form of theโAura Extensionโnot only doubled the damage output but also stacked on top of the already increased power granted by theโSword Auraโ. The thought of using it in combat excited himโsuch an unexpected length and sharpness could catch any opponent off guard, potentially turning the tide of a battle in an instant.
However, the exhilaration of wielding this power came with a cost. He quickly noticed how much it drained his resources. The technique consumed a significant amount of Spirit Energy, and the strain on his stamina was immediate and noticeable. The toll it took was severe enough that a notification appeared, warning him of the consequences.
๏ดพ Durability: 37/100 โ 34/100 ๏ดฟ
๏ดพ Spirit Energy: 40/40 โ 29/40 ๏ดฟ
๏ดพ Stamina: 90/90 โ 85/90 ๏ดฟ
The decrease in the sword's durability was particularly concerning. This time, it had dropped by three points in a single use, indicating the strain the aura was placing on the already fragile weapon.
The realization that each use of the technique not only drained his energy but also wore down his equipment added a layer of urgency to his situation. His Spirit Energy had taken a significant hit, dropping by 11 points, and even his stamina wasn't spared, reduced by 5 points.
He knew that while this newfound power was formidable, it had to be used wisely. The strain on his resources and the wear on his weapon meant that he couldn't afford to rely on it too heavily, especially in prolonged encounters. It was a tool for decisive moments, a technique to be unleashed when the situation demanded it.
As Jay waited for his stamina and Spirit Energy to recover, he took the opportunity to change into something more comfortable and suitable for the task ahead. He rummaged through his bag and pulled out a pair of loose-fitting, black training pants made of a durable, breathable fabric.
The pants, designed for martial artists, offered him both freedom of movement and an aesthetic appeal. Their loose fit allowed for maximum flexibility, perfect for the agile movements required in combat, while the material ensured that they wouldn't cling or restrict him during intense activity.
Paired with the pants, Jay donned a snug, moisture-wicking black compression shirt that hugged his torso, providing muscle support and a sleek, streamlined look. The contrast between the tight-fitting top and the loose, flowing pants created a balance of form and function, embodying the discipline and strength of a martial arts trainer.
With his fresh clothes on, Jay retrieved a pair of boxing wraps from his bag. He expertly tied them around his knuckles, ensuring a firm grip on hisโRusted Short Swordโ. The wraps, a familiar part of his routine, not only enhanced his hold on the weapon but also provided a layer of protection, doubling as potential bandages if the need arose.
Once dressed and prepared, Jay's thoughts turned to the pressing issue of finding food and water. His earlier hunger had nearly depleted his supplies, making it clear that he needed to forage the surrounding area for alternatives. The unknown landscape beyond his temporary refuge held its dangers, but he had no choice but to venture out.
Before stepping into the wild, Jay paused for one final check. Opening hisโStatusโtab, he scanned through his attributes, ensuring he was prepared for any encounter that might come his way.
