Under the Veil of Night

In the City of Crime, one law stands above them all: Only the strongest can live. Fighting is normal, extortion is common, and death is inevitable. Born into a wealthy family yet forced to live in poverty, Kanae Nali vowed to become strong enough to take back what rightfully belonged to her—even if it meant that she had to face the consequences and brave the dangers lurking in every corner. Yet on the outside, just like her mysterious peers, she was no different from the other high school students living their lives to the fullest. “Under the ray of light, my ability will only make me die faster. Under the veil of night, my ability allows me to survive longer.” ____ Story set in fictional city. Any similarities with real world's event is purely coincidence.

Aftermath

It was morning when Kanae woke up. She opened her eyes blearily. Because she was staying near Kevin all the time yesterday, she felt safe. As long as she didn't sense danger around her, she wouldn't wake up from her deep slumber.

Sitting on the bed, Kanae yawned. She looked around before her gaze was locked on the man who sat on the couch with his head on the table before him. Numerous pieces of paper were placed in front of him, telling her that he has been working hard through the night.

'Ouch,' Kanae tried to move when she found that her back hurt. She recalled that she has been thrown and crashed on the back numerous times, so it should be expected that her back was hurt.

'After Black Street, hospital has become my second home,' Kanae sighed internally.
