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.

Is This a Date?
On the back, Neo was looking towards the two of them while rolling his eyes. Their atmosphere to each other was too much for him to bear. He knew that the last time they met personally was over three months ago, but was there any need for them to exude that kind of atmosphere?
And what was wrong with this girl's head to say those words?
He couldn't bear seeing the difference in these two. Can't you just return back to the usual cold and workaholic self?
Turning his body around, he looked towards the window facing outside. The sky today was very clear. It would be better for him to watch them rather than hearing these two's conversation. His brain wouldn't be able to take it if he had to listen to them.
Kanae smiled a bit awkwardly. She had just realized how her words could be interpreted in many ways. Honestly, what she missed the most was seeing his smile because she hadn't seen it for a long time. During her time as Rei, he never smiled at her.
