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.

Building inside the Forest
After dawdling around by helping out in the Ryukalin Clan, Kanae finally decided to return back to the school. Aside from here, there were many others who also skipped school because of the chaos in their house. The teachers didn't really pay much attention and only assigned the doctor to check on them.
Kanae smiled wryly at Shiro in front of her. "Do you need to do a check up?"
"There's no need," Shiro rolled his eyes. Just one look was already enough for him to see that Kanae had healed from the wounds that she sustained during the battle. Besides, he would never give the real report regarding the girl's health to the government.
"Is there anything important happening in the school during the time I'm away?" Kanae asked.
"There's nothing much. The school barely pays any attention to the students who come here because of their family background. They're mostly focused on the students who receive the golden letter."
