It's not like he could blame her. A lot of people were likely in the same sort of situation, "newbies" like himself. Either they knew how this world worked and could offer advice, or they couldn't and were trying to help anyway - but the arena was very dangerous. Anyone, or anything, could come storming in at any point to take out a couple easy targets. She seemed nice enough to not deserve a fate like that.
"That's okay," Jeremy answers, lowering his gaze because that shadow (that's not really there but is still unsettling) is towering behind her now and if he doesn't look at it, maybe it'll go away. As for her, he doesn't want to be responsible for her lagging behind and getting hurt. "You sh-should go ... before something else h-happens."
