I think the girl is leaning in too hard too fast... dude wouldn't push too far just because of one incident now, and he doesn't enough about her to know how she sees it. Anyway, looking forward to this.
Quite a confusing chapter, tbh - nowhere it is explicitly stated that he was transported into the game and into the past. (Summary doesn't count). Also Raynos and Leinos is used interchangeably once. The setup is rather poorly done.
