Kitsune no Akuma to Kuroi Grimoire
狐の悪魔と黒い魔導書〈グリモア〉
Synopsis
High schooler Shin, bound to a demon-controlling grimoire, becomes host to fox demon Kyuuki and a target for power-seekers.
Narrates the story of Kyuuki, a strong, proud fox demon who recently woke up and needs a host and Kamishiro Shin, a normal would be high school student if it wouldn't for "his ability" and for the fact that he got a hold of the black Grimoire that controls Kyuuki's existence. Shin is bound to the book as long as he is alive, thus not only he can't sever his connection to Kyuuki; but those who want the book's power are bound to come after his hide regardless of time and place.
