The battle raged for thirty minutes, and their spells echoed the entire time. Finally Chela’s magic crumbled the last of them, and the glow at their feet died away. “All done!” the clerk boomed, and a roar went up from the gallery.

“Great job! Wow, I can’t believe you actually beat it!”

“Those numbers were nuts! I was freaking out the whole time!”

“………”

“………”

“That didn’t seem like a game at all… Here, drink these. You need a break.”

They stepped out of the circle and took the drinks from Pete without a word. Both chugged the contents and slammed them down on the nearest table.

“So many enemies! So long! And those dummies are stupidly efficient!”

“It demands curved shots, piercing and broadsides, and you’ve got to vary the elements?! Any dummies that slip through are brutal! How was that a game? This is essentially combat training!”

Oliver and Chela were basically shrieking, their friends nodding along. They both collapsed onto the table, and the clerk came over, beaming.

“Amazing victory! Can’t believe you’re both in year two. We don’t usually get any victories until at least year four!”

He jabbed his thumb at the counter. They looked up at the shelves lined with prizes—being packed up by another staff member.

“There’s a bunch of extra prizes, so we’ll have them delivered by carpet later. But the real prize is this! The two-player trophy!”

He grinned and set it down between them: a weighty brass trophy depicting two mages, wands at the ready.

Chela took it, and the clerk started clapping.

“Great fight. You’re today’s best couple! Survivors of a battle that fierce are bound to be together for years to come!”

With that blessing, he slapped them on the backs and returned to the counter. They gaped after him for a long moment, then their eyes went to the trophy.

“…It seems a bit late for that,” Chela said. “We’ve been fighting side by side all year.”

“True. But nothing wrong with a belated acknowledgment.”

They both pulled out their white wands and tapped them together above the trophy. They’d won this prize together. And this gesture was their little celebration.

But when she saw that, the Azian girl clutched a hand to her chest.

“……?”

“……Nanao, what’s up? …Stomachache?” Katie whispered, pulling her aside. Nanao’s hand never left her heart, clearly at a total loss.

“I know not what this means. My chest just…clenched up.”

Her eyes drifted over her shoulder, to where Oliver and Chela were chatting happily. Nanao might be confused…but not Katie.

Oh…I knew it.
