As warned by Farasha, Jin had decided to take down the Mutated Undead Warriors with as little Maqi as possible. Deriving more on swordplay and ensuring that he applied the principles of killing one at a time and not injuring the others so as to not wake Spartakus up because he finally found a worthy challenger.
He also ensured that there was at least a thirty second gap time between each kill even though more and more Wang Liangs are coming out to play. Jin maintained his composure and fought with each one of them on equal footing.
Eventually, Diego's Uber came and saw that Jin was fighting in the street alone. The Uber Driver saw what was happening and asked if the old man wished to come back into the car and escape the scene. Diego smiled and rejected the offer as he conjured up a barrier blocking visuals and sound, camouflaging the scene almost immediately.
It was then the Uber Driver noted that this was clearly a fight that was not within the realms of a normal man like him. "All the best." The Uber Driver said as he drove away.
"Do you need help, young one? It seems like you are struggling." Diego asked as he powered up his miniature cross that was hanging around his neck.
"No. And please, do not use any powers if you can." Jin said as he evaded one more and killed another.
"Are you training yourself or are you toying with them?" Diego stopped his incantation as per Jin's request.
"None. It is best to fight without much power. I can explain to you later." Jin said and Diego got even more curious than ever.
"But you are not in a pinch. Besides, you owe me an explanation for not coming to intervene. I understand if you wish to understand the enemy but not even coming to fight is another thing altogether. Are you happy to see fellow Demon Exorcists die?"
"No," Jin said as he shoved one of the Mutated Undead Warriors away and waited for a while more before killing it. "From my own research, I have concluded that a Void Being stays in the Colosseum."
"A …what?" Diego could not believe his ears.
"A Void Being. Do not act dumb, you definitely know about them."
"No, I do know about them, but I could not fathom that a Void Being stays in the Colosseum."
"Well, that's my deduction from the research I had derived before reaching here. As much as I do not want my research to be the basis of my actions, I also do not wish to risk angering the Void Being to emerge out of his abode and surface to this particular world."
"Jin, there's another tear incoming near my current location," Lian said and Jin repeated the same thing to Diego.
"Can you handle it, Lian? The surveillance can be left to the birds. Remember as little chi as possible. Just as how you manipulated my incoming chi and broke it down to small bits for consumption."
"Looks like even if I say no, it's a no to my no," Lian said as she stood up and stretched a little. "Okay, Boss. I will do my best. Won't let you down."
"You better, foxes under my command are considered to be the strongest few creatures ever known. Do not sully their reputation." Jin replied and Diego could hear what he was saying but did not understand a single thing. Birds? Foxes? Is Jin a Beastmaster of some sort?
"I would like to grasp a little more of the situation. It seems like you have a better understanding of this entire thing than the whole of Italian and Vatican Demon Exorcists combined." Diego said.
"Like I said, it's just theory with no facts to back it up. I could not give you rumours and have you acting on them. Can I?" Jin said as he once again dodged, low kicked one of them and killed the other. It was still a surprise that none of them were moving towards Diego.
"Then let me listen to this theory of yours."
"Fine." Jin went back to dodging all of them as much as he could and even jumped up to a building before moving to back down, not killing any one of them at all. He was doing everything he could while trying to think of a summary that would suit the Italian's Head.
"The Void Being is rumoured to enter our world if we exercise too much power against its minions. It would not have been disturbed if it is not for these Wang Liangs tearing the dimension fabric against the Void Beings and ours. However, Wang Liangs are not supposed to be this powerful, able to cut through the dimensional tear into the Void Being's plane. The fact that these are obviously Wang Liangs which originated from our country. Which means that they had been transported here and someone gave them a shortcut into the Void Being's plane."
"In short, indirect Sabotage or terrorism?" Diego asked but Jin shrugged his shoulders in front of him before continuing his dance and then killing them.
"That is what I deduced. Whether it's true or not, it is left to be investigated and answered. It could be a series of extreme coincidences that allowed the Wang Liangs to enable a dimension tear into the Void Being's plane."
"So, the reason for you not giving us the tip earlier is so that we do not overpower their minions? Until it's a pyrrhic draw?" Diego asked and Jin kept quiet for he knew that any answer he gave would not soothe the broken heart.
"I cannot confirm nor deny that particular statement," Jin said as he danced around once again and Diego nodded his head. He could see that his Demon Exorcists were clearly not at the same level as Jin and even the Vatican Elites could not even solo these many Y'm-bhi by themselves. For him to kill these many and not emit much chi showed that there was a high level of competency in not only his swordplay but experience fighting against these many monsters.
Diego understood that if given such information early, all of his Exorcists would definitely go full power to kill these warriors and might inadvertently wake up the rumoured Void Being.
