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.

Jealousy
Kale Company
Time passed swiftly as Kanae divided her time to do four things: studying in school, working in the office, completing missions as part of Fiore Group, and training under Master Rudy's abuse. Every day was tiring for Kanae, yet her body has gotten used to her routine that she barely paid any attention to the discomfort.
"President, here's today's report," Kanae passed the document to Kevin.
Taking the document, Kevin read through it. There was not much that they had to do today. Most of the tasks were already finished. It was one of the rare days that the people in the company could be so relaxed.
"All of today's work is finished," Kevin said calmly.
"Yes, good work today, President," Kanae grinned.
Kevin leaned back on his chair. "You should just call me by my name. Why are you still using 'president?'"
