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.

Another Clash with Sakura (1)
Laura looked towards the mansion in front of her as her eyes darted around. From the back, the mansion still looked extremely massive as it was over 10 meters tall, not to mention that its attached wings also sprawled out on the estate. There were several windows on the second floor that were finely carved with beautiful accents. With the additional effect of the beautiful light blue color of the wall, the mansion looked sophisticated.
Fixating her gaze on the windows, Laura's lips curled up as she recalled how often Kanae sneaked out from them. As a brave and naughty kid, Kanae dared to climb down the trees from the window. No matter how many times their parents reprimanded her, she would do it again.
'And she's also good at it,' Laura recalled the time when she asked her sister to teach her how to climb trees. Kanae could do it after one attempt, but she never managed to climb the tree no matter how hard she tried.
