After Alex vanished, the mysterious figure stood there, staring at the spot where Alex had been a few seconds before.
"I did what I could for now; it's up to you, Alex," he said, his gaze fixed on the spot where Alex had been.
"Sigh... but he still has one problem, which will undoubtedly fade with time."
Alex isn't yet mature enough and has a soft heart and mind. Future events may cause things to change, but for the time being, Alex only needs time to develop and learn. People's personalities aren't altered by time; rather, it just reveals who they really are!
Displaying a faint smile, he said, "I'm excited to see what happens next."
"Crackkk"
"Huh!" Suddenly, the area around the mysterious figure began to vibrate and shake with tremendous force.
"Time up..." He spoke in a deep, quiet tone, as if the trembling had no effect on him. The space began to crack even more, and the place began to vanish into nothingness, taking with it all the collections of universes and worlds.
The figure's hands and right arm began to vanish along with his body. "I leave everything to you, Alex, and I hope you can achieve this dream that I couldn't fulfill."
"Good luck" From his mouth, he uttered one last sentence, which echoed in the place for a moment before it seemed to fade away with him into nothingness

Somewhere inside a luxurious room, a young man was lying peacefully on a bed with a peaceful expression on his face. His eyes were closed, and a soft smile rested on his lips as he was having a beautiful dream.
A middle-aged woman was seated next to him on a chair. Her two enormous peaks and S-shaped curves could be clearly seen in large portions of her lovely figure.
When she looked at the young man, her eyes sparkled with kindness and affection. A smile broke out on the woman's face as she stroked the young man's forehead.
"Dear, I am glad you're okay." She muttered with tenderness in her voice.
"If something happened to you, I would..." A tear fell from her red eyes as she thought of all the possibilities that could have occurred if something had gone wrong.
If something happens to him, she will never be able to forgive herself. Clearly, the woman was crying a lot and had only recently stopped; she was overwhelmed with emotions of guilt and regret, thinking that she could have done more to protect him.
"Mhm…"
"Huh?!"
The young man suddenly groaned, drawing the woman's attention to him as his brows moved slightly.
Alex opened his eyes and saw the familiar ceiling, which he remembered from his blurred memories.
Alex didn't know how much time had passed since he had passed out.
He looked blankly around his surroundings as if he had woken up from a long dream. His vision was blurry and painful, to the point where tears were coming from them, as his eyes hadn't seen light for a long time.
He attempted to stand up, but his body lacked the strength to do so. A slight cracking sound could be heard as he attempted to tilt his head.
Due to his coma, his muscles and bones had become rigid. In an effort to raise his hands, he felt his strength slowly but surely returning to them.
Although his vision improved, he was still experiencing a slight headache.
As he thought about getting up, a silhouette of a woman appeared in front of him. Seeing her beautiful face and curvy body, it didn't take long for him to recognize her.
Alina, his dear mother.
Seeing her, he couldn't hold his excitement, and Alex got up from the bed.
Alina had tears in her eyes. Her heart tore up, and she closed her mouth with her hand and shouted,
"Alex, you're awake?"
Her breathing hastened when she saw Alex looking at her with loving eyes.
What surprised her more was Alex's gaze. As far as she remembered, Alex had never shown her such a tender and affectionate look; his eyes were always wandering here and there, and his expression had never been so gentle.
"Yes, Mom, I am back," Alex spoke as tears of happiness came out of his eyes.
