I know about Volume 19 being cradle of the moon, but is there any word on what the ending of Volume 18 meant by saying, "Kirito will return?" Will that be featured in Volume 20? I'm also being told that there will be no Volume 20, but why wouldn't there be since the author put in Volume 18, Kirito will return?

Thank you to those who can give me the answers!
