Chapter 19: Moments
He next day, after school...
Caleb: "(deep breath) I can do this..."
Caleb is currently darting out of the school, not even talking with the others before leaving.
Caleb: "A message?"
Caleb checks the guild chat to find a message from Yukiko.
Caleb: "Truth, that's where we'll meet up."
Caleb has just arrived at a login.
Caleb: "Time to go."
Caleb heads for a scanner room.
Caleb: "I'll see you there."
Caleb logs in.
Meanwhile...
Aegis: "(blankly) Walker has found the files."
Austin: "(blankly) We don't have much time left."
They're currently in the setting sun of the Truth server.
Both: "(blankly) He doesn't know yet."
Meanwhile...
Caleb: "It's connected to Delta."
Caleb has arrived in Delta's square, with the mirror in front of him.
Caleb: "(deep breath) I'm heading over."
Caleb steps through, arriving in a town in a permanent sunset and Yukiko just ahead.
Yukiko: "Caleb!"
Caleb hurries to join her.
Caleb: "Where are we heading?"
Yukiko points southeast.
Yukiko: "There's a nice grinding spot over there."
Caleb: "A-Alright."
They hurry in that direction.
Meanwhile...
Walker: "(typing) And there."
Walker has just uploaded a program to the Knights ID Cards.
Walker: "Took a bit of precious time, but they've got RLA in their arsenal now."
Meanwhile...
Caleb: "(evading) On your right!"
They are currently in a pit filled to the brim with rabid wolves.
Yukiko: "(roundhouse kicks) Thanks!"
They've both already gained a Lv.
Caleb: "Take this!"
Thorn based arrows erupt from the ground, tangling several wolves inside.
Caleb: "Yukiko!"
Yukiko's fist smashes right through all of them.
Yukiko: "Tempest Knuckle!"
They've just gained another Lv.
Caleb: "(breathing heavily) Nice..."
The area has been cleaned out for the day.
Yukiko: "(exhausted) Break?"
Caleb climbs out and helps Yukiko out.
Caleb: "(exhausted) Sure..."
The two find a large rock a bit of a ways away from the pit, sitting on top and looking at the sunset.
Caleb: "(in awe) I-It's beautiful..."
Yukiko: "Yeah..."
Yukiko puts her hand on top of Caleb's.
Caleb: "(blushing) U-Uh..."
Caleb adjusts his hand so that they're holding hands.
Yukiko: "(blushing) U-Um..."
They look each other in the eyes.
Both: "(blushing) U-Um..."
They look back at the sunset.
Yukiko: "(blushing) Caleb I..."
Caleb: "(blushing) ... like you too."
The grip gets tighter.
Yukiko: "(relieved) Th-Thank god..."
Little do they know...
Walker: "(awkwardly) Uh..."
Walker was keeping an eye on the two before witnessing the moment.
Walker: "(awkwardly) I'll just get back to work."
