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.

Night Conversation
Gathering information was not that hard for Kanae. It didn't take her a long time before she had finished gathering information about the families that have been dealing with Wells Family through Ivan.
One name stood out the most.
"Alan," Kanae murmured as she looked at the document in her hand. She didn't expect that the friend she had from school would have some dealing with Wells Family too. Should she expect this since Alan's family was quite rich?
Playing with the document on her hand, she sighed to herself. To be honest, she didn't expect to get a friend in Lima School. Her original intention was staying there for a short time to gather information before leaving. The meeting with Alan was nothing but coincidence.
'Let's pay him a short visit.'
Even though she was not that close with Alan, he could be considered as her friend too. Kanae headed back to her room and changed her clothes swiftly before making her way towards Alan's house.
