Chapter 400: Veronica

Everything happened for a reason.

Alexander understood that after his journey to Purgatory, mainly after seeing the deaths of his mother's friends and sisters and his father's beloveds and others. He saw many deaths and couldn't do anything other than watch.

Worlds were also black and white.

The little girl before him was one of many kids that suffered, and there were many people much older than her facing injustice and other problems. Naturally, the same went for people living good lives.

Alex always cared about people close to his heart, so he had an easier time accepting such a truth. He was one of the people from his friend's circle that had accepted Josh's death the first and the easiest.

He helped others cope with that loss, too.

Because of his principles and a personality unsuitable for any heroic deeds, Alex took that truth close to his heart, treading on two worlds like most people despite a significant power dwelling within him.
