Kiro vaguely remembered he had unlocked a skill during his berserk mode. It never made it to the front of his mind until now, he wasn't as excited about checking his stats as he once was at the start of the game.
Mainly because he was just that strong, there was almost nothing that could contend with him that was part of the game, harbingers were of course an exception. With that, he found it useless to check his stats until now.

[You're really not that sharp guardian, it's surprising since you've elected yourself as the leader. Why do you think your constitution is so high? Why do you think you can see in the dark?]
"Right. But it's just so unimpressive. Why are they passive skills that aren't part of the skill set? It'd be cool to have a 'dragon eye' skill or something like that."
[Childish...]
Kiro was used to the system's taunts, he wasn't going to let it bother him. So he simply scoffed at that remark. He just couldn't wait to use his gemino skill, if they weren't in the middle of a dangerous quest, he would've activated it right away. But he was smarter than that.
He also decided to be a leader. They were all in the same boat, casting out the two wouldn't do them any good. He figured this could be good practise for their next harbinger kill, they needed to establish their own strategies.
They had two archers, battle mages and priests. With Kiro, Hiro and Nikolai being the odd ones out. As a tank, Hiro would have to be at the forefront. While the two battles mages were at the back of his two sides.
The priests weren't allowed to hide behind Ishaan's shield, they'd have to avoid getting killed in the battlefield using their own skills. Which Felix saw as a bonus, he didn't want to be stuck inside a dome anyway.
The atmosphere wasn't so bad that they couldn't handle it, even Ishaan wasn't sweating too much. They walked on a thin trail up the first mountain, everybody was still sulking that they were plunged into this without their consent. But they knew better than taking it out on each other.
"The monsters here, what are they?" Isla asked.
Most eyes fell on Kiro. He was the one who seemed to have inside information about this game, most of all, he was the one who recommended this place to them.
Kiro knew, but he wasn't going to tell them. He couldn't raise their suspicions any further. So he shrugged at her question.
There was also the possibility that none of the monsters from his previous life were here so he didn't want to tell them information that could easily flip on them. Even he was ready for anything.
From the information previously, he knew the mountain was ruled by some monster that called itself a god. Fire was its speciality hence the heat it exuded. There were also titans that answered only to this god. The mountain was also riddled with all kinds of illusions.
"This red was strange at first, but it's kind of beautiful isn't it?" Saanvi said excitedly.
It was only Hiro who answered her. Nobody else was bothered, they were all apprehension about what they would be fighting here.
Hiro though suddenly jumped forward, stopping in front of a blue flower. With everything else red, it was truly a thorn that stood out. He gathered his equipment, and slowly dug around it. Picking it from its roots.
"Not what we came for, but this is good for a poison potion. I've never seen it this high levelled before." He proclaimed, excitement couldn't be contained from his voice.
Nikolai was also ecstatic, he was the only one out of the bunch that dabbled in poisons, so this was music to his ears. He even walked besides Hiro.
"Need help?" He asked.
"That's okay." Hiro didn't even look up as he said, if he dared to remove it from the soil it would quickly die.
That's one of the many things he'd learned as a craftsman apprentice. He finished what he was doing and carefully placed the herb in his inventory space. He quickly wiped the sweat that was forming on his forehead.
Everybody had stopped walking to watch what he did. You could tell they were bored, just then the mountain rumbled and shook just enough for them to lose their balance.
