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.

New Family
After walking out of the hospital, Kanae headed back home. Kanae picked up the bag that she had prepared before. The content of the bag was everything she needed, such as clothes and some daily necessities. She had thought of leaving everything in Laura's hand before, but never did she imagine that it would come this fast.
'I'll miss everything here.'
Taking another glance at her room, Kanae smiled wryly. Once again, she would be leaving this place and this time, she knew that she would not return again. In the future, she would have a different place to live, so this place would be nothing but memories for her.
Kanae stepped out of the room. She looked towards the guards not far from her and pulled out a paper.
"Here's your instruction in this house. Don't let anyone harm the young lady."
"Yes, Miss."
"You're dismissed."
