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.

Start of the Battle (2)
Outside the gate, the soldiers and police officers were waiting. They had called Ferdinand to get out, but so far, there was no response from people in Lima School.
"Sir, there's no one answering."
"I know," the leader replied.
"Sir, there are a group of people coming here. They seem to be gangster," one of the soldiers reported.
The leader frowned. He knew that Kevin had called the reinforcement from the street, but he didn't know the exact amount of people they called. He glanced sideways. "How many people?"
"There seem to be hundreds or thousands," the soldier answered.
Hearing the answer, the leader nodded his head. He tried not to think too much about the power behind Kevin Kalin as he focused his attention back to the barrier before him. Frown appeared on his forehead when he saw a man walking leisurely to them.
"Freeze!"
"Don't move from your place!"
