This time, the Crystal Shoes landed in the attic at home, and Dorothy, who was waiting for Shard's return at home, immediately heard a heavy sound coming from the attic.
When she and the curious Mia followed her up to the attic, they saw Shard lying on the floor like a drowning fish, his trembling hand bringing a pink essence bottle to his lips:
"Oh, Shard, what's wrong with you!"
The teleportation function of the "Cinderella" Maze Lock not only consumes more Spirit the further the distance but also consumes less Spirit the closer it is to midnight. And it was 11:53 PM, arguably the least suitable time in a day to use this Arcane Technique.
Dorothy quickly understood Shard's predicament. After helping him sit up, she carefully fed him some of the pink essence. Of course, once Shard recovered, he asked Dorothy to print those hundreds of pages of documents he had noted down onto film.
