Truen had to leave to oversee New Moon Village's trade with some of the clients Mitchnew found in Smargdas. Zero didn't join him. Instead, he left his clones in the pool to recover his mana while trying to activate more Parallel Minds so that they could wake Wii up. Mii recently recovered all her functions in the mindscape and was working hard to clear all the outstanding work with Lily's help who finally returned in tears when she received Zero's system summon.
He was finally able to leave Half Moon Village for a while for the meeting with Mammon and Ruth but he never thought that his combat teacher would make such an arrangement.
"You know, I thought that we would be going to Finest Taste for such meetings as per tradition," he said. "What happened?"
Ruth didn't look apologetic in the slightest and Zero frowned at the room's decoration. Sure, this might be VVIP treatment but is the hospital really the best place for an important meeting with a Demon Lord?
