"This does not make any sense at all," Jin said as he was at the side listening to the entire conversation.
"Of course, it does not make any sense." Siddhartha Buddha sighed as he stared at Vishnu for a moment before returning his gaze back to Jin.
"Oh, and I did tell Buddha about my situation with you. He is the only few …erm maybe the only one within the Dashavatara that I could trust with my secrets." Vishnu said and his avatar merely nodded his head in silence.
"Um… then I guess it does make some sense now that I did not have to pretend." Jin did not entirely understand the situation but it felt like he had incidentally entered into a minefield without him knowing.
"Fine, throw me the story then. It's not like it is going to change the situation now that we know that you might be involved in this entire bullshit that I am in." Jin's words were crude but it was reflective of the situation he was in.
"Do you wish to make a guess why the demons were summoned or the Celestials had been infused into the soldiers?" Vishnu chuckled as if wanting to give a chance to see if Jin was up to par in deducing with the limited amount of information that he had.
"Not really. But judging from the way how Siddhartha Buddha had mentioned and considering that you are the Hindu Pantheon's god of Preservation, I can only derive that you are either doing this or making people do this so that to preserve the balance of the world or some sort." Jin casually remarked not knowing whether whatever he said would be correct or not.
"And if that's the case, it would make more sense if you suddenly come to visit the person who had potentially or may potentially upset this balance. It's just that this said person had somehow conveniently set up an isolation barrier to bar itself away from the entire world that you decided he is not too much of a threat. Or maybe he is a threat and because he had put himself in an isolation barrier, it is possible that its easier for you to annihilate the said person and his followers."
"But what you did not expect was that this said person had been aiming to target the Celestials for some time now and developed an anti Celestial serum which eventually caused your downfall. Not to mention, you are ironically now in control by the said person, you decided that it might actually be better because said person can hide you from the Celestials. Maybe because the way of preserving had been too ehhh unorthodox? Not sure what's the word."
"Wow, for a theorist, you sure are shameless," Vishnu remarked. "Do you think that everything is involved all around you?""For the past few years, it is sadly the case. I had been thrown in so many dire situations and I had been fixing them for the weak and underdogs-wait." Jin suddenly realised something. Although this was even more far fetched than the current deduction that he had.
"Why does it feel like I have been doing the job of preservation for the past few worlds? Helping the underdogs while pushing the innovation and enabling their survival to preserve their world."
"Looks like someone is getting it." Siddhartha Buddha replied and that sentence alone confused Jin even further.
"I am more surprised that he could actually deduce the surface level of our strategy. Although I admit that me being captured by him was something out of the plan." Vishnu shrugged his shoulders.
"You are merely playing with fire with that kind of attitude, Lord Vishnu. There is no way the other gods would accept that when you directly interfere with this human's trial."
"Huh?" Jin's mind went blank not sure how to process that so called confirmation.

"Your System would have already known this but held its bargain to keep this quiet. This whole trial thing was actually a farce. I had long known of your deeds in the Celestial Plane because of the effort you made in the other worlds and this was made more prominent when your Bellators came into the Celestial Plane to steal your body back."
"You could say that the other gods of Preservation and I had decided to put some interest in you and allowed your little two friends to go through the Celestial Plane mostly unnoticed in order to get your body back. One could even say that we also overlook the fact that your minions also killed the Celestials who tried to steal your body. In fact, do you even know the reason why those Celestials even came for you in the first place?"
Jin unknowingly and instinctively shook his head. He thought the Celestials were just as flicker as Half Ghoul Lord Derek made them out. So he assumed the same for the Celestials that came in order to stop him. Never did he realise that Jin had been taking a lot of attention within the Celestial Planes.
"Erm so yeah. Long story made short, We managed to communicate a deal with Duke Baal as well as other gods of preservation into making you go through this entire trial erm thing. Erm, like Ea, Nu Wa, Hestia and a few others which I believe you will never hear before. They rather keep it to themselves."
Otherwise, why do you think my Celestials would come to a consensus to give you the chance to build a dungeon supplier store in the Celestial Plane? Do YOU honestly think that I will not attempt to resist your powers and seal?"
Only when Vishnu put it that way, it does feel like everything had been conveniently placed to test Jin and even provide Jin a suitable reward. And now that Jin realised that the King of Ress was merely there for the ride, it felt as if there was an external motive for everything they had done.
