Over the next few days, I thought about what I should do the next 11 months before I'm being enlisted into the military, and my conclusion is I want to do 3 things before leaving.
1. Incorporate my "Lazy Art" with my Kagune or at least use it more efficiently.
2. Get [Taming Lvl 1, (Can tame class 4-1 Danger Beasts)]
3. And get [Har manipulation Lvl 2, (Can now change length and color of hair)]
Improving my "Lazy Art" with my Kagune will give me a little power boost, and right now the Kagune uses a lot of my stamina, so I cant use it for long yet which is not optimal on the battlefield where wars can take days or weeks of fighting non-stop, so I hope to use it with "Lazy Art" to make my Kagune more efficient.
And right now I'm training with a guy called Arima Zen, and he's the strongest in our clan despite not having his Kagune awaken and he turned down the position of the head of the family, and that's the reason my father is the head now.
Arima's reason for turning the offer down was that he thinks the head of the family should have his Kagune awaken so that he can inspire the clan and instead, he climbed the ranks in the military, to show to those that can't awaken their Kagune that you can still become strong.
Now Arima's one of the current generals of the Empire and orders soldiers from our clan. There are currently 3 generals, Ohssi Fujimi, Budo, and Arima but the Empire is currently thinking of assigning a 4th, to completely conquer the North.
"You really is a rare genius Tatsuki, maybe you can soon take over my position!" When we stopped sparing Arima he said.
"You plan on retiring already when you are only 30?" I asked back to his statement with a little raised eyebrows.
"Well to be fair I'm a little lost. Am I doing what I want with my life? I feel suffocated and want freedom. I'm a man that has done a lot of bad things like killing innocent, but I have always respected the dead, but most people don't here in the Capital, and that makes me uneasy about where the future leads."
"Hmm," I unconsciously said while pondering his words with closed eyes and holding my chin. To be fair in this little time I have been with Arima, I really like his character a lot.
Realy strict when it comes to training with a calm and composed personality, but can also be confused with being a cold person, while the biggest impact is his ideology about respecting death and his opponents. He has white bob-cut hair, wears glasses, and trains with every weapon available to be ready for any unexpected things happening, sword, spear, and even guns you name it, he can use all of them.
"While I don't have an answer for you right now, I will in the future!" I told Arima with confidence, and unconsciously used my Kagune showing all 6 tails, and my one eye turned black.
"Sorry, don't listen to my rambling, but you feel a lot more mature despite still being a kid, because of that pressure you radicate right now is like a born leader or king."
'Huh? Oh, I used my Kagune without realizing' I though while quickly retracting it and my eyes turned to the normal boring eyes again.
"Sorry sorry, I did it without knowing, but I meant what I said," I told him while hanging my hands on my belt.
"Yes, I get the feeling you can help me despite being 3 times your age, truly a weird feeling! But I have to leave now, bye" He said while bowing a little, to show respect, and I did the same

The next day after meeting Arima, I am now in the mansion's library looking through books about species of Danger Beasts, so I can't locate the specific beast I want to tame.
It has to be from class 4-1 or I won't have a chance to tame it, and I really want a stealth-type that can spy on people, so it does not have to be strong in combat.
The bug-type really suits my criteria, but the fact that I'm not really fond of bugs holds me back, so I looked for a few others. I found a butterfly that can camouflage which is pretty cool so that is one of my choices.
Then I found an animal-type mole, that is pretty strong and can make things to sand then dig everywhere, and send vibrations through the ground to detect things, but it is really hard to come by when it hides underground.
Last I finally found my choice of Danger Beast. It's a ghost-type beast called Shadow Demon. It's absolutely the weakest in direct combat compared to the others, but it's nearly immortal in the shadows because it can heal, and can freely travel and hide in them.
It has two skills that I found suitable for my first Danger Beast. It has a mental ability to confuse people's senses, and despite being only the size of a male's upper body it can eat way more than its size, so it's concluded that it has a space in its stomach, though nobody knows how much exactly.
"I have decided tomorrow I will set out to find and tame this Danger Beast"
