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.

Meeting Again
It took several minutes for the students to disperse, leaving only a handful of students left there. Jason sighed to himself. Originally, he didn't want to interfere, but he didn't really have any other choice because he didn't have the time to stay here all day. He had an important appointment not long after this.
"Brother Jason," Kanae called.
Jason turned around. He was surprised to see both Kanae and Kevin in this place. "Kanae, Kevin, are you two planning to enroll in Lima School?"
Kanae smiled wryly. "As you can see, we're wearing the school's uniform."
"Are you enrolling here too?" Kevin asked.
"Nope. I'm just coming as Wells Family's representative. They hope for me to attend for the sake of the image during this event," Jason smiled wryly. If not because his father asked him to come, he would never step his foot here. The experience that he had in this place was already more than enough to make him want to go far away from this place.
