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.

"This should be the last one," Mike kicked the man in front of him. He sighed with relief when everything was over. He loved fighting, but not when they were being ambushed like this.
Neo nodded his head. "Boss, we need to treat your feet."
"Rei, you too," Kevin glanced towards Kanae's feet. It was bleeding quite badly as she got shot from the pieces of bullets before.
Kanae shook her head. She turned her body.
"Don't be ridiculous, you'll be dead if we don't treat you!"
As Neo attempted to catch Kanae, she already moved away from them. Her swift movement would make them question whether she was wounded or not. There was simply no sign of her being wounded. Neo's expression turned grim. Even when Rei was wounded hard, he could not catch this person.
"Don't touch him," Tommy panted as he dragged his tired body. He glanced at Kanae. "Can you return back first?"
