"So, how long will you be away this time around?" Kent asked, standing beside Uncle Drew, who was ready to head back to the Underworld.
For now, he is going to the underworld. After he is done with his business there, he will go back to Hell, where he will create more Hell demons.
The battle in Fedora had been a good harvest for him.
He managed to secure 21 beasts that he could turn into Hell demons—17 Transcendents and 4 Ascension-stage beasts.
This meant that if what happened last time were to repeat itself, he would return with 17 Ascension-stage Hell demons and 4 Sovereign-stage Hell demons.
That is a force one could not look down on. Having just a single sovereign under your command will set you at the peak, and he will get 4.
However, Kent knew from Uncle Drew's recount that the process wasn't all rainbows and sunshine, so he asked when he would return.
That way, he would know what to do and what not to do in his absence.
