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.

Dispute over the Seat

As Kanae was still shocked by the sudden revelation, Alice walked forward with a gentle smile on her face. She looked towards Kevin respectfully and bowed down formally.

"Alice greets the Clan Head."

Kevin looked towards Alice. "Do you have any disagreement with the arrangement?"

"There's none, Clan Head," Alice answered. Her demeanor was calm and collected as if she truly wanted this to happen from the very beginning.

Seeing his daughter's response, Nico was very satisfied. This would be the time he could get higher position with his daughter being Kevin's fiancée. In addition, if he helped Kevin through this dark moment, it would be very beneficial when Kevin won.

In a way, this was a bet.
