To those who can't imagine Kousei's kagune, it's almost the same as Kaneki's, only that, his is six tails. Theirs are almost the same. Remember? In the first chapter, Kousei was attacked by Rize's sister. I haven't yet named her, though. You'll soon know it.

...

I'm back in the facility where I'm kept monitored, locked or chained. I can only leave the facility if they need to use me, especially my Uncle.

I accepted that fate. I know that I should not think of myself anymore and he's dead...

The real me passed away since I was born.

Arima Kousei is dead.

I am just a quinque already... a living quinque...

A living quinque doesn't need emotions or its own mind.

"Arima Kousei," I looked who said my name until I found my uncle in front of me.

"I finally persuaded them that they don't need to do this to you. The torture is enough. You have to return in the outside world as you again," he told me.

He took off the chains that were on bed. "What do you mean, uncle?" I asked him.

When I was finally out of my bed, he looked straight at me. "You're not just any quinque or weapon of mine. You are Arima Kousei. I have observed that your eyes were blank and you just kept on treating yourself as if you should be an emotionless ghoul."

"Isn't that what you want of me?" I screamed and cried.

He sat on my bed. "You aren't truly dead, yet, Kousei. You have the chance to live as what you are. You just have to promise that you won't betray me."

I nodded. "Yes, Uncle."

He let me out again and gave me black clothes rather than the white shirt and pants I had always worn when I'm inside the facility.

...

He brought me back on my apartment. He and I went out of the car. Up until now, I don't know his reason for bringing me back in my apartment.

"Ah... Uncle?" I called him.

He gave me a heavy paper bag and told me, "These are coffee and some sugar. There are also wrapped human flesh in it. Eat them when you feel hungry. You can enjoy coffee even if your RC Cells are high. I know you can control your ghoul instincts already and you don't need to be in the facility anymore. There are ghouls that easily get themselves associated and walk together with humans. They could hide their identity, altogether."

"Are you saying I can do the same, already?" I asked him.

"Yes," he smiled at me. "Before I leave, even if you are apt to fight against your fellow ghouls, don't attack quickly. There are still ghouls stronger than you, understood? I would have to keep training you. Living with humans is also one of them."

He closed the door after he left but after he took me back and closed my door, I heard that someone approached him and shouted, "You're here in my son's apartment after he went missing for two months! His friend said that he had seen you and him before. This means that she could have said the truth! What did you do to my son?"

"I turned him into a ghoul," he answered him which earned him a huge punch from my father.

"Why? Why??? Tell me, what's your reason for making him a ghoul? Are you so disgusted that I am a pure human but you're not?" he shouted to him.

I sat on the floor with my back facing the door. Tears fall on my cheeks. I heard them arguing and I couldn't help but be sad. My father is angry that he turned me into a ghoul but if he didn't do that, I am already dead.

I stood up and opened my door. Both of them looked at me.

I dried my tears and went in front Uncle Kishou. "Father, I'm not human anymore but I am able to live again because of him. I was human and I have accepted that truth already. I am his personal quinque and that is what I am now."

He looked at him more.

Then, Uncle Kishou grinned. "Hearing you say that means you really have forgiven me from what I did to you."

He asked me to stand behind him as he tell my father, "Takahiko, don't worry. He's not alone. He won't attack you, I promise."

He let me go closer to him. When he hugged me, drops of tears escape from my eyes. "Father! Father, I'm sorry!"

While I am in his embrace, I felt a cold metal that touched my back which gave me a huge pain all over my body. This is my first time to have been given a suppressant straight at my lower back where my kagune comes out. The pain is so excruciating that my body felt like broken glass shards.

I was forcing myself to make it go out but I can't.

When I felt so weak on my father's arm, he looked back at my uncle with a surprised reaction.

"What did you do to him?" he asked him as I fall limp.

"This is normal procedure. I am just making sure he won't go berserk on you," he told him.

I kept holding my father's shirt due to pain until I blacked out.

"Why... You told me..."

My eyes just close automatically.

...

My eyes open up after a few hours. I still can feel the effects of the suppressant he gave me as I can still feel my back aching. I also noticed that I am alone. I stood up from my bed and found the brown, paper bag on the table. Under it is a note coming from my father and uncle. Both of them just told me to keep safe.

"What will I do to my life now? I still don't feel hungry. I guess that's a huge relief to me," I told myself. Why wouldn't I not feel hungry? I always eat the kagune of my opponents when I am being used by my uncle as his weapon after I defeated them. Worst thing I did is that, I ate a kagune that looks like a white wing of a butterfly. It was big and large but I am able to eat it all.

I sighed...

I walked back inside my room and that's when I saw the piano which is now filled with dust. I cleaned it up and after that, I sat back on my old seat. If I play the piano, I guess, at least a little, my life would return to what it was before.

I played everything that I feel like playing. Tears kept on falling down my eyes. I brought all of the anger, frustration, disappointment, sadness and pain in the piano.

When I finally let it out, the pain on my back finally vanished. I could also feel that my kagune- tails went out on its own. It swung above, at my side and below me. While I am contemplating on my own after I made my coffee, I heard a knock which made me return my kagune inside me. I opened the door and found Watari Ryota in front of me.

"Yo!" he smiled at me. His left hand went at my shoulder and he stared at me completely. He touched my belly and he seemed shocked.

I took myself off from him and asked annoyingly, "What do you want?"

"When did you gain such powerful belly, Kousei?" he asked me.

I touched it as well and I was shocked that I gained a six packed abs. It could have been one of the results of my training with Uncle Kishou.

"You were missing for two months. We were all shocked when Tsubaki told me that you are a ghoul. It's not true, right? If you are, you could have already attacked and killed me," he told me.

I clenched my fists. He doesn't know what he is saying. I don't know what to say to him...

"Leave me alone, Watari," I murmured.

He looked at me surprisingly. "Wait? What's the reason?"

"Is it so disgusting to be a ghoul? Ghouls live. They all do have families on their own. They know what emotions are, the same as humans! They're not just man-eating cannibals you think they are!" I shouted.

He just stared at me. I closed my door and repeated, "Leave me alone!"

He just kept on knocking and he keeps asking me, "Kousei! Kousei! Answer me! Are you really a ghoul now?"

I went at the second floor of my apartment and when I looked down, due to my sensitive senses, I heard someone tell him, "He's not a ghoul you think he is. He's one of us. Even so, his uncle believes that he needed to continue on his studies."

Mado Akira? Why is she here?

I quickly ran to open the door. When I saw her wearing a black blouse and black skirt with a lab coat on her, I blushed. Watari just stared at her and I sighed when I noticed that he's blushing the same as I am. I looked behind her and I noticed that she does have a pink trolley bag behind her. I quickly took her trolley and lead her in. Watari followed her.

"I'm living with you. Chairman Washuu knew about you already. He had asked your uncle to give you someone who can monitor your movements. You are the only exempted ghoul including the other half ghouls that are not hunted due to your affiliation with the CCG. Don't think about betraying the CCG, Kousei or else you'll become an S-class target," she told me.

"S-class?" I chuckled. "That's overstretching it."

"Your friend is here. Do you want him to know more?" she asked me.

Watari stared at me but he seemed not afraid of me. Instead, he looked interested in what actually happened to me. "Can I be an investigator, too?" he asked her.

"If you want, you should enter the CCG Academy this year," she told him.

I just sighed after I sat on my couch. "When I thought I'll completely be alone."

"You have always been alone," she told me.

She went closer to me and I saw that she's holding an injection. I stood up in fear. I just had one, painful experience due to that.

"Don't dare give me that!" I shouted.

She laughed at me. "I won't waste this to you just yet. You can still control yourself, anyway."

I finally wanted to go upstairs. S-class target... huh? If I betray them, I would become one? Is it because I was trained by Uncle Kishou and they know that I was cannibalizing?

"Let me sleep. I'm tired already," I told them.

I locked my door and laid on my bed. Since my kagune are hurting inside me, I decided to sleep sideways. I have always been sleeping with my kagune open.

...

From a distance to his apartment, there were two ghouls staring at him. Both are dangerous ghouls.

"Brother? You can smell Miki, do you?" a girl, wearing a pink dress asked her brother who seemed to be looking at the sky.

"Her tails and organs are on a new person, you know?" he smiled at her. Both of them were standing on a rooftop with the full moon lighting them up.

"What do you plan to do?" she asked him.

"Capture and kill him, of course. If there is someone who will unite with her, that should be me," he told her.
