After releasing all the yokai from the self-destruction seals, Natsuko sighs and takes a breather.

“Now I think there would be no problem in disclosing what I was talking about earlier.” Says Makimi.

“What?”

“I was helping you on one condition remember?”

“And we thought that was If we told you the info we had after you freed us… wasn’t it?” says one of the yokai innocently.

Makimi looks at them and nods her head.

“No… You’re completely wrong about that young yokai… You see…” says Makimi while getting up and continues, “Humans are fickle creatures and aren’t as kind as you think they are… You’re gonna have to work as our family’s special info force from now on.”

“WHY?!”

“You guys aren’t in a position to decline it you know.”

“But…” say the yokai and think about it for a few minutes.

After a few minutes one of the yokai breaks the silence and says-

“But! We are in position to make demands for our livelihood.”

“Ah… Yes, I forgot to mention that… Every time you guys bring m

  • The Unprecedented Yokai Hunter    The Beginning

    All of us might have heard of stories, rumours or even myths from here and there. Some might be affiliated with demons, while some with spirits. Some of you might believe in these ‘stories’, while some of you may not. However, there is something about this concept that everyone must understand, which is their existence. These monsters or spirits from myths are alive for a purpose but not all can see them. The few who can see them and interact with them are called the Cast. The ones who make contracts with spirits after summoning them are the Off-Cast. Finally, the Cast who decides to hunt these creatures based off the miasma they emit are called hunters/ pursuants. The hunters have their own ranks in the ‘Yokai’ realm, which is similar to ‘the underground’. They are paid for every ‘Yokai’ they hunt. The ranks of these ‘Yokai’ start from Folklore followed by grades such as C, B, A. Altho

    He finishes eating and by that time, the bell rings again. So, he gets up and says-“Alright! I’ll do it too!” and he heads for his classroom. He knew which class he was going to be since there were spirits roaming around and he asked them for directions. When he reaches his classroom, he sees some Americans walking up the stairs. He ignores them and enters his class.“Oh… Cursed boy is here!” says one of the boys and everyone’s attention is turned to Akihiko. He then sees Ayame sitting in a corner and reading something while Mitsuru was talking to some other people in the classroom. He takes the empty seat at the furthest end of the classroom and just stares at his desk. He sees a weird insect like spirit. He tries to push it off the table but was not able to. While he was trying to flick the insect like thing

    Coming back to why Akihiko was called a cursed child… At the age of eight, people other than his family considered Akihiko. He attended his classmate’s birthday party at their home. He was in middle school back then and studying was the least of his worries since he always stood first in everything.“Akki~!” says a small Mitsuru.“Oh! Mitsuru! I’ve come!”“Welcome. So, you’re the Akki boy that Mitsuru keeps talking about the whole day.”“Mom~!”“I’m just joking. Come on in.” says Mitsuru’s mother inviting Akihiko in their house. Yes, you all are thinking the right thing. It was Mitsuru’s 8th birthday. Ayame was there on that day too. Only thing was that she had not awakened yet. Akihiko was way more popular than he was now. He would always find some way to ente

    “Now then!” says Akihiko and dials the number that called on his phone when he was asleep.The phone rings.The number connects and then he hears a voice which he hadn’t heard before but was really familiar.“Hello. This is Ito.”“Ah, yes. I’m well-informed. You wouldn’t call back without knowing the details of the call… Or would you?”“Details? I just heard something interesting about what you told me.”“Hahaha. That’s the only reason. Are you sure…?” says the unknown voice and he feels a chill down his spine. Meanwhile, Ayame was getting ready for classes so she picks up her bag and says-“I’ll be leaving then. If anything just text me.”“Yeah, sure. See ya.” Says Akihiko anxiously. The front door closes and t

    After a few hours, he opens his eyes and jerks up realising that he had slept off while thinking about something which he couldn’t remember since he just woke up. He looks around and then sees Ayame studying on her table. He then asks in a daze- “W-who are you?! Have you finally come for me… demon!?” “What the hell is wrong with you? First, you sleep in my room and then you wake up to say stuff like that… What is wrong with you?” and she continues to study. Thinking about the phone call he got, he gets out of bed and says in a hurry- “I’m gonna go see a doctor. I completely forgot about my nose. I need to check it.” “In the middle of the night?” “Middle of the night? How long was I sleeping?” “When I returned and entered my room thinking nobody was there… I took off a layer of my clothes then realised you were there so I changed back…” “Haha. Alright I get that I slept for a fair amount of time. Thank you and sorry for making you worry… God!” Says Akihiko while leaving the

    Seirei looked like an innocent yet mature child with casual clothes on. He didn’t have anything different from other kids and looked completely normal. Yasuhiro looked mature and he wore a suit when he was in the office. He had normal features too which didn’t make him stand out from the rest of the people out there. Getting up from his seat immediately Akihiko asks Ayame while gripping on her shoulders- “Why did you follow me?!”“Why? I’ll do whatever I want to and you can’t judge me for that.” “No. You don’t understand.” “I do. Which is exactly why I followed you.” The other two just stare at them while they argued with each other and Seirei claps his hands directing both of their attention towards him. “Now, now. No lover’s quarrels in here since we never came here for a soap opera.” The both of them stare at him with disgust on hearing him say that and then they say- “There is definitely no way I’m in a relationship with her.” “There is definitely no way I’m

    “Do you know how to use a kitchen knife for battle?” “I know how to cook… So using the same principles…” “How are we even on the same page here?” Says Yasuhiro and sighs. Seirei was looking at a magazine with a lollipop in his mouth. Ayame confronts him and asks- “What is so interesting about the magazine?” “This magazine is from 10 years in the past. I treasure it.” “But what is it about?” “My dead parents are in here so I treasure it.” “Um… Were they models?” “No. My dad was an outstanding employee in a famous company and my mom was a normal person.” “And would you know how they met up?” “I thought girls were all sensitive about all this…” “Well, I’m a girl too and my curiosity gets the better of me.” “That’s probably the reason as to why you have idiots hang around you.” Ayame grabs on his cheeks and extends them sideways. “AHHHH! IT HURTS! I’M SORRY!” he shrieks in pain and Ayame lets go of him. “So are you up for it?” “Up for what?” he asks acting innoce

    Akihiko gets up from his seat in the empty classroom. The sun had gone down and moonlight filled the room. The classroom was a mess with chairs and desks scattered and tossed over. While leaning on his bench, he looks outside the window and says-“This is school… What a drag it must’ve been. Well!” says Akihiko and gets up from his seat, “At least not anymore!!!” and he leaves the classroom while laughing maniacally. During day-time in the abandoned building,“Here have some more! Aya~!” says Makimi as she tries to serve curry for Ayame.“I’m done senpai! I really am! Feed Natsuko! She’ll eat it…”“(Bleurgh)…” pukes Natsuko and asks them while pointing at the dead tentacle monster, “HOW ARE YOU GUYS ABLE TO EAT IN PRESENCE OF THAT?!”“Natsuko~! Sit here! I’ve told you countless times that during jobs such environments become common and it shouldn’t bother you. If you don’t want to eat the food your dear nee-chan prepared for you then you can go home!” and Makimi pouts.“Alri

    After throwing up, Natsuko starts to feel unwell.“You alright? I was just uh… joking.” Says Ayame while not convincing anyone in the room.“It’s okay… I’ll be fine after resting for a while.”“Are you sure though? You don’t look so well to me.”“Listen to your nee-chan now! Sit down here and take a short rest.” Says Makimi while making Natsuko sit on the floor. Ayame picks up the doll and observes it for a while.“Someone… had been here before us…” she says while turning the doll over an observing it.“Which means we are in the right place.” Says Makimi.“Yes, but a little late…” she puts down the doll on the table and continues, “This doll is fairly new… The production dates back to a year ago.”“So, you’re suggesting that a little child came through here?”“Not necessarily… It could’ve even been a grown man or woman.”“Then, have you assessed who the potential suspects could be?”“I mean I still don’t have enough evidence but from what all I’ve seen as of yet… It probably was

    Hiding in anticipation, Seirei is seen inside one of the classrooms of the buildings under the teacher’s desk. “Alright… Now’s a really good time for one of them to pop-up… I really want to ask them who they’re being led by.” Seirei then takes out his phone and sends a message to Yasuhiro. [Where are you? Is it the leader who got you?] A reply arrives about 40 seconds after the message went across. [Yeah. He’s strong. I’ll need your help. There enemies here lots.] Seirei looks at the message unconvinced and types- [Do you think I’m dumb? Even a child can type better than that… This is 1st division commander and I command you to stand down] [Don’t care. We’ve sided with the monkey.] [You idiots don’t even treat him with respect after joining his side… DO YOU ACTUALLY THINK I’M A BEING OF LOW IQ?!!] [Yes.] “What?” says Seirei and the teacher’s desk flies away completely exposing his location. “Well, sh*t. Guess I’ve gotta fight then.” Seirei stands up on

    After getting back home, Ayame takes a quick shower and goes upstairs and locks herself in. Her room was messy and nothing like before. Books and clothes were scattered around the room. Without stepping on the dump, she takes a seat on her table and opens her new pc.“Now then… Waiting has got me nowhere. How about this group then.” She says as she types into the search box, ‘Yokai talk’ and opens a video in which 2 men appear who resembled Seirei and Yasuhiro.“I had my suspicions but I have to make sure now…” she says as she notes down things in her book.‘We’re here at this round school building thing in Hokkaido. One of our viewers said that there was something here that stared at them when they were passing by with their friends.’‘We’ve come to see if the myth was real.’“Streamers… Quite the confidence you’ve got for just 5 viewers.”‘This is gonna be a little brutal depending on what we will be facing so I hope you’ll stay and watch it.’[Go on!

    Akihiko slowly opens his eyes and sees the light flickering a bit. He starts to float.“That’s a feeling I’m aware of…” he says and looks at his hands and feet in his astral form. Suddenly something comes flying and dashes into his body. A white creature which brought nostalgia to him.“Pei…” and the white object disappears. He closes his eyes and thanks Pei for his sacrifice and while floating he hears someone speaking outside the operation theatre. It was Ritsu and Seirei.“…stopping at an arm this time?”“Tch.”“What…?” says Akihiko while leaning on the door to try to hear them distinctly but they leave.“What did I just hear? I feel like it was a bad time to wake up… Anyhow, I need to wake up in my real body somehow.” He says while attempting to re-enter his actual body which was sleeping with an oxygen mask and a lot of wires hanging from his body.“I was really roughed up there. I still have to grow… I have to before I put those around me in danger.” He float

    “Alright… Can someone tell me what the hell is going on here?! Why are there two high schoolers who look like they came back from a war?!” “Doctor this is an emergency! Please hurry up…” says one of the nurses to the doctors who was heading for the operating theatre with the nurses pushing the stretchers towards the room. The doors close and Yasuhiro and Seirei look at the door in the hopes of their complete recovery. Few hours pass by with them lying in wait. One of the doors open and a doctor exits. Removing his mask, he says- “I’m getting off my shift now…” “Doctor! So, will they be fine?” “Huh…? Ah, you might be the ones who brought them here. Yes, so the girl will be fine with a recovery and in a few months, she’ll have all her bones healed. The boy… Well, let’s just pray for the best.” Says the doctor and walks away. “He’s gonna be fine… He’s gonna be alright…” repeats Yasuhiro to himself. Seirei then gets up from the seat and says- “Ritsu.” “He’s gonna be all

    Few hours later, all three of them open their eyes to find themselves in front of an abandoned hospital. “Oh… Why are we back at the building?” asks Akihiko while rubbing his eyes and slowly waking up. “Just cause it looks like that doesn’t make it the same. God. You’re going to be a headache for people in the future.” Says Yasuhiro. After that, Akihiko pushes around the sleeping Ayame even when her eyes were wide open. “Once again…” “What? Are you dead…?” “If you do that once more… I’ll put a bullet through your head.” She says in a low voice while groaning in pain. “What’s wrong though? It’s not like you’ve broken a leg, right?” he says while lifting her leg and dropping it. Ayame passes out completely and then Yasuhiro comes up from behind and asks him- “Do you have any idea what we’ve been going through while you passed out midway on the ride?” “No. The last thing I remember was that there was this creature on the road and then it’s a blank.” “You don’t even re
