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.

Clash of Groups (Prelude): First Meeting with Master Rudy (1)
Black Street, 2 years ago in June
Several people were lurking about on the secluded street late at night. It was not unusual for people to roam on the streets in Black Street. This area has always been known to be home to the people who were part of the underworld.
"Rei, you're doing great with the missions recently," Jason remarked as he swung his large blade around.
Kanae smirked. "We have been doing this for more than a year. I have gotten used to the missions that we accept."
"But you're still so stingy with our meals," Tommy's face scrunched. "You should treat us occasionally."
"Just ask Oro, I'm still saving up my money."
