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.

End of the Training
Jason's Private Training Villa
Kanae and Jason sparred countless times during the time Tommy was away. Jason would stay here the entire day today before going back tomorrow morning because he had a meeting. It was also the time he would take Tommy back here to train with them.
"You should wear all the weights when you're fighting with me," Jason gave her another batch of weights.
Kanae stared at them in bewilderment. "Do you want me to die out of exhaustion? It's already quite heavy with the weights you gave me previously."
"Your body already adapted to them."
"It's not my fault," Kanae pouted.
Jason stretched his body. "There are some missions for Fiore Group. Do you want to accept them?"
"Only Shiro will do the jobs. I still don't have enough training."
"Let's see how long you can hold on."
"Don't cheat. Use your weights too."
