Kamiyagawa shook his left hand, letting the slender red rope on his wrist flutter out.
It seems the other candidate for becoming a "Shaman" refers to Hotaru.
"The Lord of Demons and Gods and the Shrine Maiden share power, complementing each other..." Kamiya tried to analyze the meaning behind Suzuhiko-hime's words in his mind.
So, part of the Shrine Maiden's purpose is to help the Lord of Demons and Gods become stronger?
Abe no Seimei wasn't the first choice to become the Lord.
Something unexpected happened on Ashiya Dōman's side, leading Seimei to be appointed in times of emergency. So Seimei was able to ascend to the position of the Lord of Demons and Gods in a relatively short period, perhaps because his Shrine Maiden, Ame-no-Uzume, shared her power with him?
"If things proceed step by step and Suzuhiko-hime becomes my Shaman, then after reaching the level of an Arajin, my power should increase rapidly, right?" Kamiyagawa thought.
