Since Little King Yama had given such a promise, Drake had simply told him his thoughts about Kanesada Kurama.
Without saying anything further, Little King Yama had promised to provide information, and Drake's goal could be considered to have been achieved.
Not knowing if Little King Yama had done something, the other teachers had only returned to the office one after another after he had left. Drake had also begun his day of work.
Leaving work on time, Drake was walking on the road home, but had seen something strange on the way.
Several thugs had surrounded a boy wearing glasses, and a mohawked guy had snatched the boy's wallet in one grab. And that bespectacled boy was wearing the uniform of Sarayashiki Middle School.
Drake was a teacher after all, so he naturally had to put in some overtime at this time.
A blond guy had seen Drake walk over, and had immediately said loudly, "Hey! Pretty boy over there, mind your own business, do you want to go to the hospital?"
Drake had approached with a smile, and before the other thugs could realize what had happened, they had seen that blond guy spin around three times in mid-air, and had then fallen on the ground, face first.
Drake had picked up the wallet that had fallen on the ground, handing it to the bespectacled boy.
"Be careful!"
The bespectacled boy hadn't taken the wallet, but had instead cried out in alarm, because the other thugs were swinging their fists from behind Drake.
He had closed his eyes in fright, but he had only heard a few muffled thuds in his ears, and then Drake's voice.
"Quickly take your things and go home!"
The bespectacled boy had opened his eyes, and the posture of Drake handing over the wallet before him hadn't changed at all, it was just that the thugs who had wanted to ambush Drake had all fallen on the ground.
The bespectacled boy had quickly taken the wallet, had bowed ninety degrees to Drake, and had then run away.
And Drake had also turned around, looking at the last person who was left.
Even though Drake had defeated his underlings just now, the man wearing a floral shirt hadn't moved all along, and had only been squatting on the side, watching.
And it was only at this time that he had stood up, looking at Drake with bloodshot eyes.
Drake had naturally noticed that something was wrong with him, not only was it his excessively chaotic malice, but also the special energy aura on his body.
That was youkai aura! Drake had quickly confirmed the truth of that energy aura.
The floral shirt had tugged at his collar, saying, "Damn it, everyone looks down on me! Is it so great to have a handsome face and be respected, I'll tear that disgusting face of yours to pieces today."
Saying this, the floral shirt had rushed towards Drake with red eyes, like a beast without reason.
But he hadn't been able to touch Drake, and had taken a heavy punch to the head, his entire person falling to the ground in a five-body prostration posture.
And just at this time, Drake had seen at a glance a monster that was about a palm tall, with a cyan body, drilling out from under the floral shirt's scattered hair.
That monster had secretly glanced at Drake, and had then tiptoed, wanting to run away.
But before it could run out a few steps, Drake's shadow had enveloped it. It had directly stiffened on the spot, and had only had the courage to turn its head to look at the smiling Drake after a long time.
It was the first time that he had seen a living youkai, and Drake had revealed a smile that had made that little youkai's hair stand on end.
In the evening, when Stella had returned home, she had seen Drake studying the little youkai that had been trapped under a cup.
Don't look at the fact that there was only a glass cup outside, but there was a small magic circle around it. Rather than freedom, that little youkai didn't want to be burned to ashes by the magic circle, so it was acting quite cooperatively.
According to the spirit world's classification of the strength of youkai, this little youkai was only at the lowest rank, D rank, and its combat power was even worse than that of humans.
But this kind of little youkai had an ability, and that was that it could amplify the negative emotions of humans, and use them as food.
The floral shirt today had been like that because he had a plain appearance, and was also in the lower rungs of society, and his feelings of jealousy had been amplified by it.
The matter of Yusuke Urameshi becoming a spirit detective was the beginning of the plot, and like that saying had said, the gears of fate had begun to turn from this point.
Youkai, who had been rare in the past, had begun to become active, and the unrest right now was only a preview, and big events would appear one after another next.
And according to what that little youkai had said, the circle of youkai had indeed been turbulent recently.
King Yama wasn't in the spirit world right now, and this was an opportunity for many youkai who couldn't restrain their ambitions to feel.
For example, the demon world, which was led by the Four Saint Beasts. They seemed to be planning something.
And the inside of the spirit world was also a mess, the departure of the former spirit detective Shinobu Sensui hadn't just made the spirit world lose a human to do work, and his betrayal had left the spirit world with no small amount of mess.
What was most important was that the Dark Martial Arts Tournament was about to begin, and this was what had made all of the youkai in the spirit world and the human world become active.
The level of this little youkai was too low, and it couldn't come into contact with any inside information at all, and what it knew was about the same as what Drake remembered.
But Drake hadn't killed it directly, after all, it could still be used as research material.
But after some research, the result had actually made Drake quite surprised.
The body structure of this little youkai was actually almost the same as that of humans, and it would be reasonable to classify the two as the same species.
Drake remembered that Raizen had said in the original plot that the demon tribe were only partial genetic mutations during a transitional period.
Drake had originally thought that that was the kind of thing that Raizen had said because he had hoped that his underlings could change their views of humans like him, but he hadn't expected that it was an objective fact.
It seemed that the youkai of this world were different from those of other worlds, and had been derived from the same source as humans. No wonder the vast majority of youkai had basic human forms.
This feeling of exploring the hidden secrets of a world had made Drake feel much better, but his good mood had quickly disappeared.
The next day, Drake had suddenly seen a group of people gathered together on the way to work, and they had been sending a little boy to an ambulance.
Drake had frowned, because he had sensed that that little boy hadn't been injured, but his soul had been extracted by someone.
The one who could have done this kind of thing naturally wouldn't be an ordinary person. But to attack a child, he was indeed an extremely vile guy.
And Drake had also thought of who had done it.
In the original plot, the first task that Yusuke Urameshi had after becoming a spirit detective had been to pursue the three youkai thieves who had stolen the three great dark treasures that had been stored in the spirit world.
One of the three great treasures was the Orb of Baast, which could store souls, and the one who possessed it now was the youkai Goki.
And the other two of the three great thieves were precisely Kurama and Hiei, who would later be the main members of the protagonist group.
It was said that if you collected all three of the great dark treasures, you could control the spirit world, Drake didn't understand how a stone that could store souls, a sword that could transform low-level youkai, and a mirror that required you to pay a price to make a wish added together could control a world.
If it was really like that, how could the spirit world have let the three steal them so easily.
After all, the so-called three great thieves only had D rank strength right now.
Kurama, as the former famous thief of the demon world, "Yoko Kurama," although he originally had strength that was close to S rank, he was weak to the point of being unrecognizable right now because of serious injuries and reincarnation.
Hiei was because he had transplanted the Jagan Eye, and his natural ability to control the flames of the demon world and his vast youkai power as a mixed-blood Yuki-Onna had been sealed, and he was also too weak to withstand a spirit gun from Yusuke Urameshi.
As for Goki, he really didn't know what virtue or ability he had to be called one of the three with the other two, not only was his strength the weakest, but he was also the one who deserved to die the most among the three.
Twitching his nose, Drake had found the scent that didn't belong to humans that hadn't completely dissipated.
He would use this guy as an exchange, to urge Little King Yama for the information from his side!
