Chapter Nineteen

Nicoletta swallowed hard. “I don’t want to leave you,” she said softly.

Gary was moved. “Aw, is someone worried about me?”

“Yes, because you’re a bit touched in the head.” The yes was firm, but the rest of her words were teasing, and her fingers brushed so gently around his wound.

“I’m fine. I am. Go ahead. Log off. It’s got to be late, right?”

“It is. And I’m hungry. This game, it really takes a lot out of you. The jolts are one thing if you’re only hit here or there, but continuously? And the ground shaking? And the jolt from his wind blast… If that’s the kind of power we can work up to, that’s incredible.”

“Do you think he’s a mage like Jorge?” Gary asked.

"Or maybe he's an elemental, but I thought I read that so far, everyone could only use one element like I can only use fire."

“Maybe you’ll be able to add a second one if you’re a high enough level. I didn’t pay attention, but did you notice what level he was?”

She blinked a few times. “That was a player? I thought we might’ve stumbled onto a quest meant for characters at a much higher level.”

Gary shook his head. “He’s a gamer.”

“Wow. Do you think he survived all of that?”

“Oh, yeah.”

“Probably.” She bit her lower lip, clearly musing something over. “Wind and fire. Man, that’s crazy.”

“You used yours some.”

"I had to. You needed me to. Olivia also did. I-I had to try."

“You did more than try. Are you okay?”

She kissed his cheek. “My mom’s at the door. I hate when she stops by unannounced. She knows I’m home, so I can’t blow her off. I have to go.”

“I thought you were going to go regardless.”

Nicoletta gave him a look that suggested she would’ve stayed longer if she could’ve. “Please don’t do anything rash,” she said.

He took her hand and cupped it against his cheek, relishing her soft touch, wishing her hand was the one touching him.

“I can’t make that promise.”

She pulled her hand free. “I know.”

Gary went to pull her close, to kiss her, but she had already logged off.

Now that he was alone with no one and nothing to distract him, the pain came rushing in. As much as he wanted to get food, he didn’t have the energy to walk over there. He had to drag himself along to reach the stables, and he leaned against the wall as he slumped to the ground.

His eyes were just beginning to close when faint footsteps sounded. He cracked open his eyes to see Haru.

“Do you have any news for me?” Gary asked, not bothering to feel any sense of hope. All he could feel was extreme fatigue, body aches, and pain.

“Yes, unfortunately.” The Japanese man paused before him, feet shoulder-width apart, his hands clasped behind his back.

“Bad news, I take it.”

Haru nodded once, the movement direct and crisp. “I have come to warn you.”

Gary’s mind was swimming. Random thoughts came together in his mind, and he blurted out,
