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.

The Clash between Two Geniuses
"We come here because in this gathering, we'll decide who will be the clan head," Neo spoke out. "All hidden clan heads, please gather in the middle as they voice out their opinion."
The men gathered in the middle, leaving the youngster on the side. Seeing their massive number, Kanae was rather stunned. If each of them was experts, they would surely able to overrun the entire city with their number and power.
"There are more than 20 people there," Shiro commented.
"There are around 30 to 40 hidden clans in Ryukalin Clan as the result of several generations' separation," Jason informed. "Not all of them are experts, but most of them have the same skill as Tom, at the very least."
Tommy was looking at the group of men in front of him rather speechlessly. If each of them has the same power as him, it will be a death sentence if he tried to fight with them. Not to mention, there might be those with higher power hidden among them.
