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.

Master Ren and Roy’s Death
CLANG!
Before the sword could reach Jay, another sword had blocked it. Roy didn't seem to be surprised. He looked at the old man who blocked it with a sneer.
"Coming to save your favorite young master again, Master Ren?"
Master Ren's face was grim. From the sheer force that he experienced right now, he could guess that Roy has grown far stronger than before. It was a bit too much for his old body to handle, so he knew that if he prolonged the fight, he would surely lose.
Swinging his sword, Master Ren forced Roy back. Roy's eyes showed the trace of surprise, but he regained his composure and readied his stance once again.
The two men were staring at one another. They knew that the other party was incredibly strong, so they couldn't waste time in unnecessary fights. It would be a truly hellish battle.
