That morning Rin was getting ready to go to school. He checked his bag and made sure he had prepared everything. However, before he left, he received a call from his friend, Keyaru.
"Rin, I need your help. There's a yokai that's creating trouble in Tokyo. We have to stop it before it causes more damage" Keyaru said on his phone call
Rin knew that helping Keyaru was important, so she immediately decided to help him. He tells Keyaru that he will come soon and then immediately departs to the location where the yokai appeared.
That morning in no time they manage to conquer the yokai and Rin returns to her house to change her uniform before going to school. When Rin arrives at a crossroads, she meets two of her friends, Naoki and Ryo. They greeted him and Rin responded with a gentle smile.
"Good morning Rin" asked Naoki.
"Good morning also Naoki, and Ryo" Rin returned their greetings.
"Are you ready for tomorrow's exam?" ask Ryo.
Rin smiled, "Yes, I'm ready. What about you two?"
"We are ready too. Oh yeah, who did you meet?" ask Naoki.
"Oh yeah, I accidentally met an old friend of mine" Rin replied.
However, Keyaru suddenly appears behind Rin. The four of them walked to school. Rin and Keyaru try not to get too close to each other so as not to arouse suspicion, while Naoki and Ryo are unaware of anything. They are still talking about tomorrow's exam and the subject matter they find difficult to learn due to its high level of difficulty.
Upon arriving at school, Rin and his friends go straight to their respective classes. Rin sat down next to Naoki and he felt comfortable sitting there. He talked to Naoki about their lessons and about some of the things they found when they were looking for information for their assignments.
However, during the lunch break, Rin secretly felt a little worried. He was afraid that people would find out that he and Keyaru were doing something they were hiding. While being with his friends, Rin and Keyaru decide to act as if they are not very familiar. Rin and Keyaru don't want to make his friends especially the Keyaru fans feel uncomfortable. So, there is always a distance every time they walk around the school.
Then after school, Rin and Keyaru meet again and talk about what happened to Yokai this morning. They joke around with each other and enjoy the time they spend together.
"Hey Keyaru, I'm still confused as to whether our job is to hunt yokai or help people find yokai?" ask Rin who seems curious
Keyaru smiled and replied, "Our job is to hunt the yokai, Rin. Not helping people looking for yokai."
Rin nodded and asked again, "But what if that person asks for our help?"
Keyaru replied, "Of course we will help him. But we have to make sure that our goal remains to hunt the yokai and protect the people from the dangers of the yokai."
Rin nodded in understanding and said, "Oh, I see. Hmm we're like superheroes, aren't we? We're protecting the world from yokai attacks?"
Keyaru laughed and replied, "Not a superhero, Rin. We are only members of the Yokai Hunters Association responsible for eradicating Yokai and maintaining the balance of nature."
Rin nodded and said, "Alright, but what do we do if we meet yokai who won't fight back?"
Keyaru replied, "If they don't threaten people, we will let them live and return to their world. But if they interfere with human life, we must act to protect society."
Rin nodded and asked again, "But what if that yokai is too strong for us to deal with?"
Keyaru replied, "Don't worry, Rin. We always have backups and special weapons to deal with yokai who are stronger than them. The important thing is, we have to work together and trust each other."
Rin smiled and said, "Alright, I believe you, Keyaru. We will be a tough team and eradicate all the yokai in this world!"
"Oh yeah there's something else I want to ask you Keyaru" Rin
"What's that?" Keyaru
"You're also a crow?" ask Rin
"Oh yes it is true. Are you interested in hearing my story?" ask Keyaru
"Yes I want to hear it" Rin said with curiosity and eager to hear the story of Keyaru
"Yes but not here, we go to the temple huh" Keyaru immediately took Rin by the hand and took her running along towards the temple.
Upon arriving at the temple, Keyaru began to tell how he could become a crow tengu. It all started from Father and Mother Keyaru who has a unique and interesting story before finally giving birth to their child who inherited the blood of the crow.
Keyaru's father, Hiroshi, was a famous swordsman in his area. He is a descendant of a samurai family that has for centuries protected the region from wandering supernatural beings. When Hiroshi meets with Keyaru's mother, Yuri, he has already handed over his sword and decides to retire.
Yuri is a witch who is famous among the witch community. He has the ability to communicate with supernatural beings and learn magic from his ancestors who have lived since the Edo period. Hiroshi and Yuri fall in love and get married. They decide to start a new life together and move away from a life that demands them to fight against supernatural beings.
However, when Yuri becomes pregnant with their first child, they realize that the blood of the raven tengu the Yuri family inherited has affected their bloodline. Yuri is constantly learning and preparing to face their child's unique abilities. When Keyaru is born, both parents realize that he has inherited their abilities and is stronger than both of them.
Yuri taught Keyaru about magic and the blood ability of the crow tengu he possessed. Meanwhile, Hiroshi teaches Keyaru about martial arts and swordsmanship, as well as how to protect the city from supernatural beings. The two work together to ensure that Keyaru is ready to accept responsibility as the city's guard and protect humanity from supernatural threats.
The past of his father and mother, Keyaru, shows how precious the blood of a raven is to their family and how the two parents work together to prepare their child for the challenges that exist. This helps explain why Keyaru has become a brave member of the YHA organization and is ready to protect the city of Tokyo.
"Now do you understand Rin?" keyaru asked Rin
Rin nodded her head "Yes I understand now"
"Bugh" Keyaru is snapped up by Naomi who has suddenly appeared behind the two of them
Keyaru held her nape despite the pain and looked at Naomi with an annoyed look in her eyes "What's wrong?"
"You broke the flower pot I hung in front of yesterday afternoon right?!" asked Naomi in a slightly rough tone
Keyaru replied casually "Yes sorry I accidentally changed, later on"
Naomi still looks upset, but Rin who is next to Keyaru tries to defuse the situation "Calm Naomi, not a big deal. Keyaru promised to change your flower pot."
However, Naomi still looked dissatisfied and said "This is the second time you've ruined my stuff, Keyaru. You should be more careful!"
Keyaru nodded in acknowledging his mistake and promised to be more careful in the future. Rin who saw the situation that began to subside decided to shift the topic of conversation "Oh yes, have you guys checked the list of yokai that we will hunt today?"
Naomi nodded and showed the list to Rin and Keyaru. They also began to discuss the strategies and tactics that will be used to catch the yokai-yokai. After they had planned everything, they walked out of the temple and started heading to the places they had already determined.
