"The Witch of the Divine Race."
"Huh?"
Rin was stunned and asked in confusion, "Divine Race?"
"Yes."
Violet said, "A Hime Miko is a servant of the gods."
The prototype of the Hime Miko profession originated from the myth of Amano-Iwato.
Legend has it that Susanoo was wild and unpredictable. Not only did he fail to properly govern his own territory, he also lingered in his sister's Takamagahara.
Not only did he refuse to leave, he also repeatedly caused trouble.
Amaterasu Omikami, in a fit of anger, hid in Amano-Iwato and refused to come out.
The world instantly plunged into endless darkness. Evil spirits gathered and disasters followed.
The eight million gods tried every possible method but could not persuade Amaterasu Omikami to come out. Finally, Ame-no-Uzume-no-Mikoto stood on an overturned wooden barrel and danced, baring her chest and breasts, naked from the waist up, with her clothes hanging to her private parts, causing the surrounding gods to cheer endlessly.
Amaterasu Omikami curiously peeked out of the cave to watch. She was suddenly pulled out by Ame-no-Tajikarao-no-Kami, who had been ambushed nearby. From then on, the world regained its light.
Ame-no-Uzume-no-Mikoto's act of dancing to invite Amaterasu Omikami out was regarded as a ritual to invite the gods. The clothes she wore at the time later developed into Hime Miko attire, and the dance she performed developed into Kagura dance. Therefore, many people believe that Ame-no-Uzume-no-Mikoto is the origin of the Hime Miko.
Hime Miko, also known as Goshenko, are spokespersons for the gods. They can also use their bodies as vessels for divine descent, borrowing the divine power of the gods they worship.
In summary, Yuri successfully evolved from a Hime Miko into a Hime Witch, which is a Witch of the Divine Race.
"I always feel that if the number of Witches increases, it will cause trouble."
Rin did not know if it was just an illusion, but he always had such a premonition.
Witches are the opposite of races.
Their existence is often closely related to negative emotions, energy, and concepts.
Sakura, Ilya, and now Yuri.
Perhaps it is fine now, but if their numbers increase in the future, if they cannot find a way to let them exert their power, Rin worries something might go wrong.
"Witches will cause races to degenerate."
Violet heard Rin's concern and explained, "But this is not entirely a bad thing. It is also a trial for various races."
Only those with firm resolve can resist the Witch's temptation.
As for those who fall...
Rin would not do anything to them. After all, they are all his subordinates.
At worst, he would create a special hell or underworld for them to work in.
He could even accept Primordial monsters like Carrera and Ultima.
Could those fallen ones be more evil and tyrannical than monsters?
"In that case, can I have them help me screen outsiders?"
Rin's idea was that if he wanted to continue expanding his subordinates in the future, he could first send out corresponding Witches to assess people from other worlds.
Only those who could pass the Witch's assessment would be qualified to join Rin's command and become part of the Monster Nation.
"Hmm, that's a good idea."
Violet said, "But it is still early. Sakura and Ilya have not yet grown up. However, Yuri can be allowed to try first."
"I will tell her later."
After finishing his observation and thoughts on Yuri, Rin turned his gaze to Sita on the other side.
Princess with Glass Eyes' transformation was clearly much greater than Yuri's.

[Sita]
Race: Earth Mother Goddess
Magicules: 4.2 million EP
Ultimate Skill: Lord of Mediation, Kukurihime-no-kami (Mid-tier Ultimate)
[Lord of Mediation]
The direction of this Ultimate Skill involves marriage and reconciliation in the emotional domain. It can connect life and death and can also maintain the balance of all things.
---
It is a rather good Mid-tier Ultimate Skill.
In addition, Rin was not surprised that Sita would awaken such an Ultimate Skill.
Because in the Campione World, Princess with Glass Eyes, in addition to her identity as Sita, was also Kukurihime-no-kami, the ancestral Hime Miko of Japan.
It needs to be clarified here.
The ancestral Hime Miko is not a Hime Miko.
She was simply the first goddess who mediated the conflict between humans and gods.
This act was regarded as the origin of the Hime Miko's duties.
Ame-no-Uzume-no-Mikoto is the origin of the Hime Miko profession, while Kukurihime-no-kami is the origin of the Hime Miko's duties. The two are not the same concept.
Therefore, she would not become a Witch like Yuri, but a genuine true god.
Rin did not know much about the god Kukurihime-no-kami.
He only remembered that in Japanese mythology, after Izanagi and Izanami fell out with each other, it was this goddess who came forward to resolve their grievances and mediate the conflict between Takamagahara and the Underworld.
However, what Kukurihime-no-kami specifically said is not recorded in mythology.
In addition, Kukurihime-no-kami was also Amaterasu's foster mother and her aunt.
From this, one can see the status and mystery of this goddess in Japanese mythology.
"Such powerful strength..."
"It is even stronger than my peak state."
Princess with Glass Eyes felt the changes in her body, and she had an urge to cry.
How long has it been?
How many years have passed since she fell from an Earth Mother Goddess to a God Ancestor?
"Thank you, Rin."
Princess with Glass Eyes sincerely thanked Rin, grateful that he restored her divine rank.
"I told you, it is a meeting gift."
Rin smiled gently. He fulfilled his promise and also felt Princess with Glass Eyes' desire to integrate. "From now on, I will call you Sita."
"Alright, so is there anything I can do?"
"Since I have joined your command, if I do nothing, it really makes me uneasy."
"Work?"
"Yes."
"Anything is fine. Please let me repay your kindness a little."
"Hmm..."
Rin thought for a moment and found a very suitable position for her.
"Then come and help me maintain harmony among the subordinates."
The task Rin gave Sita was similar to a super large neighborhood committee, specifically dealing with conflicts and disputes among internal subordinates.
This job was completely within Sita's comfort zone.
She possessed a level of spiritual vision that was considered T0-tier even throughout the Campione World.
This endowed Sita with the power to see through the causality of events at a glance.
In addition, she could perceive each other's emotions, grasp hidden secrets, and thus make the best judgments.
