Subaru:  “—! Not the time to say that! Where’s Emilia? !” Setting aside his momentary daze, Subaru surveyed the area, desperately striving to grasp the situation. Trees suggestive of being deep in a forest stood left, right, and center around him. Moss and grasses stretched unhindered at his feet, without the faintest trace of human passage.

Subaru:  “Cheek… Ow, it hurts when I pinch! Meaning this isn’t a dream…!” Ruling out the choice of avoiding reality, Subaru largely grasped just what had happened to him. It was the shining crystal in his hand. The powerful light that had shone until just prior had already vanished, but there was no way it was unrelated to his circumstance. It was probably the blue, shining crystal that was the cause to begin with.

Subaru:  “—Teleportation. Kinda like Beatrice’s Passage.” The mechanism was unclear, but Subaru, having been shifted by similar incantations in the past, made an educated guess. He’d experienced Passage a number of times during his dealings with Beatrice. The problems were the reason and purpose behind the shift, and how to rendezvous with Emilia and the others.

Subaru:  “Plus, Emilia was on the floor when I left. I’ve gotta get back ASAP…!” If the shift was from something similar to Passage, Subaru’s jump couldn’t have been that far. At the very least, it ought not to have been to some far-flung place on a map of the world. At the very least, he must be in the same forest.

Subaru:  “I mean, it was all Beatrice could do to send me as far as Earlham Village. There’s no way this rock has enough power to send me farther than that.” Coming to that conclusion, Subaru smoldered with impatience as he gazed down at the crystal in his palm. The crystal had been the cause of the shift.
