Not long after the earthquake subsided, from the other end of the corridor came a series of rapid "click-clack" sounds, as if someone was quick-stepping in high heels.
Who could be so devoid of elegance?
A Dream Demon with sluggish movements frowned, curiously glancing out the window.
The moment she saw that face, she immediately retracted her neck and sat properly back at her workstation.
Mia Padric!
No wonder!
The clicking sound was so rhythmic, like the beat of a symphony... she couldn't help but hum along.
Unaware of what her colleagues were saying behind her back, Mia's mind was in turmoil as she barged aggressively into the corridor outside the Transmission Room, heading straight for the Teleportation Array.
Demons waiting outside in the corridor made way for her, all with faces as if they'd seen a ghost. Even when cut in line, they didn't dare express any displeasure.
"Miss Mia! Miss Mia—!"
