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.

After the gathering had been over, Frank was practically lifeless. He was starting to get out from the big picture of the Nali Family. The loss of his daughter caused him to be pushed back to the background without much importance anymore. After the successor was ready, would they kick him out?
'No! I will not let them!'
He is the family head of the Nali Family. He would not let anyone take this position from him. Only his daughter could, but she was no longer here. The sense of loss caused him to feel rather annoyed and irritated. He wished for nothing but having his daughter here, so she could replace him.
Loitering around his own place, he was not sure about what he should do anymore. He didn't even know who killed his daughter as it was ever so mysterious. If it was possible, he wished to torture the killer so badly that he or she wished that they were never born.
"Master," one of the servants called.
"Leave me alone," Frank bellowed.
