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.

Fiancée Candidate?
Seeing the dark iris, he got the feeling that he had seen it somewhere before. It felt really familiar to him.
Has he met with her before?
"Don't tell me that you fall for her, brat."
Kevin immediately shifted his gaze to his uncle. "It seems that you have a new hobby of spouting nonsense, Uncle."
Patrick just shrugged. He would definitely not admit that he just loved to tease the two of them. After all, it was a great pleasure for him to see his nephew and daughter have their expression perturbed. Everyone else was less interesting compared to these two.
Besides, they would never try to seriously kill him if he did go overboard.
When his mind reached this point, Patrick revealed a wicked yet playful smile. Oh boy. He truly wanted to make a prank for these two.
Neo shuddered when he saw Patrick's smile. "Boss! Elder Patrick must be planning something evil again!"
"How rude! I'll never plan something evil!"
