Checking the system out and planning the future.
All four waited in anticipation for the bar to hit 100%.
[INITIALISATION OF SYSTEM....100%]
As soon as the bar hit 100% a greeting was thrusted in front of their faces.
[Welcome hosts to the omniverse system.]
With that confirmation that this was not a joke Tristan posed a question to the system.
"Uhh system can you explain all of your functions please, maybe dumb it down so Craig can understand."
Immediately a response was given from the system.
[The functions of the system are as follows:
Status- Shows your current information.
Quest- System gives out quests for rewards.
Shop- Access the Omniversal shop.]
After reading the description Craig could not help but feel dissatisfied and ask "Guys why did the system give us such a shit explanation."
Quick to answer was Rushdiy who explained to Craig exactly, in his best business voice, why it was shit "Craig you see, you are a retard and as such the system dumbed down the explanation for you"
Craig was in shock that the system would do such a thing and thus asked for confirmation "System is this true, did you really dumb down the explanation because of me"
Quickly a response was given from the system, as if it was trying to defend itself.
[Apologies user Craig but user Tristan had asked for a dumber explanation for you and the system judged that, due to your stats, a sufficiently dumber explanation was required for you to understand all of it"
"Tristan this is all your fault you bastard!" Craig exclaimed pushing the blame onto Tristan
"What do you mean its my fault!" Tristan shouted, as if none of this involved him "Besides it's YOUR STATS that the system mentioned, not ours yours!"
"Wait! System that can't be true, tell me he's lying, show me my stats!" Craig pleaded trying to see if there was truth in what Tristan and the system said, but alas the truth is a hard thing to accept.

"Here! See the system is wrong I'm actually smart" Craig proclaimed upon seeing his stats.
"Pfftt, Craig did you read incorrectly" Keaghan asked unsure if Craig is serious or making a joke.
In confused anger Craig responded "Huh! What do you mean reading incorrectly."
"But your Intelligence is at 7" Tristan tried to diffuse the situation.
But Rushdiy set it back "See Craig even the system thinks your an idiot" adding "But wow you really are dumb, like a seven, a fucking SEVEN!, Craig that's sad"
Defending himself Craig shouted "But a seven should be fine! Shouldn't it!?"
In an instant the hope that Craig had was crushed by Keaghan who asked "Uhh system what is the average intelligence of normal people here?"

"Wah Craig your a bona fide retard" mocked Rushdiy, aiming at Craig's intelligence stat.
"Then what about your stats Rushdiy? In fact all of you show me your stats!" Shouted Craig in anger.
"System just do it." Rushdiy said having enough of Craig's bullshit.

After seeing all their statuses Craig had lost hope, sitting on the ground and staring at the sky, but then came Rushdiy "Craig, see you don't listen when we tell you, you're an idiot but noo you believe otherwise, now wallow here knowing your a retard."
With that Rushdiy was about to leave but was stopped by Tristan calling all for everyone's attention "Alright boi's seeing as we're in a dangerous-ish territory we need a game plan."
That got a there attention and seeing no other choice Craig decided to put everything else behind him and focus on the current objective, surviving.
Joining them he asked "Why do we need a game plan exactly?" Curious as to why Tristan would suggest that.
In response Tristan merely smiled and asked "Craig think about this, we don't know when we are in the story, have no money like a certain astrologist or a friend of ours, and finally we are weak, so knowing all that do you really think a game plan is not needed?"
Craig embarrassed answered "I didn't really think of all that." Then he asks Tristan "Tristan I understand all of the other stuff except why we need to know when we are in the story, is that really necessary?"
This time it was keaghan that responded "Craig if we are at the start of cannon or before it we have time to grow stronger." then he smiled "Also we can get the gnosis that the traveller loses, isn't that right Tristan?"
Tristan merely smiled but did not refute his claims, but rather started discussing " Alright, seeing as Craig is brought up to speed I think it is time to discuss our next moves, I take it no one is opposed to practicing and getting a grasp on combat?"
Everyone just nodded agreeing that practicing was currently the best course of action.
Seeing that no one disagreed Tristan continued with his his point "Boi's I feel like we should chill in the forest for a while or not go to monstadt for now"
All three wanted to know why, it before they could speak Tristan raised his hand with his palm facing them and said "Guys currently now we don't have money, what is the use of going to monstadt now?" That quieted them down.
Finally ending his part "Boi's all of us here know that we need to train, but we gotta take that a step further not just training but rather grinding, grinding like hell, cause I don't know about you guys but I'd rather not get jumped by raiden's domain expansion, no thank you."
He took a second to look each one in their eyes and asked "So boi's any one objecting to my idea?" Seeing that everyone agreed he rallied them "Aight! Let go-" but before he could finish Keaghan interrupted him "Tristan where exactly are we going to sleep if we're not going to monstadt?"
"In a hillichurl camp duh, where else." Tristan responds as if that was natural.
Keaghan just merely shrugged his shoulders, now that they have a clear goal and are united he doesn't want to break that.
Seeing no one wanted to ask him question Tristan continued where he was cut off "As I was saying, let's go to the to the statue close by and see if we can get use the anemo element, seeing as we have the Decender title we should shouldn't we?"
The others merely nodded and prepared to go look for the statue, just when they were interrupted by a system alert.
[Alert! Alert! Users you have incoming mail]
[Awaiting user command]
"Receive the mail system." In that moment Tristan took charge of the situation.
[Mail received.]
