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.

Chaos in Ryukalin Clan
The rain only stopped when it was morning. As the sun rose from the horizon, the search parties also stopped searching for the fallen members. They didn't manage to find anyone who still alive and even Patrick has disappeared.
"Sir Megara, the ship is ready," one of the elders informed.
"I'll return back to the main island," Megara said. He looked at the elders before him. "Who wants to follow me?"
The elders were looking at one another. Although Megara said that he wanted to return back to ask for help, they doubted that Megara would really do that. Among the elders who managed to survive, only three of them were on Megara's side.
The three of them stayed silent as Megara had instructed them to make sure that Patrick couldn't return back to the main island. Before Megara gained the complete control of the clan, they couldn't allow anyone to interfere.
