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.

"It's nice to see you again, Kevin," Jason replied calmly. Although the people here respected Kevin, he still has his status, so he didn't mind calling the man's name directly. There would be no one who could berate him.
Kevin nodded and turned his head at Taro. "Why are you taking him here?"
Taro glanced up and smiled weakly. "He's the only one who can help me and I believe that you should know that too, right?"
The explanation from Taro was rather vague, but Kevin understood perfectly what Taro meant. He waved his hand. "Call James here."
"Yes, Boss."
As one of his men ran out, Kevin sat down on his chair. His gaze locked to the two men in front of him. "You should never tell anyone about this, Jason."
"I know."
