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: Dealing with the Large Monster
SLAM!
The monster slammed the ground hard, seemingly extremely angry at Kanae's earlier attack. The ground shook heavily as the men tried hard to stabilize themselves.
"REI!" Jason cried out in panic.
"I'm fine," Kanae's voice could be heard from the device. She managed to escape in the nick of time, right before the fists hit her.
Dean came over to stand near Kanae. "You're quite brave, little girl. But this monster no longer has human senses. Even if it's hurt, it won't do much to his overall fighting prowess."
"Even if it's in pain, it won't be affected?" Kanae turned to Dean with question marks all over her face.
Dean nodded. He had been closely watching the monster from the very beginning. "The stronger they are, the more they can feel the pain like humans. However, their pain won't affect them too much in fighting. They can still move with superhuman strength and speed."
