"I am Ashiya Suketomo, the exorcist from Harima, and the head of the Ashiya family of Rokudo."
"Oh, Mr. Ashiya, are you an elder of the Demon Sealing Lord? You look very young."
Li Pan sipped his drink while surfing the internet, seeking information from the enthusiastic netizens about the Ashiya clan.
This clan was a local mage lineage, anciently known as Onmyoji, exorcists, similar to priests, shamans, and Taoists, who were in charge of various sacrificial rituals. They operated much like a company, managing and suppressing all sorts of gods, ghosts, and odd entities. Later, when Takamanohara rose to power, they also served as magical consultants, assisting the Imperial Courtiers and participating in the suppression and sealing of Demon Gods around the area.
