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.

Helping Each Other
After the meeting had ended, Ivan felt dissatisfied because Wells Family Head didn't do anything. He was hoping that something big would happen, such as Jason lost his position. However, the dim reaction caused him to feel disheartened.
"Young Master Ivan, the preparation has been complete," one of his men reported politely.
Ivan nodded his head. Since the Wells Family Head didn't want to make any move, he would do it by himself. It would be far better for him to take care of the things by himself.
"Call the media, I have important news to make."
"Yes, Young Master."
Ivan rubbed his chin as he thought about his decision. It wouldn't be hard for him to make a move. All these times, he had cut off Jason's business and never let the young man did anything. With the businesses were handled back by the elders for the time being, it was the time for him to start his movement.
