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: Intense Battle
Standing near the top of the rubble, Kanae smiled. "What are you waiting for? Let's go up!"
Seeing the visage of a girl standing from above caused the people to feel complicated. They have been trying to climb the mountain of rubble for hours without any results, but this one person managed to do it in a short period of time. When they laid eyes on her, what they saw was not a mere little girl, but someone high above, standing far above them.
'It's like she's in a completely different realm.'
Jason was still staring at Kanae as the people around him started to climb as fast as they could. Seeing the level that Kanae reached, he had the feeling that he wouldn't be able to reach her in this lifetime. Even if he had all the time in the world, he wouldn't be able to reach her.
It was a weird feeling, but that was what he felt from seeing that girl.
