Where to go?
Follow the cliffside until you see a Yokai mist in front of you. That is the way you have to go in this mission. Going down the cliffside only leads to a single chest. Go for it if you feel like. After disposing of the Yokai climb the ladder behind it.
You will reach a green cave with a Dark Realm (corrupted yokai area) inside of it. In the distance you can see a Shrine but to use it you must clear the Dark Realm first. The enemy you have to look for in order to do it is an Ippon-Datara (the one-legged, one-eyes Yokai jumping around).
From the Shrine head into the cave next to it and follow the path until you reach an area which is locked by a seal at the other exit.
In this area there will be multiple waves of enemies, but they are all types you have fought many times before. There are 3 waves total.
Wave One: 2 Gaki and 1 Yamanba.
Wave Two: 1 Dweller and 1 Enki.
Wave Three: 1 Skeleton Warrior and 1 Yoki.
Always kill the smaller enemies first and the big enemies last. Once you clear all the enemies in this area the mission will succeed.
This finishes Learning a Lesson side mission in Nioh 2.

At the end, “Once you clear all the enemies in this area the mission will succeed.”
Can you at least explain how many enemies/waves?
I 100% agree, this should’ve been in there. This has now been added and updated. Thanks for your question and helping to make the guide better! 🙂
