i think it means that the being with protection is under a stroger being who gave it it's blessing i also think that it affects the growth and path that the the being with protection takes as a form of guidance and also grants them some skills like the black lightning that rimuru got from veldora but some people think that rimuru got that from eating veldora (who was sealed with Infinite Prison by the way) you could see how the guidance work when rimuru evolved and became independent from veldora and he himself grants great demon lord blessing to his subordinates where some of them followed his bath and others followed veldora and Velgrynd examples are Diablo who followed rimuru himself , Benimaru who followed velgrynd and finally Zegion who followed veldora. (oh I should add for those who think that rimuru became strong because he ate veldora that veldora at that time had zero magic EP which means eating him is like eating egg shells )
