"First, let's organize some priorities: water and food. In soap operas, the protagonists who are in a forest or something like that seem like they don't need to eat, but here it's different, it's reality. We need food and water. We need the bare minimum to survive." Alex started talking about what he had lost, what was important for them to survive until they found another human or someone who could communicate.
"That's why I ask that anyone who has food or water put it at the front of the bus, because we need to ration what we have until we find more of these resources. Professor Stella will have to take care of that part."
"And Mr. Aroldo needs to try to get this bus moving again. Use your assessment skills to check the problem with the vehicle and, if necessary, call someone to help you. If you need something specific, ask if someone can help with a specific skill. And if you need to get off the bus, take someone with you." He asked the driver, because this was a priority for them: to get out of that forest that seemed more cursed by the second.
"I also want you to organize a list of your classes and skills, so that, if necessary, we know better how to operate and, if it is necessary to explore the forest in search of food and water, we can form teams so that we do not go out alone in this forest full of hidden dangers."
"Now let's get to work, because every second counts," he concluded, already getting up from where he was.
"And you, Mr. Alex?" asked Stella.
"I will watch around the bus in case there are more enemies around us, and I will also look for a way for us to get out of this forest when the bus is ready," he replied, already getting out of the bus.
'I'm going to climb onto the roof of the bus to get a better view of the situation around us.' Alex formulated a plan, but before he could complete it, he realized that the trees around him would prevent him from seeing anything beyond the circular clearing they were in.
So he jumped off the roof and headed towards a tree that seemed to be the tallest in the area, and within moments he had climbed the tree and seen the entire forest around him.
And he was immediately worried by what he witnessed, but that feeling disappeared the moment he appeared
"I'm not going to get used to this any time soon," he said as he climbed down from the tree.
"Is everything okay up there?" said Aroldo who was fixing the bus with the help of another boy.
"Right now there is nothing hostile around us, but I don't know for how long," Alex replied without telling the whole truth, because that would only scare them all.
"And the bus, is there a solution?" He hoped so, because walking through that forest was almost a death sentence.
"Yes, it does, the battery that fell, I think it was because of the demonstrations that brought us here. But our Billi here has the capacity to use electricity, we will be able to recharge the battery in less than an hour", said the driver with joy in his voice.
"At least some good news after all this"
"When you're done, let me know and get everything ready to go, I already have an approximate direction of where we should go, there's a part of the forest where the trees let the vehicle pass, only the path seems potholed" said Alex as he returned to the roof of the bus
"Don't worry, we'll get out of this hell soon," the driver said as he prepared with young Billi to recharge the battery.
Alex admired as Billi, who was 14 years old, had dark blue eyes and black eyes, but they didn't turn black the moment he used his ability, they had blue and arcs of energy surrounded his hand that was in contact with the battery, sweating as he slowly but steadily recharged the battery. Alex looked away and sat cross-legged on the roof of the bus and began to think to himself.
'Now, calmer and without anyone shooting arrows at me, let's watch this properly', he thought as he muttered
'Status Window' and soon a translucent screen appeared in front of him

'I'm very broke, it doesn't matter, but sometimes I see this, it just seems unbelievable that I have this ability, and especially this class' invented Alex
'I wonder what the hell this world is facing that they need to summon a broken hero like this, I've never seen any isekai with a character broken like this, there are some that come close, but I'm even more broken, but it will only help if I have time to grow, because if I find something much stronger than me I will die even with all this at my disposal'
He thought, because he knew that being arrogant and overconfident was the key to a quick death.
'But let's leave that for later, let's see the details now, because I didn't have time to look properly and there's still more now, first let's go to the attributes' and then he clicked on each tab he had doubts about and the information was revealed in the status of his screen

--------------------
'The attributes are basically what I expected, even with a simple description, it's possible to see what each one has to offer, and even without saying anything, it's possible to see that each one is somehow connected to the others', he thought before turning his attention to the skills and his class
