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.

Mike’s Birthday (2)
"It's an amazing movie!" Misae exclaimed excitedly after they exited the cinema. As a girl who loved romantic stories, she loved such movies very much.
Mike smiled warmly. Truthfully, he spent half of the movie watching Misae's expressions. She changed expressions rapidly in response to the plot, and it was extremely cute in his opinion. If she asked him about the content of the film… Well, he would just redirect the conversation.
"I'm glad that you like it."
Misae grinned. "But this is your birthday, so let's do something that you like too."
If Mike had to say what he liked to do, he could only list training at the very top. Unfortunately, it was not something he could possibly do with someone like Misae. Considering the girl's physical abilities, it was close to impossible for her to train with him.
His eyes landed on the café near the cinema. "Are you hungry?"
"I am. What about you?"
