The Great Tengu of Mount Kurama is an aged yokai who was Hagoromo Gitsune's right-hand man 400 years ago. During the battle between her forces and Nurarihyon's, he fought against Gyuki. His place has since been usurped by Minagoroshi Jizo, who rewrote the memories of the rest of Hagoromo Gitsune's forces to forget that the tengu was ever among them. As a means of revenge, the Great Tengu of Mount Kurama decides to prevent Nue's birth and strikes a deal with Gyuki in regards to Rikuo's training in Kyoto to assist in the process. However, when he begins to feel that the training is taking too long, he sends his underlings to retrieve Nenekirimaru on their own - which ultimately proves unsuccessful. 

At first glance, Nura Rikuo seems like nothing more than a normal middle-schooler. In actual fact, he is grandson of Nurarihyon, master of a youkai clan. Having only recently resolved the hostilities between the Nura Clan and the Shikoku Yokai, Rikuo finds no rest as an ancient enemy of the Nura Clan, Haguromo-Gitsune, resurfaces. After 400 years of inactivity, Haguromo-Gitsune suddenly sweeps through Kyoto with overwhelming power.

Rikuo grew up in a house full of yokai, so he always thought they were cool. But the kids in his class talk about yokai like they're bad! When his grandfather announces Rikuo as his chosen heir to run the Nura clan, Rikuo is torn between his human nature and his duties as a yokai. The rest of the clan's not so crazy about a wimpy part-human as their ruler, particularly Gagoze, a high-ranking yokai who would rather eat a human than be ruled by one.
