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.

Laura’s Decision
"I'll give my order now," Laura closed the book as she looked towards the servants coldly.
They were looking towards Laura nervously. Somehow, the sight of this young lady was too similar with that of a judge, ready to send them to their rightful place with mere words.
Laura pointed to the numerous items in the hall. "Sell them all in an appropriate price."
The servants were stunned to hear Laura's decision. For decades, the one who inherited this place would always decorate this place up to their like, but never they tried to sell them all. After all, the prince of all of them would reach hundreds or even thousands of billions.
One of the maids stepped up. "Miss, this is all the property of Nali Family. You can't sell them all just like that."
Laura looked towards the maid coldly. "Are you the one who's the family head or me? If I say sell to them all, then you should do as I say."
"I'm the head of the maid here," the maid frowned.
