Chapter 14
Jerome's P.O.V
I slice an mob in half with my axe and it turns into particles. We all continue running. I still don't see Seto. We don't have much time left. We can't leave him behind, I'm not allowing that. I look ahead seeing the temple that Seto was talking about. I look at Rob and Lachlan as we stop.
"We should go back for him." I said.
"Are you insane? Did you see that thing he is fighting?" Lachlan asks turning to me.
"I left Seto behind in the real world already Lachlan! I'm not doing it again!" I yelled. I turn around and run back towards where Seto was.
Seto's P.O.V
I pull on my scythe cutting it into the Reim's wing. It screeches and it's tail hits me flinging me to the side. I crash into the ground and lay there. I see my health bar go down more, it it's the yellow zone. My eyes widen at that. I've taken so many hits from this thing that I lost count after twenty-three. I sit up. My eyes glow.
"H-Heal." I said sort of shaky. My health bar regains points and goes up into the green yet again. I look around for my scythe. Where is it? I try to stand up by my legs give in and I collapse to the ground. I groan and grip the grass in my fists. I pant. I'm exhausted. I can't keep this up. My entire body is so sore. The Reim looks down at me. I look at it, my eyes widen. I don't want to be eaten alive. It traps me with its talon around me. I hear a loud snap and I look under the Reim seeing that it smashed my scythe. Damnit! I turn onto my belly and try to get away but it sinks it's teeth into my left leg making me scream and my health bar go down rapidly. Unbearable amounts of pain shoot up my leg and through my body. I scream again.
"No! Seto!" A voice yelled in the distance. The Reim drags me by my leg against the ground. I see my health bar turn yellow and slowlygo back to green, it's gonna take a lot to make my health bar hit zero and that's what scares me. All the pain cause the Reim is just gona eat me alive. It picks me up off the ground with my leg in its mouth. Then that's when things become a blur. I feel myself hit the ground and arms grab me dragging me away but I slip into darkness before I could what's happened.
Rob's P.O.V
"He's in the yellow zone." Lachlan said. I lay Seto down on his back. He's unconscious too. "His's regeneration skill is keeping him from the red zone." I look at his leg.
"Go help Jerome. I'll try to bind his leg." I said. Lachlan nods and goes other to help Jerome. I swipe my hand to look at my inventory. What do I have that can help him. Um...healing crystals. Seto gave me theses, maybe they do something. I select them and they appear in my hand. I fave it towards Seto. "Heal." Nothing happens. Oh crap how do you use theses?! His leg isn't bleeding, if this wasn't a game he probably would have died from blood loss. I look at the crystals. "Sh*t. Okay not that." I put the crystals down. I swipe my hand again opening my inventory. I have some cloth, but will that even do anything? I take it out anyway. I look at his leg seeing deep cuts in his thigh right near his knee. I put the cloth under his knee and then on the cuts. I wrap the cloth around till I can't around and then I tie it tight. I don't even know if that will do anything for him, I don't know how to work my crystals so this is all I got. I hear him take a deep breathe suddenly and I look at him. He sits up.
"Are you okay?" I ask. He looks at what I did. "I don't know how to work those crystals, so that's the best I got.
"Crystals. Where are they?" He asks me. I hand him one. He grips it in his hand. "Regen." The crystal turns into particles and I see his health bar replenish.
"Does that help your leg?" I ask. Seto shakes his head.
"No I used it to heal my back. My leg will have to wait." He said. Jerome and Lachlan comes over to us.
"You already killed it?" I asked in disbelief. I stnad up. Jerome shakes his head.
"It despawned." Jerome said. He kneels down in front of Seto. "How are you doing? Can you stand?"
"Barely." Seto said.
"I'll help him walk." I said suddenly. They look at me.
"Okay. Let's go. We know the way. Try not to lose us Rob." Lachlan said. Jerome stands up. I put Seto's arm around my shoulders and put my arm around his waist. I get him up on his feet. He leans against me a little. We start walking. Yeah he wouldn't be able to walk himself, he's having trouble even with my helping him.
After a few minutes of walking I finally notice that Jerome has Seto's broken scythe in his hand.
"Can this be fixed?" Jerome asks Seto.
"Yeah." Seto said.
"I'll hold on to it till you can walk again by yourself." Jerome said. Okay I'll admit, I wasn't really gonna come back for Seto. He told us to listen to him and he told us to run. "And one more thing Seto." I look at Jerome.
"W-What?" Seto asks.
"You are coming back with us. Back to the real world, so stop trying to basically commit suicide." Jerome said sounding serious. I feel Seto tense up at that.
"A-Actually Jerome I have something to tell you. I can't-"
"There is it!" Lachlan yelled. We all look ahead seeing the temple in the mountain
"We're almost there." Jerome said. I look at Seto who isn't looking at the temple.
"What were you gonna say?" I ask him. He looks at me.
"It's nothing important." Seto said.
