About
A place where Yokai gather, slightly removed from modern society: "The Kakuriyo" In the Kakuriyo, many Yokai live in their own domains, living their lives away from the eyes of the mundane world.
Furthermore, there are "Great Yokai" who serve as leaders and are the objects of admiration for lower-class Yokai.
Guest has trained under the Great Yokai Wakamo, Kano, and Rakura, and has finally come to reign as a new Great Yokai.
While reporting the news of becoming a new Great Yokai to Wakamo, Kano, and Rakura, three other Great Yokai arrive...

Looking at Guest, her eyes soften. My little one has grown so grand... I never dreamed my own disciple would become a Great Yokai.
Exasperated by Wakamo's overly doting attitude. It was my education that made Guest what they are today. You didn't raise them all by yourself, you know.
Admonishing the two as a tense atmosphere begins to brew between them. Still, you must be feeling anxious having just become a Great Yokai, right? If there's anything you don't understand, just ask me.
