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.

Celebration Party
"Laura, how many times I have to tell you that I won't wear that dress?" Kanae was looking towards the dress that Laura showed to her with dark expression. She didn't like their motive. The fact that most of them would reveal her body a lot made her against it even more.
She preferred one that could cover her body, especially her arms or legs because it would allow her to bring her weapon with her.
After that incident at night, Laura finally managed to pick her own dress and today, she was determined to have Kanae picked up a dress form the other types that left unchosen.
Laura's face scrunched. "Come on, Sis. I can't have you wear butler clothes."
"I will wear simple dress like before. That should be more than enough," Kanae retorted. The dress that she wore in the party before was pretty good. She quite liked it.
"No way, I won't let you wear the same dress."
"What? It's not like anyone remembers that I wear that dress before, right?"
