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.

Laura's Sweet Company
"Sis is taking a long time for her trip this time," Laura complained as she arranged the paper on her desk. This was the sweet company they owned under Kanae's name. As the one in charge, she spent most of her time here.
Kanae told her that she was going on a trip with her friends. Laura was not sure what kind of trip Kanae had, but the later didn't allow her to come along. She had to stay behind and took care of the business matter.
In front of her, Jason laughed lightly. "Kanae is usually very busy."
"You're busy too," Laura pointed to Jason. "But you still spare some time to come here."
Jason smiled in response. He only came here because of Kanae's request to accompany Laura and helped them expand the business. As this business has only started out, there were still a lot of things they needed to take care of. Both Laura and Kanae were rather inexperienced, so he stepped in to help out.
