Alex had passed out afterward. He was out cold for three hours and only woke up due to someone bothering him. When he woke up, he found a normal-looking young man who was completely average. He had an average facial structure, body, and even clothes. He looked worried about Alex and asked,

"How are you alright? You seem to be lost. Do you need help?"

"N-no, I'm fine. I just lost track of time."

"Oh, alright. Have a good day. I'll see you around."

The man seemed to leave, however, Alex was confused about why other people were here. He also noticed a basket full of herbs. From the information he had gotten, purgatory wasn't supposed to have any other people here. While he had known purgatory was composed of a single large level, it had trials one needed to complete to fully purify their soul. The first was called the Trial of Agony. Alex assumed that the pain he had felt not long ago was that trial. He quickly looked into the Page of Revelations and noticed it seemed to be just as confused as him as it was blank. While he waited for the page to reveal the new information, Alex began to explore. He first started heading in the direction the man he had seen earlier went. While he was walking, he decided to look at his status along with the title he had gained.

He looked at his status in satisfaction and felt he had acquired a good number of skills. He kept walking while experimenting with the skills he had just recently acquired. He had been traveling for over 3 hours when his Child of Night sub-ability to sense blood activated. He looked to his right and noticed a village was there. The village seemed to be doing well; however, the most interesting thing was he could see players. Alex was able to see players inside purgatory. While he didn't know what this meant, he had a bad feeling about it. He quickly put on his Robe of Scarlet and holstered his sword. He walked into the village, covering his face with the robe. He walked around unnoticed by both villagers and players. Eventually, he had found some answers from conversations among players.

"Hey, have you heard about this place?"

"You mean the area we're in? Yeah, I know it's purgatory."

"Mhm, however, I also heard this might be a new dimension's entrance."

"Huh? Are you sure?"

"Yeah! We could make a killing!"

"Hehe! S-should we keep it to ourselves, or should we tell the guild?"

"We have to tell the guild. If we don't, they would kill us."

"Y-yeah, I know. I was just joking."

"Alright, let's go report back."

The players had taken out a Dimensional Stone and used it. Alex had an extremely ugly expression at the moment. He had assumed other powers from different dimensions had been in contact with a few guilds. However, to think a different dimension had already found us. Luckily, they can't physically interfere with our dimension yet because of the protection and isolation benefits provided to new dimensions. Of course, Alex thought about why they were here. He already knew that this might happen, but to think it happened so fast. While infinite dimensions exist, only one of certain areas exists. One of these areas is purgatory, and these areas are shared among every dimension. Alex quickly left the village and hurriedly headed to his destination. He had to complete all the trials to get to the stone. He had already completed the Trial of Agony, and he now needed to do the second trial. The second trial is called the Trial of Empathy. Through the Page of Revelations, he knew the trial would be completed if he did something good. He decided to help the village by giving them something they lacked. Assuming they needed herbs to heal injured people or to cure any curses, then he could help them by healing them or curing them. He wanted to cast a wide spell by combining multiple spells; however, to do that, he needed a few materials. He went through the grass plains near the village and gathered a few herbs. He also gathered a few stones and placed them with a set of herbs around the village. He quickly went to the village and found the middle of the village. He held up his hands and cast a multitude of spells. These spells were Cure, Heal, and Purify. The spell itself took a massive amount of mana and concentration; however, it was worth it.

After he had cast his spell, a miracle began to happen!
