What does the return keyword do in a void method in Java?

Question

I\'m looking at a path finding tutorial and I noticed a return statement inside a void method (class PathTest, line 126):

See this example, you want to add to the list conditionally. Without the word "return", all ifs will be executed and add to the ArrayList!

    Arraylist list =  new ArrayList<>();

    public void addingToTheList() {

    if(isSunday()) {
        list.add("Pray today")
        return;
    }

    if(isMonday()) {
        list.add("Work today"
        return;
    }

    if(isTuesday()) {
        list.add("Tr today")
        return;
    }
}
