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.

"Sis, you're not helping much lately," Laura complained when she saw that her sister was sitting comfortably on the couch. It was apparent that Kanae barely paid any heed to the other matter and simply watched television.
Kanae looked back. "There's no school, so I'm just doing my work from here."
Her work actually consisted of managing a lot of businesses that she got from the Souhon Clan. In addition, she helped Jason with his business too, but only from the shadow. As she was working behind the scenes, she stayed at home most of the time, making her look more similar to a lazy bumpkin.
"You should just help me out in the company, Sis."
"You can do them by yourself," Kanae chuckled. "I'm not that knowledgeable about sweets too. It's better to leave them to you, or I might destroy what you already have."
