After they escaped from the venue and large crowd, Hermes and Alex crossed paths with the Boddhisatva, Padmapani.
When the monk saw Alex, he lightly bowed.
"Oh, hello," Alex greeted the monk.
"Sir Alex, have you made a verdict on the matter I have discussed with you?" Padmapani politely asked him.
'What matter? Ah, the meeting with Buddha...'
Truthfully, Alex did not wish to meet him before, but he had a change of heart.
The Buddha promised to mediate conflicts between the gods, yet he didn't intervene when Indra attacked them and heavily harmed Hermes.
'I need to confront him about it...'
"Bodhisattva Padmapani, I have decided to accept your invite," Alex nodded.
The monk happily cocked his head, and informed them, "I will be departing tomorrow, would that align with your schedules, sirs?"
"Hermes, we don't have anything left to do here, do we?" Alex turned sideways at Hermes.
Hermes shook his head.
