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.

"Sis, you don't have to pick me up," Laura looked towards her sister with a frown. She was still staying in the inn while Kanae stayed at her house. No matter what, Kanae didn't allow Laura to go there, so this little girl obediently stayed here.
"I'm not going to let you walk to school by yourself. Let's go," Kanae answered. She yawned as she barely had any sleep last night. Her training with Master Rudy always lasted from 9 PM to 1 AM. Those four hours of the day was the time she experienced hell. As a result, she barely had any sleep last night.
