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: The End of Battle
Kanae watched Carlo with indifferent eyes. She had correctly guessed the content of the vial, and the real purpose of this whole battle was to hand it over to the strongest person. However, unbeknownst to the people from the government, those who were at the peak instead handed it over to someone cunning, yet strong like Carlo.
The man screamed for several minutes before the pain subsided. Sitting on the ground, Carlo glared at Kanae.
"What did you give me?"
"I don't know," Kanae replied calmly. She would never tell him that she in fact knew that the content of the vial was designed to awaken people's real potential forcefully, resulting in the tremendous leap in their abilities that accompanied the pain.
Carlo stood up. He frowned. "It seems, they're attracted by my screams."
