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.

Car Battle
Patrick's face changed when he heard the sound of the gun. He could block it with his spear, but it would show these two representatives that this city was not save.
'Damn it!'
His hand was about to move his metal spear when he noticed that there was already someone standing between the car and the direction of the bullet. That person moved his hand forward, cutting the bullet like it was nothing. Right after that, she caught the pieces and acted like nothing had happened.
Her action didn't surprise Patrick, but her appearance did. Well, she wore a normal orange shirt and black pants, but she wore a bright red bandana on her head. In addition, her braids were given ribbon at the end, making her look like a child.
"Rei, didn't I tell you that you're not allowed to go far away?"
"Big brother, I'm just playing with the ball."
