You've misunderstood.Michael was evolving in that last scene, no doubt. Not only is he talking to the 2nd, his eye is back.
The cliffhanger in question is what will actually happen after he evolves. I see some possibilities:
1- He goes back to the group and fights Danu (though with Aos there it probably won't be necessary).
2- The 2nd "kidnaps" him and makes him go on a sort of monster killing bootcamp to make up for his failure.
3- Michael himself chooses to remain in the monster world in order to become stronger.
Although I would love for the group to remain as it is, Michael may become too powerful for the plot to handle. Especially with the gang going back to the real world, where there are dead monsters, superhumans and humans everywhere. Remember that his power capacity is not capped anymore, so his body has the potential to become as strong as his blade was in this update (in other words, broken as fuck). Of course, I'm not saying he will reach Captain or even Liutenant levels of power, but he WILL outshine every single character in the friend group. So, unless he follows his own path after returning to Earth, I think he will most likely stay in the monster world and come back later as an enemy.
Level 3 removing the power capacity cap refers to the power stat. Michael's physical strength isn't going to increase in accordance to the amount of energy he absorbs, only with the growth of his power.
