Coming to the topic of Eris’ return in the Mushoku Tensei Season 3, we have to know why she left in the first place. After developing a serious inferiority complex, thanks to Rudeus and his powers, Eris leaves him to train at the Sword Sanctum. The event was triggered after Rudeus’ fight with Orsted, back in Season 1 Part 2.

After training in the Sword Sanctum, Eris returns to the series in Season 3. Not only does she return to Rudeus, but she also saves him from Orsted and becomes his third wife after Sylvie and Roxie. That being said, if you are wondering exactly when she is returning, the answer is “very early” – she will likely return in Episode 1 or within the first couple of episodes.
